Yeah, did not score pit but had great seats for both shows that exceeded my expectations as I would have been happy with nosebleeds. I was also pleasantly surprised at how good the band is playing. You can see they still enjoy playing the old songs and always deliver a great show and never mail it in...it is amazing to me that after 50 years they still have the fire....really hope they add more shows this tour as I would love to see them again..........

Black Sabbath Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Well, I'll be going to one, just not both. Poor wording on my part.Whole thing with the tickets being bought under my mom's name and not mine and them not being able to change it. Bullshit.

James Bond Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Yeah that's total bullshit. I'd keep fighting it. In Toronto even though they told you to bring your photo ID, credit card, and order number they only ended up checking your ID and crossing your name off the list. I think the idea of bringing all three items was to ensure there was back-up in case of an attempt to scam or an oversight. Doing it that way, there is literally no logical reason why they can't accept your credit card and order number in place of your mom's ID (even though it'll be her name on the list).

Black Sabbath Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 "Your picture ID, confirmation number, and the credit card used to make the purchase are required for pick-up. You will not be permitted to pick up your tickets without these three (3) items."Essentially I have 2/3 of them, and can obviously have my ID, but it doesn't say anything about it having to be the ID on the order or whatever. Ugh, it just fucking sucks. Philly is too far of a drive to chance the whole thing. I appreciate the efforts to combat scalpers, but not when it fucks people like me over in cases like these.

James Bond Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 That's what I was saying though - it tells you to have all three but they only ended up checking ID at the Toronto show. If you could still show the order number and card I don't see why that won't be sufficient. Keep fighting the good fight!Don't forget, Powerage was able to use someone else's $85 tickets and they let the guy he was buying from pick up pairs at different times.

Black Sabbath Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 We've tried calling a number of times and still no go apparently. I would think a credit card and ID matching the card the tickets were bought with would be better validation than an ID matching the name on the stupid account, but apparently not. So upset. This fucking sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think if you show up and explain what they told you on the phone initially you'll be okay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I guess we could show up and say it's under my mom's name but lie and say on the phone they told me I'd be fine with the paid credit card and whatnot Goddammit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it wouldn't be lying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 No, what they said is that if we called within 10 days before the show(s), we would be able to change the name on the order to mine, but my mom would have to call in and authorize it since it was in her name. Of course that apparently wasn't the case and here we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Aaron Neville is the guest for tomorrow's show (the one I will actually be going to) Is there voting for a song for this show? Can't seem to find anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Also entered the contest to try to win a pair of Pit tickets for DC. Would be amazing to win those considering I missed the $85 tickets, but not expecting to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
