MSG tickets

Post by labatt1876 »

I cant believe how easy it was to get tickets for MSG. I was able to go back in a few times until I got seats that I wanted.

I wonder if it will even sell out

I was searching for good seats when the whole site went down. :(
Guess it wasn't good idea for Tmaster to sell Garden & AC tix @ the same time . :o

I too was suprised, I got my seat and there are still tickets available on the floor. I got a seat for $61.50 & I am happy with that, an hour later & great seats are still available.

Thanks for the sympathy but if I wasn't a seat snob, :roll: I would've had my seats. I'll try again later. 8)

I ended up going with the 200 Level, cost $150 each, but they are really good seats

I stand corrected. :-? The site didn't go down, Ticketbastard blocked me. :o I was searching for tix & I guess I threw too many bad seats back.
:x I wonder when I'll be able to get in again?

I got in with no wait at all, and pulled 2 in Section 5, row E. I was elated! Then my wife tells me we can't go because of a niece's graduation. So now I'm stuck with $433.90 in tickets I can't use, I'm sure someone will take them at cost, but it'll be a pain getting the deal done. I could not believe there was no wait at all.

PS, they are for cost on the BN trading board.

Tell your wife to represent you at the graduation, and you go to the concert with some buddies....problem solved. Your wife will let you back in the bedroom in a week or so, and you'll get a week of decent sleep.

As social events go, graduations are more boring than weddings!

MSG Flop

Post by finstothenorth »

Looks like a combination of things. High ticket prices, arena, Jones Beach timing, but Msg looks like a big flop. Nobody wants these seats! I can't get rid of my tickets unless I take a big loss. This sucks, I was hoping to sell them for a little profit & spend the excess in Vegas!...No such luck!
Any insight???

I just pulled sec 59 row K and I couldn't help myself - I hit confirm! These are the best seats I have ever gotten to a Buffett concert! I hate the $$$$ but I couldn't wait until August to see him in AC! Hubbys birthday is the 14th so it's a nice way to start off the weekend!
Ciao!
