WOW! Thanks Nicksfix!
 
That is SO helpful! Thanks for the presale password for the Dallas show. Hint-they didn't list one. So, I got up early and traipsed over to my boyfriend's house to use his computer to try and get tickets. How pointless! Maybe Nicksfix will have the password up in a couple of days WHEN IT WON'T MATTER!! Not that it'll do me any good now, but does anyone out there happen to know what the stupid password might be?? I've tried "golddust", "GOLDDUST", "HOB", and "stevie" and none of them worked (of course). Yep, I can already see what kind of unlucky, doomed experience getting tickets for this show is going to be. YAY! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

I feel your pain!!! I am also in Dallas and very upset. I emailed the guy at Nicks Fix and will let you know if he gets back to me.

with the Nokia in Grand Prairie being a much smaller venue, tickets for great seats will be much harder to obtain for the July 17 show...I wish nuthin' but good luck to those who attempt to purchase great seats for this show.

That's exactly what I'm afraid of. I've only been there once, for A Perfect Circle. The show was excellent but our seats were just terrible. It's yet another poorly designed venue. Unless you get in the 100s sections it's like squinting at a dot. I figured I'd end up having to take it up the ass and go to a scalper, but I stupidly thought I might avoid that this time (kinda BROKE) by "accidentally" getting some decent seats the regular way. AAAAARRRGGGHHHH!

(Thanks for the good luck wish, though. I need all the help I can get!)

MirrorInTheSky 06-10-2005 10:36 AM

I feel yer pain. I was calm, cool, and relaxed today thinking I knew for sure the password. WRONG! Now I'm freaking out. I'm in Austin, and I can't get tickets for Dallas OR Houston. What a crock.

jkmaletic 06-10-2005 10:37 AM

I feel bad for you guys. That sucks. :mad: I think this is the Nicksfix's first time being involved with presales though. Ticketmaster has been SO WEIRD with this tour, putting tickets on sale, then offsale, then onsale again. :rolleyes: It's probably hard to keep track of what the hell is going on. Try GOLDDUST1 as a password. It worked for a "radio presale" for San Diego. :shrug:

Good luck and hang in there.

It didn't work but THANK YOU anyway. I definitely appreciate your help and sympathy :) . On one hand I'm sorry others are having problems but on the other hand I'm glad I'm not the only one having a hard time here! Maybe we'll have better luck Monday for the regular on-sale date (HA!). *insert sobbing smilie here*

MirrorInTheSky 06-10-2005 10:52 AM

Ok, based on Nokia's website, you need the AllAccess Newsletter. I'm calling them now to see if they can give it to me over the phone, but it's busy. Will let you know.

stargazer99 06-10-2005 10:57 AM

I have the Radio Presale password....
 
... it's "mix". However, the best seats I've come up with so far are Section 205, Row EE.

THANK YOU! Yeah, the seats selections suck but at least it's something to go on! I'll keep trying! Thanks again :) .

Thank you!!!

Pisces Queen 06-10-2005 11:07 AM

How bad is section 202? It's in the center? Am I wasting money? I have yet to go to this venue. Any help would be appreciated!

MirrorInTheSky 06-10-2005 11:11 AM

LOL....we're probably all pulling up the same set of bad tickets right now...

Pisces Queen 06-10-2005 11:13 AM

This isa bunch of crap. I am thinking of just saying F*CK it and going to the Houston show. Alteast I know what I am dealing with.

Section 202 is not in the center, but doesn't look too, too bad (if you're not a spoiled beeyotch like me who wants ONLY the first 5 rows from the stage!). I would avoid the 400 sections though as those seats are just TERRIBLE. Here is a seating chart of the venue:

strandinthewind 06-10-2005 11:18 AM

I have never has any luck in any pre sale. Every great seat (first five rows) I have ever gotten has been through a broker or obtained much closer to the date of the concert, sometimes the day of the concert. So, I do not bother with any presales anymore unless it is for some kind of huge show like Madonna or U2, which I know will sell out in a matter of minutes. Anyway - Food for Thought :cool:

Thanks ~ I meant to type section 204. I dont know what to do. I guess I will hold out and see what comes up later. Man I am bummed out. :distress:

estranged4life 06-10-2005 11:25 AM

I have good luck...

on pre-sale, Matter of fact I have never been to ANY concert in my lifetime where my seats were crap.

I pulled up Section 204 (Center to the stage) Row EE just moments ago, But I didnt purchase those tickets since I will more-than-likely be skipping this show.

:thumbsup: That is cool and lucky. If I had a nickel for every ****ty concert seat I've ever had, I wouldn't have to worry about getting Stevie tickets the regular way. I'd just reach over to my pile of gold and grab a handful and head to the scalper! There's alot of folks I don't have to have great seats for, but I just can't deal with crummy Stevie tickets! She's my ONLY "scalper splurge" and it looks like this time will be no different. *SIGH*

stargazer99 06-10-2005 11:33 AM

I finally got seats in the 100's -- 105, row L. Far left, though. Hope I'm not straining my neck too bad!

I got these by specifically choosing 100 section. (Couldn't find anything in 100's doing Price Level 1, or best available). I went ahead and bought them. If something better comes along (at TM prices!) before the show, I'll sell these. But after shelling out money to brokers for two FM shows last year, I refuse to do the same for this concert!

Good luck everyone!

I've never bought tickets through a scalper or broker, I just have good luck when it comes to tickets.

Hell, It must've rubbed off on my wife that past March when we attended the Keith Urban show in OKC, She purchased tickets through the KU fanclub and we ending up in nearly the same spot I had for Fleetwood Mac in 2003, But it was cool that the fanclub saved us a ton of money since we were only billed $1 service fees per ticket ($36 ticket for a great show is a rarity nowadays!!!)

certainly you tried "Dreams" and "Rhiannon" and "Gypsy", yes??

:laugh: Well, I did just now! No luck. Actually, I think I've used up all my "rock and roll ticket luck" in the past. I "accidentally" got front row for SN on the Enchanted tour, and 3rd row for the Stones in '94. Oh well. It's still early in the game-I'm not giving up yet!

catinthedark 06-10-2005 12:03 PM

Don't fret yet!! I tried the presale for a couple of shows, got crap - and so took a chance with TM the day the tix went on sale to the public. I got waaaaay better that way. Good luck!

For what it's worth, Nokia just emailed me back, and the password is....

GOLD! Doh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But...it's still pulling up the same tix as the "mix" radio presale, so it's a moot point by now.

D'oh indeed. Thanks for the password, though. It doesn't cost anything to keep looking! Good luck to everyone else trying to get good seats for Dallas.

ELIUD 06-10-2005 12:22 PM

I got the password from a friend of mine - two days ago - I think she heard it on the radio. She said the password was "GOLD". I second guessed her and thought she meant "GOLDDUST"...long story short, the pw was "gold" so I checked and checked and finally came up with section 102 row R. It's the very back of that section probably row 17 and not the best but I'm okay with these for now since they're somewhere in the center. Plus I'm worried this place MAY sell out. Stevie can really fill up the Smirnoff Center which holds 19,000 people (7000 in the reserved +12000 lawn) and the Nokia Theatre only holds 6000.

Highwayman 06-10-2005 01:55 PM

Here in Atlanta, friends of mine got pretty good seats with the pre-sale password of "walden". Maybe that will work for other venues?

ELIUD 06-10-2005 02:02 PM

Thanks, I just tried it. "Walden" didn't work.

Kelly 06-10-2005 03:23 PM

I have never gotten very decent seats at any presale. I always look but I think fifth row was the best I ever pulled up. I have always gotten the best seats by waiting for a TM release. We got second row for Philly two weeks before the show. Look what is happening with Pittsburgh right now....third row came up today. Patience...it is hard but that is what it takes.

MirrorInTheSky 06-13-2005 11:40 AM

Anyone have luck this morning w/ tix?

wondergirl9847 06-13-2005 11:47 AM

Yep
 
I didn't know the password last Friday, so I said "Screw it...I'll try Monday." I have been pulling up 10th and 11th row today (Section 105, Rows J and K), but I'm short...I need to be within the first 5 rows. AAAAAND, I'm a spoiled brat. :laugh:

I am gonna keep trying and see what pops up. :shrug:

ETA: I just checked Ebay and some jerkwad is selling a 2nd row ticket (ONE ONLY) for 300 bucks. I thought it was for 2, which I figured wasn't that bad, but when I saw that was for ONE ticket...I about crapped. Whatevah dude. :mad:
