RovingReporter Not even press. I have tried dozens of times with no luck. They are INSANELY difficult, especially if they are coming to a small-market area.

Although, every side project has granted press tickets. I don't know, maybe it's a thing.

SicMD nope no problem just change...... I just figured all those years of giving away miracles to people would bring me karma tickets for ever... I guess now just being able to be 10 rows back on the floor at msg for new years and having to pay for them is stillgood karma.... Ive miracled people on some of the hardest shows ever to get tickets for, halloween 94, hampton 2009. Like i said its just change. In all my years ive never had to send an email directly to the band with credit card #...

I heard the same thing even as far back as NYE last year. Especially because of Trey's sobriety. Certain people are sort of shunned now as far as free tickets and backstage passes go. Even long time friends of the band. Kind of sucks. But you gotta understand on a certain level.

I don't know... it seems to me like it's an attempt at covert bragging. Not a good look, either way.

flatbottomfrank I got comp tickets and backstage passes to Starplex in 98. It really wasn't any big deal to be back there and would have probably rather been hanging with my friends. Never tried to get them again. A friend of mine from highschool is Treys cousin.

spacecoyote I once walked up to a kid who couldn't have been more than 16, standing in front of the Spectrum with his finger in the air, it was December '97. The show was seconds from starting and I had an extra, so I walked up to this kid and his friends and in the best McNulty voice i could muster said "Alright, no body move. Lets see your hands, nice and slow". They all turned white. Well, they turned "white-er". When the trembling hand of the miracle-seeker presented itself I slapped the ticket down in to it and wished him well.

As I left them standing there, booking my way up the steps and past Rocky I could here his song of prayer, "Oh shit! Holy shit, man! Jee-zus Ch'rist!! Thanx!"

Now, gimme free shit.
