Popular Post Slave To The Network Posted November 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2023 Can someone please explain to me why GA/pit tickets cost like $400?? Like, what the fuck? I did not buy a pit ticket because of that. I instead got a seat that is a couple sections from the pit and I will check on prices closer to the show to see if things are more reasonable by then. I've never been in the pit for a Green Day concert and I was really looking forward to doing that this time. Ticketmaster can seriously die in a fire. Hardly any of the ticket price goes to the actual artist anyway because Ticketmaster is a greedy monopoly that pockets nearly everything for itself and screws fans and performers out of their money. This corporation is seriously evil. It's legalized scalping. I remember that my first Green Day show cost $50. Anyway... I'll stop now. I just had to get that out. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jengd Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I know this is the US tour thread but talking of fees, they aren’t even consistent! I paid £24.85 in fees for Glasgow and £17.70 in fees for Manchester, all e-tickets. 🤷🏼♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CherryBombs&Gasoline Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 And what’s the point of these fees anyway, especially for online tickets? Makes absolutely no sense at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post dallasthemenace Posted November 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2023 at the risk of sounding 'boomer-y' or something.. having seen both scenes play out, i'd much prefer to go back to the model where you had to be a brave motherfucker to go in the pit (of any show) instead of a rich one.. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there’s dynamic pricing going on, that price means that ticket comes with a basic VIP package. The regular pit tickets are less than that but there are so few that are sold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what I said earlier, ticketmaster is 🤑🤮 and we are post covid everyone's are expensive and this is a 3 band package but still this is not bad compared to others who did the dynamic pricing, green day did not.

But NGL Green Day can suck my ass too because ticket prices is not all because of ticketmaster. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think The Cure showed that artists can step in and have a say over things like dynamic pricing and vip. It doesn't seem like green day did dynamic pricing but I guess they're fine about vip platinum seats 🙄 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 24 minutes ago, Little Boy Named Booze said: A regular ticket is expensive and a platinum ticket is more expensive but for the same thing. It's not even made of platinum, is it? Not even digital platinum. Hey, that would be a cool song title! What's the most expensive way possible to see Green Day? I want that. Just put it on Lenny's tab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grohl Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 As far as I know there is no difference because platinum doesn't necessarily mean it's a VIP ticket. Platinum just means you pay more for what is supposed to be a good seat. Mitski had this for her tour too and I was so pissed after I overpaid 😩 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post suffoKate Posted November 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2023 There’s no way I go to this without pit tickets. I was in there for hella mega and it felt like being up front for the old shows. If I’m gonna pay hundreds for tickets then I’m gonna be as close as possible. Hella mega was great! I do think Rancid and Pumpkins are a huge upgrade (at least for my tastes) to the hella mega bands. Hopefully no more rock and roll all night. Just rock and roll some of the night and party every other day! good luck to everyone finding the best deal for you and your friends and families today! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueshadows Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Trying for live nation presale. But code not working yet and it’s not among the list of presale currently going in (I see GD mailing list, SP mailing list etc…) hopefully it works soon EDIT: in the queue now EDIT 2: saw regular pit tickets added them then it says no longer available 😒 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danieladoesthings Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I couldn't believe the prices of the fees. $47 each???? Gimme a break. These fees should be capped. I could have bought one more ticket for the amount of fees I paid. I also noticed that the seat for one row below my row, was $50 more....unbelievable??!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Tried the Live Nation sale today just for shits and giggles. Still no pit. And it's fucking pissing me off that they default you to the $700 VIP option when you click it, even though a cheaper VIP is available. It's so predatory and slimy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James11693 Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Starting to think that there weren’t even any pit tickets for todays presales.. Besides the VIP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Y'know what's also funny? The rest of the stadium is basically still available so I hope they have fun playing to a small group of "Calling all Saviors" VIPs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JardyOfSuburbia Posted November 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2023 For about two seconds I had an option for just a non-VIP pit ticket in Cincy and before I could process it was real it was gone. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
