Ticketmaster loves pissing people off, so what they they do is say the entire floor is GA, and then after you paid for the tix they decide to let you know that the Floor will be split in half

The Front half being VIP GA, and the back half just GA.

If your tix just say GA then your in the back

Are you freakin serious?? I didn't even see any VIP or front floor listed and had I known this to be the case I would have gotten actual seats.? This sucks.

Edit: I just sent a very nasty note to TM about this! rant

So, I am curious since I have been back and forth with TM customer service via email all day.  They keep telling me that GA means GA but I went on Ebay myself and found someone selling these VIP tickets.  The section on theirs says VI which I am assuming means VIP and mine say BA which I am assuming means BACK. 

I wasn't given any option for any VIP section when I bought my tickets, they gave me the best available just labeled as GA and when they came in the mail they had the BA printed on them.  I bought them at 10:01 am during the presale.

I guess my question is if they changed this after the fact?  I am really PO'ed over this simply because it wasn't stated clearly during the sale.

Any clues about where the pre-show is? From what I understand, it's a huge parking lot!  hihi


Who's getting there "early" and at what time would that mean?

Well, due to the Giants game @1pm the parking lot doesn't open until 5:30 at least that is the information I received from the Meadowlands a few days ago-

Here is a PDF map of the parking area surrounding the venue and yes it is a huge complex-

http://www.meadowlands.com/sharedimages/premiumparkingcaa.pdf

We need to get something coordinated here-


EDIT:

After arguing with TM on the phone for an hour they told me that the promoter changed this event to split GA after the fact, meaning after the day of the presale.  So check your tickets, if they say GA BACK you are on the back of the floor.

I had GA BACK tickets for this and the TM guy left me on hold so many times I scouted Ebay and someone was selling VIP front tickets for face value anyway so I bought them while he had me on hold.  So, in the end I lost just an hour of my life convincing TM to give me a refund which they finally did.

I never noticed that about the VIP on the tickect to now. I just lloked at my tickect and it has VI under section/aisle GA.

Did anyone get that reserved parking? Do you have to get to the show sooner if you get the reserved parking?  Undecided

Okay Bandita, you just about made me have a heart attack! ?I never noticed what it said on my tickets so I ran to the kitchen where I have my tickets safely stashed away...thankfully, they say V.I.P. on them. ?Phew! ?I ordered the tickets from Ticketmaster at the pre-sale like you, so you had me worried! ?I'm glad you'll be a V.I.P. in Jersey, you deserve it! ? beer

5:30 is a late start though, can we get in any earlier??? ?If not, is there another plan for meeting up with fellow fans, and "the" V.I.P. himself, Jarmo? ?I'm really looking forward to this! ? Cool ?Ifinglovevr's car-full of beer sounds tempting as well. ? yes

PS  Mr. Brownstone, I too got the reserved parking.  Unfortunately we can't tail-gate in those reserved decks.  As for the time, I don't know either.  Hopefully, someone here familiar with shows at the Meadowlands (especially Sundays during football games) can tell us what our best bets are.  Thanks!   peace

I never even would have looked at my tickets that closely but then someone posted about it here in the thread and I looked. ?I can't even understand how this happened because I bought them the minute the pre-sale started. ?But at least I got it resolved now and have the front GA tickets I wanted, no thanks to ticketmaster. ?Now all I have to remember is to NOT bring my cancelled tix to the show!

As far as the e-mail I got from the Meadowlands, if you have reserved parking you can show up any time before the start of the show. ?I didn't buy it simply because they don't allow partying on the reserved deck and I plan on showing up early enough not to wind up in the overflow lot anyway. ?

I think I posted this some page back but here is the email again for those who missed it:

Meadowlands All Access [meadowlands@meadowlands.com]

Did they let us know that policy at the time of the pre-sale?  I was freaking out making sure my info. was good in that little 2 minute window they give you for securing your tickets.  Now, I feel stuck in reserved.  There's got to be a way I can get out of the expensive parking and mingle with all you common-folk!   hihi

Well you can try screaming at ticketmaster like I did for a straight hour before.  My argument was that when I purchased the tickets online they made no mention of having a back GA section and I wasn't made aware of this until they arrived. Frankly I think the guy just got sick of listening to me so he finally offered me a refund, haha.  Possibly you want to get a woman to make the call for you, haha!

I think we may want to have some kind of Plan B for pre-partying though.  I know the area fairly well and have been scouting around for places in the general vicinity online but there really is nowhere great.  You can never tell what the weather is gonna be like, especially in November.

oh hell I didn't know they were gonna do this when I bought the tickets! Shocked They were listed as GA on the TM site and still are listed that way...if the promoter changed the GA to split section GA's then they should have told people about this and made the proper adustments!

I'm calling TM tomorrow to complain...if they don't give a refund I'll just get my lady friend to call them up.... Grin I don't want these tickets anyway since we decided to hit the MA show instead but I still feel cheated based on the way this whole thing was handled by TM and the promoter! no

My tix say GA7 on them...whatever that means Huh Roll Eyes Undecided

edit:

FYI: GA is now sold out for NJ! ok Only lower and upper level seats are available.

so if you need ga's pm me...unless TM gives me a refund I have two available at FACE! Cool

Do they say GA BACK or GA VIP?

That was my whole issue, my order history says nothing about split GA it was changed after the tickets had already gone on sale.  And yes, the GA is entirely sold out for the show which is why they gave me a refund instead of switching the tickets.

On another note, I am scouting bars in the area of the arena just in case there is really bad weather or the parking lot doesn't open until later because of the Giants game.

I came up with this one so far-my friends band played here some time ago-

www.parkcitybar.com

It is right near the arena.  I emailed them and asked for their Sunday hours and am waiting for a response-

Bandita, holy smokes, I can see why you went off on them!  That would have pissed me off severely! 

Also, may I ask what the 5x on that ticket means next to "event code?"  Mine say 1x and I have no clue what that means.   Huh

Thanks for the work on setting up plans b and c, etc.   peace

I have no idea what that means, I had enough issue trying to explain to the TM guy that this was a split GA event.  My new tix are on their way today! Grin
