duzer Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Thanks for the info and advice! I guess I'll skip the presale then and just wait until Sat. In you're experience though, Have L.A. Wilco shows sold out immediately in the past, or is there less of a demand out here and tickets tend to be sold gradually? LA shows are victims to lots of scalpers. But So Cal is also the land-of-many-flakes. If the desire is there, you can get a ticket, a good ticket with just a little effort. It is worth trying. If you are on it at 10 you will get a ticket. If you miss the opportunity, keep an eye out here, craigslist or just go night of. Always tickets to be had for any show Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Kinsley Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Shit. I registered the other day so I'd be all set, got into the site right away, and when it asked for my password it came up as incorrect. After taking 2 minutes to sign up...

Mr. Kinsley Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Just talked to a buddy who did have his password and everything ready and he too was unable to get any. They must have put out an insanely small number of tix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mkush001 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 i bought the santa barbara tickets and had my friend get the la tickets and he got section b row b, absolutely nothing special and pretty mediocre/bad seats for a presale. but at least i got good santa barbara seats and saved a bunch of money over ticketmaster tickets.

duzer Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 SEC A ROW B 38, 40 had those same seats last time around.... you may get very lucky and actully have no one in front of you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walkunafraid Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 had those same seats last time around.... you may get very lucky and actully have no one in front of you. Cool. How was the view to the stage from there? According to the seating chart it looks like they're the very last seats on the outer edge of the row. How'd it work out that nobody sat in front of you?

How'd it work out that nobody sat in front of you? look at the seating chart here http://www.2-tickets.com/venues/GreekTheatre_LA.gif Row A only goes to seat 20... therefore seats 22 up in Row B actually become Row A - i was a few seats towards the center - view was great with room to boogie. I would take them again in a heartbeat. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

duzer Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Where do we find the pass word for the KCRW presale? not sure... but it looks like you already typed thier password in all caps... they usually use thier call letters for the presale password Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cnorton13 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 cool, thanks. I will give it a try Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would take them again in a heartbeat. Wow...thanks for the seating chart. My seats look great! It's been a while since I've gotten big-time luck with seats for a show...the last two shows I saw at the Greek (Arcade Fire and Fiona Apple / Damien Rice) I was in section B, which is fine and still beautiful, but there's nothing like being right up front. I'll be singing and boogie-ing away, and it will be nice to know that there will be nobody in front of me. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
omahawilcofan Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 it will be nice to know that there will be nobody in front of me. Except for all the people standing in the "Pit" area. You'll have to look over them. But still...your seats are very nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chuck Turner Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 yikes presale is tough . . . will have to wait for sat. 10am T.M. . . . if THAT fails - if theres anybody out there from the "New Music Monday" days, could you take pity on me and sell a spare ticket.
