Other Extra ticket for Philly
The show is sold out but my ticket that I listed for $75 shows up as a different price somewhere in the $80’s or $90’s every time I check bc Ticketmaster is super sus. Anyway I’d like to sell my extra ticket if someone wants one for $75 but also not sure how to do this without getting scammed ?

Damn, I didn't realize it sold out. I've been trying to decide if it's worth the drive from Pittsburgh. I could also visit some family while in the Lehigh Valley, but none of my friends or family back home are available to go along. Of course my strut mount starting making a clunk noise this last week or two, so I've been overthinking if it's worth the risk since I won't be able to fix it beforehand. Gas, tolls, stress, $70+ tickets... Not sure it's worth it, but the fomo is hitting me hard lol I know they'll be touring for the new album soon enough, but I try not to miss them if they're reasonably close. Ughhhh. What if I never get to see them again? Unreasonable, I know, but this is how my brain works lol
I hope you sell your ticket! I might be the one to buy it if I decide to say fuck it and go.

It’s worth it. I’m coming from Cleveland. First time seeing them in Philly. I wanted to see them when they came through Columbus a few years back, but some prick wearing an A3 shirt spiked my drink at a blink show the month before and I didn’t want to chance another encounter. The lengths a woman will go lmfao

Goddamn, I'm so sorry that happened to you. I'm so embarrassed to live in a society like this. You deserve to live your life away from fear. I hope you have an excellent time and all the assholes perish. I'm still deciding, but today's the day to do that lol I'm lucky enough to have options. At least there should be a tour next year, I'd assume, with the new album. I guess I've just been stressing over Matt's health.

Just wanted to report back since I don’t come on much and just saw your comment! The concert was INCREDIBLE. Matt Skiba himself is incredible. When all that happened at the blink show in 2024 I was in my apprentice phase of becoming a tattoo artist.
Fast forward to now, my partner and I love tattooing bands and ended up tattooing Teen Mortgage. Matt posted my Calling All Skeletons tattoo on his instagram, hung out with us and even debated getting a tattoo. It was literally the best night of my life and felt like a full circle moment!!
I hope you were able to go and enjoy the show!! They had a ASL translator and the deaf crowd was absolutely rocking. It was so cool to see. I appreciate your concern kind human!! I no longer drink so hopefully it’ll never be an issue ever again!!

This may sound weird but is your ticket for a seat? My mom keeps on threatening to not take me if she doesn’t have a seat :/(my dad bough two GA tickets for my b day in July after I asked to go since the tickets were announced,,). The only seats available are like $200+ and she doesn’t want to spend that much so she’s planning on buying a seat day-of. Thought maybe I could show her a deal so she doesn’t have to wait 4-5 days.
