    Trouble with Ticketmaster
    Is anybody having trouble with Ticketmaster? I logged on to purchase tickets and it said it was searching for tickets and not to leave the page. Almost 7 hours later it appears to still be searching but I am afraid to log off because on my other computer I can see they are all sold out. Any info?

    No sob story—just want to be at these shows. Tried mailorder, sat in front of ticketmonster for 5.5 hours. It's 4:20 now. Go figure. ;-) Look! I'm a forum member since 2009. Old Heads here.

    need tix please!
    grovel, beg, heartbreaking story.. (please fill with whatever will touch your heart). Fan of the music, need anything willing to be offered, up to 4/each night. my squad (me, 2 sons, neighbor) want this run badly. any partials gratefully accecpted. I can afford extra/barter over face and will probably end up paying whats nessasary. I'd rather not, but i understand we all gotta eat. Just hoping for kindness here before im forced to wrestle the wolves... thanks! UPDATE: Grateful to kind Deadhead soul who got me 2 for Sunday! Would really appreciate 2 Sunday tix so the whole crew can get in to at least one show.

    Cash for your extra...
    Boxed out of the mail order and of course beat down by Ticketmaster. Looking for whatever I can find, any night. Would love to take my younger sister to at least one of the shows. Back in the 90's my folks would not allow her to join me in the annual Soldier Field festivities. I tried real hard to take her in '95 and it was a bust (she was only 14 in '95, big age gap between us). We all know what happened next...to this day she won't let my folks live down. Would love get her close to the real thing. Would appreciate any help. Unfortunately I cannot justify what the scalpers and stub hub are charging nor do I want to contribute to their greed. I'd rather pay the money to a reasonable head that is not looking to make a killing. Hopefully someone can help a brother out so I can help a sister out.

    If anyone has got an extra for the 4th or 5th I'd be ever so grateful. Mail order = denied Ticket Bastard = denied. I've got a hotel that is getting use no matter what but I'd like the comfort of knowing I am able to get in for one night.

    The Wheel
    I'm still in the TicketMonster room, 5.5 hours later, spinning wheel with the damned message from the Monster saying, "Your wait time is less than 10 minutes." Smile smile smiling at that. And GDTS was a fail. I'd love to join my touring friends of past thirty years who all are reuniting from all over the USA for these shows. If any kind Head has two extra for each or any night for me and my lady friend, we'd be eternally grateful. We can offer your cost for tickets, good food and drink, and great vibes with friendly people at two day/night rooftop party in West Loop. There will be families with teens and all friendly folks. We can perhaps arrange a drive to or/and from the airport to your hotel for you, as well, if traveling from out of town and arrival/departure times work. Please message me if interested. Cheers and good luck to all.

    Desperately seeking Chicago tickets!!!! ;)Hi, Please PM me if you potentially have 1-2 tickets for any single or all three nights. We booked a hotel the moment the dates were announced, and will likely be flying in from Asia (where I am predominately based), whether I am able to score 1 night or all three, but were not successful via mail or this morning. We are from the Santa Cruz area, and I am home for the next month or so and can meet anywhere in Northern California for the exchange at ANYTIME that is convenient for you. Please PM me for my mobile number - I understand you will want to verify that I am an actual deadhead, etc ;), or email me at wvstauble@yahoo.com Please let me know if there is any way to sweeten the exchange and I will do my utmost to show my gratitude in whatever (reasonable ;)) way!!! Vaya con Dios, Will

I've been randomly looking for tickets to shows on the tour and have had plenty of luck. In some cases, the seats are nosebleeds, while others appear to be in the loge (which ain't bad). While most shows are being handled by Ticketmaster, there are six that are not. So, follow these directions and you will be connected directly to the agencies that are licensed for the following performances: (1) If you want Shoreline tickets, call 877-598-8497. (2) If you want to go to the Albany or Buffalo shows, call 888-223-6000. (3) If you're trying for either of the two the Philadelphia shows, try calling 800-298-4200. (4) For Charlottesville tix, call 800-594-8499. If the show you want to go to is being sold on Ticketmaster - keep trying, every day! TM is famous for holding seats back and releasing them at odd times. I've bought excellent seats to performances over the years by being patient and checking back.

Well it's about time, please take a minute to write to your congressman!!! Well it's about time Congressman asks for investigation of Ticketmaster, TicketsNow over Springsteen By George Gombossy on February 3, 2009 2:44 PM | Permalink | Comments (0) PASCRELL SEEKS INVESTIGATION INTO TICKETMASTER BUSINESS PRACTICE WITH SUBSIDIARY, TICKETNOW Press release: WASHINGTON-- U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell, Jr. (D-NJ-08) today requested that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) Antitrust Division investigate Ticketmaster's relationship with its subsidiary company, TicketsNow, following the company's handling of ticket sales for the Bruce Springsteen tour that became available on Monday February 2. Dear Chairman Kovacic: I am writing today to direct your attention to a potential conflict of interest regarding Ticketmaster and its affiliate company, TicketsNow. This issue has been brought to my attention through constituent complaints and press reports regarding the online sale of Bruce Springsteen concerts tickets at the IZOD Center in New Jersey and other locations all across the country. As you know, Ticketmaster is a large ticket sales and distribution company that often serves as a venue's sole ticketing agent. A large percentage of their sales are made online through Ticketmaster.com. In a recent effort expand its business Ticketmaster acquired TicketsNow, a website which specializes in the secondary, resale market for tickets. When tickets for Bruce Springsteen's new tour went on sale exclusively through Ticketmaster at 9:00 a.m. on Monday, February 2, 2009, scores of fans in New Jersey were met with technical difficulty on Ticketmaster.com that impaired them from making a purchase. Thousands of others who were fortunate enough to get beyond the technical problems were informed that the shows were sold out. Conspicuously placed on the same screen that informed fans of ticket unavailability was an alternative purchasing option from TicketsNow.com. It offered the same tickets at a value marked up hundreds of dollars beyond their original face value. I am troubled by how quickly tickets priced exponentially higher became available on the secondary market to thousands of rejected fans, many who also endured unfortunate technical problems on Ticketmaster.com. I am concerned that the business affiliation between Ticketmaster and TicketsNow may represent a conflict of interest that is detrimental to the average fan. There is a significant potential for abuse when one company is able to monopolize the primary market for a product and also directly manipulate, and profit from, the secondary market. Additionally, the speed with which tickets were made available on Ticketmaster's official resale affiliate site raises questions about whether TicketsNow brokers were given preferential treatment instead of competing on a level playing field with average consumers to purchase the tickets. With so many families struggling in this economy, I am outraged by how expensive tickets to ball games, concerts and other shows have become. I understand the economic principles that have driven up the cost of entertainment, but will not tolerate unjust business practices that put regular Americans at a disadvantage. I respectfully request that your office investigate the relationship between Ticketmaster and TicketsNow to ensure that the procedure for purchasing tickets remains fair to the average consumer. If you require any additional information or have any questions, please contact Arthur Mandel on my staff at (202) 225-5751. I look forward to the favor of your reply. Sincerely, Bill Pascrell, Jr. Member of Congress

Hey there, I bought a few too many dead tickets, and now I can't afford to go to Bonnaroo. Due to this, I have tickets each following shows up for sale/trade: Worcester 4/18 - 1 Hartford 4/26 - 2 I will gladly trade both sets of tickets for a weekend pass with camping (non-RV) to Bonnaroo. If cash is offered, I will accept no more than what I paid for the tickets. They're pricey enough as it is. All the tickets are floor seats. For more information, feel free to mail me on this site, or at me email address: redial2 [at] gmail [dot] com Thanks a ton. Also, I will be attending whichever shows I can't offload tickets for, as well as the 4/19 show in Worcester. If you're interested in carpooling, shoot me a message. -Coffee

Hi!We bought tickets (general admission) to the Shoreline show on May 10th, but after seeing today that they will be playing the gorge in washington, we would much prefer to go there since we wouldn't have to fly. If you would like these tickets for the same price I got them for ($79? i think. I cant remember right now, but we can figure it out later). Please e-mail me! I would be happy to send them to you.

Dear Community, Can anyone help out an old head with 2 tickets to the Madison Square Garden show? I messed up on my mail orders. I'll pay cash, but not to a scalper. Even money for even value of what you paid only. Send me a message if you have a couple of extras. Thank you very much. Gratefully yours, Larry
