Pogues show...

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

I just assumed if a vast majority of the tickets are sold as will call tickets, and doors open at 10, there's going to be a very long line. Particularly if there is no opening band. But perhaps I assume wrong. I've never bought will call tickets. Actually I have will call tickets for the Nada Surf show in Baltimore, but somehow I think that will be a little less hectic.

I don't know how you would wait in line for 30 minutes without TRYING to get there at the most popular time to stand in line.  If you're waiting that long, you planned it that way. [/b]

It's just this "pre" pre-sale that has the Will Call requirement -- won't make for many WC tickets at all...

these shows are several months away.  the majority of the tickets (those not tagged as will call only) will be mailed out.

I think that ggw said that the other presale, the one that is at 5:30 today, was will call only as well. At least it was for the Friday show.

Tickets are still available at 2:30 EST.  I'm not a Pogues fan, so I won't be buying, but figured those of you who are should know you can still get them.

Pre-sale sold out as of 6:40 PM.  Same for the Artist Arena pre-sale.  Good luck to those purchasing tomorrow!

[Got Haggis?]

i got my tickets for the friday show in the mail yesterday.  woohoo.

[alex]

i'm curious, did the thursday show ever actually go on sale?  i kept refreshing and it changed from not on sale to sold out immediately.

[cjdsloth]

Alex, I saw the same thing.  Went from not yet on sale to sold out.

[sudaca]

same here.  from "not on sale yet" to "no ticket available" in less than 2 seconds.
 
 what gives?

[cjdawson]

Alex, that's what I see too. Very bummed. Trying to call Tickets.com.

[billysbones]

same here.....customer service line is busy too.....

[CuntRag3450]

this is bullshit

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Hey newbies: Just curious...why didn't you buy your tickets during the 8+ hours they were on sale yesterday?

[alex]

I wasn't aware they were on sale yesterday, and besides, I'm just trying to do a favor for a friend who contacted me to get him a ticket for Thursday when they went on sale like 30 minutes ago.
