OT: How do I hear it first? (sold out Pearl Jam...)

Friends!

I am currently frustrated because again I missed the chance to get Pearl Jam tickets when they went on sale. Same goes for other bands. I just hope that I get it right for the Stones.

But: How do I hear a tour announcement (eg. Stones or anyone) first without checking the internet ALL THE TIME. Is there an app for my phone? E-Mail-Alert worldwide? I have the stones app but didn't get a message that they announced Belgium and Holland.

Cheers
schwonek

Bands in town is a nice app which works often well - I recommend it.

At Eventim there's a Ticket Alarm, something similar on Ticketmaster.

Did you refresh the News in the Stones App?

I refreshed the stones app and the news shows. But how do I make it to push news to my iPhone?

And band in town is nice, only it doesn't show the 2 first European dates of the Stones tour that is about to hit Germany hard.

You hear everything first on twitter if you follow the right people.

And that is? Probably not the official stones twitter... :-/

Well, I start by following you :-)

Well I visit concerts in the UK & in Belgium.
So I follow all the interesting venues in those countries and ticket sellers like ticketmaster, eventim, livenation, etc...

I've never not been able to get good tickets for a show using AMEX Front of the Line.

I'm not sure they reserve the best seats, but it's a chance to buy the tix before they go on sale to the public, and if you don't get them, you still have a second chance with everyone else two days later.

Some how through the years I've gotten on lists of several other 'local' companies offering presales, and when I take advantage them, they also always have worked out.

Live Nation is one of them, although I know they're far from being 'local'.
