hey all- FYI our presale in CO was today and there were no floor seats

I got a seat one level up but I called after also and was told the floor seats were 1. being held back by the group for family/friends and 2. the rest would be onsale for the PUBLIC onsale

so there are no benefits to a presale IMO

I will try again next Monday to get a better seat and see if I can change mine out.

Thumbs down Prices for Dallas tickets on Stub Hub

Floor 11
Row S | Qty 2
$961.00

Floor 11
Row T | Qty 2
$961.00

Floor 11
Row N | Qty 2
$970.00

Floor 11
Row Q | Qty 2
$970.00

Floor 11
Row P | Qty 2
$978.00

Floor 11
Row M | Qty 2
$978.00

These prices are ridiculous (not even front row!), but it's the regular price of $149 that will be keeping me from seeing FM on this tour.

Same for Chicago..really disappointed that there are no real perks for presale buyers. Only the back half of floor seats were available. Which almost garauntee no view since there's no slope to the floor..also the maximum ticket price which should be exclusive for front floor tickets, were being offered for 100-200 level seats as well. More disappointment IMHO.

Hoping general sale on the 17th gets me good floor seats!

Anyone who is dumb enough to pay those prices, either has no sense, or too much money. In the case of the latter, they should send it all to me.

I tried the Anaheim CA presale today. Got nothing but junk and then pulled row 10, center section, floor. Threw them back cuz I want row 7 or less, center, and I'm sticking to that. I'll play Tickebastards waiting game. BALLS OF STEEL!!

That is ridiculous. So we don't get front row seats because of people who see them all the time.

Haha I told myself 10 or less! If I had pulled row 10, I definitely would have hesitated! Here's hoping for some better options later this week!

Crap, that's dedication! Haha I agree I would have hesitated. Goal is floor, first 10 rows and up!

I'm just curious - when you try on the 17th when the public onsale starts, do you just try to get online as soon as possible (10am or whatever it is for Chicago) and do Best Available and just try your luck? Just wondering if there's a trick to it or anything...

Pittsburgh venue has interactive map - you can see all tickets that are offered during amex pre-sale. on the floor, only sections 4, 5, and 6 are offered at this venue.

Well, that's that plan as of now that I am praying will work!

A few comments back mentioned they called and spoke to their venue, and a lot of the front floor sections were reserved for band fam, friends, etc. I'm just really hoping more are released on the 17th.

I'm thinking other people are planning on the same? Anyone..?

Ridiculous..ticketmaster offers "platinum seating" which below explains that tickets are not resale, but offer the "best options" at face value. Um for the front floor sections, face value is approx. $300-500 per ticket. WHAT?!

I just can't believe that THAT many people are willing to pay those prices!

It's like walking into a bank, when you've already seen the armed robbers enter before you.

I wouldn't pay a penny over $150 to see them, even with Christine. Okay, maybe $200, WITH Chris.
