Does this mean a second Philly show is in the works .........

But for the sale on Saturday

Should I

a.) Camp outside the box office?

b.) Camp outside an Acme market?

c.) stay at home and try one finger typing on comcasttix.com while dialing the 1800 number?

answers on a postcard please.

OMG i'm losing it

[sockii]

>Fiction Plane opens both shows.

Hmm, yes. That does make you wonder, doesn't it?

(God, they can't even write their press releases without messing things up!)

[animal]

Sockii you crack me up.

Well I gotta go, Lets see what tomorrow brings

[animal]

Sockii, I'm back

[quote="sockii"]Vince, where on the Comcastix page can you save any info? I've been looking for anything where you can register your info, with no success...[/quote]

[quote="Divemistress of the Dark"]Hey sockii and others...folks are reporting on TPT.com that you may wind up with cancelled tickets, if you're buying more than the 4 fan club / 2 bb / 6 general ticket allotment per household.

Crossing fingers for you that this is some weird anomaly and that it's a per-show limit, not per-tour. Apparently if you've already received tix in the mail, you're safe from the cancellation hall monitors at Ticketmaster.[/quote]

Holy Crap - this almost happened to me - I was able to snag 2 BB codes and signed onto my TicketMaster account on one screen and my husband's account on another. We each have different credit cards on record, so I thought I was being all slick, until I realized that our billing addresses are, obviously, the same. I had a coniption fit, but thankfully it was not picked up. I have been frantically checking our accounts to see if the tix got cxld and I just saw tonight that they have been printed and are on their way.
That being said, just make sure that your CC, billing and shipping info differs and you should be AOK.
Also, those limits are per show, not for the entire tour, AND you can have 2 BB and still go in and get your 6 General Admission without getting the kibash - I speak from experience and a few extra gray hairs.
Good luck to you - if it goes like Giants Stadium did, you should be fine!!

Thanks Vince, on less step I will have to go through in the confusion.

[sockii]

Thanks for the info, Vince and Donna!

Wow, I'm gonna be SO GLAD when I get through this weekend and all my ticketing trauma should be over...this month has been way too stressful!

[animal]

Found out for BB presale. you need to be logged into reward site then code will be available at 10:00am. A link from Reward to Comcast tix will be available for the presale.

for Concert Venue in Philadelphia, immediately link to ComcastTix via the direct link shown on the Code screen (you may not access the Philadelphia presale in any other manner)

Hope this helps

[sockii]

Well, after all the stress, looks like I got the BB tickets for my friend after all - she owes me a stiff drink next time I see her for all of this!

Logged into her BB membership, generated passcode, went to comcastix, used her cc info so I wouldn't get even possibly tagged having done a BB sale previously, got section 108 on first try for $90 tickets ($225 was ONLY available as center field, which she told me she definitely didn't want, short person and all!).

Actually I found it a bit less painful than ticketbastard, truth be told. Seemed to run a lot quicker and they give you a longer (10minute) hold on the tickets than ticketbastard does.

Now, wish me luck getting my OWN tickets in the fan club presale tomorrow!

[animal]

Just secured 2 ($90) tickets on the field Section JJ row 3

I can't believe I'm going to see the Police. Yay

Good luck to all those getting tickets in the next few weeks

[sockii]

Congrats, animal! I'll let you know how I make out in the fanclub presale tomorrow...

[animal]

Thankyou Sockii for the tips & tricks.

On the off chance I saw one of my work colleagues this morning that I know buys a lot from Bestbuy. Asked him if he was a BB reward member and did he get an email. Sure enough he was and gave me the info.

I wouldn't even have thought of it, so thank you once again.

Good luck tomorrow

Well, the one person I knew who has a rewards zone account and was going to get me a code for Philly got a code for Hershey not realizing that you can only get one code for the whole tour. Turns out I can't go to Hershey and all of my friends who want to see The Police want Philly tix. So now I will have to fight it out with masses Sat. morning. Unless I win tickets on WMMR. They're "beating the box office" all this week with Police tix for Philly. I think you just have to be the "lucky caller". I won Rush tix from MMR once, but in order to get them I had to win a limbo contest in their studios. There's an idea for a thread... "What would you be willing to do to win Police tix?"
