No, they're sold out (according to tickets.com).  They went on sale at 10:00 a.m. this morning.

I was getting the SOld Out message at 10:02. Unreal. And I didn't get the email blast for the presale.   :confused:

I wonder if 99% of the tickets sold during pre-sale?  Seems weird to me.  Did ANYONE here get tickets for the B-52's this morning?

I'd suggest you keep trying for a while.  Don't give up yet.

Hee hee, I am at a business meeting and keeping trying is gonna be something of a challenge. My boss already is giving me the hairy eyeball for having the aircard out and not paying attention to what this customer is talking about... I'm just super-annoyed because I get all the other email blasts, just didn't get the one for the presale, or else it went to Spam-world. Who knows... <sigh> will have to check the B-52's tour schedule, might have to make a road trip elsewhere...

Bombay Chutney, thanks for the "keep trying" advice!  I eventually got tickets.  I was about to give up and say f*ck it!   :)

It's a homo conspiracy. We're the ones making it difficult for you to get your Smashing Pumpkins and Hannah Montana tickets. We ARE worse than terrorists. We're also the ones putting drugs in your drinking water too.

Since when were the B52's a band for gay folk?
 
 Mind  you....if the place will have gays in the crowd you know it will be a great time.
 
 Never seen them live personally but I've heard disapointing reviews of their live shows from friends who have.

This show is not even close to being sold out. There are plenty of tickets still available.

first they want to make me marry another man, now they're forcing me to go to the B-52s and Cindy Lauper concerts.  
 
 damn you, gay conspiracy, damn you all to hell!

Um, Houston is awfully gay as well.  Take a trip out to the neighborhood known as Montrose . . .

I guess I'm a fag then!!! Who knew?
 
 
 *actually I'm kind of over the B52's but they were fun, and I'd still drive 10 miles and pay $25 to see them now*

I think tickets.com was having some drama this morning. I just bought my tickets with no problem--- almost 8 hours after they were listed as Sold Out... jeez... if I were the 9:30 I would be raising hell with tickets.com for their crap technology because I am sure some people saw Sold Out, refreshed it once or twice, then gave up and won't bother checking back.
 
 I've seen the B-52's a couple of times--- once they were pretty lame but all the other times, they were highly entertaining, so I'm thinking this will be a fun show.

That festival with the Bs and Lauper would be cool EXCEPT Rosie O'Douchebag is the MC.  How in god's name can anyone in their right mind think that having HER associated with their function would be a positive thing.  She is such a shrew and carries such negative energy about everyone and everything.  I would however pay to see someone run up on stage and punch her square in the face.  That would be funny as dirt.

The June 7th show at DAR doesn't have Rosie O'Donnell.  I think the excellent Regina Spektor is taking her place.  Teagan and Sara are cool, too:
 
 Cyndi Lauper
 The B-52s
 Regina Spektor
 Tegan and Sara
 with Host
 Carson Kressley

I must say that their new album in 16 years is surprisingly great!

I don't find dirt very funny to be honest.

but as any self respectful forum member would say, "it's at dar, though."
 
 and carson is just as frightening to the gay community as he is to the straight.  i was hoping for ryan seacrest.  doesn't he host everything else?
 
 i'm not sure if i'm tired and over all the freaking women singers and bands that supply entertainment to and are supported by the gay fan boys who are looking for something to do besides the boring butt stares at bars and nightclubs just to be date rape drugged at.  b52s, madonna, annie lennox, cyndi lauper, or any overweight black woman from any decade, not just the eighties, apply here.
 
 i do like the fact that the b52s might sell out quicker than lou reed.  andy is smiling in screen print.
