parking might be an issue too.....there is a SMU-Acadia playoff game at the forum at 7, so I am hoping that won't be a big issue i just hope the venue doesn't suck too bad, i saw Bad Religion there and it was dusty and awful

that sounds about right in terms of capacity and I would guess they could draw 2500-4000 depending on price, we are pretty starved for concerts here

Kyle, where did you grab these dates from? wilcoworld.net lists just the "Halifax Forum" and not the multipurpose room, I think it originally had the multipurpose room listed but they've since changed it, which is a big difference (old school hockey rink vs a shitty spare room that is super dusty)

pumped to see them coming to halifax, but the halifax forum multi-purpose center is gross

correction...most canadian tours end in montreal or quebec city ; ) they seemed to really enjoy themselves the last two times in halifax and fredericton so hopefully they'll make it a true canadian tour.

i was actually very impressed with the crowd, at the end of wilcos set the place was damn near full, which hardly happens at the metro center for the few concerts i've been to.......i thought they definitely should have closed with spiders to get everyone wound up, i thought that would have been perfect on the other hand, it was damn near embarrassing to see the entire upper and lower bowl sitting when the lights came on for rockin' in the free world

me too, can't wait

any word on pre-sales for this tour? i see halifax goes on sale this saturday

PM pretty pretty please

wonderful sound quality is pretty solid, i wasn't expecting much with the venue and all but this turned out great thanks a million....again

when i got up on stage at the fredericton show to annouce the kingpin audience participation i whispered to jeff as i was leaving "where is this abyss that i keep hearing about"...he chuckled and said "i don't hear that anymore"

what a show. we were sitting front row center and had a ball. i was the one that was lucky enough to get called up for the kingpin speech and had so much fun doing it. as i was leaving the stage i pointed to the crowd and asked jeff "so where is this 'abyss' i keep hearing about?", he had a good laugh and said "i don't hear that anymore" i went with three non-wilco fans (including the 6'4'' dude in the front row) and all of them loved the shows i'll post some pictures when i get home tonight. if anyone has any pics of me on stage it would be really appreciated, i have 2 but none turned

i thought the setlist was less then spectacular but it was a pretty good setlist considering probably 95% of the people there were seeing wilco for the first time. i'm a wheel was on the setlist but not played as a closer, but other then that every song on the setlist was played. i was really impressed with the venue/stage/area, i wasn't expecting much out of the dartmouth ferry terminal but it was good.

amen to that....wilco wednesday, wilco thursday then a weekend in fenway....i've been looking forward to this week for a long while

front row center : ) and bad news to those behind me, i will be sitting with a dude thats 6'4'' 300lbs

my thoughts exactly, i like the idea of seeing them in two entirely different venues on back to back nights my only concern is the 5 shows in 5 days, might make for some shorter setlists especially with the long travel between some shows.

there is a thread on the pre-sale/freddy concert over at http://www.jamhub.ca/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-...torder-asc.html http://tickets.com/customerservice/policies_faq.html Tickets.com policies: Pricing and Other Errors If the amount you pay for a ticket is obviously incorrect, regardless of whether it is an error in a price posted on this web site or otherwise communicated to you, or you are able to order a ticket before its scheduled on-sale date, then we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to cancel your order and refund to you the amount that you paid. This policy will app

i am trying to jog my memory, did it say 41.50 on the site initally though?

i would assume it would be tickets.com's fault. the prices were advertised as 41.50 i believe so I am assuming thats the price that wilco passed along, this has to be simply data entry error on tickets.com. and i would think it would make them liable this will be neat to see play out

did they charge you 2.00 per ticket as well? and would seats 5,6,13 or 14 of row I be a better spot for taping?

how did everyone make out? i got in right away and got ROW I, but then it said tickets were only 2 bucks plus shipping, so two tickets cost me 14.50. I refreshed the window and they basically sold the place out in under 5-6 minutes, but I somehow pulled up 2 more row I seats so i bought them at 14.50. It'll be interesting to see how the venue handles this, i am gonna put in a call

you planning to tape if you go? i just finished listening to the portland boot and it was great

i wonder how many tickets were allocated for the the pre-sale

i know officially know what a heart attack feels like i logged in at like 9:59 and got on i then scooped up FOUR front row seats i then fill in all my details then when it asks for my CC verification number i click their "help" link to double check to see exactly what they are looking for. it opens and i close the pop up, but the pop-up turns out to be a tab in firefox and i close the whole window and ticket process, 4 front rows down the drain i go to log back on and everything is sold out. so i keep reloading and reloading and finally get some tickets but I stupidly request 2 tix in

Wilco hitting Atlantic Canada. this is fantastic i've never seen a show at either venue but it should be great the fredericton venue sounds tiny so this should be really cool to see http://www.theplayhouse.nb.ca/seating.html
