    Possible xtras for Chi-Town...
    I mail ordered a pair for Chicago and am hopeful that I'll get them. In an effort to hedge my luck, I was able to grab a pair from the evil Ticketmaster when tickets hit the street. If GDTSTOO comes through, I will be left with an xtra pair that I will happily lay on someone for face value. They will be of the cheap(?) $50.00 variety and as soon as I know for sure, we can pursue a path of easy transaction. If interested, PM me. see y'all out there, DooDahh His job is to shed light, not to master...

    Well it's about time
    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

Just a friendly thanks to the folks at the GD ticket office -- I won tickets to tonight's show at Roseland. I mention this mostly because I'm just a regular Deadhead -- I don't know anyone personally in the organization, I'm not rich or important -- just grateful that this effort was made to get some free tickets in to the hands of the fans who have been there year after year. Thanks.

gleng1! A biiiiig thanks to all parties involved, especially the band for making it happen at all! As an additional point of reference, Springsteen recently sold tickets to his rehearsals. Admittedly, you did have to go to Convention Hall in Asbury Park, but I'm just sayin'... And now it's time for my boot heels to be wandering, at least for today. Sees y'all at the show! Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

I have an unusual trade request and I certainly hope it's not considered scalping. It breaks down like this. Thanks to GDTSTOO, I have 2 extra, Front Row (Section 3 Row A Seats 1&2) for the Albany 4/17 show. These are front row in the right corner!!!! My 3 tix for MSG are horrible 300 behind the stage. I would be willing to trade these 2 front row Albany for 3 decent MSG tix anywhere lower level or floor, at least in front of the stage. The wife said to sell them for profit and try to buy new MSG tix. I told her that was bad JuJu and that I would try to work out a trade. All tix are in hand. If anyone is interested in discussing this further, email me @ pmk1969@aol.com. Have a great tour!!! I can Tell the Queen of Diamonds by the way she shines!

Hey now! I have 2 great tix to MSG-- section 335, E1 and E2. I had some good karma by winning tix to Roseland, so I thought I would pass on my good fortune to someone else in need. :) I would love to sell my MSG tickets to anyone for face value ($110 each; $99.50 face value, plus $20 shipping I had to pay to deadnet to have them shipped to me); ideally we could hook up in NYC and exchange cash (or paypal, although I've never done that before, not sure how it works?) Or the other option (my fave!) I would LOVE to trade for a pair of tickets to Philly 5/2! That would be the coolest. Maybe one of you kind folks could help a sista out, and I could hook you up in return! xoxo Alicina

Hey kind friends, I've also got 2 extra tix to Nassau, 4/24. Again, would sell for face value plus shipping I originally paid (so, $110 per ticket). Or I would love to trade for Philly 5/2 tickets as well! I hope my tickets find themselves a happy home and make one of you have a wonderful experience at the show! I just saw the Dead at Roseland on Monday night, and the show completely rocked my world. I couldn't have asked for anything better, and I wish that kind of show at Nassau for you! Peace, Alice xoxo p.s. for quickest reply, email me directly at alicevitiello@gmail.com

Hi, I am looking for a kind soul in NYC to sell me 3 tix for the 042509 MSG DEAD show for $200 total. I realize this is CRAZY-BELOW the price on the tix. To compensate for this I am offering you a FREE 3 NIGHT stay in San Francisco. I have a lovely studio apt located 3 blocks from the Powell Cable Car turnaround and would love to share my space w/ you for free. Ideally you are a "Wharfrat" (A sober Dead-Head), because I am sober and would prefer to not have folks loaded, or getting loaded around me and my space. SHORELINE May 10th, SHORELINE May 14th, and you've got a free place, heck, I'll let ya stay at my place from the 9th till the 15th!! (Shoreline stay ONLY offered for Wharfrats, and I pay only $150 for the 3 tix) If this works for us, I have a relative in Manhattan that will pick up the tix and pay you, Of course, I am sure we will speak prior. search words to pull up my note quicker: SF NYC MSG Mountain View CA 05/10/09 05/14/09 051009 051409 0510 0514 042409 0424 04/24/09 04/24 $200 $150
