Phish info from Ticketfly.com
I'm sitting on some left loge tickets row z. I think I might just take them.
what is the real problems here? the site vs. the rabid demand for tickets by fans vs. scalpers who overload the sites.
already there are anywhere from 200+ tickets for sale by scalpers on stubhub (merriweather 1 day) less than 20 minutes after they went on sale. there are 1072 different auctions for phish tickets on ebay right now. these are just 2 spots. i don't blame the site, but it is new and smaller than livenation and ticketmaster . . . so i guess you do have to weigh that into the mix.

so i finally got lawns by asking @ticketfly to post a link for me. links they post are only valid one time, for one purchase, so as soon as someone uses that link it's no longer valid.
the show has been on sale for 40 mins and there are still tickets left for sale??? great system they're running.

Hah yeah, having your server crash seems to prevent the scalpers from getting tickets lol.
How is sitting in either left or right loge at Merriweather? I've only ever sat in the center section or on the lawn.

They keep posting new links. I just was able to pull up Saturday lawn seats.

you just know . . . somewhere, somehow, someone on here is saying, "aww, i didn't get seats (or good seats) to a concert. wahhh! bunch of pussies."
my vote goes to that james ford fellow.

Ok I was able to get my ticket at 1205 or some crap. I tried several times trying to get a seat but ended up with Left floor Row D. Now I thought the entire floor was general admission?? Is that not correct?? Chime in hippies ;D

you did well! you got left center row d . . . basically 10 rows from stage. no ga floor. all reserved and lawn for merriweather.
I just realized now looking at the seating chart my first pull was left center floor AAA. However, I thought these seats were after A thru whatever and I threw them back :o

haha, yeah ;D
so during the ticket buying process, my main credit card was declined. i used my backup, then called the bank to find out what was up with my main card. turns out "PhishTickets" tried hitting my card several times earlier this week but had a detail wrong like the expiry date. after several attempts it locked my account.
so i got tix through the presale, but something (not sure if it was my mistake or theirs) c*ck-blocked me… and instead i got the privilege of being part of today's shit-show. great, just great.

Yeah, I guess I was lucky when I got onto ticketfly this afternoon. I didn't even pre register with all my info and just selected my ticket. Maybe it also has something to do depending on your internet speed? The faster of a connection you have the better you have of getting a ticket. Who knows. ;D

Its amateur hour!
Who is next? Somebody forgot to pay their internet bill? Lost the password?
I didn't try for Phish tix (not a fan), but I followed threads on this here and on PT some just because I'm curious at how this was going to go with Ticketfly.
I can understand people's frustration with the crashing system, etc., but doesn't it seem like Ticketfly might be more fair to average fans than Ticketmaster?
If you look at the seats people are talking about pulling, people are getting some great seats once they actually get through. Wlm pulled front row apparently. I ended up with insane seats for My Morning Jacket through ticketfly (4th row center). I mean, think about your experiences with Ticketmaster. How often do you pull amazing seats through Ticketmaster?
Maybe Ticketfly does less of holding tix back and feeding them direclty to scaplers and thus average fans have a better chance of getting great tix with this system.

I decided i didnt want to see it from the lawn for 118 bucks for two tickets.
Maybe closer to the show someone will want to sell some seats for not a huge mark up.
