Thanks a lot for all answers!
I see some of you were extremely lucky many times.
On this tour they give signed envelope with your name on it and no begging is possible.
I wonder how "lucky" is our envelope
That is a worrying development and tends to suggest it’s predetermined. Apart from at the very beginning, I don’t think it’s been completely random for years. Some people seem to get Pit every show and statistically, that can’t possibly be a coincidence.
When picking up my LD’s in Nashville last year, the guy just handed me the next unmarked envelope. Not caring to see The Ghost Hounds, I didn’t get there early. I got toward the front of a 100’s section straight back from center stage. Although they could’ve separated the PIT tickets, it looked to be pretty random from my experience. Also, everyone I personally know that got LD’s had very similar tickets to mine. No PIT.
Anyone draw PIT in Nashville last year?

Hi guys,
Question to those who are experienced with LD.
How often did you score PIT or at least GA and managed to be close to the stage?
Thanks.

Since it will be very uncomfortable in Munich tonight due to the weather:
Did you have the feeling that you have better PIT chances in the Lucky Dip raffles if you come earlier to get your tickets?
Do you think you really have to go to the stadium as soon as you have the tickets or can you go for a meal or a walk until the concert starts?
Best regards
Michael

Not this time! I was the very first one to pick up LD tickets. They lady at the desk picked randomly an evelelop from the box – and I lost… just a seat at the side, block M2, good view though, but not what I am more or less used to

Anyone else get an email from AXS ticket for Liverpool LD. The email states the pdf is my tickets, it’s has a barcode and LUCKY in bold print. I know dips are picked up at the box office, so I’m a bit confused about this email.
Any thoughts?

BTW one of the contributing factors for the LD pickup chaos in Munich was that there were several people in the LD line trying just to buy tickets from the box office. That definitely played a role in the delay. I heard a lot of people standing in the line asking what LDs were and when they realized (late) that they were in the wrong line they went over to the "Abendkasse" (regular box office) line to try and buy tickets.
It was a mess, sure, but in the end I am happy with my score and I'm happy I was able to pick up both of my pairs without problems AND help two total strangers get in for free!

in madrid, they gave us wristbands
but loose - to be put on ourselves
and, as you say, never checked subsequently
so it did seem completely pointless
and a lot of eventual landfill!

Did you or anybody else ever had such bad experiences in other countries? In London it was very chilled and easy. My impression - it is only that bad in Germany...
