Generally ticketmaster opens up more seats day of the show or before due to bad credit card orders and such. I have got as close as 4 row day of show.
Another way is wait outside the venue till about 10 minutes prior to show. Brokers...scalpers etc, will be unloading what they have left very cheap. The $150.00 seats for Tampa 4/22 were being had for 40 bucks each at the corner outside of the St. Pete Times Forum wednesday. I had an extra and couldn't even give it away...although I let someone have the seat.
