PRE-SALE INFORMATION

[IrishMar]

Oh Diana, that's great, well done. We wish we could be there too!

[crujonez]

Are they expecting sell outs of these big arenas like the Spectrum? I am happy not to deal with Comcastix on day of sale. Get your Philly tickets through the presale cause the system usually crashes when good stuff goes on sale. The $3.50 will call charge is uncalled for even though its not a lot of money. Damn I can't wait to see THE MAN again

How did everyone do??

Diana

Thank you Jarkko, AEG, Mr. Kory, and Leonard SOOOOOOOOO much!

I agree with the thanks! Fantabulous to be able to get tickets today!
We have tickets in San Jose: Flr1, row4, seats 6-9
I'm thrilled!
My birthday is November 17, so this'll be an early birthday present for me.
We also got hotelrooms to stay in afterwards so we don't have to try to drive home afterwards. I'm just so excited. OMG!

Thanks to everyone for the advice on getting pre-registered with ticketmaster. It made a difference I think.

After 6 tries on TM, then receiving the page saying that nothing is left....I tried one last time and ended up on FLR Level 1, row 2, and seat 3, which is way over to the right but that's okay!

Hi Diana,

I'm five seats away from you. FLR Level 1, Row 2, seat 8!

I bought another seat first (Flr 3 row 7 seat 4) and then couldn't resist getting a better one. I really do think I have completely lost my mind!


I also would like to say a huge thank you to Jarkko and everyone involved in making this happen.

From Forum messages, PMs, and emails I can determine that today's pre-sale is going really well.
I'm looking forward to seeing many of you in Las Vegas and San José!

Hi Jarkko,

After getting back on Ticketmaster calmly, I've been rechecking for the past 30 minutes. Never did any seats show up in San Jose in FLR 2, which is the center. Curious if any of the Forum members were able to get one. However, when I tried either the Emerald or Diamond VIP tickets....bingo...FLR 2, Row 2! So, right now I'm assuming that possibly all the seats in FLR 2, perhaps back to Row 10 are being held for VIP tickets, which of course, even if you are only one, you must purchase two....sigh. I'll check back as November approaches and perhaps TM will start to release some of the FLR 2 seats. If any Forum members have seats in FLR 2 though I stop my griping....

Thank you again.....SO much!
Diana

got a philly ticket w/o trouble..but extortion charges even WORSE than ticketmaster--almost 50% (!!) of ticket cost, including separate $3.50 charges for "delivery" (i.e. will call!) and for "order charge" on top of $14.25 fee charge, so a $46.50 ticket ended up at $67.75!! quelle swine!

I know!! Add $3.50 for the will call!! Makes me want to deal with ticketmaster

Hi all, I got Floor 1, Row 4, Seat 15 which I am happy with. At one point I had a Row 1 but let it go since it was in Floor 3, and from what I could determine, on the left edge. Hope I don't regret it! Of course I'm still checking like mad to see if I can pull up Row 1 in Floor 2 or 1

I still hate Ticketmaster...I had two windows open and when I clicked over to one, it said the page had expired even though I know it had over 6 minutes left on the little stupid countdown thing!!

Anyway, congrats to all who got seats and THANK YOU Jarkko for the smoooooth posting of the password. So happy you'll be in SJ- I am looking forward to giving you my thanks in person.

Yes - it worked for me for Philly. A bit nerve-wracking - but it worked!!

Thanks again Jarkko. And - why don't you come Philadelphia too? Haha!

Everybody - come to Philadelphia!

(Whatever you do, do not take the first choice if you do not like it. Better to compromise now than to regret later)

Here I am almost 2 hours later and doing just that . I got greedy and passed up good seats - back to my hunt.

[imaginary friend]

Wahoo!

I got 4 San Jose tickets! FL 1 row 6, seats 7-10

I will be going to my nephew's wedding in Florida on Nov 8th, so will detour to San Jose on the way back to Vancouver.

So Jarkko, one more time, THANK YOU so very much for yet another fantastic opportunity. I look forward to seeing you in San Jose – along with all the others who are so lucky to have tickets to the last concert of Leonard's incredible tour.

Steve and I will go with our very close friends from Florida, who were with us at the Montreal concert, when ourselves, Lizzy, Dick & Linda, Manna, Cate and many others were hosted by Jack for dinner before the concert. That trip is one of my fondest memories.

Lizzy, I will miss you in SJ – but am so glad you got tickets to Florida concerts.

[MaryB]

Congratulations to all on your wonderful seats for San Jose, Florida, and Philly! Alas, here I sit, still trying to pull up those magic seats for SJ. It's all my fault. Seeing choices all over the place, I also, like Esther, also passed up Row 1 because it was in Sec 3. Somewhere along the line, Sec 1, Row 2, Seats 9 & 10 popped up. By this time, I was so used to hitting 'search again', I did so in error. And, I did see center row 4 pop up, but I was hell bent on getting Section 1 with everyone else . Now I'm still at my PC, searching, searching.............. Greed is not good .

[da2008]

Feeling your pain, Mary. Have been pulling the same pair of tickets to the concert in Philly all day long - not the best seats and not in price level. Will try on MOnday, I guess. But then I doubt Philly will be a problem. Or so I seem to think...

[MaryB]

da2008,

Philly should not be as big a problem as SJ. I even called TM 4 times trying to get more info. They did tell me that the section I am looking for will go on public sale. Then there is that niggling thought in the back of my head that keeps saying, 'patience (no, it's not Jarkko this time), you know what happened other times when phenomenal seats were released towards the end'. What to do? Back to the search.....

Good Luck to you!!!!
