Will feel better about getting shut out of this show than the first. Love the Riviera, so when I am rebuffed by a captcha error, or a spinning processing bar, I will feel exhilerated.

 

And by the way, I know we are all in competition for the seats, but if someone would be king enough to give me the jam keyword for Friday presale I will buy your beers for the entire show.

Their strategy of adding a second show in NYC seemed to work. They kept releasing tickets close to the show date as well which drove down the price that the scalpers could charge. I saw many people offering tickets for less than face outside the venue.

I guess this means they may be aware of the inordinate amount of tickets that ended up in the hands of those with no desire to attend the show.

 

375 available on stub hub, 10% of the capacity, 5% on ebay, so if they did this is a great response. Wilco, loves you, and me, apparantly. Thanks guys.

I tried to get on the presale website for today to check out the price, and it put me in a virtual waiting room. So now you have to wait 10 minutes before tickets even go on sale. I think if Lady Gaga toured with the Jonas Brothers and 2Pac it would be easier to get tickets than a Wilco show in Chicago.
