They sold out ALL tickets in about 20 minutes.
I was in line and before I could get to the counter, they were gone!

None of the 14 people I always go with, could get any.

By the way,

I need tickets!

I am sorry for those of you that did not get any tickets! We had great LUCK (I emphasize LUCK). We went to our local ticketmaster and they do a lottery system. There were close to 50 people there. My sister pulled number one and I pulled number two. We got great tickets but the difference of seats available in 30 seconds was unreal. From the time she got hers and I got mine. I wish you all the best of luck in finding tickets!

Good luck Billy the tickets were hard to come by.

My parents stood in line and along with friends at the same tickemaster outlet, they all got shut out. But not before they saw a local "scapler" in line with about 8 family members and they each got their max. Boy do mean ticket scalpers [color=ff0000][/color]!! Well luckily we got through on-line and did get some, hopefully between our entire group we got enough to cover those who missed out. My dad, a fairly new PH, even commented on how sad it is to see these scaplers scoop up all these tickets while the real fans walk away with nothing! Well, hope to still see you all at Alpine! Unfortunately it looks like some of us will have to keep those scalpers in business if we want to see the show!

I cant understand how 14 people cant get tickets. I was with five and we managed to get 50 tickets among us. You obviously did not plan for the tickets. If you want to see Bubba bad enough you will get tickets.

You have no idea how lucky you and the people you were with are to have tickets. We had people all over the Chicagoland area trying for tickets and came up with only lawn seats. This included one person who was FIRST in line and got in at 10 AM. She got 8 lawn seats, that's it. My concern is that SFX who runs Alpine and the World did no group seating. Where are all those seats?????

It had nothing to do with luck. I live in the Chicago land area as well and I drew lottery number 94. So what did I do. I started calling the ticketmaster in St. Louis. Got some of the tickets through them. A little planning you will get tickets.

I got my ticket online through TM at about 10:15, Sec. 201 Row AA (it came in the mail today!). I actually turned down 2 obstructed view seats further back, and could have bought more single tickets after purchasing mine. I have a cable modem hookup and I think that makes all the difference. Also, by requesting only 1 ticket, I think I got a "leftover" in a closer row. I will use this strategy in the future!

A1A,

No offence, but maybe I couldn't get tickets because 5 of your friends bought 50 tickets.
Do your 5 friends need 50 tickets?

If so, I'm glad you were able to get them.

If your going to insult me;

Don't be a F@#$ING Moron and not leave your name. Your gutless and perfect (so you think) Who looks like the bigger moron now. I am sorry to those I have personally offended by this remark (which should be nobody) And to you, well I hope you get over yourself and stop acting as if you are perfect. As shown by your remarks, you are not.

Thank You to all you real Parrot Heads out there for having adult conversations without insulting.

PHINS UP

A1A, the only time you might see me is when you take a look at the back of my head, I guarantee I will not be looking for some FIB Flatlander behind me. Enjoy the show jackass.

IF YOU REALLY WANT TICKETS YOU WILL BE PREPARED GOOD AND EARLY TO GET OUT ON THE DAY THEY GO ON SALE. SURE THERE ARE IMPERFECTIONS IN THE SYSTEM BUT THAT IS THE WAY LIFE IS. I WAS SECOND IN LINE AT THE PLACE I WAS AT AND GOT LAWN SEATS AND YOU KNOW WHAT I AM HAPPY AS A FISH SWIMMING IN A BOWL OF MARGARITAS.

I got 4 by calling a Mich ticketmaster 10 min before they went on sale and got my tickets at about 5 min after they went on sale! Can't wait!
