Your experience with getting tickets on pre-sale?

What's everyone's experience with this so far? I'm curious to know how cutthroat it might be for me come tomorrow morning ;)

All I can say is don't expect much.

We were on right at the time for Toronto tickets and got crammed in the back. We were scared that tickets were going so fast so we bought them. Not 10 mins later, someone else got in the front section. :roll: Many people never got any tickets to pop up for them at all, so I suppose I should consider myself luck.

There is no rhyme nor reason to it. If you get in and don't get good seats right off, don't fret, there will be more along. IF you can get it to display them for you.........!

I had no luck on the Rush pre-sale, however on the ticketmaster presale, I was able to get lower level albeit 20 some rows up. I think any closer than that and you are paying a ticketbroker or someone on EBAY. Good luck....

Usually the best available seats come up first with so many people being logged on at the same time trying to score. Sometimes if you say no and try again better ones pop up kind of like spinning your wheels in cyber lottery. I can only say keep trying Rush on.

The flood of people earned me my choice of six tickets...three sets of 2.

I took a little further back from the stage in order to enjoy the show without neck strain.

I was offered second section back, 7th row for Sacramento (a little closer than halfway back).

Not good enough!

:evil:

I know that's a sore spot with you. Don't hold it against me.

Pay regular price for crappy tickets, or an outrageous price for great tickets? At this point in my life, the experience will be worth the money.

I never would hold that against anybody... Its not your fault somebody sucked up all the good tickets before us fans had a chance. I would do the same thing if I had the jack. I don't blame you at all. It is bullshit you have to resort to that because of these scumbags.
