Any luck with tickets today?

For some reason I thought the first 15 rows were reserved for the VIP seating only.

No.

 

I think it is the venue in my case (certainly not lack of effort...well, at least frustrated effort). Uncasville is a casino and they will try to get every penny they can out of you. Presale through musictoday found one nosebleed ticket, Citi presale didn't offer anything for Uncasville either. Lots of VIP stuff though. $325 for a "package". I need two and I don't care about all of the other doodads.

 

$650?!?

 

I passed and am waiting for public sale on Monday. That's fine, as long as I'm in the arena (Geddy's side, lower balcony, hopefully) and hopefully I will be. It is what it is.

 

Good luck to those looking and waiting for a venue date to be announced. Congrats to those who have scored awesome tickets. :)

I thought so too but that is apparently not the case. It seems unfair to me that you can have people up front who paid regular price while the person next to them or behind them paid the VIP price.

The VIPNation tickets are guaranteed to be within the first 15 rows, but the first 15 rows are not exclusive to VIPNation.

I see a few of you mention the specific row that you got through the presale. I assume these are VIP tickets. I thought that they don’t tell you exactly where the tickets are except for “within the first 15 rows.”

 

I did not do VIP either and my tickets are 10th row. It is on the side but it is on Alex's side so we are good. :Alex:

The only logical explanation I can think of is that the V.I.P. pre-sale tickets are the best of the best? Meaning within the first few rows, but if you order them way late you will still be guaranteed a seat within the first 15 rows.

Yeah, doesn't it. But hey, that's just the racket that is ticket sales for modern concerts. I would never bother with tix for a modern concert except for Rush, a band that i've seen for years like most here.

 

Again, if I had the money I wouldn't even care. But for anyone that doesn't, there's simply no chance whatsoever. That's the frustrating part about it.
