Title: Dinosaur Jr.
Post by: escottc on May 03, 2005, 09:56:00 am
According to my sources, Dino Jr. is supposed to play on July 11th. When are tickets going on sale or is this misinformation? Thanks.

It's old news, and if you go to dinosaurjr.com, presale tickets are already for sale (no clue if they've sold out).

Thanks for your help.
 
 Now for my gripe:
 Yep, they are sold out. How the F did that happen!? Damnit, they weren't even listed on the 930 website or anything damnit!

Well, that's just a "fan club only"-type presale, I think. I'm sure there'll be many more tickets made available when 930.com puts them on sale. Your best bet is to join the 930.com mailing list so you get notice when shows are going on sale. It's almost always a Thursday.

GREAT! Thank you for mentioning the possiblity of a fan sale. That never crossed my mind. I'll keep checking 930 site, on Thursdays. Luckily I do recieve e-mails from 930 concerning concert ticket sales.
 
 Thanks gain for all your help. I feel much better.

Yeah, that was just a limited number of tickets that Dino was selling. They'll be a general public onsale at somepoint. Lots of bands seem to be doing this lately. So if you're a fan, check out the bands websites regularly to get a jump on ticket sales.

Interesting plan. I went with a slightly different variation: I bought 2 tickets for the 9:30 club show, and 2 for The NorVa, and am actually going twice.
 
 If we combined our plans, we could go, like, 4 times.

Are these the pre-sale tickets that you have? Are there any available right now for sale or are those sold out?

The presale is sold out for most venues (Norfolk notably is not, if that does anything for you).

I'm an enormous Dino fan, but I don't see a super-quick sellout. If worst comes to worst, and it does sell out, you could always head to Norfolk, which is a Saturday night, and almost assuredly will not sell out.

i think I'm closer to NYC (which is probably a weeknight AND a sell-out, or lame central park show)

It is a Central Park show, although I think Broken Social Scene is opening for it, although I have it on good authority that everyone here hates them live.

Seventy four bucks for two tickets. Horry morry! And the fact is, J Mascis plays at the Black Cat pretty much every year and it's not like The Fog have a huge catalog. It's easily 2/3 Dinosaur songs, played with a killer bassist. But of course you gotta be there to see if J and Lou will fight or eyeball each other all night or kiss or whatever. And hey, Murph's kids got to eat too. I hope Lou brings his tapes/loops along. Those were always the creamy highlight of the early Dino shows.

i've heard this argument a million times, but no matter what the line up they never made a record as good as you're living all over me or bug
Title: Re: Dinosaur Jr.
Post by: sonickteam2 on May 05, 2005, 12:45:00 pm
maybe i am just a young buck, but i think "Where You Been" is there best album. almost by far.
 
   Bug is great , but every single song on Where You Been is powerful.

fantastic record, but still had murph, and mike johnson on bass

My point is that if you can "out-retard" Rhett, even if only for a fleeting moment, that's really saying something.
Title: Re: Dinosaur Jr.
Post by: walkonby on May 06, 2005, 12:08:00 pm
is rhett the official most hated person on this site?  what on earth did he do to deserve it?  and schools still can out play mike watt anyday of the week.  just my opinion, dude.  that's "opinion," meaning you may or may not agree with it.  calling me a retard because i have a opinion on something, is a typical human reaction.  thank you for proving the true definition of retard.   :p

I didn't call you a retard. I said, "that's the most retarded thing I've heard...." I disagreed with your opinion, I didn't say a thing about you personally.

i am retarted, thank you.  and you are right . . . darnit, i already forgot your name, you did not originally call me retarted, so i do apologize for calling you retarted.  oh how i love that word; it's a shame how so many have abandoned it for there own forms of (good?)taste.  fine thing i only stay on a fake name basis around here, as to not get so involved.  i enjoy the forum from a zoo like perspective. otherwise, all hell becomes a "hot topic" frightening, employee of the year.
 
 mikey watt also is an sometimes a-hole in real life.  go ask him, he'll tell 'ya.  stay in schools; he rules.
