It wasn't Ticketmaster. It was the venue.

I work for Ticketmaster so I can explain. I also have tickets for both shows and my orders were cancelled as well. This venue tries to identify scalpers by looking at orders from out of state and cancelling the tickets. That's what they did here. Fortunately my office works with the Bijou Theatre so I talked to our rep who works with them to get the story and get everything sorted out.

I've had good luck going to the Fox box office instead of buying online but I figured they couldn't help today since it was just a presale. Did you call them or go by the box office?

I'll be in Chicago for the other three shows. Looking for lower level as close as possible. PM me, willing to meet near the venue anytime next week starting Wednesday

Ended up getting a single on the aisle on the main floor, low rows for Wednesday and Thursday. Saturday it put me in one of the "boxes" in the first row of the balcony. Can't complain

I'm just looking for a single for every show and I'm getting nothing

I've flown in to Midway mid-February before and it was fine. They're prepared even with snow on the ground.

Oh my God. The talkers.......

Wilco - 30 August 2016, Salt Lake City, UT (Red Butte Garden)

I did the same MT/ID trip last summer and the Sandpoint show was by far my least favorite because of the setup. Loved seeing that little town but ugh, yeah those people need to get out of their folding chairs and have some fun -
10 best concerts you've ever seen
mondrarytomic replied to Mr andromeda's topic in Someone Else's Song
Brainiac - February 1997 - The basement of a music building at Georgia Tech. Tim Taylor died three months later. Catherine Wheel - July 2000 - They played over 2 and a half hours and I was mesmerized the whole time. The Replacements - Shaky Knees Festival - May 2014 - Got on the rail between Tommy & Paul, epic rain storm about 30 minutes before they went on stage Failure/Hum/Torche - Jacksonville - October 2015 - Three of my favorite bands on the same bill in front of about 300 people. First Failure show with Troy in 19 years. Converge/Cave In/Dillinger Escape Plan - January 1999 - There -
Had my Wilco ski hat stolen from pocket during Atlanta show.
mondrarytomic replied to Boss_Tweedy's topic in Just A Fan
One time at a show at The Point someone came up behind my brother during the band's first song and just ripped his T-shirt off him. I have no idea why but it turned out hilarious since he was standing there the whole show without a shirt on. -
Wilco — 2/10/16, Atlanta, GA (The Tabernacle) [Night 1 of 2]
mondrarytomic replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
A couple of points for myself: - This was my 8th show but the first in the city I live. I've been to the Tabernacle dozens of times over the years and thought it was a great venue for the band. - The omission of an electric encore and the dive straight into the hootenanny was a little surprising. Some of my favorite memories over the last year and a half have been some of the crazy stuff they'll pull out during that electric encore (The Lonely 1, Just a Kid, Dark Neon to mention a few) - I had a seat in the front row of the first level and it was the first time I haven't been down front -

I have an extra (actually two) for Night 1 if you'd like it. Hard ticket so I can meet you outside the venue or before. -
Wilco — 1/25/16, Pittsburgh, PA (Benedum Center)
mondrarytomic replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
That's right, sorry, guess I skimmed through the setlists a little too quick... And from what I'm seeing, a lot of people in Atlanta aren't going to both shows. Second night is sold out but there isn't much demand on the secondary market for the first night. -

mondrarytomic replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
Thanks for the review. I think we'll get a better read for the tour after Boston. Those are the first two back-to-back same venue shows they will play since doing Star Wars in its entirety. I'm hoping they don't play it completely both nights as I'm going to both Atlanta shows (and I already saw it three times in three nights this past summer) -
Walk in to the Tabernacle but don't go straight ahead. Those stairs will take you downstairs. Go up the stairs to the left or right to the next level and you'll see the main entrance. I'm sure there will be some people there maybe between 4-5 pm. Only show I've seen there that had people waiting up earlier than that was Morrissey because, well, his fans are truly nuts. I ended up getting a pair of GA for each show but decided to buy a single seat yesterday for each show. Front row, on the aisle in the lower balcony. So if I just end up going by myself I'll probably put those two GA up for gr

Got GA floor both nights for Atlanta! Use the /events link everyone!

By popular demand...albums you hate by artists you love.
mondrarytomic replied to John Smith's topic in Someone Else's Song
Agree 100% on Weezer. Just absolute garbage for the last 20 years. Disagree on Braid. I think No Coast is great and the songs come off really well live. Saw them a couple of weeks ago for the first time in 17 years and they were just as good. -

mondrarytomic replied to John Smith's topic in Someone Else's Song
Sunny Day Real Estate - The Rising Tide Once on FB I asked "Is it possible to hate an album by your all-time favorite band?" A friend responded with the best possible answer: "Yes, because I hate St. Anger" -
Wilco — 8/16/15, Ketchum, ID (River Run Lodge)
mondrarytomic replied to bböp's topic in After The Show
A little disappointed that we didn't get the acoustic encore again, I thought this crowd would have been much more receptive and appreciative of it than Sandpoint. A quirky little venue at the bottom of a ski slope but it worked well. Ketchum was a cool little town with a couple good dive bars. I enjoyed Vetiver talking about driving down the mountain, if anyone driving from Missoula to Ketchum followed the same route they'd know to what in referring. Thought I was going to plunge off the side of a cliff a few times. All in all that was my third show in three days and seventh in five -
Terrible setup for a show unless you were going to do an all-acoustic set like at Solid Sound. I didn't arrive in town until about 3 pm after the drive from Missoula so getting a "number" was out of the question. I tried to find a place to stand and watch. The "dancing areas" provided a great view of the tent and equipment so that was out of the question. I eventually ended up in the middle towards the back near the handicap area. Unfortunately this was like every other spot there, full of incessant talkers. At least being near the front makes it loud enough to drown out most of the chatt
