Those prices were pretty ridiculous. There’s no way they sell even half of those. I’m gonna wait til closer to the show and grab some off stub hub, I’m sure they’re will be thousands available. 

The price of these tix is crazy. Sadly I think people will pay these crazy prices. Great double bill but not paying $400 to be in the first 10 rows. My 5th row floor centre floor tix for The Who were cheaper than these!

  

$400 for ANYONE seems crazy to me.

i think it was $500 in philly

These ticket prices are just unreal...
and it looks like a lot of folks agree!!
This is what's left on the front section of the floor for the show in Columbus after the TM Verified Fan presale, CitiBank presale, Nationwide Arena presale, local radio station presale & the first day of general ticket sales.



There are whole sections in the upper bowl & club level that are barely touched too!

Yeah seems like they set the prices way too high for this tour.  There are a lot of seats left for the Chicago show...and it's a Friday night show too!  Last time they were here they played 2 shows at the united center but this time looks like they'll have trouble selling out 1 show.  Will definitely wait until the show gets closer to score some decent priced tickets.

Was surprised the first show in DC sold out and they added a 2nd. I guess the Anthem is the smallest venue they are playing though. And it is a Saturday night. 2nd show is on a Wednesday, will see how that does.

New album officially announced and another new song out...I like this one too.

dudes are unimaginative - especially when it comes to the guitars

ComeToTX

Yeah, both tunes bore me.

I agree, every album is practically identical.

I'm liking the new songs

Digging these two new songs.... Just pre-ordered the "Pink" limited vinyl.

I dig me some Black Keys.  I don't listen to them as much as I did 10 years ago.  Love the Thickfreakness, Rubber Factory era.

Same here, I thought they would have started shipping yesterday.  I think they will send a download link on Friday in case.

Better than nothing, but I want that pink vinyl

I just got the email with the tracking. The vinyl won't arrive until Monday. Fantastic.

Same here. Thought I was going to luck out since they’re on Warner which is based in LA and stuff I’ve pre-ordered from them in the past has basically just been shipped across town but it looks like this one is originating from Indianapolis.

You can get an early listen now through their newly announced fan club. I tried that but it seemed like the songs were cut short on my phone.

Mine hasn't even shipped yet.  This definitely falls under "first world problems" but it drives me nuts when pre-order vinyl always arrive after the release date...can't remember the last time I got one on time!

Agreed. I did get an email with the download link in it, so that’s good. I’d rather have the vinyl though. 

LukinFan

Actually, it looks like it's just the two singles for download, and not the whole album. Bummer

yeah, I think they messed up. Mine was the same way. Shot them an email about it. 

ComeToTX

NM. Fixed it.

Their customer service just emailed me a new link to download the album. So if you did not get it in the email they sent today, contact them and they should send it over. 

Glorified KC

Solid album 

LukinFan

I emailed them too and recieved the new download link. Cool album, on listen number 2.

I put it on for my wife, and at the end she says, "That's it? That was short."

I looked it up and it clocks in at 39 minutes.

Glorified KC

I’m cool with the length.  For me it’s their best album since Brothers.  El Camino fizzles out after Little Black Submarines and Turn Blue is a good album, but not great.

LukinFan

Well my "pink" vinyl arrived today, but it's white, not pink. Also it has two large black scuff marks in two different spots on the first side of the album. I'm not happy. I just emailed their curstomer service. We'll see what happens.

Yeah I got mine too and it is definitely not pink.  Pretty cheap packaging on this one...not even an insert in there with the lyrics.  But it does sound pretty damn good!

Yea, I thought it was strange there was not a lyrics sheet, just done stickers. And I guess the vinyl is a very, very light pink but it’s nothing like the dark pink one in the picture on their website. Very misleading. I honestly wouldn’t be too upset but the black scuff marks on the record is annoying. The album does sound great though.
