Two lines makes no sense - you'd have to have THREE lines (impossible) to accomodate those of us who have not yet returned or upgraded our tickets.  I bought a ticket for the 23rd and I can't go on the 22nd and that shouldn't make me a second class citizen.  I think the people who originally bought tickets (all 600 of us) to one of the two shows, should have priority, particularly those of us who bought tickets for the 23rd.  It's only fair.  I hope you figure ot a way to do this.  The explanation on DCist makes NO sense.

There should be a rule here where you have to have over 100 posts to be able to bitch about anything club-related.
 
 
 Tickets/ticket sales-related as well.

And Damo sings "Spoon" while Spoon covers "I Am Damo Suzuki"?

I think that the holders of tickets for the 23rd do get priority:
 
 "Bring your unused ticket to the show on the 23rd - it will guarantee entry if presented before 6:45, and can still be used for entry after that time, space permitting."

what a perfect chance for a band to make an entrance through the front of the club while people with flags are chanting how much they're against you.

I disagree. Those are often the funniest posts and easiest to attack.   :)

no one has addressed the biggest issue:
 
 what about the people who RETURNED THEIR 23RD TICKETS?
 
 I returned it. As far as I know, I won't be able to buy it back. That means I can't go to the show? That is a load of crap.

Relax.  The news has been out for about a couple hours now.  It will be addressed...

Based on the DCist explanation, if you buy a lawn ticket to the Shins/Spoon gig, and arrive early at the club on 10/23, you will get into the show.

Regardless of how the logistics for this show work out, I don't think anyone can complain about fairness.  Just because it ends up working out better for some than others doesn't make it unfair.   I'm sure all parties are working to put together the best situation for the most people.

I was hoping maybe they's do an acoustic show in my backyard.

DCIst is down for the moment...
 
 So...10/23 is on again at the club and original tickets will be honored?
 
 If so, my beef with the world is over.

Still waiting patiently for information for those of us who returned our 10/23 tickets when the show was cancelled. How can we attend the show now?
 
 Anyone? Bueller?
