VenusStopsTrain2 Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Hey there! Luckily I was able to take my small break at work today and use the net to get my pre-sale tickets for Des Moines. Just wondering who all was planning on going to this? Am seriously bummed about the GA but guess we'll all have a party outside pre-show while we wait when we get there early to claim our places to stand. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deepseacatfish Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I will be there. General admission is kinda nice, as long as you're willing to do some waiting. Wilco is best up close, no doubt about that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricksmith Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Buying your tickets through the pre-sale might help get a good place to stand. At Dallas this year, the staff came through the waiting line and moved all people holding tickets bought at the pre-sale to the front of the line before opening the doors. If you get a funny looking ticket (ours were a different color than everyone else's) that might mean they'll do the same at this show! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deepseacatfish Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I've never had that happen, but hey, I won't complain if it does. Either way it should be a fun show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VenusStopsTrain2 Posted December 13, 2007 Author Share Posted December 13, 2007 I definately wouldn't mind that! Guess we'll have to wait and see when the tickets come to see what everyone else's look like. Any ideas if there is an opening act? Last time I was at a show they had Low open and they had some really bright neon lights..in my eyes...their entire opening act. I wouldn't mind someone I could dance to....

H.Stone Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I've considered the Des Moines show. We hit Iowa City in Oct which was great (although managed to miss meeting deepsea and gogo and others, I'm sure), so Des Moines is do-able. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't mind someone I could dance to....Low was a fantastic opener, I would assume they will have support...but then again I haven't been to a Wilco show where I haven't liked the opening band. I've considered the Des Moines show. We hit Iowa City in Oct which was great (although managed to miss meeting deepsea and gogo and others, I'm sure), so Des Moines is do-able.I don't bite, just ask Ms. Yvon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VenusStopsTrain2 Posted December 14, 2007 Author Share Posted December 14, 2007 Well now we know the opener..that was quick! It's John Doe. Anyone know anything about him? I found stuff on wikipedia...but that doesn't tell me if I'll enjoy his music. I'm excited about 2moro though, going to try and get a few days of the Chicago residency.

redeyedndblue Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I just bought two. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wilco LP #7 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Yes, Iowa City was fantastic. I was a definite for this one untill the Residency was announced. I'll be there if I can find a ride. Iowa City had tickets on sale the day of, so I'm not worried about a sellout. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smaller venues, etc. as long as bands actually decide to stop by. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WilcoOfTheDay Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Yeah, I'll be there now since I couldn't get any Chicago tickets Quote Link to post Share on other sites
