Screw This... I'm Trying For Hannah Montana Tickets

[mhafinancial]

And if I get them someone spoiled brat in the midwest somewhere will be getting a heckuva present from her over-indulgent parents and a hyper-inflated cost.

TM for Giants Stadium was a joke. Got right in. Wait time less than 1 minute. Then got a BS "javascript" error, kicked out to the back of the queue.

So Hannah, here I come (not that it'll be any easier). :biggrin:

[l.i. bruce fan]

I know, same here!

And worse still: Press 1 for Hannah Montana, Press 2 for Bruce Springsteen.

Got through 30 seconds after tix went on sale. Pulled up Section 7 row 9. I was logged into my MyTicketmaster account so I wouldn't have to worry about credit card issues. I hit continue and got the message.."Error in Processing your request. Check your accont history or call Ticketmaster." Needless to say that order never made it to my account.

Got thru for Section 303 for HM in St. Louis and tossed them back.

I DO have standards, y'know.....

:roll:

Patience pays for Hannah Montana faithful
Tickets to see Disney megastar Hannah Montana sold out in minutes this morning, but surprisingly most of people who lined up at the Bradley Center walked away with tickets.

In contrast to other venues where a small number of people in line got tickets, more than 300 people here walked away with tickets to see the hottest concert tour, "Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds" on Jan. 13.

That's because the tour and the Bradley Center agreed to set aside a block of tickets, somewhere under 1,000, to be sold from the center's box office, Bradley Center president and CEO Stephen Costello said.

Half of the 15,000 tickets were sold on Friday through the Hannah Montana fan club. Tickets on-line and over the phone sold out in about 10 minutes, but the last tickets weren't sold out at the center until about 12:35 p.m. About 30 people were turned away.

The line started forming across the street from the Bradley Center before 7 a.m. Wristbands were handed out and 12-year-old Emily Cain picked the band that would be first in line.

With a number putting them more than 200 back in line, Cain's father, Mike Blaeser, figured it wasn't worth waiting around. But they were told they still had a shot.

At about 12:30 p.m. Blaeser and his 12-year-old stepped up and bought four tickets just off the floor.

The tickets have been scalped for thousands of dollars elsewhere. One broker is already selling tickets today, one pair in the front section for $6,000.

Blaeser joked he was going to resell the four he just bought, drawing a most sour look from his daughter.

"If I did that, I might as well leave town because she'll learn how to use a shotgun," he said.

The second person in line turned out to be a scalper known to center workers and was kicked out, Costello said. He said it was important to save the tickets as much as possible for the fans.

Costello, who has worked at the center for 20 years, said he can't remember more buzz around a show.

"Nothing compares to this," he said. "This is a phenomenon."

Yes, it's been consistently documented how Hannah is the hardest ticket in the last 25 years. I couldn't get 'em for my daughter in Hartford or MA/RI.

And the Jonas Brothers are hot too.

[myhometown]

Last night in Philly, I got section 3 row 19 at the box office 20 minutes before the show. Drops are happening, these folks don't know how to work the system. Dumped my nosebleeds outside for face, and settled in to great seats.

So who'd you like better? Hannah or Miley?

Well, duh, Miley of course!!

Especially the encore of "Jungleland" into "Best of Both Worlds"

I think the Jonas Brothers are actually hotter in the thin slice of female fans aged 13 to 15. They are playing a show this Saturday after the Hannah show in Worcester at the Somerville Theater. Those tickets are being sold for $500 each versus a $27 face value. It's a 300 seat theater too, so a very intimate show. When the show went on sale last month, it said "sold out" from the first minute. I told my daughter to keep trying and she got seats about 20 minutes later and more sporadically after that. All in all, her and her friends got 7 seats (all we could fit in the minivan).

Hannah tickets for Hartford, Providence, and Worcester have been dropping sporadically all day today. Put in 2 seats and best available and be persistent and you'll get some. Not the greatest locations though - best I saw was section 124 for Hartford.

People used to say the same thing about an underaged Britney Spears. Haven't heard much about her lately... ;)

Our Daughter and her friends are into the Jonas Brothers and all they want for Christmas is Jonas stuff. They are definitely on the rise.

And kudos to the Bradley Center. They brought donuts for the people in line and were very informative to the people who got bad lottery numbers in telling them not to leave and that they had quite few tickets.

It was very old school in a way...for the best seats (many got prime floors and sides) to come from the box office at the venue itself.

hannah was in houston last month and tickets as usual were impossible, but she is coming back in march for the rodeo. i was able to get a mini-package for the rodeo that included hannah montana for a co-worker. she is giving them to her daughter - 8 years old - on christmas. i told her i wanted her to call me so i could hear how excited she gets on christmas morning.

she paid a lot for the package and hopes to sell the tickets to the other shows. so far, the only known performer in the package is faith hill. and this package doesn't include the rock and roll act whoever that is next year. i hope she recoups some of the money she forked over, but i know she will have one extremely happy and surprised daughter christmas morning.

And now Britney's underage little sister, all of 16, is pregnant.

I'm sure she will get some great advice on child rearing from big sis. :rolleye2:

Now that Bruce isn't doing the Super Bowl, maybe he'll be the rock act at the ro-day-o. :D

[texasbossfan]

believe it or not bob dylan has played the houston rodeo. and john fogerty was great last year.

but i do hope i never see bruce at the rodeo, it just doesn't seem right.

you can see all the artists who have "performed" at the houston livestock and rodeo over the years.
