Can anybody please explain me how you can get normal priced tickets through ticketmaster? Everything is just expensive Platinum or Resale Tickets but you can't get a single normal prices ticket
Wait until Show day. Prices will fall as they get desperate to sell unsold tickets, which post event, are worthless.
Thank you guys! I consider booking a flight from Germany to some shows but I feel rather uncertain to go without a ticket. Some say that you always get tickets for stadium shows but somehow I am not a guy who likes to take such risks. Still have to think about it. What a mess ticketmaster is. I already thought Eventim was a mess last year when tickets were popping up and disappearing all the time but to let scalpers resell their tickets through the official ticket shop is a new level of rip offQuote

And on StubHub I have read, scalpers will be desperate to get rid of their tix on show day.
Might do this for NJ if good offers come up? Will see what their behaviour is like with the first shows.

Burl's Creek is taking out sections of the grandstand. It's bench seating on that side, so easy to remove rows and/or sections. As you'll see, they are still not selling entire sections, so my guess is they may disappear.

Looks like Burls Creek has taken over the lead from Glendale as far as weakest selling shows, but don't know where New Orleans fits in to this.
And seeing as Burls Creek is less than two weeks from now, something has to budge...maybe expect more upgrades, closing off upper sections, and some official price drops below face value in all the unsold categories.
Meanwhile Pasadena still seems to be the toughest ticket with only a very small smattering of standard price tix occasionally appearing, though still plenty of VIP. Platinum, and resale.
Looks more like the 2013-2016 catwalk design:Quote

We behold a wonderful sight . The stage is fundamentally the same as expected. It’s all about the catwalks now. The extended side catwalks are a good bet given that Mick’s known to have asked for them.
Most interesting for me is the centre catwalk - will it be the same as 2017/18 or will if, as the ticketing floor plans suggest, be more like the one used in Hyde Park 2013, 14OF, Zip Code and Ole Ole? I.e smaller and circular at the end and not a wider T shape.

Last year when similar happened in Prague, they jusT didn’t bother building 2 (or 4?) of the temporary seating stands in the original floorplan, presumably giving those who’d bought tickets there an upgrade. Nearly all Lucky Dippers were put in GA, which was enormous, as was GC.

Do VIP package tickets give access to the lounge area with pre-show food/drinks?

Any chance there will be free flow from Pit A to Pit B? I received my ticket notice (For DC) from Stones VIP ticketing and only says @Pit on it.

All it gets you is a bag of merch and (sometimes) early entry. VIP and Hospitality passes are handled by the Stones camp, not TM.

I know it works well, but I don't have it. Wouldn't a live Facebook stream work just as well?

Questions:
I am thinking of doing a live Facebook broadcast of the opening show with my Samsung S9+. I have an extra battery too. Some questions:
Will I get in trouble or shut down if I do this?
How much cell/mobile phone space will I need for a two hour show?
Would the only folks able to see it be my facebook friends?
Perhaps an option is to broadcast it on the IORR or Shidoobee FB pages, guess I would have to choose one
And then put up a link here to my FB page, or the IORR or Shidoobee pages? Is it possible to broadcast it from three different pages at once?
Any other thoughts or suggestions?
