kahoosier And that certainly is a WHINER and not a winner!

OK , it was 3 AM June 23 my time, 1 PM Daylight Savings Time in New York June 22. New Member presales for the Hollywood Bowl supposedly start 1 PM Eastern STANDARD time, but I just don't trust it, so I am signed into ticketmaster via several browsers

At the stroke of the hour, yippie, you can now buy tickets via the presale.Thank Goodness I did not wait on the Standard time! Try as I may though, I can't pull anything better than K1 row 8! There are no $454 tickets. There are two bizzarre choices of 102.50 aqnd 103.50; thinking one may be the equivalent ogf the fabled $99 firts five rows, I try, and only one of the prices was available, and it was in the boonies!

Less than five minutes into the sale, the best available is now row 9 in K1. I bite and have another Rolling Stones memebership...three paid for...so question one is are these memberships going to AUTOMATICALLY roll over next year? Will I have to go and cancel to prevent a $300 bill? Question two is more basic, what is the view like from K1? Question three is the whining question, how in the heck can all the front half of the venue be sold out as soon as the ticketmaster site opens?

I am still saving that legacy code for a theater!

Dan Most seats up front at the Bowl are reserved for season ticket holders and box owners. And its not even close to front half of venue sold out as it hasnt even gone on general sale but up front seats at the Bowl are rarely available to the general public.
