Shut out of the show you just have to see? This is the place to see if anyone's got extras.
Help on the way? ~~~~> looking for 2 all nights
Hey all!
Looking for a couple for all three days.
We are both sincere fans and will use the tickets we buy ourselves. Back in '95, I saw Three Rivers and the first night of Deer Creek and had tickets to the 2nd night but that show was canceled. It was a bit ugly. Decided not go on to Chicago and I missed that Shakedown and Unbroken Chain that last night... ever ... which I have regretted for many years.
I am happy for you if you got your tickets! If you happen to have a couple of extras I would love to have them. I NEED A MIRACLE! Redemption... I'll get a new start, live the life I should. I'll get up and fly away!
Not sure the best way to safely pay you but we can work it out. Willing to pay a bit over face for your time and effort but not looking to put money in a scalper's pocket.
Thanks!

@ neilatthewheel - I don't have the extras you are looking for, but in addition to this site, you should sign up for cashortade.org
It is a fantastic site where fans buy/sell/trade tickets for face value.

I will take two for any night if you can spare them - I just got my pinky yesterday.
please email at david.elwood at usask.ca
I am desperate - I saw them back in the 90's but was just a kid and planning to run away with the circus when...well we know what happened. I feel like I am walking around selling peanut butter with a cardboard sign around my neck - just need some tix...and another show to make it to.
Peace
EDIT: One thing I forgot to add - despite getting my pinky and the horror and sadness that came with relying on the heartless beast known as TM tomorrow; I think we owe Elvis and the people at GDTS a HUGE thanks for all the work they did. That must have been a horrible task deciding who gets tix and (mostly) who doesn't.
1 ticket, any or all nights
Sure hoping tomorrow is a better day! No luck like many with mail order and this morning with CID ticket packages -- sure hope to get lucky with TM tomorrow. Hope some kind soul will end up with a spare ticket... Thanks! (Needless to say any extras I end up with if I get lucky tomorrow will be made available here at cost.)
Peace and happiness to all,
Sam
Housing accommodations with transportation!
Greetings all:
After 5 weeks of intense anticipation I was unfortunate to have received the dreaded pinky. However, I do live in the Chicago area and I am next to public transportation to and from the city. I am offering any family oriented person/group housing accommodations in exchange for a single golden ticket. I can accommodate up to 4. This offer includes pick up and drop off at airport as well. Imagine not having to deal with making transportation or housing plans after this long wait. Your chariot awaits.
Please consider this invitation when making your plans to visit our great city. Please PM me
Need 2 three days
Tried for VIP tickets this AM, gone in very short time, like 15 minutes. First time was at Woodstock and about 400 shows afterwards. Almost thought of putting in dying of something I am so desperate. But even I have limits. I already have my flight and hotel. OK I am begging. My daughters are to old to be offered up. Ok I don't have limits. BEGGING.
Argh this is so sad
Ok just got shut out of TM - literally sold out inside of 5 seconds...this is sad. I am now at the mercy of sellers. Please I hope someone on this site has a heart and can share just one last time. Stubhub (that evil seller) has floor tix for $1200 up to $2500 - so mail order people cashing in. The worst seats in the house are going for $600...please anyone...
I guess nothin left to do but smile, smile, smile...I will say thank you to the boys for putting it on and I hope it is everything I remember it to be (and I saw them on their rockiest tour - 95). All of you with tix, enjoy. I will be there in spirit.
2 or 3 day passes for Fare Thee Well
Hello! Just looking for a pair of 2 or 3-day passes for the anniversary shows in Chicago. I sent in my envelope to GDTS TOO and got the rejection letter...TM public on-sale was a mess and StubHub is ridiculously unkind. So if anyone has some tix they can't use, send me a PM and I'll be glad to take them off your hands! :P
two tix
Hey friends...
Looking for two tickets for any of the three days...I'll pay your costs, and guarantee stories for life.
Thanks, and listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock your soul.

Need a miracle!
Hi there,So, so sad that good people who want to see good music have such a hard time getting tickets. I'm looking for 2 - 4 tickets for any night or a 3 day pass, just like all my other fellow Dead Head brothers and sisters out there.
I need a miracle!

Good luck everyone!!!! Hope you all make it to the show.
I would be ever so Grateful if you picked me to sell your extras
Hi all!
I like many others tried the mail order route and got the dreaded letter. And I like many others got shut out of Ticketmaster too. Such a bummer there are so many of us that want to go with not enough tickets to go around, but that is to be expected with such a rocking, awesome, close to the heart band that has given us so many wonderful and cherished memories over the years.
Although I have been lucky enough to see over 100 shows over the years, I truly wanted to be there for one last time. If you could find it in your heart to sell me a miracle ticket, I would be the most grateful girl ever!!
Last time I saw the dead with Jerry was December of 94 when my daughter was in utero. I would love to be able to have the opportunity to bring my daughter to see them for the first time outside the womb (she's now almost 20...) Please help make this dream come true!
I am looking for 2 tickets to all 3 nights, but will take any ticket, single or double for any night. Just trying to get into at least one show really!
Many thanks! Hope to see you all at the show!

I would be eternally grateful for just one little ticket!
My first Dead show was at Soldier Field and I was at Jerry's last Dead show at Soldier Field (and many others in between!). Both of those shows changed my life. I NEED to be at this reunion show in Chicago. It would make my heart so happy!
If anyone would be willing to help a sister out with a ticket I would be eternally grateful! Peace love and Jerry! xoxo
Howdy yall! Please & Thank you
Looking for anything, was trying to go with my family but had no luck.
Need 3 tickets, 1 ticket, any day, all days?
Thanks, Jason
Need Miracle, Will Travel
Looking for 2 tix to any night for my brother and myself. Would be eternally Grateful. Can afford over face, but not Stubhub. I can't believe the gougers out there for what is supposed to be a Good Family show. BTW.. 2/28 today is my birthday and did not get what I wanted. Please email me with reasonable offers: deucewan@yahoo.com
Peace to all,
Aaron

Help on the way?
Hey All,
Unbelievably sad...I have had my personal share of heartaches in life, like everyone else (for a 1st world country anyhow),
and I am a hospice nurse, so I see a lot of sad stuff...but if I can't go to even 1 show, that thought is soul crushing right now. The music has been such a spiritual sustenance for me, and the Grateful Dead changed my whole life. I know I am not the only one, but gotta put it out there at this point for whatever chance I have of getting that miracle
PLEASE WITH SUGAR ON TOP, CASH FOR YOUR EXTRA'S
Would love 1 ticket to all shows, but would take 1 for any night if that's all I can get
Peace

Hey! I would love to buy your tickets! Please PM Me! Thanks a billion!!

Hi, I was shut out this morning, and would love a chance at your tickets. I still have my ticket stub from Pittsburgh in '85 and Morgantown in '83. I have 2 teenage boys and a husband who will be 50 this summer, and the 4 of us would love to go. Thanks for reading! Bridget

Sorry for the double post. I thought I was replying with one of these! I can't figure out how to delete it yet...

Desperately seeking Chicago tickets!!!! ;)
Desperately seeking Chicago tickets!!!! ;)Hi,
Please PM me if you potentially have 1-2 tickets for any single or all three nights.
We booked a hotel the moment the dates were announced, and will likely be flying in from Asia (where I am predominately based), whether I am able to score 1 night or all three, but were not successful via mail or this morning. We are from the Santa Cruz area, and I am home for the next month or so and can meet anywhere in Northern California for the exchange at ANYTIME that is convenient for you.
Please PM me for my mobile number - I understand you will want to verify that I am an actual deadhead, etc ;), or email me at wvstauble@yahoo.com
Please let me know if there is any way to sweeten the exchange and I will do my utmost to show my gratitude in whatever (reasonable ;)) way!!!
Vaya con Dios,
Will
The Wheel
I'm still in the TicketMonster room, 5.5 hours later, spinning wheel with the damned message from the Monster saying, "Your wait time is less than 10 minutes." Smile smile smiling at that. And GDTS was a fail.
I'd love to join my touring friends of past thirty years who all are reuniting from all over the USA for these shows. If any kind Head has two extra for each or any night for me and my lady friend, we'd be eternally grateful. We can offer your cost for tickets, good food and drink, and great vibes with friendly people at two day/night rooftop party in West Loop. There will be families with teens and all friendly folks. We can perhaps arrange a drive to or/and from the airport to your hotel for you, as well, if traveling from out of town and arrival/departure times work. Please message me if interested.
Cheers and good luck to all.
Feeling Defeated
If anyone has got an extra for the 4th or 5th I'd be ever so grateful. Mail order = denied Ticket Bastard = denied. I've got a hotel that is getting use no matter what but I'd like the comfort of knowing I am able to get in for one night.
Cash for your extra...
Boxed out of the mail order and of course beat down by Ticketmaster. Looking for whatever I can find, any night. Would love to take my younger sister to at least one of the shows. Back in the 90's my folks would not allow her to join me in the annual Soldier Field festivities. I tried real hard to take her in '95 and it was a bust (she was only 14 in '95, big age gap between us). We all know what happened next...to this day she won't let my folks live down. Would love get her close to the real thing. Would appreciate any help. Unfortunately I cannot justify what the scalpers and stub hub are charging nor do I want to contribute to their greed. I'd rather pay the money to a reasonable head that is not looking to make a killing.
Hopefully someone can help a brother out so I can help a sister out.
Add us to the Wanted list
No sob story—just want to be at these shows.
Tried mailorder, sat in front of ticketmonster for 5.5 hours. It's 4:20 now. Go figure. ;-)
Look! I'm a forum member since 2009. Old Heads here.
Trouble with Ticketmaster
Is anybody having trouble with Ticketmaster? I logged on to purchase tickets and it said it was searching for tickets and not to leave the page. Almost 7 hours later it appears to still be searching but I am afraid to log off because on my other computer I can see they are all sold out. Any info?

DM me for my phone # thanks so much, all who are going..travel save and have a real good time
Just Sayin
If anyone thinks someone who hasn't been on the forum for years is not a true deadhead, that's not true. Some of us are not computer types, I still play cassettes sometimes for cryin out loud, and I am one of the few people left in the world that has never been on facebook. I have been a head since I discovered them in highs-school and deadicated ever since forum or no forum.

Very Simply
All those selling on stub hub for 10 to 50 times their purchase price should be shut out of going to the show ... they are not true Dead heads ...but merely Capitalists...I am a believer in the American Way but this is NOT ... the Promoters should find a way to purchase all these tickets on Stub Hub and not pay the seller and then find some fair method to distribute them to the true followers ...I do not even care if it is not me..... I first saw them at the Fillmore East in 1970 when they were still playing with the Riders
TICKETS IN EXCHANGE FOR GOOD KARMA
Looks like no tix from GDTS or Ticketmaster. If you could spare two tix for the 4th (4 would be even more awesome so I can take my adult children who have heard the stories but say they would need to see it to believe it. I tell them you would need to hear it to believe it!) I will be eternally grateful and after I pass this mortal plane will return as guardian to you and/or your offspring...How's that for a Grateful Dead kind of deal? Please message me and we'll make a deal.
I agree, this isn't the way
I agree, this isn't the way Jerry would've wanted this! Deadnet please do something! I never thought in a million yrs dead heads would do this to fellow headers, so sad I'm truly disappointed
I know it's a long shot
I love the Grateful Dead but haven't been able to see them in concert since 1986 (at Alpine Valley). I had so hoped to go to the concert at Soldier Field back in 1995, but it was not to be. I would love to take my husband to see this final concert. Not only has he never seen the Dead in concert, he's actually never even been to a concert! As I'm disabled (I have MS - I use a cane or walker on good days and a wheelchair on bad days), we can do the accessible seating options or the regular ones. In order of preference: Sunday, Friday, Saturday just because of my husband's work schedule. He's normally off on Sundays and Fridays are easier for him to get time off than Saturdays. But we can't afford much more than $100 or so per ticket.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully consider selling us a couple of tickets.
Sue
JUST SAYING TOO
Hey Brother, I am the same way . I don't do Facebook , and consider myself a normal down to earth person that just seeks personal human contact, the old fashioned way.. face to face or snail mail ....lol
I'm not tech say and got shut out twice (mail order) & (TM)
I was hoping to see the boys one last time , bucklist type of thing for me . Well
good luck to you . Maybe we both get lucky from another deadhead.

TICKET MASTER YOU SUCK............ i KNEW IT WAS GONNA BE TOUGH BUT TM YOU DIDN'T GIVE US A FRICKIN CHANCE...... SURE WOULD APPRECIATE 2 FOR 3RD OR 4TH IF ANYBODY CAN HELP OUT. HAVE ROOM AT HYATT REGENCY FOR 3 AND 4TH. IF I DON'T GET TICKETS I WILL NEED TO CANCEL OUR ROOM.. CHECK BACK IF ANYBODY NEEDING ROOM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THX
3 3 night
I have something quite musically valuable that I would like to trade for 3 3 night floor or pit ( plus face value of course). I also have several reservations at nearby hotels for less than $200 per night that might sweeten the deal even more. I was at the last show in Chicago and want to twirl in the exact same spot! I now am sure it's going to take a miracle. Pm me if you want to talk about a trade!
Oddly, I dreamed of Alpine Valley last night - a screaming Fire on the Mountain with the sun setting. The dre was so much better than the day.
T for Texas, yes and it's T for Timbuk~2... needed all nights!

Hey Now 2 tix any night?
Hey Now I'll join this crowd too, even though I doubt it'll come through. Shut out of MO, and no luck with TM. I'll take any 2 tix for any night - preferably in Front of the Stage.
Tickets Gratefully needed. "Might As Well Try"!
Hey folks,So yes, I too did not get my mail ordered filled. First time ever (I have been lucky), the Art Degree didn't hurt either.
Yesterday's experience with Ticketmaster was terrible. Then to see that scalpers were selling 3 Day Passes for over
$100,000.00 and one person selling a package for just over a Million Dollars..... well that made me cry.
I hope that the thieves selling tickets are not Heads, they can't be. Can they?
I have been on the bus since my first show at MSG on 1/7/79 and never stepped off. I need a Miracle and will pay fair market price. I already have my hotel and my flight from the East Coast. I know, silly me should have waited.
I am looking for one 3 Day Pass or one ticket for each night. I am not real picky as far as seating is concerned, I just I just want in. I am a super sweet fun cool lady from the south and would add only positive vibes and love to the scene.
Wow... sorry y'all if that sounds desperate but I kind of am.
Just one ticket for each show for me. Thanks for reading this!
Peace and Hugs,
J.
Hey Pence, I am trying to get
Hey Pence, I am trying to get tickets for the 4th and if I do I will take your room nights if possible. Keep me informed. Ticketmaster blows for big shows and they always have! Rock on bro!
