Not so sure about that. Sting.com usually busts those people if fan club tix come up on ebay. I think the scalpers get their pick first somehow. I just don't get it. Damn, I want to win the lottery. I'd have the 1.8 million for a show of our own!!! m In a message dated 2/16/07 4:37:14 AM, justanne(a)ns.sympatico.ca writes: > The lightbulb just went on in my head (I'm reading this at 6AM -- getting > my clock readjusted for UK time as we leave tomorrow for a lovely week > abroad).

Did anyone understand the email from the fan site that referenced gold and silver ticket packages? I followed the link to Ticketmaster but couldn't find any mention of the bundles.

Vancouver Public Onsale
by Dan Eliot 17 Feb '07

Well, the "regular-non-bestbuy-non-fan-club-non-hot-seat" sale was interesting. I started off looking for cheap seats, and got offered some serious nose bleeds. Within a few minutes, I was being offered seats behind the band (which I have never done since being behind U2 in 1987). At this point, I switched over to "best available". Anyway, seats were available for a long time. The amazing part was that about 10:30 am, floor tickets showed up for a few minutes in the row 40-43 zone. I grabbed a single seat in row 43 on the floor (after losing a row 40 seat due to being cut off). After about 10:40 am, nothing came up again for a while until a little after 11:00am, when some seats behind the band came up. So anyway, I'll be mid-floor in Vancouver. My first Police show ever. Looking forward to it :-) Dan ---- Dan Eliot dan(a)u2source.com

Warning

I just noticed in the membership details on thepolicetour.com that my membership is set up for automatic renewal next year. I'm assuming this is default for everyone. The instructions for changing this include "cacelling" your membership. I'll do this before Feb 2008 (unless they are still on tour and you get another chance at passcodes for tickets). _________________________________________________________________ Dont miss your chance to WIN 10 hours of private jet travel from Microsoft Office Live http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/mcrssaub0540002499mrt/direct/01/

This is the "Live In Hatfield" concert. Excellent concert with first ever live performance of Message In A Bottle. I would have been about 10 at the time but wish I was older as this gig was 10 miles from where we lived in England!!! Bugger another missed oppurtunity!!

So do you think the best buy codes will get us in at noon, then police codes at 2? I have to be out of my house at 11 central time, I need noon! Guess it's a wait and see kind of a day at this rate. thanks for the input. michelle In a message dated 2/16/07 10:45:18 PM, bruce.greenwood(a)rogers.com writes: > > Just a heads up - The policetour.com website says the presale for the second > Boston show is Feb 18th at 2:00 (as opposed to noon). > > Bruce > > From: police-bounces+bruce.greenwood=rogers.com(a)mailman.xmission.com [mailto:police-bounces+bruce.greenwood=rogers.com@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Stingfan222(a)aol.com Sent: Friday, February 16, 2007 10:48 PM To: ryder(a)cesmail.net; police(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: Re: [Police] second boston date added! Thanks for clarification on that. Seems like we don't get a straight answer from anyone! I'm debating whether to blow my code on that or wait for the Dallas presale. This is more stressful than any other ticket buying. This staggered sales has me hesitant to leave make appointments for anything much less leave the house! michelle In a message dated 2/16/07 4:37:48 PM, ryder(a)cesmail.net writes:
