sharkycharming Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Wilco is a very popular band in the Baltimore/DC area. The Lyric is a relatively small venue. I am not surprised it sold out right away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouisvilleGreg Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 no luck at all. i'm looking for two. any help would be greatly appreciated. I've posted in the ticket exchange, but this thread's much longer, so thought I'd try here as well. thanks, greg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Speedy G Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I started trying at exactly 10:00 (according to the US Navy official clock site), but kept getting the 'tickets not yet available' screen. Then, I got locked out for trying too hard. WTF? I hate Ticketmaster. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ticket Bastard does blow, but sometimes you get lucky. Good luck, I bet you can find some if you keep trying.  dcd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just don't quite understand what TM is trying to accomplish with that refresh limit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Plus, they were getting hammered by people refreshing. Like I said, I got that screen 5 times before I got my tix. Either way, enjoy the show!  dcd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mikeyk52 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Got tickets this morning for the now Sold Out show! Ended up in row E of the Dance Circle, not too shabby. Can't wait!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flying Rabbit Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 If you got shot down for tix try calling the actual venue a few weeks before the show. Sometimes seats are reserved for patrons and season ticket holders. They have the option of keeping them before the venue releases the tickets. It happens a lot with venues like this. Not saying its a definite, but its worth a try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
