U2 Tour 2019 Annoucement Live Thread
stateless replied to Max Tsukino's topic in General #thejoshuatreetour2019
That was me after the Red Hill presale. Had an uncontrollable urge to obsessively check Ticketmaster and all the forums for tickets for nearly a day. Made it next to impossible to work. Agree with others about how smoothly things went overall. I did have some bother for Auckland, but it all worked out. Maybe TM could learn some lessons for North American and European presales in the future. -

I am so ridiculously excited to see quokkas on Rottnest Island! Possibly more than U2...or at least as much. 😃 -

Soooo....I'll be first to ask about presales. Can we split the 4 tickets across 4 different shows? -

YEP! Auckland and Melbourne definitely! Adelaide and Perth highly likely. Hoping for Singapore, if I can swing affordable flights from US -

u2eitour Berlin Live Thread #U2eiTour
stateless replied to Max Tsukino's topic in Mercedes-Benz Arena, Berlin, DE
Was getting sad I only have 1 day left in Berlin. Now I know Bono is healthy and U2 is giving me the opportunity to come back again so soon! Gotta work on changing my Dublin return and adding Berlin to my trip. Really hope we can keep our same seats. Mine was amazing. Berlin will blow the roof off MB Arena!- 880 replies

why did i have to renew if i was good til 2019?
stateless replied to Sam B's topic in Presale Area #U2eiTour 2018
I also got the green light message before re-upping. My current subscription goes until March 2018 and I used up my code for JT. I re-upped anyway because I don't want any (additional) nasty surprises on presale day. Mind, I've got ticket PTSD from Springsteen on Broadway so I'm fully expecting this to be just as much of a cluster - though there are a lot more tickets available for U2 so there's some chance of getting something in general sale. IMO the only way they are ever going to prevent scalpers from getting tickets is to have Bono, Edge, Adam, and Larry personally come to each of our homes, escort us to the shows, and then take our money as we pass through that gate. And I would have absolutely no problem with that. ? -
I hope the Mods are getting their drink orders in now - gonna be a long day/evening

Assuming there are going to be new pre-sale codes, do we need to re-up subscriptions now - as in the next 90min?

Getting to stadium from Brussel-Central station
stateless replied to stateless's topic in Brussels - Stade Roi-Baudoin
Thanks so much, Lobmans! I'll actually be staying very close to Central station/Grand Place, so your directions are perfect. Thank you as well for the "event pass" tip! Love that the metro includes a pass. More cities should do that to encourage use of public transport. -
Does anyone know what the restrictions are for Brussels? Is a regular shoulder purse ok? Do I need a clear bag? Or a smaller purse?
-
FYI for those looking for a VIP package (NOT Red Zone), you can buy them without a code now. You still need a presale code for everything else, including RZ.

Presale questions for new dates Sept / Oct 2017 (merged)
stateless replied to mike_bain's topic in Presale Area
Indeed, you mods are the only ones keeping this some semblance of sane! Be assured, my rant has nothing to do with you all and everything to do with LN/TM ❤️ -
Presale questions for new dates Sept / Oct 2017 (merged)
stateless replied to mike_bain's topic in Presale Area
This a massive User Experience (UX) issue. If a code is completely used, it should either show as crossed out, or just not show up at all. They also need to be sure partially used codes read properly across all platforms. There is something SERIOUSLY wrong that we go through this sad dance on every single presale on every single tour. SO much love to Maxtuskino and BigWave and other mods for the HARD work they put in trying to help, but if LN/TM actually cared about more than $$$, they'd fix some very basic issues. I love U2 and will still go to shows, but this nonsense (and ever spiraling prices for the hassle) takes a whole lot of joy out of it all. :-( -
VIP Packages: Do they count against fan club ticket limit??
stateless posted a topic in Presale Area
Do VIP packages count against the usual ticket limit for presales? Can you still buy one if already bought your 4 max tickets, and your code unlocks it? Can't find any info on this anywhere. -
Presale questions for new dates Sept / Oct 2017 (merged)
stateless replied to mike_bain's topic in Presale Area
Do VIP or Red Zone packages count against ticket limit? I bought 4 regular tickets on my code for legs 1 & 2, but my code is showing up as still valid (i.e., not crossed out) in my account. I don't want to risk losing my subscription, but if I can at least get in for VIP or RZ, that would be great! Will just wait for general sale for other shows. -
Can't speak to the actual RZ experience in YVR, but my seat was opposite the RZ entrance. There is absolutely no problem moving into general GA if you prefer. The only check is at the RZ entrance itself. Not sure if it was handled any differently when they first let everyone in. Also, my hotel overlooked the stadium and RZ check in area. There were about 15-20 people who lined up early in the morning (maybe 9am-ish) and more of a line around 2pm. But as others have said, unless you want a specific spot, there's probably no reason to line up real early. I did it in Baltimore for 360, lined up around 3pm and got a rail spot with no problem.

Bad, RHMT, Exit, and a certain song that's being rehearsed regularly that hasn't been played in a long time, all in the same set? Y'all gonna need that power washer to wipe up my exploded molecules all over the floor.

Count me among the strongly opposed to ticketless/credit card entry. For many reasons. I get that it's an attempt to thwart scalpers, but scalpers will always find a way. Instead, honest fans buying tickets many months in advance risk being stuck with tickets they can't use, and no way of getting those tickets into the hands of other fans who were left out. Life happens, plans change. Credit cards get lost, stolen, or compromised. Illness, injury, and death make it impossible to get to the venue to swipe someone else in. Living far from a venue makes it hard to "lend" your card to a friend. And that's really not the best solution anyway. Friends can lose credit cards or get robbed and now you've put that added burden and guilt on another person. Surely, there has got to be a better way that still allows flexibility for when life happens. Perhaps a place to resell to other fans that doesn't allow for markup above face value. Maybe it even means eating Ticketbast**d fees to maintain "face value" and ensure no attempts at raising prices. That's still a big chunk of change to have to eat, but far better all around than losing hundreds of dollars while tickets go unused and fans are left outside for want of an unused ticket. My purely selfish reason for despising ticketless entry (and e-tickets) is that I just like hard printed tickets. Hey, I'm old. I've been going to shows since 1985. Get off my lawn. :-)

Any ideas why the center lower level is blacked out? Can't imagine it would be obstructed view - it's actually the best position for this kind of set-up. Wonder if they're going to rig up a screen somehow? Though it wouldn't be terribly effective when the stage is at one end of the stadium - as in the rest of the shows.

Come on ticketmaster
stateless replied to Nawlins's topic in U2 iNNOCENCE + eXPERIENCE Tour 2015 (archived, read only)
Keep trying, folks! I was about to give up, but the app finally started coming up aces. Just snagged MSG1,2, and 4 within 20min. The app did crash the first time a ticket came up and I tried to pay, but after that they went through no problem. All lower bowl, full price - I'm doing a Scarlett O'Hara until the CC bill comes in. My browser were still bouncing around in endless spin when I shut them down. Hopefully things are starting to settle down now...good luck everyone! -

LOL! Yep...back to 15 or more. Debating if I should just give up, head into work and hope I can snag something later. I've never even seen a Springsteen on sale this crazy -

Ha! Yeah, I was hedging all over the place with my boss this morning. I already said I'd be working at home this morning and unavailable for a couple of hours, but I HAVE to get into the office by this afternoon. Really didn't think I'd spend the morning watch TB spin. At least 2 of my laptops have gotten off the "15min or more" and started bouncing around between 4 and 12min. It's sad that this actually excites me.
