I got through on the phone but by the time the guy got around to getting me my tickets they were sold out. My friend got through on the phone, once for 6 tickets and once for 1 ticket. Guess I'll be begging for tickets for the next four months.

I will know in a day or two, but I may have a couple extras..... I will let you know ASAP

I scored 2 lawn tix so I'll be there. Don't know if the wife will be able to go, if not I'll have an extra. Won't know for sure until we're closer to the date of the show.

We got 12 lawn tickets today, with 10 people trying we only got two orders thru online so atleast 12 of us are going. Look for Red Beard and the giant Beach Chair in the Lot.

I just pulled up 2 pavilion seats (although they are way in back, Sec 4 not under roof). Threw them back; so go get 'em if you want.

It was the same password I used last time! So I went over the time
limit and lost my tickets. Then I went back in and got section 5 pavilion
WAY BACK in row kk. I'm practically on the lawn any but $100 more
a ticket . Oh well at least I got tickets. So it's off to Philly and Pittsburgh.

Hi there Big John...what number are your seats? I'm sec 5 row jj seats 31 & 32. Should be somewhere right in front of ya!
Sec 5 KK 20 and 21. I'll bring the cigars.

FYI.... keep trying throughout the day... what happens if the TM sees that the same person (address, credit card, name) has purchased more than 6, they could cancel your order....

I know people who had got tickets hours after it was sold out...Even trying at the wee hours of the morning as well.

GOOD LUCK!

Hey there stranger!

Got two lawn tickets! Had to move one of the dsl lines at work for the cause (meaning only I had access) but I got my tickets and a parking pass. Now hopefully Jo won't go into labor that day. Did I mention the 22nd is her due date?!?! But she's a trooper and still wants to go.

Add Jo and I to the list please!

Ebay has pages and pages of tickets for Post Gazette for sale. At least I got tickets. I have a feeling my wife and I will be in the lawn if we want to be together.

I have an extra pavilion ticket if anyone is looking. I am asking what I paid for it.

I'll be making the trip from Yorkville, OH for my 7th straight year. Will be passing by all you folks in Weirton on Route 22 so I'll be sure to honk

Bringing my girlfriend who is a Buffett virgin. She's taking me to Petty in exchange(where I'm the virgin). Should be a blast!

Hoping to be there!

Somewhere in the midst of working, being sick, and dealing with 2 sick toddlers I completely missed this onsale! First time since 1994 that I missed one!

But where there's a will, there's a way, right?

Feel free to tell me what a bad parrothead I am!
