Wait... stubhub is like a centralized "hub" for the exchange of "stubs" -- a slang term for tickets -- that other people can't use for American currency. I get it now! Thanks, Yada! I finally get it!

You're welcome old sport!

yeah tickets on stubhub...but you need to show id at will call...sooooo

After years of reiterating how Stubhub works, people on this board still don't grasp the concept.

Is it as complicated as that PayPal doohickey?

i know how stubhub works. can't say i've ever bought (or sold) a ticket that required showing id at willcall though.  I mean yes, i guess you could pay and then meet the person, hoping they show up.  will stubhub give you a refund if they don't?

no one is buying or selling the tickets that have to get picked up at will call.

the SK presale tickets definitely have to be picked up at willcall with id.  Unless you are saying that some scalpers already have tickets through other means

I think the scalpers on stubhub are *anticipating* that they'll have tickets.

Or, more specifically, they are currently asking a price so high above what the actual market price will establish at that they feel confident they can get them through other non-box office means, if necessary, and still clear a profit.

I think what they are anticipating is that non-presale tickets will not be will call only.....

Why couldn't these go on sale tomorrow when I'm going to be in town!?



My guess is there is already a line down the block.
Probably. 

The best option for Friday is the dual album release show for Dope Body and Roomrunner.

Black Cat's FB page confirms if you're not currently in line, don't even try.


my assistant is currently in line.

Wait...did Julian log in to Yada's account...didn't atomic keep talking about how he got his intern to do all his bidding?
Believe it or not, multiple people on earth may have assistants.
