I guess that I should have waited before ragging about getting shut out. Still, scalpers got alot of seats. Go to the web sites, prices for any budget. Kidneys optional.

I have been reading posts on this website for a while now, and figured now would be the best time to get a profile. I was fortunate enough to get 6 to Alpine on the lawn, as well as 2 on the Lawn at Tinley Park. I am more than excited as this will now be concert numbers 7 and 8, and somehow got through on Ticketmaster this morning. Last year was an Ebay year, but thankfully not this time. I look forward to posting more and hopefully seeing you all at the shows! :D

Shut out at Alpine, but still plan to find tickets and go (or go and find tickets). May try the Volcano Express package.

wow - nice pull
I usually do okay if I only go for a single-best available.
I got one for Tinley Park also. Not great, but still in the lower pavillion, albeit, off to the side.
Bottom line-I'M GOING! :D

Was shut out in the beginning at TM then tried about an hour after the sale started and was able to get some pavillion single seats, I played around with 2 browsers and eventhough the tickets are not side by side, I got some that have the rows together and within a couple of seats.

Does anyone know if it is true that Ticketmaster will release more tickets for the AV show as it gets closer? I guess I am just wondering if it is a done deal that I am not going or is there still hope? Sounds like I am whining huh? Just never been shut out before.

I went to Live nation.com and got two pavillion tickets in the middle of section 201. Also pulled up some lawn tickets. If you missed out keep the faith and keep phishing, there are still face value tickets out there.

I have heard that some phans have gotten tickets days after it was "sold out" There is a ticket limit, and some phans got greedy. Some had a bad credit card. Keep trying You never know

I bought the tickets around 11:00 am. I just kept logging in and mostly got sold out but I did pull up 2 sets of lawn tickets but turned them back. Then at 11:00 I did get the pavillion tickets. I say just keep trying as I think these are from credit card denials. Just got lucky!!!

Getting ready for nissan sale friday and need a total of 12. Can you order from tm and live nation without having tickets cancelled? Would I need two different cards to do this if it is possible?
