Winston Legthigh Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 are the balcony seats any good if you're in the back?If the choice is between balcony seats in the back and not going, then, yes, balcony seats in the back are good. It's a small theater. some seats are better than others, but I don't think any of them are "bad" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pmantz Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I am looking for two tickets for the April 15th show at the Pabst. I was able to score two the 14th and only one for the 15th. To prevent any marital discord between my wife and I trying to figure out who gets to go, can someone help me out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hello_Operator Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I got Pabst tickets, April 14, section 2RC Row F 1-4. Not bad. I'm pretty pumped. Have you all received your confirmation emails yet? I couldn't print off the page because my computer wasn't hooked up to print. I always get nervous when I don't have the confirmation. But it was taken out of my checking account already...189 bones. They really kill you with those service fees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
virtualreason Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Well, what I'm curious about: the theater doesn't know what seats are being sold. As in, if someone posts on E-bay that he is selling a second row ticket, no seat number included, how does the venue know which ticket to void? They cannot just kill that entire row's tickets. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pmantz Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I am from milwaukee and get emails from the pabst selling confiscated tickets. I think its refreshing I can't explain how frustrating it is to fight to get tickets, and not get them and then find leaches/scalpers selling the tickets 5 minutes after the show sells out. Thank you Pabst. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you Pabst.yeah it's nice. And, for out of state sales, they hold the tickets at will call and will only allow the purchaser to pick them up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Via Harvard Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Very refreshing, I wish more venues would do this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I about soiled myself when I found out they were going to be at the pabst, its a wonderful venue the accostics are phenomenal. How could you trade an experience like that for money.

virtualreason Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 It certainly isn't easy, and we'll never get EVERY scalped ticket. We do hold out of state purchase for will-call purchase. As for other ways, it's probably best we just let you know we try our best and not divulge any methods/ways/etc. Ah! I just thought of an easy way to do it (since, in my eyes, the vast majority of the population is not smart enough to do illegal[ish] things). Best of luck nabbing those crazy pricks that want $500+ for these tickets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Preferred B Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Oh God. As much as I'd love to see another show at the Pabst, the three separate onsales this week just about killed me with stress. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beltmann Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I was teaching during the sales, so I begged my sister to go online for me. I wanted two tickets for each night, and today she actually managed to get them--but they are not together. I'm thrilled to have tickets, but a little bummed that my wife has to sit in a different section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

euthe Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 the bar is outside of the room CURSES!!! (for me) But that's one complaint I had at the residency shows - noise from the bar - so in a more acoustically minded reply SWEET!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lamradio Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Got my Music Today tickets for the Asheville show. I've heard bad things about people not getting their tickets in time from MT, so it was a sigh of relief.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
