MB Dates Added Part 2

I was having trouble with the MB Dates Added thread going to the last page so I'm thinking it is at it's limit so starting this new thread.

5/14/13 Updated*

 

You are going to find a number of things on the web and on band member's websites before I announce, or they end up in the Tour section here, or MB's official Facebook and I want to explain why.  Michael's management and tour people start setting things up and working with promoters and venues most times a long time before we hear about them. There are logistics that have to be worked out as well as schedules, deposits, agreements, etc that are all signed and ok'd before Michael's people consider them confirmed.  The band member's may put them on their websites also before we do because they are given the dates while they are being worked on, so they will hold those dates in their busy schedules as well. A lot of the band do other gigs when they aren't with Michael so they are asking them to hold those dates.  Promoters and venues sometimes post before all is confirmed on Michael's end as well because they want to get the word out and tickets sold but sometimes that works against them and most of us have seen that happen when a concert doesn't work out and tickets have to be refunded or taken down with no explanation. Most of the times the ones you find on websites of the venues or band member's sites do work out but because there is the chance they might not until all i's are dotted we don't post on the main page until it is!!

Hey Florin, I'm sorry to hear that, I had forgotten you'd moved to Finland.  I do wish for you that you get a concert your way next year sweetie, take care. Big hugs, sincerely, Sylvie QC Canada :D

Wow, great news for people from Romania. As I could see, the weather in St. Moritz (Switzerland) is sunny and warm today so that I hope Michael will enjoy his stay in Europe.

Happy New Year for you, Gail, too.

Just an FYI, you do need a password, which I had, but all the seats are in the back. I guess I have to scrap this show since I'm on an airplane tomorrow morning.

Sally,

I know, what crappy kind of "Presale" is this? All the seats are in the back? Forget that. Now we have to try to get them tomorrow at 10am again! PIA

I am annoyed at the presale. So, onto tomorrow at 10 and hopes to getting good seats.

Good luck Tiffany. If anyone wants the password it's Escape.

I did the presale last year, but you didn't need a password. I went and hunted down that dang password, which I should have been sent since I get alerts. You could only do the best available options. I'm heading to FL in the morning. I might check and see what my luck will be when I can. I will check in and see how everybody made out.

I remember that last year Sally as I helped my friend get a 2nd row aisle seat and I didn't use a password.  Shame they now want one this time and still offered up crappy seats.. Good luck ladies in the general sale tomorrow. Maybe they will sell the front sections then.

These things are always a crap shoot. Every situation can be so different.

Right you are, Robin. It's definitely up to the venues on how they want to handle ticket sales...each one is different. Even back in the day when we were busy setting up fan club seating, there were venues that made us want to pull our hair out...while others were very easy to work with.

I remember you all doing that back in the day Anna. I can only imagine what you gals went thru getting the fan club seats set up at some of them! Oh man.Yup, it's always different it seems like these days too with each one. LOL

Well, I get off the airplane in Orlando, as soon as it hit 10, I made my family stop so I could go online and order AC tickets. The same stinkin' seats as yesterday. Not riding 3 hours, pay for a room to sit in the back. it looks like their holding half the arena for something. How did everyone make out?
