how do you get backstage passes in memphis?

Get a job with the local 69. That's the Memphis stagehand union. I work backstage and rarely get to see any of the performers. :-&

Then who's the vice president? Jerry Lewis?

thanks I tried Charity Buzz. Nothing on there but appreciate the advice as for the rest of you, you all need to get a life.

It's just generally known that they are pretty private people and shy away from the meet and greets

Thanks Betsy.I will go out today and try to find one.But I'm having to much fun waxing poetic about 1985 movies.Since you will have to watch the show from out front with the rest of us lifeless slugs may I suggest lightening up a smidge and realize we are all having a little fun.So for you I give you this classic from Weird Science.

Lisa: You know, there's going to be sex, drugs, rock-n-roll... chips, dips, chains, whips... You know, your basic high school orgy type of thing. I mean, uh, I'm not talking candlewax on the nipples, or witchcraft or anything like that, no, no, no. Just a couple of hundred kids running around in their underwear, acting like complete animals.

The band is super protective about all access passes. Even if you are able to score a pass, it most likely wont get you direct access to the band. They have a few different levels of passes not all of them get you near the stage or the band. An all access pass most likely needs to come directly from the band or Curtis management.

I can't believe how many tickets are left for Memphis. It might be easy to get backstage passes

Step 1. Pick up an instrument
Step 2. Start a band
Step 3. Play a concert in Memphis
Step 4. Because of step 3, you will have a backstage pass

Yikes...so did anyone notice it was OPs 4th post? Some helpful stuff in here, but I hope she decides to keep posting, wouldn't call some of these comments welcoming.

OP, I clicked your post out of curiosity to see if there was anything I was missing. Don't know if you are new to the boards or just don't post very much (like me). As with anywhere else, there are some who'd rather be heard and be a smart ass than to just be quiet if they can't be helpful.

Hope the show rocks, I'll be there too!

. You HOPE the show rocks. The show will rock you. Satisfaction Guaranteed! Whoa!!!

I was afraid it would be a slow selling show. Nashville would have been a better show and sold out faster I think.

i don't have an opinion on backstage passes. that said, it's a tuesday night... i'm surprised its not sold out too, but not many people traveling in the middle of the week perhaps? or locals not willing to go to a concert on a week night? a shame to say, but maybe this kinda thing is why PJ doesn't play the south more often...

Hey guys, enough with all the negativity towards the South. We all know that turnout for a PJ show in the South will never be like it is in NYC, Boston, Philly or Chicago. But that's ok. Why don't you guys buy a ticket, and come on down for the show. Ribs, Beale St., PJ, and then more Beale St. It's gonna be a fuckin' blast. Dare I say, you might just enjoy yourselves.

oh no, no negativity towards the south at all. i call it home. my post wasn't meant to compare our shows to NYC, or anywhere else. i've been to a few of their all time great shows. each in the south. i look forward to Memphis. so much, in fact, that i think Memphis could be the sleeper this fall... i DEFINITELY look forward to enjoying myself B-)

If you have a feeble public access cable TV show worth exploiting, I know a guy who can get you backstage passes to the Alice Cooper show.
