Pittsburgh??

Post by buddy777 »

My niece stood in line this morning (she was third in line) and they could not locate anything about Pittsburgh tickets going on sale. I noticed that a BUNCH of tickets were available on StubHub over the weekend. Was the date incorrect on the sale of tickets? She tried to get Cincinnati lawns for me, but they were all sold out in about 5 minutes! How do these people get all of the tickets prior to the true Parrotheads wanting them?

Ticketmaster shows the on-sale being at 10:00 this morning. There are seats available right now on ticketmaster.com in Section 5. I have no idea why they wouldn't have had any info though.

Did she go to a ticketmaster location in Ohio? If so, that's probably why they couldn't find the Pittsburgh concert. I guess there is a 15 minute hold on out of state ticket purchases.

FYI, check back often with Ticketmaster if you're in need of lawn tickets. We happened to find 4 available for purchase yesterday ( 3/18 ) around 5pm. Most likely the system is just releasing tickets from double orders, errors, etc.

Keep trying! :D
