Is anyone else on hold on the phone for Mansfield? I have hold music playing...someone could pick up at any second and take my order, but probably I\'ll just be on hold for 45 minutes and then it will disconnect. I\'ve never even gotten to the "hold music" stage on the phone for any onsale before. Oh well, trying not to get my hopes up, I\'m sure it\'s just a ruse.
what # did you use? I can\'t get through
i\'ve been here for mansfield since 10am:
Due to a high volume of traffic and longer than average wait times,
you have been placed in a temporary waiting room.
If you continue to wait, you will be randomly placed in a queue to continue.
You can also check back later when our site becomes available.
Thank you for your patience.
i did manage to grab 2 good seats for knoxville that i could hopefully trade or flip for some loot though.
better to stay on in the virtual waiting room? or keep attacking the website
congratulations, livenation! you\'ve managed to make today even more annoying than yesterday! bravo!

So yeah, I was on hold for 10 minutes listening to hold music.
Then I get "Please leave a message at the tone" and it beeps. Of all the random
**** I could\'ve heard at that moment....
Wiseass that I am, I start leaving a message telling them to call me back if they have any Phish tickets.
I was about 10-15 seconds into my wiseass message when someone picked up.
"Thank you for calling Live Nation, how can I help you?"
5 minutes later, I have 4 tickets in Section 1.
I couldn\'t make this story up if I tried. I just hope I\'m actually awake right now and not still in bed having a weird dream.
I absolutely cannot believe it. I was 0-for-lifetime getting through on the phone for any tickets. Probably about 0-for-50.
If I had hung up instead of leaving that wiseass message, I wouldn\'t have gotten in.
Crazy.
Seth, what # are you calling?

GET OUT OF THE WAITING ROOM!!!this could be the most annoying thing of all. i\'ve had a firefox and a safari window in the waiting room since 10am. 10:25, i decide to open up an IE window. i go to livenation.com, click on \'find tickets\' on the front page for phish in ma, and i get right through and get 2 tickets with no waiting room whatsoever.
**** section 11 on the
**** lawn. UGH.
can\'t even get to a waiting room on that number

That\'s still a miracle you should be psyched. I left the waiting room at 10AM and have gotten to the confirmation word stage about 50 times since then but have had error messages every time. Leaving the waiting room earlier would not have guaranteed any success at all. It\'s definitely annoying as hell, however, the fact that you got anything is incredible. If you don\'t want to be on the lawn then sell them to a friend for face or scalp \'em for $250 each, you can\'t lose.
i think knoxvilletickets.com should be in charge of all shows, lol

It was the miracle money shot at the stroke of 10. At this point I\'m sure it\'s useless.
