I WANT TO TAKE A POLL !!! Please take a minute..........
July 31, 2012 by Hot 5150 Teach
How many people got online last year to buy their OWN tickets AND GOT THEM ``` VS.``` How many of those SAME people registered this year for tickets and DID NOT WIN ANY!!
I know I am one of those people, and I am fine with not being the lucky one to be trigger happy and get my tickets in my cart fast enough to buy online. Oh well to me.... What I am NOT fine with is... not being selected by some random selection monster that I could have been faster than to get my OWN tickets!

4 for 4 last year 0 for 4 this year. Done talking about it.
3 for 4 last year and sounding like the majority, NONE this year. wtf? Flight and hotel booked already.
When will the RR team actually apologize for this mess.
How many blogs have i read saying that they got 2-3 and even a 4 show lottery win. Does anyone know for sure if the winners actually had their credit cards charged or just an email confirmation saying they won the show? I heard they haven't charged the cards yet.....hey Redheads, maybe, just maybe they (RR.com)have realized their mistake and are trying to move it outside the Cantina or ....Beach Party? but just need to get approval from the local police first and that is why they are avoiding us all. Fingers crossed fellow Redheads. I could see Sammy doing his best to please us all as usual. Staying at the Palace also 5-19th. Wear the Sammy/Chickenfoot shirts and hats and acknowledge fellow Redheads without tickets while there. Peace and Mas Cabo :)and don't forget, fingers crossed and Keep the Faith that we all get a chance to see our idol. Sammy for President!
Three for four last year. Zero for four this year. One show would have been good enough concidering the method this year. Still going to have the best time possible.
I had tickets to 2 shows last year, and the year before. SHUT OUT this year!!! Planned my vacation around it, glad I had not booked anything yet!!!!!!!!!!!! SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!
All I can add is that it wasnt hard for me to sit and try my luck at the computer last year...I knew what I was up against...its the same for every concert,,,Was lucky to get two shows...This way was terrible...no conformation when the draw started...how...when it was over...me thinks to many friends of the ticket masters got the tix and not the die hards...why be a memeber of a club if theres no benefit to shows..?
I too was able to get 3 of the 4 shows last year and my wife got 2 for the 13th show too. Before that spent many a night in line and had some great experiences. I have been every year since 99 (except 01). This year, both my wife and I got skunked for all shows. I would be so very happy with just one show and know that everyone else got one too. I'm not greedy and love to hear about people going for the 1st time. Just hate to hear about sooo many people with multiple shows and sooo many others left out. I wrote a blog 2 years ago that would have solved all of the problems that happened. It is beyond reasonable thought why the Redrocker team couldn't have figured this out. I have a small business and my IT department could have gotten it right, no problem. Anyway, I'll still be in Cabo trying for the small amount of dinner show tix available. Peace Red Head Nation!!!
Yep, I took the day off work to buy tickets last year and DID get tickets for 3 nights like I needed. Previous years, have had a blast waiting in line. This year, 4 of us put in for 3 shows each and nothin. Sounds like it's time for Sammy to build a bigger place to do his bday. Like maybe Maui :)
I was able to get 2 shows last year with no problem. Actually, got thru for 3 shows but messed up the tickets and didn't select 2 tickets so backed out of the 3rd show. This year I registered for 3 shows and my husband also registered for 3 shows....like alot of the other Redheads out there...we got NOTHING
Last year I got tickets for 2 shows! Yes it was very stressful but I was able to at least try my luck & key punching speed. This year I signed up for all 4 shows, hoping to get picked for 1 show...NOTHING! My husband was thinking about joining me mid-week in Cabo, so he signed up for the last 2 shows...NOTHING.
The weird part about all of this - is that I know so many people who did not get any tickets. Some of them registered 8 times (4 each)....nothing! I just don't get it!
Thank you for taking this Poll. I am curious to see where all of the tickets ended up!
I vote for going back to standing in line in the streets! If the mission was to spread the wealth, then there should not be people getting multiple shows while others get NO shows. In the world of multiple E-Mails, laptops, smart phones, etc......this is what you get. There needs to be a stage on the beach for 1 BIG final show on the 13th for all the fans. The strange thing is that with the economy as it is, the demand for these shows keep growing. Sammy rocks, Red-Heads rock, Cabo rocks.............Demand is higher than Supply.
Live Mas!
GOT MINE ONLINE LAST YEAR NO PROBLEM. REGISTERED AS SOON AS IT WENT LIVE,FOR 2 SHOWS. NO TICKETS. FRIEND OF MINE WHO HAS NEVER BEEN TO A SHOW OR CABO AND LIVES IN THE SAME TOWN, REGISTERED FOR 1 SHOW WAY AFTER I DID, GOT HIS NOTIFICATION AT 1AM ON THE FOLLOWING MONDAY.IT WAS THE RANDOM TICKET MONSTER.MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THIS MAY BE SAMMY'S LAST BASH ;( HOPE NOT
