Anyone else crashing Ticketmaster, waiting for Taylor Swift tickets?

[MamaMermaid]

I wanted to go but knew it would be nuts and didn't care enough. I hope everyone has a blast that scored tickets!

DD24 got through at about 2:45 for Kansas City. DD21 thought the seats were alright. Don't know what they paid.

Have no idea what it took to get tickets, but apparently I'm going, LOL.

Definitely not music I want to go listen to, but my daughter is going bonkers about it now, LOL.

Actually, I'm the backup plan. Ex bought 3 tickets and I'll go if the other daughter doesn't, which she probably won't. I'll splurge for her and get a hotel room to spend the night and spend the next day roaming the city.

Here's hoping that you don't have to go! Seriously, I think I'd lose my mind if I had to sit through it.

Ticketmaster is still just the worst though. I really respect the few artists that have tried to buck their system, though It seems nobody has enough juice to do so.

I read a story about a week ago about a bridal party that reserved rooms in a hotel months ago in some city. The hotel cancelled them because Taylor Swift will be in town that same day and the hotel expected to get triple the rates from TS fans.

The bridal party complained online, the hotel got slammed on Twitter, and they ended up reinstating the reservation for free as an apology.

Meh, they endure my Pink Floyd, I can handle Taylor Swift for an evening for her. We're country bumkin farmers. Going to the big city is a treat, LOL.

My daughter's best friend was in the queue for 8 hours yesterday for Nashville (Just INSANE!). They had about given up with the queue started moving like crazy). They ended up getting very good lower level seats for a reasonable price. Luckily we had thought to make hotel reservations two days ago and let me tell you they have JACKED UP the prices. We are staying outside of Nashville one night for a normal price and then a 20 minute walk from the stadium for the night of the concert. We were looking last night, there isn't a hotel room now to be had anywhere close to the stadiums. I swear it was easier for Harry Styles!

I was in that Nashville queue as well and it was brutal. 6 hours. But the last 29 minutes were rapid fire and then it was a race to get tickets before the dreaded “another fan beat you to these seats” message. We ended up in 300 section. Oh well. I’m just happy I got some at all. Just booked our hotel for that night—3/4 mile from the stadium and 1/2 mile from Music Row for $450. I figured I better take that…

Looks like it crashed again today

I was able to get through the capital one line for Tampa tickets in an hour and a 1/2 I needed 5 but couldn’t find any 5 tickets together but I was able to get 4 tickets. They are good seats in the lower bowl, not cheap and part of some package that I need to figure out what’s included.

 

[piglet1979]

I finally got through and everything was gone. I will try again on Friday.

 

[C&Jx2]

I'll try for the general sale on Friday but it was nuts yesterday. I really want some for my daughter's Sweet 16!

 

[C&Jx2]

Sounds like it went better than the Harry Styles presale when presale codes didn't actually mean you could get tickets.

It went about the same lol. We tried both.

 

[RangerPooh]

Instead of buying TS tickets I bought Lizzo tickets for one of our daughters. Cheaper and less wait.

TS would be great to see, but not at the prices and wait involved.

We didn't get them either. Will be trying Friday. I am getting them for my daughter for Christmas.

Maybe someone will cancel, leaving open a Blank Space....

I dunno guys, I can't say that I'm a fan either but this may one day be something you'll boast about--she is seriously talented and could well become a legacy act. I was too cool to go see Elvis in the mid 70s, strategic error on my part.

I don't find her to be seriously talented at all. In fact, if she wasn't such a naive girl entering that class of people with her dating at her very young adult age, she wouldn't have a career. I think she should be paying John Mayer royalties from many of her songs, LOL.

Yeah, I mean, she's never impressed me. All of her songs have that same stacatto rhythm (or lack therof really) and they are mostly about being really nasty to other people, especially those she has dated. She strikes me as a bit of a narcissist who can never be wrong and is always feuding with people or sueing or being sued. At some point, maybe it's you? I get that she has a lot of fans on this thread, but that's just my take on it.

Dang, you all are throwing shade at T-Swiffles like she was Nickeback with bangs.
