What's with the back and forth between Ft.Myers and Ft. Lauderdale?  Is it a typo or for real?

"There's a lot of people that are in so much of a hurry to be, I guess, to be famous or that they don't want to take the time to learn to play and do all that.They'd rather just knock it down off a computer and maybe get on a game show and get famous..That's fine if that's what you want to do.

Re: Spring 2017 U.S. Tour Pre-Sale

Frustrating as usual. I had 2 front row for Hershey but there were 3 there and it wouldn't allow me to take just 2. Ticketmaster really annoys the hell out of me. Now I can't pick my own and the thing just keeps saying it's searching and never gives me anything. Really get tired of this. There's got to be a better way.

Scored front row center for Milwaukee! big_smile No Ticketmaster to deal with there. Chicago is another story. I'm going to wait on this one. The Platinum seats are in play and best I was getting was balcony, too far back or too far on the side. It's not my favorite venue so I will try not to be too heartbroken if it doesn't work out.

I'm shocked he's playing Springfield, Il instead of Rockford or Champaign.  I'm also surprised at no St Louis.

Re: Spring 2017 U.S. Tour Pre-Sale

It's a bad time of year for us with Feb & March being the height of tax season, so we only got the 2 Pittsburgh ones. Hershey was too frustrating. Maybe we'll try for it later.

Re: Spring 2017 U.S. Tour Pre-Sale

Super happy that Joe is coming to Florida.  We are used to him being here in December, but this works just fine.  We still have 2 free tickets and a M&G from a lithograph my wife purchased for me a year ago, so I guess we will use that.  Just not sure which Florida show we will go see.  If everything goes as planned, fingers crossed,  we will see Joe in February and retire the end of March.  I have to calm myself down still got months and months to go.   At my age you generally want time to slow down, not now.  I want to wake up tomorrow and have it be February.

The only thing we deserve, is an opportunity.  Everything else has to be earned.

Not sure this works with Ticketshafter, but what I have done before is open up two browser windows, pick the single ticket first and drop it in your basket. Then you should be able to drop the other two tickets in the basket of the other browser, purchase the two tickets and then release the single ticket back for sale.

One other ticketmaster tip: I've found the (iOS) app can often connect and purchase when the website is non-responsive.
