I was denied anyone actually get these tickets... check your e-mails
denied :'(
I haven't heard anything yet.
Time to start making phone calls
denied... :(
Well Iam going to try first thing saturday morning. Worse case Iam cancelling my reservations
<~~~shut out too....all 5 sources that I had try. Sucks. Fuck this! I fucking hate this system, it sucks and Phish needs to know. Why the fuck would you come back and have a show @ Hampton fucking Coliseum??? Why not a place where we all could enjoy it. Well, actually I'm sure there are reasons for it, but I'm still pissed. I'll try like hell for tickets on Saturday, but if anyone gets tics and needs a hotel, let me know - I've got one booked 2 miles from the venue @ $116/night. King size bed w/ a pull-out couch, plenty of room. I'll for sure be hitting up summer tour, and am keeping my fingers crosseds that they don us w/ their presence @ another awesome Limestone event....and if so, we'll have to rage it there instead.
if you really want tix and money is not an issue...

Personally I think it sux that scalpers are making so much off the tix. $300-$900 for GA, are you kidding me? By doing this it makes it almost impossible for the true phans to buy tix for the shows.
I think the reason nobody we know got tickets is because so many scalpers hacked the preorder. I mean to me its obvious. Go onto jambase.com and check around only about 6 people on there even got tickets. Those tickets pirates have rosters of people to sign up for that type of shit, totally blows. I wonder how much my hotel is going to fuck me for cancelling my room if i get no tickets
I'm still not sure if I got tickets yet :/
Usually if you cancel far enough in advance they cut you a break. Not with sites like Priceline though :/
Rob I wouldn't sweat it - my hotel is giving me up to 3 days prior to the event to cancel. Even with online booking sites, it's usually not that bad. In fact when I first booked my room it was through hotwire, but I cancelled it that day & rebooked it directly through the hotel to save a little $$. Hotwire let me cancel w/ no fees or anything, so you may be alright.
Either way I agree w/ Scott - it's the scalpers/ticket agencies (one in the same, no?) that fuck this whole thing up, trying to make a quick buck. It's bullshit. Not one person I know got tickets. Hmmm.....
We should get ahold of Phish somehow... maybe we can talk them into holding a phree phest.
I didn't get any...Then again I didn't try. Spending my funds on Umphrey's NYE. Waiting for summer tour. I can't afford to go to VA pay for hotels and concert tix. :(
But damn all you guys got denied? I know more than a few folks on the Umphrey's board got tix.
Good luck with ticketmaster guys.
Out of our group of ~10 heads trying to go....approximately 0 for 40. With those numbers you think 1 person would have hit something.
If I get tickets and no one else does, I'm gonna walk up to a scalper, ask him how much he's selling it for, ask him to see the ticket to make sure it's genuine, and once I get it a hold of it I'll rip it in half and exhange a few unkind words with him...

that sounds like a plan to me. :)
This is effin' ridiculous man! I've been on the site all morning, finally got through, and at 10:01 they say "no tickets match your request"
3 tries no tickets :-\ guess i'll have to wait for summer tour
OHHHHHH SHIIIIIIIIIIT!
got a ticket for Sunday....just 1. At like 10:20.....weird. Completely random....was ready to give up, then I start trying for just 1 ticket, keep getting denied, then *poof*....I'm through!
Kinda sucks though....just 1 for Sunday. Not sure what I'll do w/ it yet. Hampton is a long way from Maine, and 1 ticket for Sunday, although worth it, might not be realistic. We'll see. I'll for sure be trying to get tickets between now & then anyways. If I can get 1 more Sunday ticket for the wife, I'm there for sure.
room cancelled >:( Coventry -> This = Phish F**king the Fans x2
I didn't get tickets either. Hopefully we'll all be able to meet up this summer for a concert...
No tickets. No one I know got tickets. I refuse to pay scalped prices and I think as a community all phish fans should refuse to buy scalped tickets. Fuck the scalpers. The more we buy, we only encourage.
Looks like hopefully Vegas > West Coast Tour > Festival for me. :)
Walker...
I got one for sunday as-well my buddy and i are going... I had lacrosse practice all morning so i set my moms computer up so all she had to do was click, and she said the same thing... she was calling and clicking and at like 10:15 she ended up with one for sunday... pretty pumped about it,
would have enjoyed the three day run though... this system just sucks...
Right on Stiles. If I do end up going we'll have to hook up for a beer or 7 beforehand. If I don't go & you end up needing a hotel, I'll slide you mine.
I think weir all on agreement here that this system blows - hard.
On a side note, I did hear a rumor about a West Coast tour, followed by an East Coast summer tour, ending up in Limestone. I wonder how many kidz will end up showing up for that one. 100k? At least, I say. I think the most we ever had @ Limestone was around 75k. How many actually made it into Coventry?
Coventry was the worst fest ever. More like a wet refugee camp. IMO We should get a 40 ft rv for the new fest in Limestone and fucking get down ;D At IT and Coventry there were some good bands playingout of RVs in the lot we should do a super jam out off rv generator
