“IF NO TICKETS HAVE BEEN POSTED FOR SALE THE SHOW WILL SAY “SOLD OUT” - WHEN TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE THE SEAT MAP WILL SHOW THEM”
— ROBERT SMITH (@RobertSmith) March 24, 2023
OK... SO I READ THIS https://t.co/KnMk2tB0ye... AND I DISCUSSED IT… AND I LEARNED “Stubhub is not selling Cure tickets except in NY, IL and CO (where transfer is enabled)” AND “Seatgeek is not selling Cure tickets at all”...

BUT “Vivid and Ticketnetwork cater 100% to broker sellers and are facilitating the activity as described by VICE”
— ROBERT SMITH (@RobertSmith) March 21, 2023
SO… "Don’t buy on scalper sites like Vivid and Ticketnetwork where they are selling accounts. If you need a ticket, Ticketmaster’s Face Value Exchange will be available shortly"...
