With this BOOMING ecomony, Smaybe it's a blessing that some of us didn't get tickets. 2 Years ago I did'nt get tickets. I went and gave some of the money that I would have spent to see Jimmy and gave it to planned parenthood. Then I had a party in my back yard with RM blasting. No lone to the washroom and no $8.00 beers. ( they were $4.00 ea) But they were COLD!!!!! Watch out because the scalpers have to sell them. Smaybe at a loss!!!!!!!!

Live Nation seems to have fixed their (Alpine) problems and come online. Close and re-open your browsers.

Got my 6 lawn at 10:45AM.

Seem to be sold out of lawn suddenly, but Pavillion are still available.

For all the high prices, It should be all you can drink. Smaybe this year I'll give some of my money to the " George H. Bush Library"

Either that or just give it to China since they have the credit card for Iraq.

My tickets were $304.55 but I did regular mail. Got them thru live nation, tired thru TM. Much more difficult than last year.

Well, I guess I got really lucky. Most of our group got in. We only go for Lawn seats and I might have some extras. We ended up with 26.

I just need to figure out how many we really need.

Oh yeah, forgot to add that my tickets were for Indy. And yeah, it looks like it was sold out at 10:04.

Got 4 sweet seats for Saturday Chicago and will go scalp on Thursday for tix under face.

I was on TM @ 10 AM and when my transaction processed @ 10:01 AM, I was offered LAWN seating @ INDY. Something has to be done about this system and these F#$!ING Ticket brokers! I am fed up having to pay $300+ for a decent ticket every single year. Is anybody with me?

I apologize if I am interpreting the author incorrectly, but it sounds like the author is chewing out brokers, but then is admitting paying brokers (why else would you be paying $300+ for a seat?)

Am I reading this wrong?

Shut out for the first time EVER!
I am usually the only one that gets tickets for sure.
I was logged in and ready to roll, but nothing available for Alpine or Indy.
YIKES!!!!

Agreed. They told us at first that tickets were $37 and $137. I figured they'd be just under $50.00 for lawn.
Then they told us that they were actually only $33/$133. Ended up OVER $50.00!!!!

56% "convenience" charge????

Oh well, at least I have tix.
