Even after it tells you no seats are available, things come up after a short while as credit cards begin to get rejected, and people reject seats.

Bad day for internet issues, but everything turned out OK. At first both Mrs. Chip & I were shut out of anything, even singles. Kept trying, and I was able to get two in sec. 207, row SS. Meanwhile, Carol pulled up two in 207, row TT. THANK YOU, CAROL! [smilie=battingeyes.gif]

I have a sick feeling. We were shut out as I had to quit trying about 10:25. Now that I am home for lunch and seeing that there was availability later I am sick! I tried a little at ticketmaster now but with no luck.So I guess I will post on the tix needed sight and hope we can find help from a fellow BNer again. We are loking for 2 and looking forward to Chicago again this year as in the past. Still have a room!
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane.

I got 6 lawn for Tinley. Some, if not most of our group will be there, it depends on how others did getting tickets. Our group is usually about 20-30, depending on tickets, vacations, wedding, etc.

See y'all at the Holiday Inn and/or the concert.

Sis and I may want to come up to Chicago, but I didn't go for tickets due to some complications right now.

I so want to go to a show with y'all and a baseball game! :wink: :)
I would be more than willing to hold the tickets if you have some idea when you will know.

I do also have 4 for that Friday Cubs game (though it would mean telling a friend and her daughter that they can't go).
We won't know until much farther down the road, but if the tickets aren't sold later, keep me in mind for throwing a trip together.

I'm sure the reserved tickets for TP will be primo!

It won't be like last time, however-I'm just driving in on Saturday morning and back home on Sunday morning.
We'll still have fun at the concert.

I used to live in Tinley Park until 7 years ago when I moved to NC.

That part of town I always thought of as a little bit borderline for comfort-safety, and never had any need to go there, or even get off of I80/294! :lol: Maybe it's different now.

But since all the places are sold out near the venue, I am gonna look in the direction somewhere between north and west.

Good for you.
I could have grabbed a single in 105 U (obstructed....?) but still haven't made up my mind about the road trip... Singles aren't too hard to find, anyway, and I know I would not be Alone!
