Well.....Yes. Although if you notice my post in the "Ticket Buying Stories" thread it's not much of a challenge to score this year.
Phriend actually purchased yesterday during presale, got......not so good seats. Fortunately was able to contact TicketBastard & exchanged for mucho better seats!
Would advise anyone who purchased yesterday to check out current availability & see if that may be an option for them.

Glad to hear someone else noticed the presale seats were not that good.
Not to mention they were Platinum :evil:
I'll definitely keep my eye out for something 1st or 2nd row but I'm content with what I have.

I also wonder about many of the same things you posted in Ticket Buying.

FYI, for those fully vaxxed, it looks like you'll need to bring your physical card with you. I reached out to Star Lake and asked if a picture of my card on my phone would be enough and they said no, need the physical card. Even though Pine Knob isn't owned by Live Nation like Star Lake, I believe they have the same requirements/policies.

Better to be safe than sorry, I don't want to see anyone travel there and forget their card, or assume a picture of it will do.

Looks like it will just be 3 of us this year. Not sure how much effort we're putting into tailgating setup. We've been pretty dedicated at setting up in the oasis (grassy area) but with it not being a mid summer show not expecting the pavement to be cooking this year. It is nice to have the extra elbow room of the oasis though. Weather may dictate.

Pretty much whole upper pavilion still open. Have a feeling it will be available come show day. May be available for upgrade if you have an interest MJ. Maybe even a Groupon promotion. [smilie=noeyedear-shrugging.gif] I can keep you in the loop if you like. 8)

Thanks for the heads up. I just did the email exchange process. We are in nosebleeds but now in the pavilion. Looking forward to next Thursday :)

The way it’s looking you’ll be able to shuffle down another 10 rows once the show gets rolling...

The dead show last week was packed ...empty seats here or there in the pavilion bit felt like a full house....

Heads up the entry is facked up and will take awhile.

Was shocked at the number of people with "negative test" paperwork but not vaccine cards....very disappointing they would go to that much trouble for a test instead of just getting the shot.

Seems like alot of parrothead aren't as loyal as one would seem with the ticket numbers available....

We on second look have lawns....with the reduced price might have to look into pavilion upgrades..

Ps.....the dead show was great and was good to feel normal for a night, even bought a show shirt which I haven't done in 20 years

I was very impressed with how Red Rocks handled the neg test/card check. They had people at the bottom entrance of the venue checking & I thought the line went very quickly both nights.

If anyone isn't stalking TM, there are some good seats popping up. I swapped row BB for row Q and just swapped those for Row H.

I wonder when the tailgating will start. I've got to decide if I'm taking a 1/2 day off school or not. The weather looks like it should be decent.
