Grateful Dead

I got a plain, regular Madison Square Garden ticket from GDTS, the same type I get for my Knicks ticket from MSG. Not complaining; I got a "grate" floor seat from good ol' GDTS. "Let there be songs to fill the air."

i would think the tickets need to be printed per order, i dont think they have the tickets on hand. GDTS might have the same deal or get an alotment of tickets to each venue. or if they are anything like the old mail orders then they have to be made then printed. i'm sure each order # is tagged to the requested ammount of tickets and are printed not long before they are sent out. when we used to go to ticketbastards they had to print the tickets, they did not just have them already on hand as far as i can remember. when you least expect it you'll get that e mail confirmation and everything will be just exactly perfect. im curious what the mail orders look like. are they like the old mail orders all decorated or are they just plain old tickets.

Yeah I don't like them taking my cash then holding out on sending the product. It's not good business. I worry what if something happens during the delivery, there won't be much time to fix any potential problems if they wait until the last second. It doesn't even make sense to wait that long. Meanlesam is right - what about the folks who will be on the road (like me)?? Oh yeah I'll just swing back to my house once a week to pick up more tickets. No problem. Sheeesh! While we are bitching, I wish they would have just scheduled those last 3 shows from the get-go. I was stupid and made flight/hotel arrangements before knowing about the add on shows, now I'm trying to change my flight, and add on more days to my hotel and it is so expensive to make changes its not even worth it. Probably can the flight (lose money) and drive now. It's a little frustrating. But I'm still going ... somehow!! "When the smoke has cleared she said, that's what she said to me. You're gonna want a bed to lay your head and a little sympathy"

I sent Music Today an email asking when I could expect my tickets. Unfortunately they replied with: "Our tickets ship approximately 2 weeks prior to the event. Once tickets ship you will receive an email confirmation of your shipment along with the tracking number for your order." This makes me nervous. And a little pissed off. They took my money the day I ordered but I have to wait more than 2 months to receive my tickets. Absolutely craptacular. And what about the folks that are going on tour? You know it's gonna get stranger, so let's get on with the show!

Anyone gotten pre-sale tix yet? I've never waited so long to get tickets that I bought so early. And yes, I know the "two weeks before the show" disclaimer....having seen that kind of caveat attached to many, many tix bought online (that would then show up the following week), I've just stopped believing it. Is it really true this time?

Glad you got tickets! We'll be at Worcester show Sat night. I've seen Ratdog 6 times, and seen One More Sat Night 6 times, so I'm 6 for 6! If my record holds, maybe I'll bring you good luck! Crickets and cicadas sing, a rare and different tune, Terrapin Station.

Floor seat for MSG! "Let there be songs to fill the air."

puckhead, you might want to post in the Ride Board topic in the forums. In the interest of general prudence I would not post in a world-readable forum the regrettably unlawful substances with which you plan to travel.
