    Dynamic pricing... really? How nice
    Yikes.. The Official Platinum seats dynamic pricing thing is really rude. Dynamic pricing.. got to love it. Set a fixed tier of prices for your tickets!! Fight scalping by fighting scalping, not by becoming scalpers. Lottery for example.. remember Santa Clara, fans got tickets, secondary market was controlled by fans, tickets went for face value. Do not claim free market on this tactic... Free markets are transparent. How many of these platinum seats are being bought? For how much? Only you know that that is not fair. In a free market we would know as well as you what prices are being paid. The Amex presale is just a way to gauge demand so you can set your price. That feels predatory to me because it is. The ticket counter should be a place where all are equal, not an auction where the price changes moment by moment. The game being played this week is to see who bites at what price. I wish it was scalpers who were playing this cruel game with us, but it is the band themselves. I am sure plenty of New Yorkers are hungry for a show and I respect that. But the less of us who pay $700 today the same tickets will be at $500 tomorrow, and $400 on Thursday. The general idea of dynamic pricing is bad enough. But add the big data piece to it and it gets really gross. Ticketmaster for example knows who I am, they certainly know what shows I have gone to and what I have paid. They know where I live and can approximate my income based on that. They may have other data points as well, depending on how much it matters to them. I am using an amex card, have to, amex knows my income even better than just having an address. Perhaps the algorithm is something like.. Amex shows him with income of x, offer him tickets at price Y + 30 percent. How would I know what price others see ? I have enough experience to know a small amount of what they know. They know what you earn, they know what you have bought, particularly tickets, like any good scammer choosing a mark, they do their research. Our friends in the band have decided to go along with this dynamic pricing as a way to fight scalping, really there are other ways to fight evil without becoming evil. A fun game would be to see what type prices they offer. Me right now I see.. For Saturday Night Sec 118 7 19 - 20 2 US $650.00 Anyone else seeing higher or lower than that ? There is a chance that it is just strictly start high, move lower based on time approach. -- Tom

    @rgergelis
    I agree, I was able to get Lock'n tickets no problem. I guess scalpers do not mess with festivals as much? I was foolish to think it would be easy. They added a second show. I will be in NYC anyhow for a phil show on Friday, if prices get reasonable I may grab some tickets. It has been a good year, I am not going to let one show bother me too much. Yeow !!!! -- Tom

I paid for all 5 nights video and got a message that my credit card had been billed. But when I try to watch get asked for a Username and password. I was never asked for a username. Tried the email address about 20 times, no good. Been on hold with the phone help line for an hour. Concert starts in 25 minutes. This is a PPV abortion. And of course there are lots of disclaimers about how there will be no refunds. MLB.com you seriously blew this one.

I'm in on my laptop. But via Chrome, not internet explorer. With IE, I was getting the same login issue that others are having. You should be able to enter your email address and password that you set up with you did the "Redeem" from the email.

Sorry for all those having trouble logging in, try google chrome instead of internet explorer as previously mentioned. Wow, for a guy who's been "off the road" for 25 years (saw approx 150 shows, last in 1990), it's a little overwhelming to have mid-floor views on the big screen, so many memories are washing over me already. Really glad to be a part of this, no matter how it differs from the dream we dreamed long ago...

I want to give Trey the benefit of the doubt, but he just looks like an outsider up there, doesn't fit in with the boys. Maybe by day 5 he will.

My friend texts it as Slipnot>Truckin'. Maybe the instrumental intro wasn't recognized. Totem: You're probably right. I think the intro was not recognized by my friend — or maybe she really wanted to hear it. I'll bet Trey is holding his own.

Since I've been stuck here in the hospital for the past 3 days it's nice to hear some good vibes. Guess I'm lucky I got shut out of these shows, would've missed them anyway.

It's moving to see the boys together again--- my wife broke into tears a few times--- I can't criticize, this is a dream come true. Phil looks vibrant and happy, they all do and they sound amazing after 50 years. Can't wait for Trey to let loose

What do you mean by that? @uconnjhd: I think you're right, and it's a clever way to point out another legendary long break, but perhaps also put them down for being old and slow. I guess I'm a little over-sensitive, as I am old and slow myself, and have had personal experience with defibrillators. They're not exactly something that you hit on like an asthma inhaler :-)
