is there any rhyme or reason to how the holds get sent out, cc company? region? seating area? or is utterly and completely random...
Well, whatever the process is, I woke up this morning to a $230 hold on my credit card and my gf has a $120 hold. I only put in for 2 tix to Hartford both nights and Mansfield. So, between the 2 of us we either doubled up on 1 show and got another one or scored all 3 shows... here\'s to hoping!
looks like I got 4 tickets out of my request for 8....hopefully 2 hartfords for each night
I have 7 shows out of the 14 I put in for.
Can only assume at this point the Greek, Tellirude and Jones Beach did not make the cut but at the same time those 7 might have made the cut.
3 hartford fri/3 spac sat! :banjug:
Wow...so...am I the ONLY person who is totally shut out? This makes me 0-for-20 with the preorders since Phish came back. wtf.
I\'ll be giving it my all on Friday with the onsales for Mansfield, Hartford, and Spac. We all know onsales are no picnic. If that doesn\'t work out, then someone please HELP! Any extras I ever come across automatically go to .info people as always!
seth, when i looked at like 9am there was nothing there and 20 min ago noticed the charge when i checked again. keep on looking...
the first round of emails went out, but that\'s it... there\'s still time...

i havent had any luck thus far with my card on phish lotteries. My mothers card was the one that got me those 5th row at spac last summer. I still havent heard anything yet about this round...
Well, I totally complained too early. I STILL don\'t have a credit card hold or charge, but the email is in!
TICKET MARKET GURU RETURNS FOR 2010![/B][/SIZE]
I got both Hartford, Spac Sunday and Mansfield. Surprisingly the only show I didn\'t get was Saratoga Saturday. Saratogas were by far the easiest northeast tickets last year. (Although Fenway and Albany ended up being free-ticket bonanzas outside the gates because so many people had over-purchased.)
Let the trading begin, here we go:
I need: SPAC Saturday 6/19. Just one is fine, or if two is easier we can do that.
Also, if you have better seats to one of the 4 shows below and I have tickets for a show that you\'re missing, we can make that work too.
I have:
-Hartford 6/17 2 lawn
-Hartford 6/18 2 sec 500
-Spac 6/20 2 lawn
-Mansfield 6/22 4 sec 11
Good luck all!

Ticket Market Guru Says:[/B]
Keep the faith George. Over-purchasing was definitely rampant last year. Last year people could not even give their tickets away at Fenway, Albany (both nights) and Knoxville. And those are just the ones I saw personally. I\'m sure Alpine was just as easy, maybe others. If you showed up without a ticket to those shows you could literally keep refusing free tickets until you found one for the section you wanted. Some shows are tough too, but we all know anything can happen on lot. It looks like the economy and the over-purchasing mistakes of last year might finally be catching up to the Phish ticket market.

:thumbsup: thanks Wolfy. look for me on lot with mah finger in the air
def not stressin about it to much. I would really like to hit up JB hopefully on a beautiful sunny day this time. I think the amount of north east dates will help my chances of scoring extras.

I\'m not sure that\'s accurate, unless of course you had no pending charges on your cc. I have an approved charge and I\'m just waiting for the email to come through Yahoo... apparently they are slower than everyone else? Keep the faith!
