I think we will start to see the tix on stubhub start to go up now though. Lots of people are grabbing them. Can't beat that price. Hope they start to move them and from what you are saying It sounds as If that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which combined with night 1, would be considered more than successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiley_1979_007 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 ok so right now Ticketmaster here in canada has dropped all floor and PIt tickets from $450 to $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-Ass Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 They just stopped online sales for the first Foxboro show when there were a couple thousand of tickets left.. You now have to go through the box office.. They are really pushing to sell tix for the second show.. Stubhub floor tix for the first show are selling out quickly though. You could get on the floor for $75 bucks yesterday but now the prices are rising again because they were flying off the shelf at that price.

sanity_lost Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 For comparison's sake: The first Foxborough show. The one on the left was captured today. The one on the right was captured on July 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrw80 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Any idea if MetLife #2 will drop in price or any deals online? I am considering going, but will wait until Sunday to try to get the best deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am considering going, but will wait until Sunday to try to get the best deal. Metlife has dropped. At least a bit. I have tickets for $104 ($125 with fees) in section 222A for night 1 and those tickets cost $84 (without fees) now for night 2. I'm also positive that just dropped in price cause I'm pretty sure I was checking to see if the tickets I had would get any cheaper. Not sure if it drops more than that though.

I'm not too familiar with the stage setup, but based on the map it appeared it would be a great view being so close to the stage. Hopefully you're wrong. If anyone has any thoughts please chime in.

It looks like its quite far off to the side. Like where Richard's area tends to be isnt TOO far, but seeing anything after him might be a chore. I could be wrong entirely. This will be my first stadium show. Im used to arenas. I figured Id ask here and hope for some word from experienced stadium goers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We shall see what the future holds, hopefully lots to come! I've been to plenty of stadium gigs, and I wouldn't be disappointed with your spot in the slightest. It's in the top 1/3 of best seats in the house in terms of proximity to the stage - think of all the people behind you and beside you, and even on top of you in the nosebleeds! Those seats exist for a reason, like they wouldn't put them on sale if they were bad enough to ruin anyone's evening. You'll be fine In my experience when the view from certain spots really shit they put often sell them cheaper and call them 'restricted view' tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you or anyone know what the best course of action would be to get the best price? I saw them in Philly, just really want to go again (I just can't spend a lot). Wait until the day of? Would stubhub have better deals from more desperate sellers? also: I don't care where I sit. I was in the pit previously. Just wanna be in the building.

I'm going to be driving up from Southern NJ ticketless unless something ridiculous drops out on Stubhub... Otherwise, I know that I can get an OK 2nd level seat for $64.50 plush a modest service charge at the box office, and a lower for $84... I'll hang around outside and speak with some scalpers and offer them a $50 for decent seats, less for garbage... if none bite walk over to box office and purchase... otherwise, don't jump on stubhub, bc people are buying seats at times for more than ticketmaster has them currently listed, and far more than they would actually cost at the box office once you subtract TM's ridiculous fees. In all honesty, when a scalper turns me down for $100 total for 2 great seats, I will ask which will taste better... the meal you can buy with my $100 or the cardboard in those tix.... If they don't make the right decision, off to the box office I'll go ha Edited July 21, 2016 by TheDave0206 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may jump on those at some point, or hopefully they'll do that 4 for $100 lower level deal they did for Boston yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrw80 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Does anyone think they will close off the upper level for the second MetLife show? Feeling very indecisive. Buy $30 tix and hope they move me up? Or hope they do that $25 lower level deal they did for the second Boston show? tough decisions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on 336, which will have a fine view, but with so much of the 300s unsold and so much of the lower levels open, I'm crossing my fingers for a move to the 100s or 200s.

TheDave0206 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I called Metlife today to see what the ticket fees would be through the box office as compared to TM... they said the price you see before fees on TM is what you pay at the box office... so $30 means $30... that should give someone looking for a deal even more ammo, as now you can walk up with $80 and offer it to a scalper with lowers, and when they act like you're nuts, just say no problem, I'll save $20 and get in at the box office (if buying a pair). If you want to get in, no one is going to be shut out... Also, they claim there is no chance of closing 300 level, as they are "selling a bunch of tix now that it dropped to $30".

I almost want to just grab the $30 tickets, but I can't help but think that there will be some kind of 40% off or 4 for $100 deal in the next day or two like there was for the second Boston show.

(don't tell ticketmaster's map that though, ha) To preface my opinion- it is really difficult to tell what is going on by looking at the ticketmaster seating chart, but I don't think they could close the entire top level. Even if they are holding back every other row, that is a lot of people they would have to find a place for down below. I think... assuming they aren't holding back even more tickets than I'm already estimating... it would be questionable if they'd have enough space for everyone. That is along with the expectation that they will be doing discounts like they have for previous shows, they have been doing a pretty good job of moving tickets in a underselling venue. I doubt they'll close the entire top level, but they may close individual sections and move those people down to fill the unsold seats. Probably even do quite a bit of upgrading people on the spot. On previous show you could see sections of seating in the lower areas suddenly disappearing which indicated they were going to be closing upper areas. I haven't seen that happen yet for this show (we are talking the second night right?). That could be because they have chunks of seating they never made available they will simply move the people to or they just haven't started shifting people yet. I think I'll keep an eye on the map to see if there are any strange seat movements. It also bugs me that I can't see the seating chart for the first show. What is up with that?

Gnrcane Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 For those of you that watch really closely, how many tickets do they typically sell on the day of the concert? Are there a significant number of people that either decide very last minute to go or want to avoid Ticketmaster's fees and have planned all along to buy at the venue box office on the day of the concert?
