ARRRGH. I got the e-mail from Best buy this morning, telling about pre-sale codes for Reward Zone members. I go through the sign-up process (I've never made an account on their website), and click for the DETROIT show. I get a pre-sale code for DALLAS! I try to go back and correct the mistake, and it won't let me choose a new city.

WTF is Fan Tour Club bullshit? $100? You've got to be kidding me. I assume all that's left for general public sale is crap seats.
Fuck them. Greedy bastards.
And where the fuck are DC/Baltimore dates? If they do play DC, I certainly hope they play at a large venue like RFK or FedEx instead of MCI Center.

What a fucking Mickey Mouse corporation Best Buy is.
After trying for over 4 hours to get through to the Reward Zone (their phones were down), I was told that the reason I got a code for a concert 1,200 miles away is because "all the codes for your area were taken, so you got bumped to another concert."

Red Dog, Police tried to book M&T Stadium but could not due to the Ravens. They are still trying to get to DC, but are having issues because of Skins/Ravens/Nationals.
Most likely, I will try to go to Hershey.

I got the Best Buy code, but at 10:01 it was saying there're no tickets available. I find this highly unlikely, and I've tried different combinations as well (1 ticket/2 tickets, etc.). Not a very happy camper at present!

The other I was looking at Best Buy Reward Zone and was clicking around out of curiousity. Well, I didn't read fine print so now I'm screwed out of a code for Tampa, the only show I'd consider going to. Is it worth calling trying to get them to give me another one/new one?

I enter the code at 10:02, it took me three tries to get through the stupid verification...I couldn't read the stupid squiggly letters. By the time I got through about a minute later tickets were gone..all combinations.

Anyone know what happened with the Las Vegas show? There used to be a 6/13/07 date at the Best Buy site; now it's changed to TBD and Ticketmaster doesn't even list the city as part of the tour. I guess there must be some problem with the date as far as availablility or perhaps confilcting with a big fight?

This tour is nothing more than a retirement fund for The Police......the money-grabbing bastards. Well done to the multi-millionaire Sting for his two-fingered salute to the fans!!
I'll wait for the DVD and buy that.

...Just checked, and I'm not sure if Det. is what you were looking for, or if you were looking for any particular seat, but some behind-the-stage seats came up for me when I just checked out of curiousity.

does anyone not care about this? yes, reunions are good...but the other two members are really nobodies and seeing sting solo playing police songs probably sounds the same.........

As for the tour, it's a ridiculous money grab but I'll be at the St. Louis show.
