29-Jul-08: Montreal - Tickets, Preview, Meetups, Review/Photos [originally 20-Oct] - Page 4

mcrose · 15-06-2008, 03:21 PM

We were on two computers and the phone yesterday- and the best tickets we could get where in sections 104, 304, 317, or 400 something?? Behind the stage or in back of the center- no thanks!! I don't understand why they released such horrible seats- did anyone get anything decent???

We decided to wait to purchase (thanks Montreal- I am taking your advice!!) and keep our eyes open for something to get realeased on Ticketmaster- or for someone to sell their tickets- although I saw someone selling there 104 (behind the stage) seats on craigslist for $190 EACH yesterday... Crazy!!!

Hope everyone else got decent seats- and best of luck to those that are waiting it out too!!

Montreal · 15-06-2008, 03:27 PM

Don't worry Mcrose... i'm pretty sure we gonna get really good setas

If by any case u call or check in the net (Ticketmaster) that pretty good seats are available please let us know

Cheers

Didn't the show sell out already in 20 minutes ?? And what kind of idiotic thing is that, where they auctioned off all the good tickets starting at 8am yesterday and by 12pm there were no good seats left ?!

redcurry · 15-06-2008, 04:01 PM

yeah...i was looking at the auction and thats a whole lotta good seats up for auction. whats up with that? are the profits going to charity? the prices are so high.

_Broken_Doll_ · 15-06-2008, 04:16 PM

Ticketmaster lied too by saying the prices were 70-100$ for tickets and they're like...200$+. Whaaaat ?

I was still pulling up seats in 304, 104 and the 400s around 3pm yesterday... Takes a few tries before it will actually give you anything- but I don't believe that the show is *truly* sold out.

Montreal- when I pull something up good I will definately post a message- and anyone else- please do the same!

I tried on ticket master yesterday and it gives the same price that people paid, the whole 100$+.

Plus on radio stations everywhere (or at least today on Mix 96) they were saying it was a sold out show and everything.

Takieya · 15-06-2008, 11:39 PM

We did manage to get tickets to the show, but we're in the same boat as everyone else who got lousy seats. We figure that even so, we'll be able to see the show, so we're not that upset anymore. See everyone at the show!

Call 514 790-1245|

plenty of ticks left but not good ones

HorseVu · 16-06-2008, 03:58 AM

FYI.. the best tickets available from the Ticketmaster website on Saturday was in the 116 & 122 sections. Everything else was garbage.

WTF happened to sections 112-115, 101-102, 123, 124?

Freakin BS... doesn't matter, I got my Radiohead tickets.

hanofjoh · 16-06-2008, 04:04 AM

dizzygirl2000 · 16-06-2008, 04:06 AM
