Does anyone have any details about the Foo Fighters Pre-Sale that starts tomorrow?

so will four presales take place for this show? i.e. weezer, foo fighters, imp, dc101?  and which kick off first.
 
 not wanting ga for the last weezer show in bawlmer, i kept refreshing during the presale on the lower bowl until a good section came up... are there any good sections in the lower bowl at the stinky center?
 
 of course the better question is to they need a dj for this show   :D   Swagger the Musical is ready to hit the road!

aw, that's a shame....although I wouldn't call myself a Foo Fighters fan I do enjoy their stuff, but I do admire David Grohl...or should I say I did until I just found out about a 'pre-sale'. I always assumed he would be above that crap.

I'm going for G.A., so I think it'll be easy.  Their last show at Patriot didn't even sell out, and I don't think they've gotten much bigger since...In fact, seems to me the last album was a bigger seller, but that's just my perception.

Same thing with me, seats at first (and crappy ones), but I knew if I kep refreshing it'd give me GAs. Got two.

Damned if the presale didnt screw up on me.  I wanted reserved.  Had 130 AA.  Click on the button to buy them and it gave me an error sying the tickets werent available.  That sucks...  Got 101 AA which is one section over.  COuld be a lot worse I guess!
 
 See y'all at the show.

I got GA.
 
 It looks like they are already going for double the cost

The only time scalpers ever bother me is when they sell the tickets after the presale, but before the regular sale. They should have the common decency to wait.
 
 Then again, if people are stupid enough...

I got only one GA -- I also got Meadowlands tickets, and we found out there you could only pull up GA if you tried one at a time (and you have to put in Best Available, not GA -- it's all such an insane clusterfuck).  
 
 Worked once for Patriot Center; now I keep getting crappy single seats.  So, now I have to try Saturday for GA...If anyone wants to help, I welcome the assistance!   ;)
 
 By the way, it was a Foo Fighters presale as well.  Those newsletters show up in your email late, though -- I got mine late last night.  I've noticed that I often get them 2-3 days after they're sent, and after the presales.

all this... not to mention that it wasn't on sale at 10am... atleast for me.  It was like 10:05.  First seats that came up for me were section 117...  Then somewhere else.  I almost bought them, but found it hard to believe that the floor was sold out that fast.  Good thing I waited and got two GA tickets.  Anyone know the capacity of the Patriot Center?
