How bizarre...!:confused:
How do they have the seat chartings for "the venues" when Fleetwood Mac have yet to announce the venue list?!?!?!
I'll be sure to purchase my tickets from them.:rolleyes:

seems this is just another ticket broker who seem to specialize in 'Mac tickets...
At least they're honest enough to list that tickets bought through their site will cost above face value...Brian J.

Ah, the greatest nemesis of the concert going fan - scalpers. I know the topic of concert tickets is going to come up about a thousand more times between now and next summer, but I advise <i>everyone</i> to do everything you can to not use a scalper. There are alot of ways around it now.
1) Buying tickets online is incredible. I haven't sat past the 10th row in over a year for a concert and paid face value. I'm lucky enough to use a T-1 line at work and head into the office the day tickets go on sale and snatch them up. If you don't have a fast connection, go to the library or a friend's house or something and try your luck that day. I haven't been disappointed yet.
2) <i>Keep checking online!</i> I waited until the day before the show this summer for Chris Isaak/Natalie Merchant tickets because I suddenly decided to go. I got a front row ticket at face value. It's risky to wait that long, but worth a shot. But usually about a week before the show, seats start opening up. Ticketmaster does suck, but it's the best tool we've got.
3) Hit the will call window the day of the show. Again, it's risky to wait, but they almost always have tickets at the last minute. If it doesn't work out, you can always end up using a scalper at the venue as a last resort.
I've used scalpers before...the seats are great, but the markup is ridiculous. These guys obviously have seen a market for us. We want our Mac seats close! And like Brian said, at least they are admitting it up front on their site. I won't be using them though.
(Their site still looks better than the official one! :laugh: )

their "Seating" chart, Which is basic information that can be found on ticketmaster.com (And even tickets.com for us concertgoers in the OKC area) for almost all of the arenas/concert halls/etc. which they have listed...
Mike B, I bought my Stevie ticket last August the day of the show and sat front row second section and I only payed face value (The ticket was only $6 cheaper than the Paul McCartney tickets...Mainly because the Stevie show was a "ticketmaster" promoted show and Macca is through tickets.com.)...I'm never going to buy tickets from a scalper/broker/etc

I agree about checking ticketmaster frequently. When Stevie played Las Vegas they had Golden Circle tickets for face value being sold the day before. Unfortunately I was already on the plane flying out to USA at that time:rolleyes:
