  • Shut out again from Wrigley. So if anyone comes across 2-4 tickets let me know! (Just trying to avoid stubhub/Craigslist).
    The mountains are calling and I must go.

    Damn! It took me 21 minutes to get out of the virtual waiting room. And of course, nothing there by then. I also clicked on the buy tickets 1 minute or so before 10:00 a.m. and was let in. Did they start early?

    I was going to get tickets for my brother's 30th birthday since its 3 days after his birthday and wasn't even able to pull a single 15 minutes after the tickets went on sale. I hate tickets.com!!!!

    It would let you in prior to the 10am Central time, but you couldn't buy tickets.

    I hopped on around 10:00am and got right in (no virtual waiting room). I was quite surprised given what a C.F. last Friday was on the cubs website. In hindsight I should have got more than the 2 seats I needed (not to make a profit but to help out some other local fans who got snubbed in both online sales).

    Very lucky to have scored 2 in 112 in the presale. Never been to Chicago before and really f'n excited!!

    Sonic Highways has been absolutely amazing so far, too. Blown away by the series and loving the new songs. Love the quality you can always expect from the Foos!

    Do the Foo's typically have ticket pre sales? Fan club?

    They do have presales, but you just have to sign up for the email alert. The password is usually readily available, so usually the amount of people trying for tickets is high. Seats aren't as choice as Pearl Jam either.

    Going through other bands presales make you appreciate the tenclub even more. The lottery is actually nice compared to the wrigley sale last friday

    Thanks for the advice. I signed up, but I haven't received anything yet.

    Where you get presale? Is there a mailing list thing?

    I am already on some list cuz I pre-ordered the Vinyl but I tend to ignore that email. I actually found today a download code and link they sent me a while ago that I never even saw.

    Thanks for posting. Then also saw it on Twitter. I live 125 miles from Nashville and the Ryman is my favorite venue. I am going to try for tics, but won't get my hopes up.
