P1g Vomit Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Maybe im more optimistic than most others but I think they can sell out or at least put in 40,000+ to these venues. Just checking the ticketmaster interactive map of places like Philly, Orlando, Boston, Houston, etc looks to me like they're gonna sell out. I can't even access the NY, Toronto, chicago, Dallas or other big market maps but I assume cause of the big population that theyll sell out or do well. I mean tickets dont officially go on sale to the general public till tomorrow and even than theres 3 months till the tour actually starts to sell more tickets.

Or wait until the public sale starts and move fast from there? If I should go with a presale, then which would you guys recommend? (I can't go with the Nightrain presale as I don't have membership.) Just FYI, you can load multiple presale codes at once. Today to look at the Orlando map out of curiosity I loaded the Facebook code and the Citi card code, then checked both kinds of tickets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit biased because I'm in Florida, but Orlando should be telling about tour demand. For the No. 3 state in population, you have one date in a centrally located big city, easily accessible from all regions of the state. If that show can't sell, the tour is in need of another headliner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paranoyd androyd Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 is this a joke that people are actually concerned about not being able to buy tickets? right this moment, you can buy as many PIT GA seats that you want for Fri and Sat shows in Vegas. there's zero chance you won't be able to buy tickets for face value (or below) for any of the stadiums all the way up until the shows start. anyone who pays a premium over face value simply doesn't understand the market and what these shows really represent.

Draguns Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Well the section that I bought for MetLife Stadium is no longer available on TicketMaster. So I think it goes to show that ticket sales are probably very healthy in the NYC area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at face value. They're still available at StubHub yes, but it's more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Good luck to anyone trying to get tickets today. I really don't think you'll have a problem, but good luck if I'm wrong! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajdintn Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) I got some OK tickets through the NightTrain presale for Nashville that were in the section right beside the stage on the outer aisle... It said Full View, but we sat there for the Stones and it cut about half of the stage off from that angle and we couldn't see Charlie, etc. I threw them on Stubhub this morning and got rid of them for face value and am going to try again in the regular sale. Hope I don't regret it, but have a good feeling about it! Good luck everyone! Edited April 8, 2016 by ajdintn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuttleboy23 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Well I'm officially sick now. I've got section next to stage in Nashville row B on the aisle. You think those will be bad seats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooby845 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) anyone willing to calculate the possibility of every ticket being sold out and multiplying sections with their respective ticket prices to see the eventual gross? I presume it would yield much more than the promised 3-5 mil per show.... Edited April 8, 2016 by scooby845 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some pop up if people abandon their shopping cart, etc ... but that won't be 1000s of tickets, maybe a scattering in each section. Either way, I think its a good sign when first day sales are that strong and will likely result in a sell out, excluding the VIP tickets, which they can easily convert to regular tickets by stripping away the perks like open bar and commemorative crap and just sell them based on seat location.

I struggled this morning to get tickets but managed to get 2 on the 3rd tier in the end. I'm annoyed because I'm sure there are better seats available but I was pushed for time and it just kept saying "No tickets available". Delighted to get tickets though! A Summer's day in July.

wp9215 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I just checked again, you can get a single Jungle Pit VIP package, but you can't get a pair. And you can't get even a single with any of the othe packages for Metlife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Money Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 As of 12:05pm Las Vegas time, it appears that several of the shows are not off to a strong start from a sales standpoint (according to Ticketmaster searches). Seems that maybe MetLife and Soldier Field are capable of supporting a second day but there are a lot of tickets in the northeast between there, Philadephia, Boston, and of course Washington DC is only a few hours away by car. Didn't check Boston's sales but it seems that Philly still has a lot of seats remaining. Armchair concert promoters out there, do you think the price point is too high?

pugachev Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 (edited) Is in uncommon for them to slash prices closer to the show? I usually wait til the week of a show to get my tickets.
