So I ended up getting aticket for both the 13th and the 15th.But I am having second thoughts about all that travel back and forth from Boston. My Thursday night ticket is Section 125 First Row Seat 2. Anyone want it forface $286? Buyers remorse- I got the same section, Second Row on Saturday. And hotels are too expensive to do both shows.

Thanks backstreetboy1, I checked the 3D viewer on the website and you are right, they are not bad seats. And it's my favorite band on a Saturday night, so on second thought, life is real, real good. Here's hoping that everyone who wants to go gets an AFFORDABLE ticket. (I just checked Stubhub, and the prices are dropping BIG-TIME for the Pru shows.....I had my eye on a ticket in section

I agree, it is ridiculous to call these "cheap" tickets, I take that back. I should have said "least expensive". To pay almost $200 for the privilege of sitting almost behind the stage in the rafters is ridiculous. I only grabbed them because the alternative is even more disgusting...paying close to (or over) $1000 for tickets that would have gone for under $200 on the last t

I got 2 cheap seats, Section 226, Row 18 2 tickets for $154.50 each. I clicked on the icon at EXACTLY 10 a.m. and luckily got the code right. When I finished the transaction I went back in to see if I could score any more cheap seats for you guys but came up empty the second time. I only posted so that people would know that they do sell cheap seats, how many is anyone's guess.

Thanks beast, I just read that thread and it was a BIG help, good to know that I have a contract that is binding. I appreciate your pointing me in the right direction, and thanks to everyone else who answered. Anyone from Boston thinking of going to Newark? If this works out and I can't find anyone who REALLY wants to go, I would consider selling it at cost in return for having someone to

Some more info: The agency is ticketliquidators.com, and the ones contacting me are the ones with the actual tickets. I haven't spoken to them but have e-mailed. Basically it is a unique situation and I don't want to do or say the wrong thing and end up losing the tickets. It is reassuring to hear that if the tickets are no longer available, that they will give me similar or better seat

Not sure what to do, I really thought I lucked out, was looking at tickets at a ticket broker and found 2 tickets in the loge for $175. each plus fees. I bought them right away and got a confirmation next day. But since then I have been getting calls and e-mails from the agency wanting to "talk to me" about my tickets. I have the feeling they are going to reneg or say the listing was wr

Go on to StubHub, the tickets are MUCH cheaper, many way under face value, especially in Boston at the Banknorth Garden. Tickets as low as $40.

ool, I am not sure about the Newark shows, hoping the tickets on the secondary market come WAY down, there is no way I am paying $400+ to be behind the band or in the nosebleed seats. If they come to Boston and you come across an extra ticket, I will probably be going myself, as all my friends have been priced out of this tour, at least if the trend of high ticket prices continues.

Stonesnow, you are in Boston> Somerville here, are you planning to go to either of the Newark shows?
Forum: Tell Me

The problem with your scenerio is that most of those lower-priced tickets will not end up in the real fans hands-at least not at the original prices. At least the way they are doing it now (which I am not trying to justify, just pointing out) the money does end up going to the guys that are providing the main service, and not to scalpers or whatever fancy name they give themselves these days.

This was my second Stones album (GHS being the first.) I always thought the way the first three songs naturally flowed into each other was brilliant. Especially when ATPTB stops and IORR starts right up. The effect is lost on CD reissues, but on the original vinyl- perfection. There are definitely other Stones albums that are "better", but this one is dear to me, as it was the first one

Way back in 1975 or so, radio station WRKO had a "guess the top 5" singles contest each week. I would send in 15-20 (or more) cards with different predictions under different names. I won 15 albums once and 5 albums another time. "Goat's Head Soup" was one of them, and it took me a while to get into it. But when I did, I played it obsessively, and then started buying thei

I use ripit4me, freeware and totally idiot-proof. Which is why i use it. You will need to also download dvdshrink and dvd decripter, and possibly dvd fab decripter. The reason is that ripit4me uses these programs to do all the work, so instead of you trying to figure it all out, it does it for you step by step. And it doesn't cost a dime. Good places to download are majorgeeks.com and cnetdo
