Thats why I'm just going to stick to the internet. I have always had good luck before, but if i get shut out, the ticket exchange here has never failed me.
i agree with you, internet and if that doesn't work the exchange.

I'm coming into work and set up 10 computers, they are all right next to each other, so hopefully some of them can bust through

Thanks! I am hoping that my recent string of luck will continue tomorrow and if it does I may even have some extras for the Ticket Exchange but if I fail I am hoping other people will have some extras to sell :wink:

If I come up with any extra's I'll be sure to let you know... I'll probably post it in one of the great woods threads first that way regulars get first crack at em before the lurkers/first time posters get a chance.. What seats are you shootin' for? I'm going for whatever I can get! :D

Well I am a younin' Parrothead. My first concert was about 3 years ago and I have gone to every Boston area show since then. But for all of these shows I have either had lawn seats or reserved seats way up in the balcony. So this year I am definitly shottin' for the best seats possible. Hopefully I can manage to find some in sect. 1, 2 or 3. I know it will be tough but maybe if I get only a single seats I can get one up close.

I just wish all the darn ticket agencies (i.e. AceTicket) wouldnt scrounge up all the good seats :evil:

Good luck! I'll keep my phins crossed for ya!! :D I had second row last year in Vegas and had front row seats for Fenway (way off to the side though) but ended up being dead center and 8 rows back (snuck past security)... Nothing like sitting up close.. everyone should get to experience it at least once.. And hey, if you get an extra up close one remember me :P

OK. I am off to bed and then up early for Mission: Buffett Tickets. As of now my plan is:

Pick up my bud and go to the Cambridge Filene's. Have each of us get lottery tickets that are far apart from each other to double our chances. Then leave Filene's for a while and come back and hopefully the guy will forget us and give us more tickets. Then after that I am going to run back to my house (which is 3 blocks from the ticketmaster) and use 2 computers and 2 phones to try and get tickets. Hopefully my buddy gets a good pick from the lottery ticket drawing and we can get as many tickets as possible.

Good luck to everyone!!!!

I'm not going to GW this year but if anyone needs help getting tickets, let me know. I had to come to the office today so I can use the firm's high speed connection instead of my painfully slow dial up at home.
