Alpine tickets....How did you do?

Post by ShrimperDan »

Was wondering how everyone did at time of sale.....NOT presale or auction. Since it sold out in less than 6 min.

There are none in the pavilion area. The closest ones to the pavilion are real close to the top of 201. The ones on the 203 side are a further up.
Is it day?

I squeezed in with my four law seats online. I set another computer up at 10:04 and tried to get tickets and it came back with no tickets available! That is a quick 35,000 tickets! (well at least 25,000 I would think after the corporate sponsors and season ticket scalpers)

Hope others had luck this morning!

Got 2 in section 203 row x
and 2 more in 203 row YY.
I will probably be selling the YY tickets.
Check the ticket exchange later and I will list them there.

I am hoping to get tickets the day of the show. Over the last couple years I have consumed extra tickets, so that will not happen this year. I have seen too many people selling them the day of the show, so goodbye "Ticketbastard".

I'll be sitting with you'll. I got 6 in sect 201 thru live nation. Could have got more but limit you to 6. I also had tickmaster on another computer and it froze up. First time buying thru live nation and much better than ticketmaster IMO

8 lawn Alpine, 6 lawn Chicago-Tinley...2 computers going at once is the way to go. I really didn't think it was that tough a pull.

It's hard to beat being there, but there is always RM and easy bathroom access.

Live nation seems to be the way to go. Ticketmaster was sold out in a matter of minutes, but Live Nation was bringing up tickets for about 1/2 hour!

I scored 4 in Section 203 row UU. I am leary of the seats, but excited b/c I won't have to worry about using Ebay or worrying day of show.

PS I went thru Ticketmaster
