Post here if you got completely screwed by iTunes/Ticketmaster

LoveJones · 07-12-2007, 09:08 AM

Who else got kicked off after getting in right at 10am??

I was trying to get tickets for Tower Theater right at 10am sharp and there was nothing. This is complete garbage, either they didn't reserve enough presale tickets or something else is wrong. This is ridiculously dissapointing and iTunes is an utter joke.

Guess it's ticketmaster.com at 10am on Saturday with the rest of the masses.

vahn · 07-12-2007, 09:09 AM

Yeah, this is bullshit, I got on it right at 10, and no matter what there are no tickets to be found.

You might want to try Philly again..I am trying for Orpheum and get jackshit, but I got some Loge seats for Philly after trying for 10 minutes for Boston

skippy · 07-12-2007, 09:13 AM

I got orchestra seats for Philly for both the 21st and the 22nd. Hopped on at 10 and and no problems.

apetulantfrenzy · 07-12-2007, 09:15 AM

I think unless you were going for 1 ticket it was pretty tough.

I got greedy, had two tickets in a shitty spot, and released them to get better seats. After that I could only get 1.

Nidhogg · 07-12-2007, 11:13 AM

I know I did.

I pre-ordered Zeitgeist specifically for the presale, but they neglected to send me any code despite the fact that I downloaded the entire thing through iTunes. I sent e-mails for help that never got answered. So basically I bought the fucking thing through iTunes for no reason.

Fuck you, world. Fuck you all.

Yup, me too! So fucking pissed right now. Well anyway atleast my bro still got 4. I can still go on Mon. I'll have to get tix on Saturday for Tuesday since I invited all these people to go

If it makes you feel better, the pre-sale code probably wouldn't have helped you get good seats. I think all the good ones were saved for the general public on-sale.

JRiordan · 07-12-2007, 11:21 AM

Not screwed, BUT ticketmaster is currently completely DOWN for me right now. No problem loading any other sites. wtfdog

I got tickets for Philly's Monday show, but my friend who is getting them for us for Sunday ended up getting screwed because they pre-sale tickets apparently sold out almost immediately. It sucks, because it's obvisouly the only reason she bought the iTunes album. Guess we'll just have to try again on Saturday, with all the commonfolk.

Nothing will help me feel better.

Well, actually, if that's true I do feel a little better.

Steve Holt · 07-12-2007, 11:43 AM

I got three tickets for the Columbus show this morning with no problem. i guess i wasn't supposed to post here.

I think it is true. From what I can tell for the Atlanta show, none of the Pit seats were released for the general admission show, and the closest any person got was a single ticket somewhere around the 20-25th row.

I'm guessing they have to be holding alot of tickets back for all the shows.

Exactly what happened to me. I am vexed. Terribly vexed.

Well, if its any comfort to everyone here...
THe Vancouver show has a presale happening right now for people with football season tickets. wtf. No itunes presale, just a presale for people who'll end up getting tickets just cause they can. Gah.

Watch, contact TM..how much you want to bet you got suspended.

Ben Linus · 07-12-2007, 12:41 PM

I got screwed a different way. .... 10 minutes before the pre-sale started (or thats when I found out)...the San Diego pre-sale had been taken down. Now they are saying the show will be moved to a different venue.

More then likely, our pre-sale codes will be invalid because the on sale date probably wont be this Saturday, that and the pre-sale ends tomorrow.

Fuck you ticketmaster, fuck you apple.

Cool As Ice Cream · 07-12-2007, 12:57 PM

what? troubles with buying pumpkins tickets online? such a thing has never been seen!

gerard drouot fanclub!

Eem · 07-12-2007, 12:58 PM

I got third row loge seats for Philly at about 10:20 after giving up, really.

I just tried again, and there they were. It's the best place to sit at tower also. Awesome seats.

el_hemeno · 07-12-2007, 01:00 PM

No code, but still hoping for some tickets at some point to St Paul and Normal.

i suppose the passcodes are tied to the user account or something? i dont do itunes because im against software that tries to take over your computer..and.. im a linux user.. soo.. but if they are general passphrases, someone should post it up so i can buy tickets before they sell out.. then ill post the bootleg on my server.. if anyone wants to be generous, hit me up by attaching an @hotmail.com to my username..

Effloresce · 07-12-2007, 03:52 PM

In some places presale tix might be worse. But for my show (AJ Palumbo) I don't even think it matters, as most of the seats are just general admission (not even really seats, just a designated area to stand).

ZephZero33 · 07-12-2007, 03:58 PM

You guys may be the lucky ones, possibly saving the 12 bucks and probably getting better seats.

JRiordan · 07-12-2007, 04:13 PM

I was getting screwed HARD because they blocked my IP address for too many ticket searches/releases

Then I fucked them by using a proxy server based in URAGUAY and got my fucking Vegas ticket. GA Floor!!!!! The Pearl looks sick!

Right on! Fuck TM, they are fucks for blocking people in the first place (and NOT posting that it could happen on their site).
