1. WH Request.
2. Citi Presale
3. Ticketmaster public sale.
4. Warehouse ticket exchange, cashortrade.org, ant's ticket exchange, and DMB ticket facebook groups.
5. Always check ticketmaster when you have some extra time. Sometimes you can catch a ticket drop.
6. Beg in this thread.
7. Be on alert for the warehouse instant ticket email.
8. If you still don't have tickets the day or two before the shows, stalk ticketmaster because there will be ticket drops.

It's like a 12 step program. You have to admit you have a problem first.
Bottom line folks- SPAC seats has consistently been the most difficult ticket on the tour since DMB started playing here regularly in 1997.
If you get tickets both nights in the first few steps you're a unicorn . If you get pits, you're a unicorn.
You need to be patient because trading season is fucking absurd. As time gets closer, people will sell when trades fall through or just are not attainable.
Honestly, your best chance at tickets is the warehouse, but denial rate is high as fuck.
Citi bank presale- joke, they might have 50 seats each night, if you're lucky. 10,000 people trying for them
General onsale- biggest joke of all. Most tickets are not released. 5 rows from the back of balcony being platinum tickets, the waiting room, the "SORRY another fan beat you to those tickets" and other bullshit dooms you
ticket exchange, etc. - Trades, lots of them, posted for months... "Never for sale" ISO threads, clogging up Warehouse boards , being bumped by Brad, hourly.
Facebook groups- you need to act fast, but the trading shit starts there and is even more absurd.
Drops- this is where a being in a facebook group helps, especially a few smaller groups. Somebody will post a drop, tickets are snapped up quickly, by bots too.
begging in the thread-
useless unless you're a participant, random begging gets you nowhere.
instants- again, act fast. Notable uptick in trade posts from fuckers getting instants and with no intention of going.
So- you still wanna go to SPAC?
message Chrushlive- he's always got great tickets
