If you have a router, reset it. That usually takes care of the problem with TM

the only seats offered to day on Ticketmaster were the ones stubbhub doesn't have

Stevie is saying she guesses 50 ultimately. Not just because it always increases, but because she saw some pre-tour map or some such thing that indicated 50 dates, then a break, then Europe.

Leaving is one thing, but I don't see sitting as a sign of apathy. Michele

I understand there is a time to sit, but I guess you have to understand the context. It was practically every song. So, everyone around them, even in front of them were standing too, therefore they wouldn't have been able to see anything...not even the big screen really. It was the concert with Rod; if I recall, they stood up for a few more of his.

I stand when I have to in order to see, but otherwise I like to sit and look at them. I don't need to be up. I might get up if I don't think a song has support (Red Rover) or (SOTM if it is added), but I'm not getting up for GYOW or Stand Back unless it is the only way I can see the performers. I will sing along, but I have no desire to dance or clap or move around (because other people who move around inevitably block my view) with their giant heads, flailing arms and pushy bodies. I can do all of that at home. But I can't see into the performers' eyes at home, which is what I like to do. Michele

I am not impressed with the presale ticket results for Philly. Anybody have any luck buying tickets right before the show?

I've never come up with good tickets during a pre-sale, & this just boggles the mind:

PLATINUM SEATS Floor 2 Row 3 FLOOR 2 3 3-4 2 795.00 35.85 1661.70 In 2009, I was in Row 5, & I think it was Floor 2, & I never paid anything close to this & I wouldn't.

And in 2009, it was about two months before the show that I got those Row 5 tickets. It is definitely a wait & see with me.

I've tried it all. The most satisfied I've been for the seats & the money were when I called Ticketmaster on the phone during a general sale, pulled the seating chart up and went section by section until I was happy with the results. This was for Tom Petty & Bob Seger and I was not trying for floor seats.

Other than that, it's been brokers for me and I usually pay double face value per ticket -- plus the fees.

I hate it, but I do it because I want to be close.

With Ticketbastard .Good luck and don't hold your breath. I'd probably mentioned this on here before .I had great luck calling the box office at the Turning Stone casino for a Stevie show.On the first day of the sale I called the BO up around after 10am .No go the first couple of times but the third time was the winner.

As I grasp the phone as the lady said how many tix do you need.I said One please.She said ."do you know you can get great seats for one tix only.I said yes I know that.She looked up at her side and said I have one right in the front row.I almost died when she said that.I had her repeat it again to get it in my head.She said the tix are $100.I said WOW.I said I WANT THEM.

One other time I think it was Ticket tron at the time in 1989 at Stevie's cursing show at Lake Compounce here in CT.I scored 4th row seats about a month before the show.


FM tix always seems to be a nightmare to get good seats because of those inflated packages and what ever else

Stevie tix are easier to get good seats then FM shows.

I had good luck for good seats even with TM-LN on the last Stevie tour.

Good luck guys.....

I got tickets for the Pittsburgh show Thursday night on Ticketmaster with the presale. I was able to get floor 5 which is center about halfway back in row pp. I would have loved section 1, 2, or 3, but I think these will be pretty decent seats. Can't wait to see what kind of show they will put on.

In 2009, a lot of us got our center front floors two weeks before the show.

I tried 3 different presales but ended up getting row 18 on the floor via the regular on sale. They aren't soooo close, but I'm happy. It's funny that the concert is 5 months off

Now I'm just going to cross my fingers for...

Angel
Sisters of the Moon
Twisted
That's Alright
Walk a Thin Line
Save Me a Place
Tango in the Night
Blue Letter

If they play even one of those, I"ll be really happy
