How do you get tickets? Ticketmaster won't let me without some Edge code?

dammit!!! i was afraid this would happen!!!!!

should i pay $100 to see them, or make $100 working at the show?? I CAN'T DECIDE.

i desperately want to see them again.. but man i could make so much money working the show... time and a half!! plus a full day concert!!!

i knew this would happen!
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

Ah! I get home from a great set of shows to find out tickets are now on sale for another Ontario show? I consulted with my very upset wallet and to be honest it wasn't very thrilled.

I crunched the numbers and here is what I came up with:

OLP + weekend show + under 4 hours away - "fest shows" (usually a much shorter set) - lack of funds x pit tickets available = I'm there!

Against my credit card's better judgement, I bought a pair of GA tix!!

*Warning* formula might not work for everyone...I was a communications major with an active fear of math...plus I've been living off of truck stop Canadian candy bars for the last 70 hours...


mmmmm...Aero Bars....

Oh, wow..this sounds like it'll be an awesome show! I wanna go! :(
And if I don't make it known that
I've loved you all along
Just like sunny days that
We ignore because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out
What's wrong

Actually I have no proof. I figured that since the guy looks like they cloned Duncan, but with his hair grown out again, we could call him Duncan's twin brother. He did play guitar though!

I think the 100 section seats are removed to make a GA area which has a capacity of 1000 people. Then is the 200 section, up to 400's, then there's an open lawn section at the back.

And FYI, when I pulled Best Available tickets it gave reserved stands over GAs. This was after I already bought GAs by specifically selecting them, but I found it strange that GAs did not come up as Best Available.

And for the Edge radio station presale, the code is ourladypeace.
