PreSale for Salt Lake City

[musearemyrockgods]

I am very disappointed in the presale for the Salt Lake City show on September 19th. I am a devoted fan and had preregistered on this website prior to the 8th, and thought that the presale would be fantastic. I ended up buying 8 tickets and they weren't great seats, but I assumed they were the best available. When ticket sales opened up for everyone this morning, there were way better seats available. I couldn't buy them because I couldn't afford to buy 8 additional tickets. So the presale was a huge joke. I'm so sad.

it's always iffy with presales in regards to reserved seating.

This was stated on the Members area where the code was listed:

 

"Please note that where available, we have made every effort to ensure that a range of seats and standing tickets are for sale in these pre-sales, but quantities and types of ticket available will vary across the dates. More tickets in all categories will be available in the general sales."

 

So it's kind of a risk and you can't assume that the pre-sale will hoard all the closest seats as of course they keep an alloted amount of the closer and better view seats for general sale as well.

I won't participate in a presale again. Thanks.

Keep in mind the pre-sales DO have good tickets. And bad.

 

Think of the arena as a pizza, and the presales usually have a (small) piece of it. So, some GA, some good seats, and some bad.

 

If you get to a pre-sale late, there's often a chance you can get better seats from the general sale. However, shows that sell out fast, you're sometimes better off taking the pre-sale.

 

There's just no way they would let ALL the good seats sell out during a pre-sale.
