Anybody else find it impossible to get tickets this morning? I've had bad luck in the past (flew to Vegas once, requested the wrong date for tickets (which you never see until Will Call), bought air and hotel around that date (that I requested, in writing, even though it was incorrect), showed up at Hard Rock - THE NIGHT AFTER THE SHOW - YUP, it was luvly) but this was more frustrating, because I checked and rehearsed, knowing my bad luck. I had two Pit VIP seats ready and didn't know my Ticketmaster Password (a warning that would have been good, since they don't have a foolproof plan if you hapen to be one of the unlucky ones who doesn't receive it and lose your seats). As the clock ticked (it only gave me 2 minutes my FIRST try - noticed that time allotment subsequently increased in my later attempts - oh, and you didn't need a password for the VIP tickets, but you did for the regular - ?), I requested my temporary password, which never came. I tried to request a new one and it told me I could not, because I had already requested one in the last 24 hours. I tried to set up a new account, but I could not, because I already had one at my email address. (At this point, I'm on my third set of seats, about 10th row instead of front). Just checked my spam folder. No temporary password. Tried calling, sat on hold, finally used automated, which told me the tickets weren't on sale yet. :-0 OMG I have none. I waited for John to come to this venue for 25 years. You would think Ticketmaster would have this figured out by now. If they can't, why do the artists use them? Ugh. And no, venting has not made me feel better. I think Ticketmaster should take of this. What do you think my chances are of that?!
