Radiohead - discuss possible venues here

The waste seats I got a few years back at Merriweather were alright but not "great" (left center ~ 25 rows back).
 
 The best of the best tend to already be in peoples hands, yesterday on Stub Hub there were numerous GREAT tickets for sale for insane amounts.  
 
 O well, I just hope "GA, Standing" really means pit at Nissan.

[eros]

One has to assume that "GA" tickets are in the pit since they cost the same as the seated ones.  On Ticketmaster the lawn tickets are of the cheaper variety.  Still it is strange that they labeled it differently than the other shows.
 
 My waste tickets I got for Philly last time were great - 7th row in the center.
 
 Either way, it beats screwing around with it on Saturday.

dang. What time did the WASTE site tix go on sale?

[sweetcell]

i'm 99% sure that the GAs we bought today were pit.  would be happy to bet on it (hey, football season is over, gotta find something to take its place         )  we paid $61 for each ticket, which corresponds exactly to the highest price on TM.  they also have cheaper tix at $41 - those have to be lawn.  i've never heard of anyone getting bad seats through waste.  now accepting all wagers.
 
 i got 4 GAs for nissan right off the bat, then 2 seats for houston.  after some refreshing, i got 2 for dallas (i have a ton of friends to visit in TX, what a great excuse to go spend a long weekend there).  and after a TON more refreshing, i hooked up another boardie with a single to nissan - at around 9:40.  perseverance paid off.

i got my first order confirmation e-mail at 8:56, so presale probably started 2 or 3 minutes beforehand.

Got two reserved tickets for Nissan!
 
 GA Standing absolutely must be pit. There is no way they would charge the same amount as reserved for lawn. Don't worry about it.

I got two seats.  I got a bit scared by the ambiguous "GA/Standing" and settled for seats.
 
 I may try to get pit tickets on Saturday.

Are waste presale tickets will-call?

[sweetcell]

you eff'ing nervous nellies: from  Official Ticketmaster site. Radiohead tickets Nissan Pavilion Bristow, VA, Directions, seating chart.
 
   

Additional Information:
 Gates will open at 6:00pm. This event has a GENERAL ADMISSION PIT. There will be no seating in the pit area and location is on a first come, first serve basis. For the location of the pit, please use GENERAL ADMISSION PIT seating chart.
 Ticket prices include $6 parking fee.
 

rusty: in the past waste tickets have been will-call.  apparently this time most of them will be mailed (although i've also read that waste is reserving the right to make any tickets will-call).

[jb1677]

The confirmation email says:
 "Tickets will be mailed by a secure insured delivery service. Your signature will be required."
 
 That makes me beleive that they are not will call, then again it could just be a form mail and they will turn out to be will call.

Any chance for special, commemorative tickets like the ones from Amnesiac tour?

[manimtired]

looks like the nissan pavillion boycott isnt going so well.

[RustyOrgan]

Why would i boycott Nissan Pavilion?  I know Live Nation / Clear Channel is crappy but it's important to chose our battles... right guys??
 Honestly, who really gives a shit? I want to see fucking RADIOHEAD!

You do know, just to spite the release of a "Greatest Hits" album, they aren't going to be doing anything approaching a "tune," don't you?
 Why don't you just get one of those cheap Casio keyboards, program it go "bleep-bleep-bloop" and mumble in some pissy Oxford accent about how the Earth is doomed and how George Bush is Satan?

 P.S.  Oh, and don't forget to draw smiling bears on your Etch-a-Sketch.

They're going to be will call for people who are planning on scalping them.
