If this trend spills in to the U.K. dates then we won’t be going. I just can’t afford to pay more than I earn a month/more than my rent on tickets. I couldn’t if I wanted to. Shit. What a sorry state of affairs. This. A front row ticket is a monthly salary, ridiculous. Maybe she's not coming to Europe because they couldn't milk us with these prices because no one would buy a far seating ticket for 200 euros. Maybe they couldn't agree on the terms with thepromoters or venues so they went with the rich countries instead. Or, they are charging crazy prices in America because that's the only reason to "afford" doing it in Europe?

This thought has crossed my mind too. I said it out loud today to Jeffrey. But she's always the happiest when we're there. It makes no sense U2 give a couple nosebleed seats GA pit entry just because they think GA is quiet without them and they know their hardcore fans are most likely to end up with shitty seats. I will say... my pit experience was less than I expected. The vibe wasn’t quite right. The night before? The vibe was perfect. I was 4th Row floor because I had gotten lucky enough to get a last minute seat at face value. Made friends with an English couple that pulled me up to their row and we sang our guts out. She watched us most of the night, I think partly because we seemed to be the only people who knew all the songs, but also their Union Jack sign probably didn’t hurt. The ladies I was with that night said they had seen her 20+ times always from the pit but that night was their favorite because of the way you could feel her connecting with us. The following night was the one I had been waiting for since Oct and while it was amazing, it just was not the same. The people around me weren’t diehard. I was around people who were there because they could afford to be there and I think she felt it. She came to our side in the beginning and touched all our hands, another time she signed things for younger kids towards the middle of the catwalk and I got to show her the Whitney t (which she commented on how much she loved Whitney and the song the photo was from without realizing I was trying to give it to her😊), and later she stopped when she realized I was trying to give her the Whitney T and book I brought for her and the kids (while the lady next to me shoved crap into her face trying to get her to sign a copy of Beautiful Trauma) but those were really the only times she fully interacted on our side. The opposite side? That was where the more authentic fans were and she did interact more with them. I knew while I was in line and listening to everyone as they joined the 7 of us that had been waiting for hours that the majority of my side was the entitled “I’m here because I can be” and the opposite was the side that I had been scrimping and saving to make it. She seemed to interact the most with those at the very front of the barrier though. I don’t know about the night prior since I wasn’t in the pit. Thanks for sharing your opinions about this. I will let you know mine in a few weeks.

I got my ticket for NYC! Kinda shocked, I had zero problems, this never happens for me. So I’m stocked! I’ve always wanted to see her in Madison Square Garden.
That being said, these prices are ridiculous, I make enough income to just pay all my bills and have a tiny bit of play money. And these tickets set me back so much. I don’t want to complain because they clearly use the money for the amazing production. But ugh, help the real fans out P!nk! Give shreadnet a discounted price!

She seemed to interact the most with those at the very front of the barrier though. I don’t know about the night prior since I wasn’t in the pit. SAME for me. For the 1st show I attended, I was in the pit. Not my fav experience. Mostly because I didn't see that much. On my 2nd show, I was floor 1st row, right in the middle!. It was one of my best experience. She interacted so much with us. I even received drops of sweat (😂) when she flew over our heads. I was alone for the 2 shows. Maybe if I was with a friend in the pit, it would have been more fun. At least, I would have been less shy to sing out loud. That's the last time I complain about the pit. I will give it another try. I bought one pit ticket for Montreal and try to make friends(!). (But I also found good floor tickets for Toronto and the other Montreal show.)

Okay fuck, I lied. I just used my damn credit card because there was one 2nd row floor seat shown as being left for Charlotte and I just screwed myself by running back up the balance on a card that was almost totally paid off. And I can’t even blame that on being hypomanic since I know I still ultimately am in control of my choices🤦🏼♀️😞. I got PIT for Charlotte...glad you were able to get some tickets

We have to plan on meeting up! well the regular PIT kept saying no tickets available for this search...so then I searched early entry tickets and after about 10 mins it said they were available they were about 150.00 more than regular tickets but these are early entry and I get merchandise which I didn't get the first time. I also get to take my daughter this time which she is going to love it.. she just graduated college so this is her grad gift
