[quote="CANADIANPARROTHEAD"]By the looks at ebay some of the shows are expensive........
I wonder why Jimmy has'nt come up with a better plan to sell tickets to the fans......
Jimmy and his management company do have a plan for fans. It's called joining your local Parrot Head club, pay your dues, give back to this planet and the people on it by doing some great service work in your communities. The Parrot Head Clubs are allocated 300 tickets per concert that they pay for and the clubs in turn sell them to their deserving members. Those who join clubs just to get tickets and do nothing else, don't get tickets.

Hey...good luck with the tickets. I hope it works out for you. I was one of the fortunate ones that got tickets. I am looking forward to the show.
However, one thing that has worked for me in the past is wait in line at the box office (around 5PM) and ask if any tickets have been released. Usually, depending on the set up of spot lights and soundboard etc., the venue will have a number of tickets to sell at the last minute. It has worked for me twice at Great Woods and I had decent indoor seats.
The only problem is you have to stay somewhat sober enough to get and pay for the tickets...but once you get them go nuts...anyway that's why funnel's were invented...LOL
Good Luck!

Are you flirting all ovet these threads???Come To The Moon wrote:Howdy!!
Great idea CANADIANPARROTHEAD!!
I didn't have any luck on Saturday at all. I personally missed out on Nissan and Merriweather tickets in line by about 13 people. I also never wasn't able to connect on the phone for Mansfield. Luckily a friend of mine was able to get Nissan tickets but I still don't have Merriweather or the all coveted Mansfield. I only need two but it doesn't look good at this point.
Good luck getting tickets from friends!!
I can score for GW. Been there 3 times. I have experience you know.
