So.... the ticketing one is used when you're in a mad rush to order nonexistent tickets?

Nope - Had to pull that one off another site I visit. Seemed to fit the bill!

Works for me as long as we include it for TicketBastard too!! Seems like it's time for some company that knows what they are doing to step into the Live Ticket Sales market. These two have proved that they sure can't provide the needed services!!

... I noticed that Live Nation has disabled their online help feature too.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

Just playing around and here's what I get. Lovely,wish i could do MY job this way! I logged back out so i wouldn't take up queue space from someone really trying to buy tickets.

You have been placed in a temporary waiting room and will be randomly placed in a queue to continue.
:evil: :evil:

And what the h*ll does "RANDOMLY" placed in a queue mean? Does that mean NOT in ORDER of when you logged in?????

Showing no tickets left. First time I've ever been shut out. Thanks Live Nation.

I imagine I got close to 100 error messages on my orders before it finally showed as sold out.

What short memories we all have. The ticket market imploded last year, remember? Tickets were available for less than face value all over the place. You couldn't *give away* lawn tickets at most shows right up to the day of the show.

Chill. Unless you're really angling for front rows, you'll have your choice of tickets at reasonable (even below *face value*) if you just wait.
