greendaypunkmom Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I'm wondering how people did with the presale tickets........ I was on the link at 9:59------the very moment the tix were available, I entered my code and entered "best seats available"-------I got the second to last row at PNC in NJ and I'm upset beyond belief!!!!! I paid just under $300 for a nosebleed for me and my kids!! I'm sure other people have good stories, but this sucks!! So......success or "fail"???? Unfortunately, I'm a "fail".
BeachBum Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I got success close to the stage I will be able to see something yay
Harinezumi Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Aw, that sucks. Anyway, I just realized that I got an IC coupon code too, and I'm not going to travel to US any time soon. Does anyone still need the code (PM me if you want it)? (gave it to someone already.)
Anja Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I don't need my code either. So if anyone wants it, PM me.
Velocity Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I got success too. I'm going to PNC as well and I got a seat within the first 10 rows of section 103. But I only bought one ticket, I think that the more tickets you buy together, the worse of a spot you'll get. But I've been to several concerts at PNC before, and even when you're in the 300s the view isn't bad since it's a relatively small venue.
Ally Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Does this really need a thread? Glad you got seats though, when i got presale for manchester i got decent seats and was only waiting for 10 minutes in a queue
valentinesandcigs Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I got seats in the 300 section . I don't really give a shit though at least i'm in the building
Green Day Cellist Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I got tickets to the Colorado show, and I got middle seats row DDD out of AAA and AAA is right in the front row! sooooo happy So it's a definant Success!
Smoothed Out Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Hopefully a success in June (saying that I haven't got the tickets yet ) Aw that sucks for you
Hermione Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 Aren't they supposed to make the presale seats decent ones? Since people pay $20 a year to be in the Idiot Club and get almost nothing else for their money? The Idiot Club is rubbish.
dumbell2424 Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 My mum was on right at 10, and we got front row, center section. 'Tis awesome
cmrnmrphy Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 SO far the presale is fucking me over...since im not a club member I have to cross my fingers for life that i can still get some pit tickets on saturday
Holly Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I don't understand this code thing or really anything whats going on with this, but seen as I like in the UK the code I've been sent in my email isn't any use to me, so anyone that wants it just let me know. I don't know if its actually any use to anyone.
minorty13 Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I haven't been emailed my code yet and I've been a member for almost a year I emailed the club saying so but this is scaring the shit outa me!
newsflash777 Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I haven't been emailed my code yet and I've been a member for almost a year I emailed the club saying so but this is scaring the shit outa me! I thought you got it in December?
Heather! Posted March 24, 2010 Posted March 24, 2010 I just bought one ticket—I tried to get 2 at first and it gave me seats in FFF, but when I just put in for one, I got a seat in BBB second row! I haven't been emailed my code yet and I've been a member for almost a year I emailed the club saying so but this is scaring the shit outa me! I joined yesterday and they sent me my code this morning. Maybe call, or send them another email about it.
.:Whatsername:. Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Well, I'm hearing different things about this. I keep hearing that for the IC presale they didn't even have standing tickets available. But what the fuck, the IC presale is supposed to give out good tickets since there's nothing else worth paying $20 a year for on the Idiot Club. My mom was on there 10 exactly and we got seats in section 303 or somewhere up there for Toronto. At first I didn't care just because I thought all the available GA seats were sold out, but if they just didn't have any to be bought, I'll be pissed... I hope this is just a rumor.
greendaypunkmom Posted March 25, 2010 Author Posted March 25, 2010 I'm really just not understanding how I can be on the phone at exactlly 10 on the dot and get the last section, second to last row.........and then I scroll down to see that someone has seats near the front at the same venue! I'm completely not understanding this. I comprehend that I bought 4 tix and maybe if I only bought 2, seats would have been better............but SERIOUSLY---it couldn't get any worse!!!! Damn!
Prisca Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 This is getting me nervous. :/ Sad to hear about your ticket issues though.
greendaypunkmom Posted March 25, 2010 Author Posted March 25, 2010 $300?! wow. .........yeah.......$288 for 4 seats in the last section, second to last row! maybe i should stop bitching about it and be grateful im going......but this seriously sucks for me and my kids!!
.:Whatsername:. Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 Well, it seems that most of what people are saying is true. They must have screwed up and didn't have the GA tickets available at 10 am, because I just went on, and got floor tickets first try. I begged my mom and now owe my dad 89 dollars, but it'll be so worth it. Need someone to take my seat in the stands though. My mom will probably end up coming. Ticketmaster SUCKS.
greendaypunkmom Posted March 25, 2010 Author Posted March 25, 2010 I'm wondering how people did with the presale tickets........

I paid just under $300 for a nosebleed for me and my kids!! I'm sure other people have good stories, but this sucks!! So......success or "fail"???? Unfortunately, I'm a "fail". Everyone: I really want to add a footnote here..........I AM NOT COMPLAINING ABOUT THE IDIOT CLUB!!! I'm seeing responses saying that they suck and it's a waste of $20/year. That couldn't be further from the truth! Last year, for my $20, I won a contest to "jump the line" the day 21st CB was released and my daughter and I got to meet GD and have out cd's signed......BILLIE JOE GOT UP FROM HIS CHAIR AND HUGGED MY DAUGHTER!!!!! Then we got pit tix for the Philly sale, thanks to presales.........my daughter and I got to the arena at 9 am and sat in the rain all day......about an hour and a half before the show, a woman comes out and picks about a dozen people out of the front of the line (me and my daughter included) and we were escorted to a suite, went to soundcheck-----after souncheck, TRE GAVE HIS DRUMSTICKS TO MY DAUGHTER and we were allowed into the pit (right up against the rail) before the crowd rushed in!!! The Idiot Club is NOT bullshit--these are two events that never would have happened if not for IC!! Yes, I'm crushed about the location of the tix--it seriously sucks, and I'm happy for everyone who got great seats and/or pit tix........but please don't say IC sucks---I believe Ticketmaster sucks, but not IC in any way, shape or form.
bass boy Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 im not an IC member, but im getting a pre sale tommorrow because of The Edge. im so nervous.
The Disappearing Boy Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 .........yeah.......$288 for 4 seats in the last section, second to last row! maybe i should stop bitching about it and be grateful im going......but this seriously sucks for me and my kids!! oh, for 4 tix, thats ok. wait, thats (according to my calculator) $72 per ticket, i.e. £48 each? thats pretty good.
