They both seem to like playing with me and I like playing with them so we will try to work their issues out. Since we are doing covers, dance stuff for mostly private functions and not jam band stuff I am not sure how the Phish method would really help. We have no problem grooving and jamming when we are cutting loose. I think it's mainly that the bassist wants to get the parts exactly right and the drummer and I are content so long as it sounds good and captures the feel of the song. What would playing in bands be without a little band drama. lol

It helps you listen as a band..
And improve...

It's not about being in a jam band.. It's about listening as a band..
for nuances.. and changes... all that stuff..

Congrats. I got skunked. Couldn't even pull a single any night

Funky_Catskills · Feb 28, 2015

bummer... there will be a ton of tickets around..
So many people I know pulled tickets - way more than say PHish NYE or Halloween which tend to be tough tickets..
Once the dust settles.. Thre will be seats around..

deadheadskier · Feb 28, 2015

Hope so. Stubhub prices suggest a HUGE demand.

Funky_Catskills · Feb 28, 2015

thats early stuff.. totally off base.. prices will come down once people realize the demand isn't as big as originally anticipated...

deadheadskier · Feb 28, 2015

I just philosophically am so against scalping. Never have paid above face. Hopefully a friend ends up with an extra.

Put my hotel reservation up for trade. Hopefully it works out.

I've got a 4 night reservation 3 miles from the venue at the Marriott Medical District hotel for $650 total for the 4 nights. I can shorten it to 3 nights for $500. Hotel is right next to public trans.

All I'm looking for trade is 2 tickets for one night at face value. I'll buy one nights tickets at face value, the buyer probably saves $3-400 in hotel rooms costs. I'd obviously love to go all 3. But, me and a friend just want to have one last night to hear the boys and say goodbye.

Most in demand concert tickets in history for Ticketmaster. Over half a million "people" attempted to get tickets. Who knows if that's significantly less people using multiple devices trying to get in. I know I had two going and my friend who I want to go with had four.

...also highest priced concert tickets ever on Stubhub.

I hope I get lucky on Cash or Trade with my hotel room offering. I'm certainly not dropping the stubhub prices to get in the door. That kind of cash could pay for a flight to San Fran where I could just catch Phil at Terrapin Crossroads.

DHS, good luck. Keep networking. Any info on Beano?

BeanoNYC · Mar 2, 2015

Totally skunked from both GTDS, CID and Ticketmaster. Pretty bummed. Still sniffing around for extras but will focus on the Phish tour if not.
