sonnyfeeling Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Yep, sold out at 3:13. I got out of the waiting room and got to the ticketing screen for about 4 minutes, but it kept saying no tickets were available. Damn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gewee Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I was in the waiting room and then ba-boom. Got one. Keep at it! Can't wait to be back at El Riv.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
watchtower41 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 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. Wilco didn't sell out either show last time they were in Chicago, neither did Jeff for that matter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Was in the waiting room too and just got through!Was in the waiting room for a while and was lucky enough to get 2, which is good because I got shut out of the Civic Opera show. Will be nice seeing them at the Riviera, again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jules Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Wilco didn't sell out either show last time they were in Chicago, neither did Jeff for that matter.That is because they played 2 shows in a 9,000 seat venue. And Jeff's was a benefit, costing a bit more money than a normal concert. Between the Civic Opera house and the Riviera we're talking about 6,000 total. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Degenerex Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Wilco didn't sell out either show last time they were in Chicago, neither did Jeff for that matter. Then I guess it just took The Whole Love to put them over the top with their Chicago fan base. Either that or scalpers are going to lose a lot of money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Milwaukay--->Civic Opera Haus--->Riv. BONG! That is because they played 2 shows in a 9,000 seat venue. And Jeff's was a benefit, costing a bit more money than a normal concert. Between the Civic Opera house and the Riviera we're talking about 6,000 total. I hear ya, but technically, they were in Chicago Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chris_H_2 Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 So yeah, I just pulled up 2 tickets. Weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Autumnteeth Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Wonder how many frontgate had access to. Keep getting shut out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Autumnteeth Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I've been here 18 minutes. You can come up here and do a "chat and cut" if you'd like. I'm the guy in the yellow hat. I felt like I was on my daughter's Club Penguin account. Was depressing. Everytime I tried to chat with someone they would ignore me. And I got shut out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalafej Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 so...etix sucks.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
toejam07 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 (edited) As does XRT, since their promised presale link never materialized, and the etix page only had a space for the JamMail password. (Of course, I find on Jam's Twitter after they sell out that the Jam password was the same as XRT's minus a certain three letters. Oh, well…) [Edit:] Never mind, it opened back up. I managed to nab my one ticket. I haven't decided yet if I'll go to both Chicago shows, but this would be my preferred one if I do decide to go to only one, and I'll gladly sell my ticket to the Civic Opera House show at cost to one of you all. I'll post it in the appropriate forum after I get that ticket in the mail and make up my mind. Edited September 30, 2011 by toejam07 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
