The Darkness Announced!!
« on: February 25, 2004, 09:33:00 pm »
Everybody can relax and breathe a sign of relief.  The Darknesss is now OFFICIAL.
 
 From the 9:30 club front page:
 
 The Darkness
 w/ The Wildhearts
 @ 9:30 Club • Washington, DC
 Tickets go on sale Thursday, February 26 @ 10am through Tickets.com
 TUE. APR. 6
 $15.00
 
  Darkness Tickets Link
 
 Some suggestions so nobody will be disappointed:
 
 The 9:30 boxoffice does not open until Noon so if you want to be sure to get tickets you need to get them through Tickets.com.  Either online, by phone, or at an outlet.
 
 The 9:30 Club Box Office Hours (815 V St. N.W.)
 12-7pm M-F
 12-11pm M-F during show nights only
 6-11pm SAT. during show nights only
 6-10:30pm SUN. during show nights only
 
 Make sure you are registered at tickets.com before the tickets go on sale, this one may sell quick and you don't want any last minute problems registering.

 In case you want to save the handling fee, but not service charge, here is where you can find the local ticket outlets
 
 http://www.tickets.com/b2b/maryland_virginia_outlets.html
 
 To charge by phone or find the location nearest you, call:
 703.218.6500 (D.C. Metro Area)
 800.955.5566 (Their Dime)

 
 and if all also fails
 
 http://www.930.com/mainText.php?p=tickets
 
 and from the FAQ:
 
 Q: What does Sold Out mean?
 A: Sold Out means that there are no more tickets available for purchase.
 Duh. But you'd be surprised at how many people ask that one (this is the FAQ, after all). The good news is, you can buy tickets early, and avoid feeling like you just don't know how life has passed you by. So, if ever that old slogan applied, it does here: "Don't delay do it today!"
 
 Note:  If the show does indeed sellout, all requests for tickets posted in this forum, will either be moved to the  Ticket x-change forum or deleted depending on how the moderators are feeling that day.

Well, since 10:01 Tickets.com has been saying "Tickets are not available together in the quantity you requested in this section at this time. Please try a different section, or fewer tickets."
 
 The quantity I requested being "2"
 
 Should I take that as an indication that it sold out in less than 1 minute?
 
 Or is this just more Tickets.com technical trouble?

Does this mean that you two both actually want to see the darkness?

I think it will be a fun show.

I think these guys fall into the "Oh, man - you gotta see this" category.  I expect it to be horribly fun.

I called tickets.com at 10:05 and the lady told me it was sold out.  I kept trying online and at 10:17 got through.  I wonder what's going on...

I just called and was told the show sold out in three minutes. This after trying to purchase tickets for 10 minutes via the web and being told that tickets weren't available in the quantity I requested (Qty 1) at 10:00am.
 
 Something doesn't smell right.
