Want Tim McGraw Tickets? Don't Get in Line
There's this thing called the Internet. And what it does is, it connects you over a cable wire to the whole world and allows you to buy concert tickets the minute they go on sale. All you need is a computer at your house, your neighbor's house, your work or even the local library. It's really catching on. So WHY are you people camping out for Tim McGraw tickets like it was 1993? But there you are, living like it was the pre-Internet years, putting up tents outside the Great Allentown Fairgrounds in Pennsylvania. And even worse, you are getting kicked out for showing up several days early. Fair officials recommend you line up Saturday (June 20) at 6 a.m. to get seats for his Sept. 4 show. However, I recommend you park that lawn chair in front of a computer and be logged into Ticketmaster at 10 a.m., ready to hit that "buy tickets" button. And then let's see who gets the best tickets.

Tim is a handsome piece of man.

Alison, you should read the article about most country music fans not having access to the internet. I forget where I saw the article–the Washington Post I think. It said something like 60% or more of country fans don’t have internet access. Maybe that’s why they are doing it the old fashioned way, lol. Just a guess? :)
Kim says:
Found the link and it was 50%:

It was a poll done at the 2009 fan fair or I guess it’s called cma fest now? Anyhow, I was shocked to see that 60% of Country music fans DO NOT have internet access!

Way to old he outsold EVERY country artist this decade and is the #1 bestselling artist in country music this decade amd #3 in all of music and he did it with way less albums than Toby and Kenny.

I want Tim McGraw tickets like I want the swine flu.
Mark says:
I love how 70% of the comments on these blogs are negative. People see something they like and they just skim over it and move on. When they see something they have a negative feeling towards, it’s like they think “Wow, I must take the time to put my negative opinion out there and put others down!”

Tim McGraw “ROCKS” they don’t get any better, shame he wasn’t at the awards show last night perhaps it wouldn’t have been so awful, gosh what a disaster it was, rap, rock everything but country! One thing for sure, you go to a Tim McGraw show you know just what your gonna get, the best country show ever! He is awesome, always has been and always will be, see you this summer Tim, can’t wait, your still the best!

I read the Washington Post. I know not everyone has internet access. That’s why I wrote “All you need is a computer at your house, your neighbor’s house, your work or even the local library.” Just a few suggestions since the fairgrounds people didn’t want the fans to camp out.
AlexaK says:
I wouldn’t pay a dime to see Tim. Even that is too much. I am tired of his “holier than thou attitude”. Good Riddance! Tim is overrated as a singer and performer.
Amy says:
This page should be for positive things. Would you like it if we were to dish on your favorite artist? So why don’t we leave this for nice things to say about our favorite person. Thank You. By the way, Tim, you still got so keep bringing it, your still the whole package!!!! Love Ya George but move over because there’s a new King in town always has always will.
MiaT says:
Props to Amy!!! Thanks!
Ahhh, Good Tix to see Tim. I’d stand in line if meant I might get better seats than online. I think its a control thing, Standing in line gives you control. The internet is a crap-shoot. Lets face it the one with the most money wins. Sad but true.
lucy says:
So most country fans don’t have internet. Hmmmm At the CMA fest everyone was texting etc.
Janetgijoenurse says:
Hey Shelly did you not see Tim on the George tribute, he looks awesome, excellent shape and better than ever. You better get your eyes check. Even better than that picture and awesome shape. He also looked classy one of the few that had on a tie to honor George.
Sis says:
All Tim needs is a sleevless T shirt on to be gordious.
Jordan says:
What is gordious?
Jackie says:
I would stand in line anyday for TIM MCGRAW!! He is a awesome artist, singer and performer, without a doubt! Tim Rocks.
kathy says:
The man just keeps getting hotter!!!! Allison, we all know you have a crush, LOL!!!
Sis says:
I didn’t realize I spelled gorgeous wrong, my bad Jordan.
D says:
I agree with AlexaK, ever since him and his wife think they are too good to be in Nashville and Live in LA im sorry they lost their countriness. Esp with both of their attitudes, they are both hasbeens
Janetgijoenurse says:
D you are a so WRONG. First they don’t live in LA and NEVER have. Just cause they have a second home there doesn’t mean they live there. They NEVER have so does that mean that Reba, Brad Paisely, Kenny that have LA homes are Hollywood people.
GET THE THE FACTS STRAIGHT THEY HAVE NEVER LIVED IN LA AND IN FACT THEIR HOME IN LA HAS BEEN ON THE MARKET TO SALE FOR QUITE A WHILE.
THEY LIVE IN NASHVILLE AND HAVE THEIR WHOLE MARRIED LIFE. THEY HAVE A BIG FARM AND JUST RECENTLY FINISHED BUILDING THIER DREAM HOME FROM THE GROUND UP. AGAIN THEY DON’T LIVE IN LA AND NEVER HAVE.
THEIR CHILDERN HAVE BEEN GOING TO THE SAME SCHOOL ALL THEIR LIFE. THE KIDS GO TO A PRIVATE CHRISTAN SCHOOL THAT GOES ALL THE WAY UP TO THE 12 GRADE. THEY HAVE NEVER WENT TO ANY OTHER SCHOOL.
