"The tour concept is unlike anything I’ve done before. We’ll keep the mobility that was a key element of the American Utopia tour and Broadway show— but instead of the chain… we will have locations. You’ll just have to come and experience what that involves."
Seeing Byrne for the first time at the BGCC on 11/16! SKYGUY was the pre-sale password and I bought easily as well prior to the 10:00 AM Pacific local time it was apparently supposed to begin.
I did call, number was not working but you know I am keeping it in my contacts. My Miami tickets were $217 for two tickets about 10 rows back in the upper section
Great single. Reminds of his movie True Stories (full onscreen title: True Stories: A Film About a Bunch of People in Virgil Texas.) one of my top 10 movies of all time.
If you haven't seen it, check it out. Surreal, weird, wonderful, full of great music and great actors. Yes. It's true, I bring it up whenever I think of it.
I'm writing a memoir and just wrote about seeing Talking Heads in 1979 Dr Pepper Music Festival at the Wolman Skating rink in Central Park NYC. Fear of Music had just come out the week before the show. The B52s opened up for them. Totally blew my mind. I also got to see them in 1980 with Adrian Belew and the extended line up at same venue before Remain In Light came out
Well, Jill, our appetite for live music is definitely bigger than our budget.
Probably the reason I continue to bury us in crushing debt.
Don't worry, we struggle quite a bit.
But living the high life? Ya, if we can, why not?
Still beats lowlife.
But yeah, cashortrade is sometimes a good option.
I'm not a big fan of the new platform, though.
I tried to miracle some tix for a show at Nectar's the other night, only to find that it's not an option anymore.
You can't list anything for less than $5 now.
There's also this stupid process to get a show added that they don't list. You have to ask jambase to add it. I guess jambase & cashortrade are maybe same company?
Honestly some of the best last-minute deals are often on stubhub. Folks taking anything for tix, rather than a loss.
I have ended up in some nice balcony seats at the Cap, just by waiting until walk-in time to get em on stubhub.
Roshambo, I have no idea about general or which presales are the best. When I heard about of the presale I jumped on them. Bottom line is that I got two floor row T center section for the Anthem in Washington DC for $255 total.
While I try to be mindful of price(I don't buy platinum or VIP) I often have a very specific idea of where I want to sit, outweighing the cost, which means generally buying when tickets first become available. But sometimes things are worth waiting a bit. When Metallica first went on sale the Pit Gas were sold out quickly but a bunch of platinum available. I held off and an hour later a bunch of reg priced tix appeared, 178$ put me on the rail where they were 300+$ at first. My advice, is just use your gut, every show and venue is different sometimes one night to the next...
it can be a stressful tactic but often waiting until just before doors open to buy is when prices are lowest. But that also isn't a rule, I've seen some with good availability stay full price right through showtime. I upgraded myself to front row at McCartney for under 200$ a few years ago right before the show and ended up sitting right in front of Jim Boeheim. I love telling people I got a better seat than JB in the dome lol
my rule is if I see the seats I want at what I'm willing to pay, I buy them
The best time was the first (artist) presale on Tuesday. I got Orchestra Row A at the Dolby for $199. That row was $400-500 later, after platinum kicked in.
My thoughts exactly, hardly a cash grab by my definition. But then again I don't understand the concept of criticism of anything under the context of cash grab to begin with. Really, what isn't?
