This was absolutely ridiculous. I consider myself lucky to have a pair of tickets but jesus tap dancing christ, Ticketmaster is a f**king disaster as it usually is. I had all the boot-offs that everyone else described; had tickets, lost tickets; everything. It took an hour and 15 minutes to finally get two for Sunday night at MSG. Here's the thing; after all this time, no one at TM can figure out that two big bands (let alone the biggest band in the world on an arena tour) on sale at the same time might cause some trouble? Please. Take some of that convenience charge money and give it to someone who might figure something like that out.
Not surprisingly, there are many tickets (allegedly non-transferrable and bought by "real" fans) available on stubhub and ready to be sold at an incredible markup to unfortunate real fans who got screwed! Awesome!
This is not a U2 problem. This is typical ticketmaster and it's really not up to Larry, Bono, Edge or Adam to step in here. Give Oseary a pass, too. Hopefully TM doesn't read this and figure out a way to take away my tix through some "internal error" or "improper commentary" charge.
