ih8music Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Well, that was interesting. I tried to get 2 tix for the Sunday night LA show at the Largo and kept getting server errors upon checkout (after entering my CC info). So I switched dates and tried for 2 tix to the Thursday night show. More errors before checkout; server kept timing out on me. But then I got a confirmation email that I managed to purchase 2 tix to each show -- both Sunday and Thursday. And now I got another email that I got 2 tix to Sunday's show only. Oh boy. did I just get 2, 4 or 6 tickets? Looks like I'll be on the phone here... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muzzle of Dan Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 This Largo presale is BS. I've entered my CC info at least 10 times and it just keeps giving me the server time out message. Same with my girlfriend trying for another night. We had respectively put our CC info in for both the Wednesday and Thursday shows. Both of us just had the site say the server is too busy.

brightlights Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Well that was a complete let down. If only they had box office sales.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muzzle of Dan Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I can't believe how many times I've entered my info to no avail. My girlfriend got to a page that said creating your tickets for the Wednesday show, but it looks like that may have timed out as well. This is just crazy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cuz I gave them my CC info many times... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cre618 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Yep, entered my CC info about 5 times for 5 different pairs. Got nothing. Oh well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yarbles Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 That Largo fiasco was a complete clusterjam. A friend and I were both trying for 45 minutes, entering info over and over, error page after error page. Ended up having to get tickets for the Santa Barbara show.... road trip her I come.

scribex6 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Had the same problems. At one point I got to the page to fill out my payment information and it showed my shopping cart had $1,120 worth of tickets from all my attempts. Ridiculous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You could make everyone here very happy! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scribex6 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I hope you bought them all. You could make everyone here very happy! Ha! They have a two ticket limit so anything over that amount is voided anyway. I was tempted to try but tried to clear my shopping cart so I had only two tickets and just got error messages.

Muzzle of Dan Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 So, did anyone around here get tix for Largo? What a bummer of a morning. I can't believe how many times I thought I had tickets because the screen said "creating your tickets now, please wait" only to have the server time out at that point. I guess there won't be any secondhand tix since all are will call with ID required for entry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mdpoet Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Had the same problems. At one point I got to the page to fill out my payment information and it showed my shopping cart had $1,120 worth of tickets from all my attempts. Ridiculous.The same thing happened to me. My cart was up to $2,500 at one point, had all nights including 32 tickets for Monday and ended up with not a one. What a debacle! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Preferred B Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The whole Largo situation made me sad. I know certain people (I'd count myself as one) who have been dreaming of seeing Jeff play music at Largo for years and years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I'm so sorry for everyones' frustrations with Largo. I was a little bit frustrated myself buying tackets for Davis and Santa Barbara, but that was nothing compared to this. There has just GOT to be a better way. I hope somebody who's on the inside with the band management can convey this experience to them. I can't believe they would really intend to create such chaos among the diehard fans.

cyco Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 The whole Largo situation made me sad. I know certain people (I'd count myself as one) who have been dreaming of seeing Jeff play music at Largo for years and years. I tried right at 10 and not a single ticket purchase went thru. I have been dreaming of seeing Jeff solo for close to a decade now. Oh well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jat2 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I can't count how many times I tried and with no luck, even after entering my payment information. Sure would like to know how people did manage to actually get tickets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So I did confirm that both transactions went through successfully... out of dumb luck I got 4 tickets for Sunday and 2 for Thursday. Lucky me. Will be contacting friends to see who can join me, but in the event that I truly have "extras" I'll post something here on VC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scribex6 Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Just got a pair of tickets to the Largo Sunday show! Looks like they had so many duplicate orders that they released more tickets. But it still took numerous tries again to get through. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
anthony Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 That Largo thing was a fucking joke. I had the same experience as everyone else: multiple people with multiple crashes. I gave up an bought Santa Barbara. Tough drive, but a least I got tix for a solo show. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
M. (hristine Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Tweedy is playing my town and I might not go and I might just be ok with that. Tickets showed up on StubHub 15 minutes after they went on sale. $300 bucks for good seats. This process is badly broken. I'm out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

anthony Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 It is sad when actual fans who are dedicated enough to post on a fucking Wilco message board cannot get tickets in their hometown. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Muzzle of Dan Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Pretty shady that Largo released the 2nd batch of tickets at a higher price. I went on and it was saying Sudnay night was now available, but then I went through all the checkout stuff to find out that it was really sold out even though it tried to sell me tickets. That place and their website is f'd in the a. I'm calling Santa Barabara on Monday morning to see if I can get any floor tickets for that venue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Peanut969 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Just now I was able to purchase tix for the 12/18 show. Everything seems ok. My card went through and I got an order confirmation #. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Holy crap, thanks for posting that!!!! Looks like 12/15 is available too. GO get them! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
