Talk about corporate sellout…. That’s a bit gross for me….shows specifically for AMEX holders? Might make for some great preshow banter
Calculating the Marriott Bonvoy points you have accumulated with the ticket purchase while listening to Losing My Edge is classic losing of one's edge.

we're all in this together: U.S. risks losing its ‘edge’ without big infrastructure spending, Biden says

Brooklyn Steel is 1800 capacity so if you think you can move 36,000 tickets that is impressive

These shows will sell out on the first day of onsale. Now accepting wagers.

presale tix sold out immediately.  these are the most rabid fans so you'd expect even higher demand than for the public onsale, but it certainly bodes well for my prediction.  apparently three of the shows are exclusive AMEX cardholder-only shows, all tickets were available this morning, and all sold out.  sounds like a sizeable portion of the tix went on sale today.

All the fan presale dates sold out within five minutes. It was insane. Hoping tomorrow goes a little smoother but I'm not optimistic.

Wired: RHCP + Beck + Thundercat + Crashing at Smackies @ Levi's Stadium on a Friday

F I E L D   T R I P ! ! ! [/quote]

I feel the need to be VERY clear about this.

I love you all and hope to see all of you very soon.  But there is ZERO chance that I go to the RHCP show.  That band makes me go in to convulsions on the radio and I know for a fact I would not survive a show.

That being said, if you all do a road trip, I’m here for you.  The Strokes are headlining Outside Lands this year and yes, that’s a far cry from The Fillmore let alone Bill Graham Cvic Auditorium.

We're just going to buy you a VIP ticket and assume you'll come around. Please reserve the couch for me -- I'm cancelling the St Regis reservation.

You're under the impression we're DRIVING 3000 miles?

Bots ate up all the tickets for the LCD residency this morning. Had two browsers open, logged in before 10am and nada. Trash.

Can't confirm. Bailed on that bet a few days ago due to too much fine print.

Just keep your eyes peeled for weeks/months to come. Tickets will be a plenty.

Edit: Tickets haven't even gone on sale yet.

It always is with these guys in NYC

I don’t trust them not to be playing games on the resale market

We've got a crib for you, but your Mrs wil need somewhere to sleep. 

And also, getting from SF to Santa Clara is a nightmare.  For at least that night, you should consider staying down the peninsula.  There is a Four Seasons about 10-15 miles away, but really the Hilton or Hyatt are nice and right next door.

I was going to consult with you on this very issue but I see you've anticipated and saved me a text.

Aging folks like us aren't going to continue to pay $100+ a show for a Pavement reunion year after without new material, at least me personally.

i'd argue this is the only think aging folks will pay for: they want nostalgia, not musical challenges.  the eagles haven't released anything new in ages yet they continue to sell out arenas at high ticket prices.

pavement = our generation's eagles??
