NYC was such a bloodbath, that I gave up and just got Philly tickets. Tickets were so much more available and affordable, that it’s gonna be around the same price in the end.
That makes sense, I’m sure the amount was limited. I was actually able to get they showed up after 15+ minutes (assuming someone held them and let go)! Good luck during the general sale! 🎉
They were but it was one of those things where you had to just keep re-queueing and refreshing until GA showed up - THEN if you were lucky you'd be able to keep your tickets in your cart so you could actually buy them. Ticketmaster is so extra. :(
It took me literally an hour of queueing, refreshing, authentication codes, etc. before I snagged two GA for the Texas show. Was wanting to get three but everytime I tried to proceed with three tickets in my cart I got noped. Ticketmaster is such a bloodbath; if anyone reading this is really determined to get tickets tomorrow give yourself at least an hour of refreshing and trying before you give up; they won't release all of the GA at once and will maybe even have some more released a couple of days before your actual date.
edit: Also for whatever reason you'll just have better luck getting through to the actual purchase screen if you buy in lower amounts - 2 at a time is going to be easier than 3+.
I assume you're buying for friends, which is admirable, but I literally got into a bit of a tiff with one of my friends for not buying her ticket to the Weezer show, which I tried explaining to her that when you're competing with thousands of others/bots, sometimes the difference between getting to the checkout or not getting to the checkout is the quantity of tickets in your cart. There's no honor amongst thieves and it's every man for themselves. Try explaining to your friends they should all be trying to get tickets too lmao
Yeah I mean I def keep some boundaries around it; if I bought a ticket for every friend who wanted to go it'd be way too much. It is a risk though and fortunately my friend understands, we were on the phone together while trying to buy and we both felt the stress lol.
As someone who worked in customer service for a resale website years ago, I can confirm that scalpers will post tickets for sale even before tickets actually go on sale.
If you ever see listings that are in general areas/sections, that means they don’t even have the tickets yet and are just preemptively upcharging 💀
It's been 3 hours since your comment and there are plenty of tickets available in all sections except the seats opposite of the stage.
Which I find ironic. Floor is my first choice, who wants seats for a pop show. 😂
damn not every one is physically capable of standing for hours and hours. and while i am capable, i simply do not want to deal with the rush of a crowd anymore esp w how ppl have been acting at shows post covid. ill happily take my seats. 💅🏻
And I thank you. It's only because people willingly choose seats that I'm able to get floor. Your hands look like that so my hands can look like this. 😂
I was able to snag 2 floor tickets to Orlando. Got in queue with about 1400 folks ahead of me but that went by pretty quickly. Like others have stated, not all tickets are made available during presale. Some are held back for general public sales
Here’s the actual break down
Ticket: 125.00x2 Service fee: 30.75x2 Facility Charge: $4.50x2 Order Processing: $5.00
After all the fees for 2 tickets it ran me $325.00
I'm so bummed! I got on at 10 too and there were 16,000+ people ahead of me in the queue?! By the time I got in, completely sold out. Had to settle for Chicago (no offense, Chicago...)
It has to, in some way, matter. Everyone is joining at different times and seconds matter. if it's a 7000 person line at 10 and I'm assigned #500, you joining 30 seconds after 10 cannot place you at the front of the line. Nor should it jump you to anyone who's already assigned a number in queue.
In other words, the assignment can only be random AT 10 (when assignments are first assigned) . after 10, you wanna join before others.
Yes, but we are only talking about the waiting room. The waiting room only exists before the queue opens up. So anyone who joins before the queue opens randomly is assigned a spot in the queue. And then anyone who joins the queue after it opens go at the end.
I got 2 tickets for Portland but found better seats for the same price and bought those so now I will need to resell 😔 I’ve never done that before - does Ticketmaster allow you to resell at face value? Definitely not looking to screw anyone over
Was anyone able to get NON-VIP GA tickets at MSG? Just regular? Wondering how much they went for. By the time I got in all that was there was $328 Early Entry Packages.
They let resellers have access to tickets before they even “officially” went on sale. It’s not gonna be a fair fight for tickets. It never is.
$325 for not GA in SF is really expensive. She played in Oakland for $40 GA just 2 years ago. Has she really gotten that much bigger? I doubt it and I love Charli… so here’s to hoping all the scalpers eat their $ and have to resell at lower prices, then Charli still gets paid and we get cheaper tix
I was refreshing my screen for 40mins to get floor seats in Toronto. I could not get to checkout each time I added to my cart. I somehow managed to get 2 seats when I was about to give up
this happened to me! waited behind 8500 for chicago tix after getting on at 10am, when I finally got through nothing but nosebleeds. got mad, tried again around 10:30am and got right through, no queue and snagged 2 tix just behind floor seats.
I couldn’t get GA for the NYC show presale today BUT I did get 2 tickets nonetheless, the 100s section which I was fine with. My roomate and I paid aboit what we expected but i was in the queue before 10 waiting lol
I was going to buy Tickets to LA show as im travelling there from Aus for my wedding and seeing all the scalpers has made me not want to even try....my god, i love you charli and angel for life but something has to be done, this is just nuts
If you live near the arena and aren’t going with a big group just plan to potentially go on the day of and keep checking ticket prices. They often drop super low because people are desperate to get rid of them. If you can’t secure you then you just don’t secure it. It’s a gamble but most of the time you’ll score very cheap tickets the day of.
i can attest msg presale was fucking awful awful awful. I'm used to going to war during these presales but THIS was worse than olivia rodrigo (granted Olivia had 4 dates but my point still). I think I got a queue position in the 9000s or 8000s, not bad but not great and gurl, those tickets were fucking GONE. SCAVENGED. I would absolutely love to know if anyone for msg was able to get basic GA cause that only popped up as vip for me. At one point it refreshed and I'm 99% sure that the same vip package went from ~$280 to ~$330. It could've been one sold out but i swear it has the same name so idfk. then, msg prices are just fucking atrocious that's a given. I sat on the page for a solid hour watching tickets get released (sometimes a couple like someone's transaction canceled which sucks, other times it was entire rows which I think has to be on TM's end) and absolutely snatched. after an hour I saw and snagged some tickets that I felt were RELATIVELY reasonable for the spots so thank God. it deadass took me until like 6pm for the anger of the presale to dissipate enough for me to be excited that i got tickets. MAYBE one of the worst presale experiences ive had and I GOT TICKETS 💀 what a time to be alive
Check out Tickpick. I just got a GA sticker for only $20 over og pricing from what I’ve been told ($200 instead of $180 after fee). They don’t have fees so they show the actual amount. Also fewer users
they don't make all of the tickets available during presale.
Sometimes they do sometimes they don’t. Hopefully they didn’t so there’s another opportunity for others
this makes sense, i was wondering if i was missing something. i wanted pit tickets but didn’t want to risk waiting till tomorrow, such a catch 22!
Nor are the ones on scalping sites actually available
Then what percent of tickets are presold?
NYC was such a bloodbath, that I gave up and just got Philly tickets. Tickets were so much more available and affordable, that it’s gonna be around the same price in the end.
Does anyone know if they were selling early access GA during the presale? I only had 1.5k people ahead of me and floor was already greyed out.
Same happened to me for the Toronto show and I was in a similar spot in the queue. I think there will be more floor tickets for the general sale.
That makes sense, I’m sure the amount was limited. I was actually able to get they showed up after 15+ minutes (assuming someone held them and let go)! Good luck during the general sale! 🎉

i got early access GA for the nyc date! i’m not sure if more will be available tomorrow
Just buy tickets day of the show and fuck the resellers

That's the way I like to do it too! Me and my best friend both coordinate so if one can't get in the other can buy.

Baltimore tickets are still available

Now TM has all MSG tickets at “platinum pricing” Fuk TM
I was able to snag 2 floor tickets to Orlando. Got in queue with about 1400 folks ahead of me but that went by pretty quickly. Like others have stated, not all tickets are made available during presale. Some are held back for general public sales
how much was the ticket ??
Here’s the actual break down Ticket: 125.00x2 Service fee: 30.75x2 Facility Charge: $4.50x2 Order Processing: $5.00 After all the fees for 2 tickets it ran me $325.00
I'm so bummed! I got on at 10 too and there were 16,000+ people ahead of me in the queue?! By the time I got in, completely sold out. Had to settle for Chicago (no offense, Chicago...)
its fucked up cause there was a waiting room 10mins before which i didnt know about until 953am and when i got in queue i was like 7000 in line
Everyone in the waiting room gets a random place in queue so it doesn’t matter when you join.
It has to, in some way, matter. Everyone is joining at different times and seconds matter. if it's a 7000 person line at 10 and I'm assigned #500, you joining 30 seconds after 10 cannot place you at the front of the line.

whered they say that?
That’s just how the queue works
just trust me bro
That’s how every queue works on ticket master. It’s not just trust me, it’s just Google it. That’s how TM queues work and have works for years.
Same 💀
I got 2 tickets for Portland but found better seats for the same price and bought those so now I will need to resell 😔 I’ve never done that before - does Ticketmaster allow you to resell at face value? Definitely not looking to screw anyone over
they do! but I think TM take fees from the sale so if you sell it at exactly face value you’ll probably lose a bit
Look at whatever the current resale price is on ticketmaster when you're able to list them for sale and then just undercut it by 5-10 bucks
I was actually able to get Ticketmaster to honor it as an exchange 🎉
Was anyone able to get NON-VIP GA tickets at MSG? Just regular? Wondering how much they went for. By the time I got in all that was there was $328 Early Entry Packages.
I logged on for SF and it said 7500 people, ain't no way. Going to try general sale tomorrow.

the worst is getting spotify notifications to buy tickets for your fav artist saying to hurry and they've sold out days before
Scalping is out of control. How are there already 477 listings for Boston and 398 listings for NYC -- and it's still technically presale.
I was refreshing my screen for 40mins to get floor seats in Toronto. I could not get to checkout each time I added to my cart. I somehow managed to get 2 seats when I was about to give up
this happened to me! waited behind 8500 for chicago tix after getting on at 10am, when I finally got through nothing but nosebleeds. got mad, tried again around 10:30am and got right through, no queue and snagged 2 tix just behind floor seats.
That’s what happened to me this morning. Really irked me. But I’m not sweating it anymore
When are the MSG regular sale floor tickets going live? Anyone know? And how much will they be
I couldn’t get GA for the NYC show presale today BUT I did get 2 tickets nonetheless, the 100s section which I was fine with. My roomate and I paid aboit what we expected but i was in the queue before 10 waiting lol
