Thanks Jarkko et al.!!! I scored Front Row Centre seats for the Ottawa Scotiabank Place show in Floor Section CB, Row 1! It appeared that there were quite a few Front Row seats in the presale inventory this morning for Ottawa. The Diamond VIP Package seats included Section CB, Row 1, Seats 17 to 29 ...

Great news... I'm looking forward to the Ottawa date at Scotiabank Place!

Any word on what will be included in the VIP Packages and if they will go on sale at the same time as the Forum Presales? A Meet & Greet with the Man himself perhaps???

All the best.

I look forward to meeting all of you at Darcy McGee's tomorrow tonight before the show. I will be sitting at the show with a buddy of mine, Jean Lortie, in Row BB-5 & 7. All the best. Jonathon PS: John Fogerty at Scotiabank Place tonight was excellent... 2 hours of all hits, all the time in a hi...

Just when you thought that they couldn't release any more prime seats for the May 25 and 26 Ottawa ON shows...

They have released Orchestra Row B (8th Row) centre seats for both shows... at least Seats 6 through 16 for both shows!

All the best.

They have released close Floor seats for the Kingston, Ontario show at the K-Rock Centre. You can get at least six second row centre seats together in Floor Section 2. I would assume that you can get similar seats and perhaps even front row seats in Floor Sections 1 and 3. Tickets can be purchased v...

2:55 PM EST Fri March 20th More Ottawa ticket releases for both shows... including four front row seats (Orchestra Row BB Seats 21, 23, 25 & 27!) for the May 26th show! There are second row seats in the Ticketmaster system for the May 25th show. I'm not buying any more! lol All the best. Leonard...

I attended the big budget The Watchmen movie on Sunday and was surprised to hear two well-placed Leonard Cohen songs in the soundtrack... Hallelujah during a love-making session between two Watchmen Super Heros in a pseudo-spaceship and First We Take Manahatten during the ending movie credits. I kne...

9:55 am EST Monday March 16th

There are second (Orchestra Row CC) and third row (DD) centre seats now in the Ticketmaster system for both Ottawa, Ontario, Canada shows. Get them while they are hot!!!

All the best.

I should also point out that none of the Platinum tickets listed for the Ottawa shows on Ticketmaster TicketExchange/Marketplace were put up by scalpers, brokers or individuals. First of all the Sell option in TicketExchange was not available for the two shows and secondly, if it had been, the ticke...

Thank you Jarkko and Marie for all of your efforts to clarify the situation but Colombo's assessment is right on. Platinum seats WERE being sold through Ticketmaster Exchange/Marketplace for any of the Canadian shows that I was following on Ticketmaster when tickets first went on sale. For the May 2...

THURSDAY MARCH 12TH MIDNIGHT Still a few pairs of 6th row Orchestra seats in the Ticketmaster system for both Ottawa NAC shows. Since quietly dispensing with the Ticketmaster Marketplace option for both Ottawa shows, they have been dropping the former Platinum seats into the Ticketmaster general inv...

The Ticketmaster Marketplace option for the Ottawa LC shows were quietly stopped a few days ago and each day since, they have been slowly dropping the unsold 'Platinum' seats into the general Ticketmaster inventory. I have noticed some pretty impressive seats (3rd and 4th row Orchestra seats as well...

I saw that article in the Wall Street Journal and it is one of the first media reports that officially 'outs' promoters and artists for the scalping of their own tickets through Ticketmaster TicketExchange and/or Marketplace. I as well as others in this forum have been making the same claims in earl...

They have released seats in Loge 7 and Loge 11 for both Ottawa Leonard Cohen shows on May 25 & 26).

There was also a pair of 6th row centre seats (Orchestra Row GG Seats 5 & 7) for the May 26th show that I bought for some friends!

All the best.

Not withstanding the cash grab by LC using presales, VIP packages and Ticketmaster Marketplace, BE PATIENT! There will be tons of quality ticket releases as the shows near. There will be all of the typical ticket holds in addition to the many unsold Marketplace tickets. Just keep checking Ticketmast...
