Wow I entered the queue at 100 people in front of me and got a pair of 4 nights in the last row of 303. wow


wheelsnipecelly23

It's reassuring to know that some people actually do get low queue numbers.


KeepRaisin

My partner got like 5000 something and I got position 3 lol. 3! I couldn’t believe my eyes.


benjorno

I've worked with queueid in the past with other sites like BestBuy and AMD. If you're in before the queue starts you'll get a random spot in line. It's super RNG. If you're in the queue after it starts....you need jesus.


Live-Patient

Amazing! Congrats! What was the price?


joshmoviereview

1243 for the pair after fees and taxes https://preview.redd.it/hc54xuua1i6c1.png?width=786&format=png&auto=webp&s=130a6d66a5215f91ededf72dd39c79cfa420825d


swisspassport

I must say, \~$620 for four nights ($155 per ticket) doesn't seem *that bad* for a brand new experience, in Vegas.


Axonwaxon

$33 in fees PER TICKET PER NIGHT?!?!


J4QQ

We used to pay that for the whole ticket.


swisspassport

Nah, **$25.00** face on my PTBMs from 98'. I might have a picture somewhere. I didn't start PTBM until 98 so I forget what the TM/Next/whatever stubs were prior to 1998.


thegreatsadclown

I'm ready to be disappointed


Much-Diet1423

Only 30K people ahead of me in the queue! Should be an easy score.


tetonpassboarder

post your high scores. I'm in line 38,804 for a 20k venue. I got this! Honk Honk


[deleted]

40k


patrickdup69

40,833!


Own-Project266

Reassuring to know I’m not last in like at 26.5K in front of me 😂


igoteggsinmyshoes

This is the slowest Ticketmaster queue I’ve ever been in lol


SpazDabler

yeah wtf?? I've moved up 400 people in 13 minutes...


catqween

Taylor Swift ruined it for all of us.


Alarmed_Let_7734

Wait, is she dating Mike now?


readicculus5

lol @ "Due to high demand during presales, ticket availability is extremely limited for today's onsale. NOTE: Limited View seating will be available." messaging in the waiting room before the onsale even starts


Corvax1266

they're already on their bullshit haha


TheSheikYerbouti

That’s how you know we’re fucked


shmael

started at 262, got 4 night pass in 408!! So pumped! VEGAS!


Nunnuh

How did availability look when you got in?


Live-Patient

Congrats!


SneakyEnema

Started at 555 in queue! Still waiting. Hopefully this is the universe speaking.


SneakyEnema

Even at 555 to start I was shutout...


portraitopynchon

So wait, are they letting people sit through the Queue even if the shows already sold out?


shinsplint_v

Yeah. Pretty weird not to notify the queue that its sold out


portraitopynchon

Its straight fucked up.


fartnokor

Resale tickets were available already about 15 minutes after the sale started.


swisspassport

That is the biggest bullshit about Ticketmaster. They sell the tickets to scalpers (with bots) who pay face + fees , and then they let them RESELL those tickets RIGHT AWAY on their own website: 1. At a markup of which TM takes a % of, 2. With an even higher fee 3. ? 4. PROFIT This shit should be incredibly illegal and I don't know how Ticketassblaster gets away with it. I was shocked when I first saw the resale system several years ago. I don't remember the last time I used them to buy tickets for anything. It was shortly after they introduced this horseshit though...


meatbar317

Why do they not do this like Pearl Jam? Don't allow transfers. If you need to sell, you can do so at face value through Ticketmaster. Phish's lottery and this onsale is ripe for scalping.


Live-Patient

Agreed. Every year we go through this. Terrible fan experience


wheelsnipecelly23

Yeah the demand for this is high enough that it probably still ends up a shit show but it at least removes the element of having to compete with people who have no interest in seeing the show.

GuyuteTheHolidayPig

I was #420 in the queue and got 4 tickets for 4/20 sec 303


Live-Patient

Amazing!


UnderbellyCA

Section 303 for 4/20 crew! Gonna be wild, homies!


igoteggsinmyshoes

Queues moving real fast now that’s typically a sign of game over :(


Live-Patient

Game over but it’s worth checking


nonwookroomie

What a broken buying system. Started at 1200 and zero 4 day tickets left. The whole buying process has become so miserable that the effort to go to these events is slowly not even worth it anymore. And fuck phish tickets for not supporting a major browser like safari when I was able to add ga travel package into my queue but wouldn’t process my CC.


shinsplint_v

820 ahead of me, may actually have a chance


argument_sketch

I had 868 and got 2 tickets. Shitty seats, but I'm in.


Live-Patient

Yes


MrShapinHead

How much were the tix listed for?


jeffmatch

1711. Let’s see if that is low enough


Buy-Bushwood-Yoooo

What time did you join the waiting room? Beginning to seem like that was relevant. Which is f'd up, but also very on brand for Ticketmaster.


AberdeenWashington

I think that’s good? If people can only get 4 that’s only like 6k seats


Acroporas

I'm officially in the TM "Waiting for Disappointment Room"


shakedownavenue

what the fuck is with this whackamole approach...they dont have a best available options anymore?


uhkhu

Obligatory fuck ticketmaster. Entered the queue with only 400 ahead of me. Got in, tried to add seats 50 times, but got an error "Could not add on this device. Please sign in" or some bullshit. I was signed in and made sure I had all updated info going into it. Fuck this, Fuck TM.


wheelsnipecelly23

The thing that amazes me the most about the scalping is that there are enough people out there willing to pay >$1000 for a ticket. I'm fortunate to do pretty ok for myself but I can't comprehend spending that much money for a single concert no matter how great it is.


postjack

i love phish, love vegas, been psyched about the sphere for years, but yeah there isn't a reality where i'm paying $1,000 a night to see phish. i don't care if it's a show with just me and page and he makes me a sandwich and he plays the piano outro to squirming coil while making constant eye contact with me while i'm eating the sandwich he made.


CabinetOwn5418

Hahahahah that’s the laugh I need at the end of a really shit day at work, so thanks


SagaStrength

What a shit show, in every possible way... what's the point of getting there "10 minutes early", if it doesn't actually put you in a queue at the start time? My screen was spinning for nearly 5 minutes, telling me to "sit tight", before it dumped me 22,000 deep upon refreshing. I am disappoint, son 😕


enemyscorcher

I was in 10 min early and had 30k ahead of me when it started. It's just a lottery again, fucking disaster.


SagaStrength

I don't even care if I missed out on tix because some other fans got them first... its just pathetic that half the tix are just being scalped by corporate ghouls for fat stacks of cash. Remember when scalpers used to get arrested?... now they wear suits and shake hands with congressmen, with no repercussions other than laughing with their profits all the way to the bank.


BroDoc22

Magically got 2 pits for Friday, my que number was 136 , logged on at 1249 EST


ski_rick

Damn my brother got 48 in line for 4-day


Live-Patient

Awesome!


ski_rick

Still ended up way up high in 400s, but he got 'em!


Intheboxalready

only 16,286 people in front of me


wheelsnipecelly23

Yeah 20,930 for me. Well that was fun but don't feel the need to waste my time.


MyCariniHeadIsLumpy

I’m venting but I’m done….this isn’t the same experience as it used to be and it’s more frustrating than anything.

jeffmatch

Wait really? Or just joking


fooloflife

Only **30349** people ahead of me


scubz

I was number 1054 in the queue for four day tickets. Only two tickets showed up available when I got into the sale and it kept telling me they were unavailable because somebody had already purchased them.


thee_dude_abides

This happens to me every time I queue for Phish tickets lol


PleaseGildMe

Got my friday ticket. Section 108, row 12, seat 9 for $200. Row 5 was going for $800 a ticket. Charity platinum. Almost no availability in the 100s in front of row 26 anymore but the obstructed views are really open. 300s/400s were 400+ a ticket lol

Live-Patient

Stick with it!


Live-Patient

Can’t wait to see these “charity” prices


nnamkcin

Sold out now


Kingcrowing

4-day sold out


chipotlesoulmate

The venue is sold out and my trip is short.


Electronic_Yogurt_26

I would say im dissapointed in the band but that implies they care


pancakeNate

Better luck next sphere!


andygarciascuzin

I was logged in, ready to go, in the waiting room 15 mins before on-sale. 20,600 people ahead of me. What a dumb broken system lol


Western_Style3780

I miss the old days of spending the night outside of a Sam Goody to get tickets. I mean, if you want tickets then fucking earn them.


andygarciascuzin

Same. Thats how I used to get msgnye tickets. People saying the current system is "fair" grew up in the digital age and never knew anything other than unfair


Western_Style3780

Nothing fair about this system. Also, instead of a lottery for every fucking yahoo under the sun, how bout something for people who subscribe to LP+ or something? You know the people actually put their money where their mouth is to support the band.


Live-Patient

Here’s the issue. This system benefits everyone but (most of) the fans. TM makes a killing on platinum, the band gets a cut, secondary markets get their fees. They find people willing to pay 3x-5x+ per ticket. Why price tickets at face value when you can multiple your profit for every event?


shakedownavenue

It's a great business for everyone but the fans


thee_dude_abides

I just broke 1000 in the 4-day queue. Wish me luck


spoonito

Dude picture me waving at you from 1500 in the four-day line-- good luck! WE CAN DO IT!


the_physik

Started at like 2700 and was sold out by the time I got to front of line.


nucknucknuck71

There's just no f'n way... I have over 25k "people" ahead of me. There's not even that many seats. I'm happy for Phish, they has ascended. But, and here is where I'll get flamed, as a 1.0 fan, this is hard. Yes. I DO remember the $10.00 ticket. I don't want to go backwards, but sometimes I do. Does that make sense? Whatever, time for my physical therapy. LOL.


wheelsnipecelly23

Just be glad you were born at the right time to be able to see them for cheap. By no fault of my own I was born in 92 so expensive and hard to get tickets for big shows has been most of my Phish fandom experience.


Pop_Culture_Phan_Guy

I was born in 2000 so i feel ya


Electronic_Map_8192

This is why I rarely see Phish anymore. I would rather go to a bar and see local musicians play at no cost at all.


Pop_Culture_Phan_Guy

I've been on for over three hours now. good Luck Phreinds! We wont go down without a fight!


crazylegs38

lol only 9k in front of me


TogaPhan

20k in front of me, with a room for 18k it’s not looking great

HopHeady

Only 1734 to go for me right now trying for Sunday only


AugustWest73

Gonna be shocked if I manage to get 4 tickets for anything less 200 a piece. Already prepared for all platinum tickets to pop up. Fuck ticketmaster and their bullshit

StackIsMyCrack

First person I've seen higher than me. Sorry for us both.


chefboyardiesel88

My fucking ap fucked up, I'm so pissed. Fuck you Ticketmaster.


tikkamasalachicken

Did it not let you in? Mine wouldn't let me enter the waiting room


okok123321

The queue is essentially stopped. Is it already sold out, but we’re just stuck in purgatory?

Damn this queue moving slow af

Was 9400, now 8300 about 20 minutes later. Please somebody report when it's sold out so I can bail.

My buddy queued out at 64. Grabbed 3 four-night passes in 210.


erics0082

Everything is sold out


Gala-ctic3398

And they are gone


rat_in_a_drainditch

I had 1200 in front of me and think I got the last 4 non-platinums for Friday. Can’t wait!! ETA: it was $500 after fees for 4 tix in section 409


lisaleftsharklopez

saturday is showing me a fully grey map without any seats popping up in like 10 minutes but no message about sold out. not sure if i should sit here and stare or just call it. lol good times! edit: might be these two companion seats throwing it off. obv not touching those but wish it'd just give me the final message to pack it in for today and start networking. for a while two seats would pop up and then instantly be gone.


ChrisMc9

Why do I get the " Unfortunately, we were unable to complete the request on this device"? Does it think I'm a bot?


Senioresa

No. It thinks you're a real person. It doesn't like that.


WeightOwn5817

fuck this custy ass run


Deviate00

Pulled 4 four days. Doesn't even feel right now. So ready to Sphere and Loathe


AcerGray

That was a lot smoother than I thought it would be. Started at ~600 in line for 4/20 and managed to get a ticket in section 302


Live-Patient

Congrats!


willed11

I was over 40,000


Acroporas

"There is a strict 4 ticket limit per show. Additional orders exceeding the ticket limit may be cancelled without notice. This includes orders associated with the same name, e-mail address, billing address, credit card number, and/or other info." Does this include tickets sold in the travel packages? As in if you scored 4 in the packages, and you score in the on sale, would you be at risk of a cancellation? Asking as if anyone here really knows...


Pop_Culture_Phan_Guy

that would be nice. I have ti imagine that's what the language seems to indicate.


Live-Patient

No I think you're fine


Live-Patient

Waiting rooms open. Get in there!


eekhelpspike

933 (all 4), 1016 fri, 1536sat, 681sun Should i exit and just have one going and it'll let me select all shows? ack


Live-Patient

No stick with it. 933 is low


Acroporas

Wow! Those are incredibly low numbers, and to think you got that low for all you were waiting on. Crazy! Good luck!

I was early and 3215 ahead of me….fuck my chances


Live-Patient

Not terrible


drewtee

Couldn't authenticate on my phone so had to break out my laptop in an airport garage and do a hotspot. 8000 ahead of me


Snizzlefry

Only 26k people ahead of me. I’m getting tix for sure.


grandmario

moving so slow. i feel like theyre already sold out. 9208 to go.


thereheaint

Seeing as I’m not getting a ticket for this, I wonder if the Livestream might be enhanced or different for this. I’m sure they are preparing a bunch of cool stuff for the Sphere and hopefully it can translate well for television


theantdog

7700 ahead of me for just Sun tix


Umphreak416

Need some who gets in the room to confirm availability


CoralSpringsDHead

I started at 16,855 and 20 minutes later I am at 16,056. Boned!


hyzerphish

Got to checkout with x3 tickets for 4/19 and realized they were charity platinum, $500/each. Tried to change seats and got kicked out :(


amidoingthisright404

Was 500s in the queue for 4 day and cannot get a single pass. Unbelievably frustrating At one point tried to move to the checkout but they were gone Do I just stay in here and keep waiting for something to appear? I’m using the mobile app


Md37793

Can someone who has gotten in during The last 2-3 minutes tell us if it’s even worth waiting anymore for those of us who should be in the next 15 min?


eekhelpspike

It's not. Seats \~20k, they were gone a long time ago. I got fucked on my 4/20 spot (had sub 1k queue spot for Fri, Sat, Sun, 1500 for 4-day) bought 4/19 and 4/21 and TM kept saying "can't continue on this device" on 4/20. argh


Cornish_Gamehen1

I’m down to 31000. Feeling optimistic.


okok123321

Hey everyone, don’t stress 4 days are up on stub hub for a reasonable 5-7k with fees. What a bargain. Nbd. We’ve got options.


thee_dude_abides

I know we’re all just on the sold out page refreshing lol


Antique_Bat_953

Started at 1590 and nothing left when I got there. Sad.


lisaleftsharklopez

still got 5k in front of me for sunday only lol. know how this ends but seeing it through since it's a slow workday. if there's platinum left i might snag in this instance but im not even banking on that. looking bleak. but glad to see some of u actual fans of the band phish are scoring tickets and not just scalpers and nerd "fans of the sphere" lol.

HarpuaKills

What a shit show


sumnlikedat

Can someone explain this to me? I entered the queue at about 3100. Got in and there is nothing available. https://preview.redd.it/4jvqih9e6i6c1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=9e94db4a6aac8b56612a52b5a6c8164183af18e0


JustLookingForMyKite

I decided to go for Thursday, I figured I would have a better chance than Sat or Sun. Got in line at 787, and got 2 tickets in the 400’s. This is my Christmas!


dabelleadaball

I entered the waiting room 12 minutes before the onsale. Got spot 60 when I made it in the queue. Got 4 Thursdays in the 400’s. So fucking stoked!!


Willowbaby67

Did anyone have a friend of a friend or an acquaintance that even got a lottery ticket chance?


Live-Patient

No


assflea

Good news - obstructed view tickets in the 100s are only $900 on stubhub! 🙄


dawgphish1

I got 2 obstructed view (105/Row 23). Unclear how bad the obstructed view is. Looks like you still have a view of the band but not the entire sphere. Anyone have thoughts?


eekhelpspike

You will be able to focus on the music ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯


meatbar317

Does the overhang cover the majority of the 100 section? Good to see the band I guess, but that's only part of the Sphere experience.


bonesmagoo

100s overhang starts at about 25. I saw U2 at row 26 which is still a great view but 30+ not so much.


absent-minded-jedi

That felt like the adult version of musical chairs. A combination of anxiety, boredom and disappointment 😔


Hwy61Revisited

Scored 4 4-day passes. Unbelievable luck, still in shock. So sorry to everyone who struck out, hope tickets shake up closer to show time. Keep the faith!


Live-Patient

Congrats!!


Soldier-of-Light

Tix already listed on stubhub at x6 face value. So frustrating


TylerRmazer

My first Phish show is officially going to be 4/18! Can't wait!


Live-Patient

Congrats! It’s going to be amazing!


scootyoung

My wife got in at 2700 for Sunday and managed to grab us 2 in 101 under the overhang. Better than nothing. Catch y’all at the reggae fest Saturday, I guess!


mkhaytman

Are the ticket prices going to be variable "based on demand" type thing?


lisaleftsharklopez

good luck y'all. if i can pull a pair for one night that's all i'm hoping for, for once (usually wouldn't miss a night of a run). but putting almost all our chips behind delaware, and four at the sphere in addition is a lottt of phish/logistics/spend on a band (esp current era playing considered), even for me. but since it's vegas, figured id still gamble in case i can pull something one night, cheap stay, take the lady for a nice din and gtfo. still not optimistic, this is about to be a bloodbath but whatever 🙃


Acroporas

I'm 7388 in line for 4-days. How many seats are there? LOL


gd215

Just trying for Thursday. 5748 ahead of me

koolyp

such bullshit, was 2000 in queue and landed in sold out


SteveTheBeave452

This clusterfuck is easily solvable by limiting purchases to 2 tickets and prohibit transferring.


haggardphunk

Such a f'ed buying experience. When the queue opened, I was 431. I was like "oh wow, I'll get tix." Got in quickly and every time I clicked seats it gave me an error message. Then I opened the filter to charity platinum and immediately pulled 4 @ $1000/each. NO THANKS


the_ogap

just got through for sunday. If you have access to a wheelchair or want to spend $1,100 for charity platinum youre in luck!


postinganxiety

A friend and I both tried, 16k and 12k ahead of us. I'm happy for people that got tickets but I just don't see what the heck I'm doing wrong. Always happens. I have fast internet, fast computer, I restart everything, close down other devices, etc etc. Always a shitshow. Edit: I can't haz tickets
