The most recent extension going to December:

Anyone receive a code yet?   I'll cry (not really) if I get standby again.

I’ll join in your tears. I’m fully expecting another stand by but have received nothing yet. Anyone remember when they notified the prior Ticketmaster Verified recipients?

I don't think they distribute the actual codes until the morning of ticket sales (Wednesday). 

They're supposed to send out an email with information today, which hopefully will say if you'll be getting a code. Last time, I got an email saying I was on stand-by at 9:32pm.

I didn't even get an email saying the verified fan was open to enter... I totally missed it this time

It wasn't open to enter. Only fans who previously registered are able to get codes (so if you registered before, you're automatically eligible).

Yes, of course you are right about code vs confirmation about being chosen, and the latter IS what I meant.

 

I think I remember last time, we didn't hear until the evening of the scheduled day.  (Of course, I couldn't remember that this morning!)

 

And yes, again, to the info of no new registrants.  ONLY open to us losers that have been unsuccessful scoring ticket.

I just got my email (I have a 12:30pm slot, which does not seem promising).

I'm in the 11am slot, which the email says is the first group.

1 pm here, which I guess is better than standby! We’ll see what happens.

Crap, f'ing waitlist, AGAIN. Oh, well.   

[smidge]

Posted: 3/26/18 at 8:49pm

Yup, also on the wait list. Why doesn't Bruce like me?!

Just got a code. Surprised that they remembered me, but good news.

Ill be looking for a specific date --- the only time I know I'll be in NY over the rest of this year- any hints about how to get the best results?

And any way to know in advance what the prices are for each area of the theatre?

THANKS

I'm in the second slot - 11:30...(-:

I guess I better look through the older threads to know what to expect.  I really don't want to go for the high priced seats.  But I'd be all over the cheap seats, especially if I can line it up with an upcoming trip.

Is there anyway to know in advance where the seats are for each price range?

I'm looking for front mezzanine, and it would be helpful to know more about the prices so I don't have to waste time getting oriented.

THANKS

Here's a helpful seating chart with price info.  I sat in the mezzanine in a $400 seat, and it was perfect.  Really, not a bad seat in the house.  https://twitter.com/backstreetsmag/status/905509567035043840

Ah I did just get an email. 3rd group at noon.

My code will be for 12:30, but I wasn’t planning on getting a ticket, just was carried over from the last one. First to pm me gets the code if anyone wants it.

I got the11AM time slot, but still have yet to receive a text with my code. Anyone else having the same issue?

The text won't come until tomorrow morning.

Thanks for your reply CT2NYC. I incorrectly thought they were going on sale today- need to read more closely next time. Thanks again :)

I'm reading on ticketmaster that recommend using a desktop computer for booking.  Their site is blocked at my workplace.  Has anyone tried to book any of these verified fan events from a phone?  Trying to figure out if I need to go find a computer outside work for my time slot.

Even if you get a code there's no guarantee of being able to get tickets. I got a code last time (very late) and by the time I got on there were virtually no tickets left, and none for under $500

They recommend using a computer mainly because it's easier to cycle through the calendar. If you need to use your phone, it will work just fine.

I was successful last time in the second group. (I forget if it was 12 or 12:30.) I was able to get balcony seats for $75 each for a Thursday night. For people in the second or later groups, I would suggest aiming for a weekday in the later part of the run. Good luck!

My group starts at 1PM- I am in the fifth group- do you think I have a chance to get decent 500 dollar seats?
