mkaycomputer Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 wait... why are tickets 45 dollars and the show is 21+? did i miss something about like becoming an asshole to fans or something? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jsarnerphoto Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 The first thing I went to do when I woke up this morning was go to set calendar alerts for the pre-sales - but now all mention of the shows are gone from wilcoworld.net (save for a scrolling news item that takes you nowhere).Did anyone make a note of the days/times for the pre-sales? I'm pretty sure the Bowery show was 10/27 (and I'm guessing 10:00 am). Thanks. UPDATE:I found the pre-sale dates (thanks to babystew.com) - anyone remember the times? Sat., 12/4: New York, NY (Bowery Ballroom)Two ticket limit; pre-sale starts Wed. 10/27 via Front Gate Tickets; regular onsale Fri. 10/29 Mon., 12/6: Tarrytown, NY (Music Hall)Pre-sale starts Mon. 10/25 via Front Gate Tickets; regular onsale Fri. 10/29 Wed., 12/8: Charlottesville, VA (Paramount Theater)Pre-sale starts Wed. 10/27 via Front Gate Tickets; regular onsale Fri. 10/29 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just sign up for e-mails at http://www.frontgatetickets.com/ or what?I think you need to sign up at Jeff's section of Frontgate Tickets. There isn't a link to it right at the moment, but I'm sure Wilcoworld will update the page and we will be given a proper link, so stay tuned. This is Wilco's link: I don't know what Jeff's is. http://wilco.frontgatetickets.com/signup.php wait... why are tickets 45 dollars and the show is 21+? did i miss something about like becoming an asshole to fans or something?How much longer until you're 21?

Shakespeare In The Alley Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Charlottesville's all ages, and tickets are $35. Since I don't think Jeff would go out of his way to screw just a small slice of his fanbase, I'd say it wasn't his fault. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shakespeare In The Alley Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I'm done listening to Wilco. I guess Jeff thinks that only his NY fans deserve an Uncle Tupelo reunion. What a jerk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jeff has let me down thats rich- rofl i agree $45 for a small venue is a fair price. I am always willing to pay more for a small intimate show rather then a large arena or shed. Hell average in the Dallas area for any indy act in a night club is $35 anyway. Pay the price and just don't buy any concessions if you gotta stay under 50 bucks!

Smokestack Joe Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 i respect the kid's opinion and i respect your choice to blast it. Once Wilco got publicity over the record/label dispute when YHF, I knew I wasnt going to be paying 20 dollars anymore to see Wilco or Jeff live. Obviously as the band evolves and becomes more successful ie gaining fans, musical praise,etc...bigger venues, more shows, bigger crew, more buses, more money for tickets. even for solo shows, it just isnt jeff driving his own van with a few acoustics in the back, ha. 45 dollars for a show is expected. Id love to see Dylan-Young but tickets starting at 65-80, that is tough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
