they aren't going to have dynamic pricing on warehouse tickets (not because they aren't greedy enough to do it but because they aren't going to commit the kind of resources it would take to implement)

That's probably what we'll end up having to do, but it sucks for people to have to lose out on money when they paid face value through the primary seller for the tickets. That's probably going to drive sellers away from selling here.

    MSG pro-tip (applies to others as well, to some extent): Wait until week/day of show to buy tickets. Stage gets built and venue realizes they can sell additional side lowers that were held back. Worked great for the MSG shows in NOV, and others have mentioned the same for other MSG shows. Probably old new to many, but MSG seems to hold back an unusually large number of side lowers.

    They have been doing dynamic for a while, like juuuuust before COVID hit. Those early 2020 tours announced in Jan/Feb/March 2020 had dynamic for some shows (My Chemical Romance tour, etc). Saw it on TM but noticed DMB hasn't done it all. They do the platinum tickets which are absolutely absurd but at least those are only a few rows of the venue.
