You in seats 38 and 39 in Red Deer? I got 40 and 41, but those ones kept coming up in future searches. I was tempted, but it wouldn't have been that much of an upgrade.

I got FLR4, row M or something like that. for London What gets me the most is I refreshed and had FLR2 right when the labatt webpage started working, I had all my info stored, and when I hit "submit order" the next page said "ticket system offline, updating system..." Needless to say, I didn't get an order confirmation for those. I am really pissed!

Damn, I wish I found this forum this morning while I was hitting my refrsh button for 1/2 hour! I really wanted good seats. All I could get was FLR-E row 19 seats 1-2 in Barrie. Is that terrible?? I've never been.

I don't want to complain about this presale, since the band is by no means obligated to offer one...but that said, if you're GOING to offer one, shouldn't you make damn sure all systems are go before you launch it? Again, not complaining--but hitting F5 for 15 minutes was pretty disheartening.

Edit: sorry everyone, nothing to see here, all is partially resolved, maneged to get a single in sec 104, and another single for my buddy a few rows behind me in the same section at the JLC.

i got a pair in row 2 for victoria. the sty website does indeed need to be improved as someone else mentioned. it isn't very user friendly. i was just wondering if anyone found it strange that the better tickets didn't seem to come out right away. for the first 5 minutes all i could get was row 19-38 so i kept trying and it came up with row 6, then 4, then 2 so i bought the row 2s. i figured i'd wait until saturday morning if i could only get the high teens or worse.

There were some tense moments this morning, and not a lot of work getting done, but I eventually got tickets to the 3 shows I decided to attend. My priority was Sudbury, and I ended up with a pair at front-row-centre, so I'm very pleased! I also decided to get a ticket each for Barrie and Sault Ste. Marie.
I feel wierd about going alone, but my wife will just be back to work after a year's parental leave, and none of my friends are fanatical enough to travel during the week for a Hip show. I knew that if I passed up on so many Ontario dates I'd regret it when the time comes. Anyway, I'm sure there'll be some Hipbaser's to meet up with!
I really wanted to go for a London-Hamilton-Toronto stretch, but London is on my son's first birthday, and Hamilton/Toronto seemed a little expensive. I also thought about a Peterborough-Oshawa-Ottawa trip after the Sudbury show, but it seemed like a bit of a long solo-trip. Which ever group of shows I choose it would basically mean taking a week off, so travelling to the Sault and then back home to Sudbury, before going down to Barrie and then back for the hometown show seemed like a good way to spend a week in January.
Anyway, before I started this long story, all I wanted to know was if anyone else bought Sault tickets? That was wierd! I called non-stop (no internet pre-sale, yet regular sale will be on the website?) for probably close to an hour. There was absolutely no answer, no message, nothing. Finally a woman answered, took my name, phone number and credit card, but didn't tell me my seat or anything. As far as I could tell, she was writing my information down, and she was going to actually book all of the written orders later. It wasn't even until I'd hung up that I realized I'd spent over $50 but didn't have a clew were my seat was!

I scored 2 in row 13 and 1 in row 7, i'll be doing some networking too
I'll be bunking at the Coliseum Inn as usual, I'll be the guy in the knee length Tragically Hip coat thats belly up to the bar 
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!
