That's excellent news!
I just picked up 4 tickets in Sec. 50 and I'm very excited! But it made me wonder, are tickets not selling well?
i like how i spent lots of time during the 'presale' trying to get good tickets and the best i could do was the 100 level and now better seats are popping up like crazy. :(
ha...I just bought to floor seats today for friends. Not at an unreasonable price by any means, but face is always nicer.
QuoteI just picked up 4 tickets in Sec. 50 and I'm very excited! But it made me wonder, are tickets not selling well?
not necessarily due to poor ticket sales, ticketmaster always does this. They hold a grip of seats, usually the best ones in the house, for various reasons.....promotions, bands request, business kickdowns, promoters, VIPs, etc. When they get cloer to an event and realize they don't need all of them they release them back into the system.
Son of a BITCH I don't want to miss this!!!!!!

This is kind of a slap in the face to everyone who woke up at the ass crack of dawn over the summer to buy tickets. My seats aren't bad, but I would love floor seats. Guess early bird doesn't always get the worm.

Since when does the sunrise at 10AM?
honestly, this type of ticket release of good seats happens for pretty much every Ticketmaster ticketed event. However, I think this is the first time I've ever heard/seen of the re-release being announced to the public. They usually just toss them into the system....and some folks get lucky.
GA tix are coming up left and right!!
Hop to it, people.
Ya mon!!! Just got 2 on the floor!!!
Thanks CC!
got one ga for myself since i'll be flying solo, now i just have to figure out what to do with my pair of tickets in sec. 103.
just got one for myself on the floor. sweet.
there are also very good seats closer to the stage showing up if ga is not your thing. i pulled sec. 108 and sec 123 just now.
What would be better: General admission or section 6 on the floor? I already have section 6 txts and don't know if I should buy GA with this ticket release going on now...

Ga hands down, at least there if you get someone tall in front of you, you can simply just move. If that happens in sec. 6 your basically screwed as its all on the same level. I guess the only plus to sec. 6 is the bridge chair you will have. But who wants to be sitting during this anyway. :)
so much for the $380 bucks Kerrie paid for 2 ga tix on tickets now...kinda bullshit if you ask me.

I hesitated and the GA tickets aren't coming up anymore. I am going to keep checking.
And I can't complain about tall people around me, being 5'10...
Quoteso much for the $380 bucks Kerrie paid for 2 ga tix on tickets now...kinda bullshit if you ask me.
Yes, but these GA tix are not going to be around for ever so you could do a turn around. SOMEBODY is going to want these tickets. FO SHO!
I didn't buy any more. I'm not too pissed, I'm just glad we have ga tix in the first place.
QuoteI didn't buy any more. I'm not too pissed, I'm just glad we have ga tix in the first place.
I'm pissed about this, too. I paid extra for my floor seats because I didn't want the 300 level that Ticketmaster was offering.
>:(
I should be thankful I live reasonably close to NYC and won't have to pay extra for plane tickets like some awesome devoted fans, but still...I feel ripped off.
anyone else just now get an email from MMJ about the ticket release? A bit late folks!

Yep...just got it. Thanks be to CC and those close to the band for getting the forum folks the news first! :-*
I could have gotten GA seats today, but my gf and her friend rather have seats for the show. If there are any 100 level seats closer to where I am now (Sec. 94)then I might do an upgrade.
dump her.

Hey Jerzee, its floyd11554 from the inforoo board. I've been pulling sec. 108, 123, and 106 recently of of ticketbastard. Those would get you closer to the stage than sec. 94 and its only a few rows higher.
Thanx man. Maybe I will e-mail both right now and see if they want to upgrade. Karma to you when i get back over to Inforoo ;)

Well, from reading on this board and my message board, it seems like people got the tickets that they wnated. Of cource you will get scalpers, but I think the public won this round.
I missed the email about this on sale which sucks and i did not get any tickets that i would want. I was looking for ga if anybody has any extras please contact me
hflpjtrade@optonline.net
i logged on to ticketmaster at noon and pulled up 1 GA ticket easily. in restrospect i should have gotten a few and distributed them to board members.
Argggghhhhh.....still need just [size=18]1[/size] more GA ticket for one lonely friend. I NEED to be dancing with her on NYE (and how lonely for her to be without her friends). If anyone can help me (us) out, email me please!

Stub hub has a seating chart. i don't think you will have to worry about sound in 132.

The sound will be amazing! It's the greatest arena in States - possibly the world.

Okay kiddies, I just got the green light for NYE @ MSG...trust me, it's been a hassle, but I'm fired up. The only hang-up is some good seats. Who's gonna help me out?
Peace and Jacket...Thomas :)

Hi everybody. If you can't go to the show I don't have any tickets to trade but I just want like a level up from the floor so me and my girlfriend can sit and enjoy the show. I've been up front a bunch of times for MMJ so I don't really mind not having general admission seats. Also NYE is my birthday.
