And, now that I think of it, it may have been Lindsey.
It's hit and miss but with FM--they like playing games with these sales and try to sell junk before the good stuff. And, if you look on Stub Hub for FM--Madison Square Garden is already on sale. The presale is only supposed to begin on 12/10. Yesterday, there were 155 tickets--some over $1000 each. Give me a break.
There is a big stink over the Garden and the Sandy Hurricane concert and how many tickets are on the broker's sites (some over $50,000 per ticket...WHAT?????) All purchased "legitimately" through ticketmaster? Not by a long shot (IMO). I think MSG is completely shady and I'm sure other venues are as well. But, with MSG--I've been able to get front row (I believe 3 times) at nearly the last minute (1 week or less prior to the show).

Hmm, yeah I've never been to the Garden for a concert, but this is making me even more weary than I was to begin with. May just stick with Philadelphia.
