chrisber63 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I bid a little more than that, and I haven't heard anything yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I got an email from them today, but I already knew I had the ticket since it was the member presale. Hope everyone who wanted in got in. Also I really hope the museum did well with this auction idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Inside of Outside Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Nope, but I booked a room for next June...Me three. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sweet Melinda Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I bid a little more than that, and I haven't heard anything yet. Did you get the email confirmation that they received your bid? Check your junk folder maybe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chrisber63 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Yes, I got that last Friday. But I haven't heard that I got tickets, though my bid was a little higher than the $103.63 bid that won above. I assume that I got tickets, but I'd like to get that confirmation.

alexinwonderland Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I got mine today. I also have tickets to the Newport show. Going to be quite a week. My last Wilco was at the Ryman both nights in the fall with Nick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joe G MSU Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I was pleasantly surprised to be a high bidder! This should be fun. I haven't checked on hotels yet, but I can't see that being too big of a problem. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
linclink Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I bid a little more than that, and I haven't heard anything yet.I really hope it works out for you!!!When I found out that they were taking a certain amount of lower bids & only so many tickets (1000-# of pre-sales), I decided to take the chance out of it & ponied up for a membership & pre-sale ticket (especially since both are tax deductible & it's a great cause) ...An Bass player friend & his wife are members & are going (as well as meeting me in Cooperstown too) & I also justified it by figuring this would lead me to go to Hartford as well (in for a penny, in for a pound)....and it did.I know a few folks who are waiting it out with the auction...the tricky part is that it is a lottery & higher bids can still lose out...I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!!

knotgreen Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 wasn't a high bidder, but won a ticket via the lottery. i'm pretty stoked! that should be a great space for them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bosco Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 wasn't a high bidder, but won a ticket via the lottery. i'm pretty stoked! that should be a great space for them. Did they specify that you won on lottery? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
knotgreen Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Did they specify that you won on lottery? yep: "Congrats! While your bid was not among the high bidders, your bid was selected in our Wilco ticket lottery, which enables you to purchase the number of tickets you requested to MASS MoCA’s benefit concert by Wilco..."

Sweet Melinda Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Ok that covers everything. People have received emails 1) yay high bidder or 2) yay lottery winner or 3) sorry neither high bidder nor chosen in lottery. If you didn't get an email their system screwed up somehow. Or it's lost in one of your folders. Give them a call tomorrow to straighten it out. Don't worry, it'll all be fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A heart I know by heart Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 got mine too for 125! Newport, Essex Junction and North Adams all in one week... going to be a great stretch.... can't wait Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chrisber63 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I guess I'll call tomorrow. I'm going to assume that the email is floating somewhere in cyberspace. I bid $117 per ticket, so it sounds like I should be in as a high bidder. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chrisber63 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Just as I typed the last message, the email showed up saying that I was a high bidder. Crisis narrowly averted. I'll be at Newport, N. Adams, and Hartford with my daughter. So excited. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

park Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 They way the odds worked out on the lottery is so odd to me. Everyone I know who bid, won. I wish Megabucks was more like that. Who's willing to guess how many bids overall? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
