2019 Summer Ticketing/Request/Confirmations Thread

If you are declined in the pit lottery you are automatically put in the reserved lottery. There is no way to opt out of this.

So if you request pit, as others mention above, be prepared to get uppers.

I wonder how it works for Gorge. There are 2 tiers for reserved but since both are priced the same is the first tier still treated like all other venues $115 level? Where you will be considered for that first before getting bumped to the uppers tier lottery or are both tiers grouped into one lottery? I assume since there are 2 options to select they are separate.

My crew doesn't really have a preference between Pit or seats either, was just thinkin the amount of people requesting Seats in the first tier may be less than those putting in for Pit.

Yeah, i think the two same-priced tiers is to allow the Warehouse to "Randomly" put new members in the front tier, and senior members "Randomly" in the back tier...not all of them, but a disproportionate amount

I am tired of getting crappy seats from The Warehouse. I’m trying to figure out plan B for Camden but it is not listed on the Citi presale site. Is it typical that Citi does not include all venues?

Just requested 3 for Nashville opting out of 49.50 range. Reserved floor would be awesome. If I get pit I'll be trading for floor if anyone is interested.

I've been wondering the same thing about Alpine and Tinley. Not sure I want to leave this WH Tinley request in if there is a Citi Presale.

I apologize in advance for the stupidity in this post.

But this is the first time I’m requesting tickets through warehouse. The show I requested tix for is in series 3. How do I know when confirmations will be posted? I can’t find anything on warehouse unless I’m really blind and missed it. Sorry if I’m an idiot.

[dmbolp]

They didn't post a confirmation date this year, which is odd, but should be shortly before the 2/19 CITI pre-sale; I'm guessing SUN 2/17

I asked The Warehouse about this because I thought it was stupid and this was their response:

The difference between the two $115 Reserved Seating sections is one is Lower Pavilion and one is Upper Pavilion. We wish you the best of luck in the WArehouse presale!

I get what they are trying to convey, but I don't think many Gorge goers think of the 100 and 200 levels as upper and lower.

Requested 2 $115 GA for Nashville
1 Lawn for alpha
2 $115 pits for spac1 (opted out of Lawn )
2 $115 pits for spac2 (opted out of Lawn)

So will see. Hope to finally make it to spac for the first time! Dmb bucket list

It's just GA not pit I thought?

It's the front 1/3 of the floor; call it GA, call it PIT

So I requested pit for both spac shows just to hve a better "chance" at lowers. Are u saying I should just request lowers?

You're gonna get Uppers, if anything, regardless of where you start

Nah. Requesting pit has no effect on your chances of getting confirmed for lowers, should you be put in that lottery.

I'm just pointing out that uppers are a (strong strong) possibility that comes with a pit request (regardless of what your initial request is, as Peter points out); so if you're pit or bust, keep that in mind. The good thing Spac has over just about every other venue though, is that you can recoup all your money for uppers you don't want.

I also opted out of the Lawn. To far to go for that. Why are you so certain because of the demand? This will be my first time going to Saratoga (can't freaking wait to find out what the hype is all about) gonna try my luck with PIT for n1 just bc its my 60th show. I guess I'll be happy with seats both nights anywhere under the shed honestly. What are the balconys considered?

Ah I got you. Na I'm not. I have no interest on the rail and usually when I get pit I stay towards the back for some breathing room. Truthfully I just want seats both nights

[ExistenceNow]

Because Warehouse.

[ExistenceNow]

I don't think I realized you were talking about Spac in my initial response. Declines are your more likely outcome.

Well damn. I guess I'll hope for the best which is any seats and if not try my luck on TM

You'll be okay. If you don't get both nights between WH and TM, just live on the boards for a while. Stuff pops up.

Thanks Matt you are always giving good advice. Where you going this summer?

[ExistenceNow]

Just sticking to the Lone Star State this year.

[dmbolp]

Yeah, we're talking SPAC, probably the venue where demand exceeds supply by the largest percentage (like a factor of 10:1), and put on top of that, probably the smallest Pit. I think we usually get 1, maybe 2 posts here a year of getting SPAC Pit thru a Regular WH request; and maybe 2-3 with Premium WH request

[the_zuul]

I am sure this has been discussed but my wife would like to have a Warehouse membership (I have one as of last summer) to give us a better chance at getting tickets at shows like SPAC and Bethel.

If we have the same last name, shipping, billing addresses, does that matter?

It would be different email and credit card.

Thanks in advance!

The rules state one membership per household; I think the posted rule is only a few years old, maybe 5. But we have at least 2 posted cases where one of the person's requests were all cancelled. And we have more than 2 cases of it never being caught.

My guess, they'll take anybody's money now and not check, but who knows
