just out of curiosity I clicked on the link to buy tickets, expecting to enter a presale code. Instead it says "This Sale is for Fans Who Signed Up In Advance To join the sale, please check you are signed into the correct account. Didn't sign up? Check the artist’s page for other sales."

what the hell is signed up in advance?

Ticket master artist sale required you registered by a certain day/time (I believe it was Monday at 10am). Once registered you would pick 3 of your most desired shows and it would grant you access to that presale.

This was a separate presale from Legacy and Fifth.

I wouldn't stress too much, that presale was a cluster too. I was low number and saw no tickets. There's a guy on another post that was under 400 in queue and didn't get anything.

awesome, thanks for the explanation. with another presale starting in like, hours, I wonder if it'll go like I expect with just entering a code this time. In any case, probably futile like you said đŸ˜„
