thanks again for helping us secure great seats!! it matters

just wish they would do will call, day of show, only, on presales, cause that would help us
and virtually eliminate the scalpers from getting presale tickets

don't get me wrong...I wasn't slamming Tony.  The GTA is a tough market for tickets with more than its fair share of scalpers.

When nothing came up after several attempts right at 10:00am...I was expecting it was a "typical" Toronto pre-sale.

It does suck a bit that I was in right away and TM was asleep at the switch.

Oh well.

We do make the premium tickets will call only and have done that in the past for the front 10 rows of the top priced tickets to deter scalpers. Same thing with the passwords, we don't post them until the last second to try to deter it.

Just checked and still great seats avail. in Hamilton.  Second row premiums available and also 3rd row in Orchestra for general seating at the highest ticket price.
Thanks Tony for all your help for fans getting tickets.  No system is perfect (and your control is limited) but we appreciate the advanced buying.   Smiley

Yesterday no matter what I did I could not get any results for the first 10 rows when trying to buy the VIP pack. Today, however, I was able to get 2 tickets in row CC so they must have the kinks worked out now.

Yes, seems yesterday about an hr. after the pre-sale started there were premiums available, must have been a rush at 10 a.m. like other cities experienced.  Glad you got something in the third row, enjoy the show if you haven't seen it yet!  (it's worth it!!)

I will! Saw it from the 4th row at Massey Hall in Toronto in February and it was amazing. Also got seats in row 3 for the London show. Going to be a great weekend!
