it is not the fault of firefox, it is the fault of web developers who aren't doing their job right

I second that. It's not like there is huge demand for this ala Wilco.

You don't think there are thousands of soccer moms sitting at home desperately trying to get their well manicured paws on some Ben Folds tickets? Think again.

does anyone have this password...I'm a volume subscriber, but have not seen it lately. You can even PM the password to me. I would love to get tix for this.

Why do think I want to go? I need me a sugar momma.

Is this at the 9:30, and if so, when? I must have missed it in Just Announced.
Thanks.

Thanks.
Sunday May 8th at 9:30 Presale is going on now, but I don't have the password :(
-
Not to pile on, but if someone could pm me the password, too, I'd appreciate it.
-
Where was this announced??? I get Ben Folds emails and the 930 emails and NOTHING!!!!
But the password is easy folks....think about it a little! I guessed it and was right.
-
It was announced in this month Volume, you know that newsletter that comes in the mail every month. Mine came yesterday...

Snail mail or email? I don't get a snail mail mailing. How does one get that?
-
Snail mail... and the details on how to get it are posted every month there is a special presale in it. Guess we need another stickie....
-
True, I guessed it too. Go check out his website.
-
Fess up kosmo - Do these actually get mailed to people? I've signed up for this at least 4 times over the last couple of years. I think I've received 2-3 newsletters in that time. The last time I signed up was a month or so ago. Nothing has arrived yet.
Thanks to the folks on this board, I haven't missed anything (yet), but it gets frustrating after a while.

I still get mine in SF, of course they come a few days late....
-
I think if you email your mailing address (too many people assume this is their email address) to list_serve@930.com that these actually _do_ get mailed out. At least something is getting to Kosmo's house.

Its the fault of the developers of firefox who chose not to follow the stanbards. Same as with AOL users having to follow special instructiuons all the time. Its sad that not only do some people think AOL is an ISP (they are actually a proprietary on line server) but some also think AOL -IS- the internet!

um, you have that a little backwards there, Firefox is one of the MOST standards compliant browsers available, Microsoft is the bad one here that has people using all kinds of proprietary code

Does anybody know if this is Ben Folds and a piano/with band/Ben Folds Five?

Nope - I've sent my snail address every time.

Mine is generally right on time...this month, no show as of yet...

Being that Ben Folds Five is no longer in existance and broke up a few years back, I'd venture a guess that it's Ben with a Piano (and Mic probably :) )
-
anyone know when the tickets go on sale to the public?

March 31st

if the "presale" is sold out, does that mean the entire show is sold out? because if it did, i would be really depressed.

When the last solo studio album came out, the first leg of his tour was with a band backing him up. If this show is part of a longer tour - as I assume it is - it'll probably be with a band.
-
i actually just saw him about 6ish months ago; and it was just ben and a piano. so who knows.
does anybody know when regular tickets for this show will go on sale?

Duh....
read the posts above maybe?
-
Wouldn't it be SO COOL if he were touring with WILLIAM SHATNER?!?!?! ;)

No worries. Pre-sales involve only a fraction of the overall tickets for each show. So there will be tickets available during the regular sale.

Actually I didnt mention anything about IE at all. However when I design web pages, I build towards my target audience. When I run them again all code validators they pass for 99% plus of the visitors to my site (based on browers used as determined by the server logs). Not to defend MS or anyone else for that matter, but if one one given product is used by 85% or more of a population then it is cutting your nose to spite you face to not recognize that by default it sets teh standards. Not saying thats right, just the way it is. Note however that FF has started releasing updates, upgrades, and service packs even in its very short life span. So even that falls to code bugs like everyone else.

ie's percentage share is falling, and will continue to do so, by following standards that even microsoft has accepted, you ensure that all browsers will display the site reasonably, there is no excuse for making a site work only in ie when it can easily work in both without even serving up different code to each browser, even a standards compliant tableless site viewed with netscape 4.7 can still present the information in a logical way if coded right, sites dont have to look exactly the same in all browsers, but they should degrade in a way where they are still functional to the user

I read yesterday that the beta was out, and I thought, "they still make Netscape?" Looking forward to it.
