only one opportunity for lucky dips?...i think i missed it...x$&(*^!!
I’m hoping they’ll drop some again. They have done it for past tours.
Just replied to your post in main tour thread, but maybe better posted here:
They did it for No Filter, but not for any previous tours that I recall though I could be wrong. One batch, and one batch only - once they were gone they were gone.
That said, probably see more for these massive stadiums - especially ones that are selling slow such as Glendale.

My feeling is that most of the nosebleeds are already sold out because of the affordable price. That makes the chances of having a better lucky dip seat more probable. I am hoping that’s the case anyway.

I hope I keep being lucky
My LD results for the No Filter tour 2017/18 were:
Hamburg 2017 – pit
Munich 2017 - pit
Düsseldorf 2017 - GA
Dublin 2018 – pit (with tricks)
London I 2018 - gold circle, but I made it into the pit
London II 2018 - gold circle, but I made it into the pit
Berlin 2018 - pit (like nearly everybody else)
Stuttgart 2018 – gold circle seating, but I made it into the pit
Prage 2018 – only GA (since the fuc*ed up the LD allocation at the venue and I was too tried to react/complain)
Chicago – here I come…

How lucky you were in Europe!
East Rutherford NJ will be my LD first time and i don't really know how it happens in the moment os the concert.
What kind of tricks did you use in Dublin and is it really possible to turn the LD sector better? And you said about complaint. It use to work?

Yeah I wasn't sure and someone else mentioned second batches in another thread.
The question is, did you get truly lucky with good seats?

This is a great question. I have LD Tickets as well. my plan is to call the Stadium Ticket office and plead for acceptable seats- it is, the Holidays and kindness should be in play. If not successful go with Plan B which includes negotiations close to start time that is always 30 minutes late any way

Really the only place to plead and schmooze is at point of pick-up, or afterwards either by going back to point of pick-up, or the customer service station inside the venue.
It indeed does work. I have been upgraded to side stage seats when given nosebleeds by customer service inside the venue. In the UK, out of two Lucky Dips, I scored pit once, and mid priced seats for the other, which they gladly exchanged for the less expensive standing field tickets, which was my preference.

Glendale show will be smack dab on my birthday, hopefully this will be to my advantage (that and the fact that I'm good looking)

i'm not sure that good looking helps – I made it to the pit quite often without looking good

I hate them & my laptop froze. Thought I never got LD’s for Philadelphia. Could not get them after retrying. Got my Amex statement today & there was a charge. Called Ticketmaster & they confirmed I got them. Class. Now I just need to decide, bring the wife or the 8 year old. Wife’s not fussed on the Stones but the boy says he is

If Good Looks are a prerequisite, what age group is included? Are Geezers considered? If not, I must be excluded from the statistical sample population.

I have a bit of bad news for the 3 of you. If we're speaking in statistics, statistically only 1 in 4 people are considered 'good looking'. With that in mind, and with the fact that I know I'm good looking, statistically, the 3 of you would have to be ugly. Well, perhaps not ugly but certainly unattractive.

This is really hard to quantify as beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.
