ticketmaster pisses me off..

[CHECKHEAD2004]

I am really mad.. The first day tickets went on sale we couldn't even get 2 tickets together, nevermind good seats. I ended up doing the Ticketmaster ticket auction and paid 110 a ticket to get 4th row at the Boston Pavilion.
Now I go on and 2nd row is available for 45 bucks, 2 days before the show.
Its the last time I ever buy tickets via a presale...
and the opera house Pit Left AA is now available..
arghhhhh!

they hold so many damn tickets. Sorry just venting..

That's hardly Tickermaster's fault.

Don't be a douche. Bye Joel.

Oh, I feel your pain, CH04.

If you feel like getting even madder check out this thread (http://www.beastieboys.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=80994) about everyone's pre-sale agony for nyc . . . and then like a week ago, long after all the discouraged pre-sales fans gave up and went to scalpers, guess what? Suddenly people are able to buy GA tickets on TM (http://www.beastieboys.com/bbs/showthread.php?t=81815)!

Not. Fair. Right?

And I gotta agree . . . not solely a TM issue either. I mean let's be real, let's not cloud the issue: The pre-sales were all bullshit.

I think Ticketmaster has been pissing off everyone for the last 20 years or so. And this era of ticket brokerages isn't helping things either. I havn't paid face value for a concert ticket in years.:mad:

I bought into it.. those Pit AA tickets were still available today so I bought them.... Seats 1 and 2. I justified it by thinking of how much money I've spent on shows that aren't even my favorite band. Now I'm really pumped. 3rd row Center for my favorite boys??

I'm still mad at ticketmaster though..

If terrorists blew up the ticketmaster headquarters I don't think there would be a single person who wouldn't cheer. Hell, the bombers would probably get the key to the city.
