Ticketmaster released more dates and sales dates:

July 14, Calgary, AB - Onsale to general public on 11/16/09

not according to BJ.com, it's not on the list at all LOL

I know, I thought it was pretty funny that they are releasing dates for ticket on sale but it's not posted on BJ.com that they are going to Calgary ???? Who knows.... I just keep checking to see when to expect my Detroit tickets to go on sale...

So does it make it OFFICIAL or not LMAO Wink

Well, I will take it as yes, because if you buy a ticket for the concert and they are not playing then I would say there is a major problem.... ROTFLMAO Well, let's wait until November 16 when they are supposedly going on sale and then, it will be probably official by then... LOL Very Happy

Just found out about the pre-sale for the Detroit show !!!

Onsale to general public: November 9, 2009

Internet pre-sale: November 5-8, 2009

American Express: November 5-8, 2009

Ticket price range: $29.50 - $129.50

What is interesting is the little Please Note:

"Consumers that preorder Bon Jovi's new album, The Circle, through Ticketmaster can purchase up to 8 presale tickets. When viewing tickets during the presale timeframe, if you wish to purchase them, one digital album will be added to your ticket order for a price of $10.84 (includes applicable sales tax). This offer is only available to U.S. residents and does not apply to VIP tickets."

So, does this mean that if I didn't pre-order the CD, I won't be able to get the Internet Pre-sale ticket ????

If I can without messing up the book, I'll scan the pages and post them Wink

Hey Jon, it's good to be 47. Wink

Heard WWBTF today on a commercial for the 2010 Winter Olympics on NBC. Very Happy

BrittanyJean1989 · Posted: Thu, Nov 05 2009, 4:40 AM

Well me and my mom are desided that we are not going to see Bon Jovi this year over at Nashville, TN because me and my mom saw them last year.

primeaugurl25 · Posted: Thu, Nov 05 2009, 5:44 PM

Not too happy right now.... because I live in Canada but live like 5 minutes away from Detroit, I cannot purchase my ticket today for the BJ concert in Detroit !!!!!! I had tickets and everything and when I went to check out, it says that my billing address HAS to be from USA !!!!!! WTF, i never had that happening before to me, I had no problem buying my DL ticket the same way Mad

I guess i'm not allowed to be part of the Internet Pre-Sale.... BULL SH*T !!!!

RetroLoretta · Posted: Thu, Nov 05 2009, 6:13 PM

OMG that's not right !!!!! Rolling Eyes

I never heard of such a thing, complain to someone over there. It's not like it's a freaking contest !!! oh wait ,maybe it is, if your lucky you get the right tickets Rolling Eyes

primeaugurl25 · Posted: Thu, Nov 05 2009, 8:40 PM

I don't know WTF is the problem but I will wait until Monday when the tickets goes on General Sales and see what is going on. Also, when I looked for tickets, it never gave me tickets on the Floor (only the last back section out of 6 Floor section).... then, I check to see if I would be the Platinum package at $1750, then I got Row 1 of the center PIT, then, if I would be $575, then, I got row 1 of the section C which would be right in front of Richie... so hopefully, when they realize that nobody can afford those tickets by Monday, they will release them and I will be able to explain spending $150.00 for a front row ticket in front of Richie !!!!!! LOL

Sorry to say, but the VIP packages are a hot item! Fans are finding the money....the Nashville VIPs are sold out! As time goes on, those VIP packages will be bought....

Sorry to hear that you couldn't get a ticket. I saw somewhere on the concert maps site--ticketing for BSWJBJ--that they only sold to people with a US address.

That's so bullshit if you ask me, i live litterally 5 minutes from Detroit and I can't buy a ticket online to go to the show, but if i spend $1750, they do let me !!!!! *shaking head*

Bon Jovi have sold out of these cities for VIP packages:

Seattle, San Jose, Glendale, Anaheim, Auburn Hills, 2 Philadelphia, Washington DC, St. Paul, Dallas, Atlanta, Nashville, Tampa & Sunrise FL, & Charlotte.

That is a huge chunk of change being dropped for the most expensive VIP packages I've ever seen for a tour.

I don't say that this is right in any way and I was *tempted* to buy a VIP package for myself. It's the fact that you have to buy 2, 4 or 6 that stopped me. I'm going to the concerts alone.

There was a big problem getting Nashville tix. Ended up going through the Ticket Master presale today. However, I did manage to get a floor seat for Chicago. All's well that ends well, I guess.
