I got fan club tickets, but I didn’t look at the package offers. So you can get good seats without the package deals.

I didn't look at the package offers either. We got tickets for Newark night 1, Mohegan Sun, and MSG night 2.

I'm happy with them

Your welcome. Needless to say I won't be buying anything from the top 3 price levels!

Crap! Those extra fees are going to kill me. Becky, do you print your tickets at home or still get them in the mail? Also, can you please explain to me how Ticketmaster works now? It's been 9 years since I've had to buy tickets with TM. I'm going to look around the website for practice on Thursday because I have a password for Wisconsin. It seems that tickets are distributed very differently now. Also, if you don't buy presale tix do you still have a good chance to get good seats during public sale. I don't want floor, but would like them within the 1st 3 lower levels sections. I'm going to St. Paul so they don't go on sale until Feb. 15 or 16.

I’m looking for Charlotte tix, but didn’t buy today. I’ll keep an eye on them, I usually buy closer to show these days. And yes, the fees are beyond ridiculous!

We got floor seats for Raleigh, Charlotte, and Atlanta. The seat prices were the same for all three; the service charge was $27 for Charlotte but $63 for Atlanta and Raleigh (per ticket). I don't understand it.

I selected Lower Level, but even within 10 seconds of the presale starting, I got the “nothing available matches your request” message. The last time, I was able to “pick your own tickets” option, but that was not available this time either. So my best advice is when they offer you “best available” if it’s decent, grab it. I don’t like floor, but it’s better than 3rd level!

Thanks for responding Becky. I had 3rd level for my very 1st Bon Jovi concert (was desperate). Never again did I make that mistake.

I forgot to answer, I get them sent to me by mail. It doesn’t cost anything to do that. I figure if they are already charging so much for a convenience fee, they can print real tickets!

Ok. Thanks! I agree. When I buy tickets for Iowa, there is always an extra charge, but I think it's only $1 each so not bad really.
