Need a quick question answered. I am going to try to get tickets today to an event. Ticketmaster website says tickets go on sale at 10 CST. Does that mean that I won't be able to buy til 11 our time? Thanks Polly

Ticketbastard sucks so much ass it's still unbelievable they get away with it You are not kidding. And most times, when I got on at 10am for the sale of tix, most were sold out already - yeah, right. Wish other groups were like Pearl Jam and stood up to them.

Pearl Jam gave up the fight years ago unfortunately
I've seen them about,.. maybe 10 or 11 times and I believe only 3 times were the tickets not purchased through ticketmaster
that was 2 in 1998 when they first were able to tour after nearly 3 or 4 years of the ticketmaster boycott (which actually did do some good b/c other outlets opened up only to ultimately fail to the ticketmaster giant)
and the 3rd was bonnaroo,... which is not ticketmaster related
every other time was through ticketmaster

At least they did try, which is more than most of the other artists. I am with you, tho - hate ticketmaster. But unfortunately, they are a necessary evil.
