USA Tickets & Seating Choices

I don't know. The only email I got from MSG today was to buy tickets to the Rockettes!

Wow, I am really disappointed that Bruce is using the Platinum seat option for Ticketmaster.  Platinum tickets are basically Ticketmaster scalping:

"Ticketmaster's Official Platinum seat program enables market-based pricing (adjusting prices according to supply and demand) for live event tickets..."

What are Official Platinum Seats? (ticketmaster.com)

I imagine there will be groups of "Platinum" tickets in sections near the stage but won't encompass all of the close in seating (Paul McCartney tickets were like that).

Thanks

I've found this page with ticket prices for the show at the Wells Fargo Center in Philly on March 16, 2023:

Holy shit, those are way more expensive than I would have thought. Guess I will be limited to 1 show on this tour.

I sense a sens of cashing in on this tour

Yeah, it's not like he has some elaborate stage show to fund (like P!nk or the Rolling Stones).  It's just all profit. 

Just for fun, I pulled my Rising Tour GA Floor ticket and it was $75.  I know inflation and all but my wages have not gone up 400% since 2002.

Damn 😳

Looks like I’ll be putting in for some OT

Anyone received a code yet?

Tonight they send codes except for a couple of venues like Philadelphia listed in the post above.

Fingers crossed. Any word on Philly? Noticed there was no option but haven’t heard details. Thanks Oats!

Good Lord. Those prices....

Whoops- just read…….Philly above

looks like I will be doing a LOT of weekend Work for ticket prices. Wow.  Really Bruce?

Still no email from TicketMaster. 

I forget exactly what I read but it was between 8:00 and 10:00 pm.  I remember that I was thinking it'll come during the All Star Game... hopefully.

Thanks Oats.  What shows did you pick for your top 2?

Baltimore and DC, the 2 closest geographically then it was the tri-state area.

Same, though with the prices, my quest to get to both of the DMV shows may just be tickets to 1 (especially if I get GA's).

Looks like I got selected for my 2nd pick (DC) and was snubbed for the Baltimore gig:

"We are happy to share that you have been selected and will have the chance to buy tickets during the Verified Fan Onsale for Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band at Capital One Arena on March 27th."

I haven't gotten one email....

I got one ... You're On The Waitlist 

Whoa, that sucks. Makes me wonder how many people put in for it (and how TM separates scalpers from regular folks).

I will add, I am not spending $250-$300 (+fees) for upper level seats so if that's all that's available, I will pass.  I imagine I won't be the only one so the wait list may end up coming through.

Well... Bruce Karma strikes again.  The wife got verified for Baltimore. DB, you try to grab 4 seats and I'll try to grab 4 also.  We can double date to both shows.

I just paid my kids fall college tuition this morning, not sure I can afford 2 shows. 

Well if u get 4, I'll paypal you right away.

Wanted MSG, got code for UBS. At these prices, I'll probably pass.

I got verified fan for... Albany, which is a pretty good haul from Maine but also a place resonant with Bruce memories for me. So wish me luck snagging something good enough to be worth living on cat food someday.

Scott,

Which venue in UBS?

My wife got a code for MSG. We will try for cheap seats for ourselves. I've already received a request to try for other prices. If I get through, I'll probably go for 4 tickets even though I'm only using 2. Somone somewhere will want them.

Someone... Somewhere... HERE, HERE, HERE!!! 

@Oats, UBS is the new arena venue at Belmont Park in Long Island. It will be a PITA to get to from where we're now living.

Bruce has finally done it.

He's reduced me to begging for tix.

I got verified for DC................. 2 GA ticket limit.  Not sure if I try for GA's knowing that the number of tickets for GA is a lot fewer and if it is a good idea or not. I guess you have to weigh the option to TRY for a ticket with the option to TRY for a tough ticket with less overall numbers....  add to the stress!

I'll make it work.  My college sweetie was from Long Island, many years ago.  She broke my heart,  This will make up for it.

or... you get 4 seats for DC while I get 4 for Baltimore and we both are twice as happy.

That is probably the angle I will try for- the pit IS the place to be, but I think playing the odds are better in this scenario.   4 will be the number!
