Help! FM @ Mohegan Sun Uncasville CT

Hartbreakkid · #1 12-08-2008, 08:37 PM

There is no info on the web about tickets for this show...

I called Ticketmaster and they said tixs go on sale Dec 15th @ 10am...

Their web site doesn't say that yet though (even though other places have that Dec 15th date)

Has anyone else going to CT tried to get tickets?

To make it more confusing, the scalper sites have tickets:
http://www.stubhub.com/fleetwood-mac...4-2009-765902/
How do they have tickets to a show that hasn't gone on sale yet? Stubhub isn't the only one! ???

The tickets go on sale on the 15th. The Mohegan Sun usually doesn't list it on their site until just before the tickets go on sale. I emailed them last week and got all the details from the head of entertainment or where ever. They go on sale at 10am on the 15th, and will be $125 - $195

because ticketbastard and the scalpers have a deal....TM promises them tickets for a kickback and if they don't sell they get thrown into the 'pot' right before the show....

Mohegan Sun 1-888-226-7711

States tickets go on sale Dec 10th

Price ranges:

$125
$150
$175

I am pondering if to go see them. I had heard so many negatives about SYW, being Stevie was just "there" and since Christine is gone didnt' quite cut it.

One thing I am grateful, they are coming within 10 minutes of my home. Kind of hard not to go see them. This may be their last tour. Nobody is getting any younger!

The secondary ticketing people like Stubhub are owned by ebay.... so you can figure the rest out....

Ticketmaster has a secondary ticketing agent too that they own, it's called TicketsNow - where mere seconds into the sale TicketsNow will have the best seats at unreasonable prices... Basically Ticketmaster scalps the act's own tickets for them.

Well, I hear all kinds of RUMORS about many of the distributors.

As for Ticket Master, The Stevie concert we had here, I got an Isle seat very up close without ANY ticket scalping. Maybe it was a fluke maybe it's just how it works........but I got a close up seat and ENJOYED it without "scalper".

If you all have the Great Way of getting the best of the best---would you please share it with your fellow FM fans?

By the way, a group of us internet fans had gotten together at a predesignated agreed area before the concert and it was REALLY nice. Some made even stronger freindships and others just got to put a face to a name. I would enjoy to say HELLO to people whom share the love of FM and music. But that is just me?

How about you?

I am going to the connecticut show but cant get tickets until a few weeks and will take any ticket that is available when I have that extra money if the show is sold out before I can get extra money will try the new york or boston shows will be bummed if i can't get a ticket but at the high prices i dont think they will sell out right away. i got an email too from the vip services at mohegan sun stating the tickets are $125, $175 and $195 unless they changed there minds at the last minute about the price changes. but i do plan to attend this show

RoseGarden · #8 12-09-2008, 08:06 PM

well call for yourself the Mohegan Sun and get the detail yourself!!!!!

Willow maynot have to bend---just call the provided number

bucklind17 · #9 12-09-2008, 10:27 PM

So do they go on sale the 10th or the 15th? Conflicting info!

skuncles · #10 12-09-2008, 10:52 PM

According to the Ticketmaster site, the "venue presale" starts this Friday at 10pm. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Monday 12/15/08. Does anyone know if this will require a password? Anyone know the password?

Wow, I didn't know that about Ticketsnow.

You know, I honestly don't mind paying someone a premium, who got a better ticket than I did because they went at it more diligently. But I do mind paying someone whose actions actually prevented me from getting a decent ticket, no matter how hard I tried, starting the second they went on sale.

I've emailed the casino and am waiting for a response. I'm going regardless, but I just want to know when I can get tickets.

Completely false.
