got 2 tix to the show but they are separate ...one balcony and one lower level...if anyone has 2 tickets together that they would trade i would put in a little something extra to get seated together with my wife so she doesnt have to sit in the balcony all alone...haha...sorry i meant so we can sit together

33 auctios currently on EBay, none of the seats in the auctions are that great. There has only been 2 auctions with good seats and they are completed, one from the presale and one from ticket master, they brought $300 each.


Edit: both the auctions that brought $300 each were from the Vault presage. So far what seats are listed on EBay are not that great. Looks like the real fans are holding on to the tickets they got.

Where were fans able to get these tickets? (besides the vault presale). I tried to get two together and got nothing at Noon. Then I tried 1 ticket and it was so far up under the balcony that it wasn't worth paying for. I literally tried 2 tickets then 1 ticket in the matter of a minute. How did that many good seats sell out in 1 minute, even single seats? What is this mess about the lottery at the Ryman?

The Ryman is a classy place and actually sells tickets to people before they are sold online.
Definitely not a mess.

My reference to "mess"= "malarky". I love the Ryman and just a little irritated that I didn't think about getting the tickets at the box office. And that there would be so few unobstructed view tickets available online - at least that is how it appeared.

MF Section 7 Row R Seat 7. So excited that I was able to get a ticket.

[jamesa615]

I was only able to get 1 ticket MF-3 W 4. I would gladly buy any ticket (plus extra $ troubles) close to there so the wifey can go too. Just by some chance if someone is interested... MSG me.

Fingers crossed... Die scalpers.
