Default Please Help Me :( (concert tickets)

sorry for cross-posting but Im desperate...

Does anyone have any connections in getting concert tickets?? LoL

I really want to see Tori Amos at the beacon theater...for 10/11....I need 4 of them...but if thats impossible at least 2....

Ive looked on ebay and there arent many for that date...and the sold out tickets sites are charging $230+ for each ticket....And I have no problem paying that much LoL (not cause im rich-i wish i was- but cause Im obsessed with Tori)--but none of my friends want to pay that much...

If 10/11 is impossible...I would even go to the show on the 9th or 10th...But I prefer the 11th...

Can anyone help me out??

I'd love u forever! lol

If not, thanks anyway for reading my patheticness lol

Tori ROCKS!! I camped out all night to get tix for a concert in Minneapolis a few years ago. It was worth it! We got front row!

Dani- Try e-bay, that's all the help I can give. Also...go down there the night of the show. I have YET to attend a concert where someone is not selling extra tickets out front just before the show starts!

Yeah, but she'll end up paying like 2 or 3 times what the tickets are actually worth. sad.gif rolleyes.gif

Not if you want for 5 mintues before the show. Then people get desperate. I got into see Bruce Springsteen for 1/4 face value ($10 each) beacause the guy paniced when he heard music start and the crowd go nuts.

It was just the warm up band! *laugh*

Big risk for the quality of the seats that way, though...

She didn't say she wanted quality seats...only tickets. When the show is sold out, you gotta take what you can get! Sure quality seats would be nice, but you don't really expect someone to be selling 4 "spare" front row tickets 5 mintues before the show!

Tori Amos usually plays Halls of less than 10,000 people, so there is usally not a bad seat in a venue that small. Arena or stadium concerts...that's a different story!
