Is it better to go to the Anaheim Pond box office or to the local Ticketmaster outlet on Monday morning, and how far ahead should a person go... last time bought tickets was up in Chico CA and was ONLY person buying tickets, so no problems... expect more competition and which is best to go to... Which place will be a better chance of getting seats, right AT the Pond or at the TM? Anybody know?
Last week it was as warm as Bridgetown here, but now it is cold again, about 70... California is awful chilly. Thanks for the help!!

if you go to the pond box office, there will not be a service chage for buying the tix there. good luck.
and remember to buy the limit. that way there will be fewer tix for the scalpers to get a hold of. yeah right.

No sorry was in Chico on way to Lassen Peak...
Now live near Pond, back in USA about 8 months, used to live in B'dos...will try Pond Box Office and just go over about 7 am or something... if the crowd looks too bad at that time, I will go to the local TM where they lottery you one hour before it opens... wish I had got the notification of the date of the concert earlier, got it the 21st and by the time I realized it, the Internet Advanced Sale which had been going on since 1/14 was already over... We don't know any people out here, our families are all on the e. coast or in Europe... who would I give extra tickets to? Could I be sure of selling them at face? "s a lotta money...

when does the Internet Advanced Sale happen? Someone mentioned that to me last week and they weren't sure how to go about finding that option..especially since TM didn't have posted concert data until the week of the show?

Actually , realtor told us about it... he is an extreme fan of another band and regularly uses it.
I simply put Jimmy Buffet Internet PreSale in my search engine and it brought up a site, I think it was called Buffet World (not Jimmy's own site, and this sounds like a subdivision, but, hey) and sure enough, through that site only there had been an advanced sale for a week, But I didn't get the BuffetNews notice of the concert until late the 21st and the pre sale ended by then. Per TM the way it works, is the site that has the advanced sale option gives you a code, and then you can enter that code to order tickets ahead. Have not actually used it... but realtor swears by it. Only works for internet purchases.
so now I gotta go stand in a line somewhere. Farmers Mkt time.. Ta.
