You would assume that one of the main reasons for this type of promotion is to get suckers like me to apply for the Citi AAvantage Card in hopes to get a better shot at good seats.
Spoke to a Ticketmaster Rep about the on sale date for St. Louis and although not confirmed, the word they are getting is that all shows will be for sale this Saturday. We'll see.
How the hell is someone suppose to finish the application process for a new credit card to be able to use it in 5 days for this presale if it takes two weeks or more to get the card? I guess true Van Halen fans already own an AAvantage card, what was I thinking?
For sure anyone planning to get this card to buy tickets for the shows that are confirmed to go on sale 8/18 are out of luck. They are doing nothing special for their fans. Big surprise.
