    I was hoping there'd be some info at thewho.com but people there are asking the same questions.

    Wtf does that mean? There will no tickets available come Tuesday??
    Thats not what it means.
    Presales are always an allotment. Usually a small percentage.
    Not 100% of the venue.
    But regardless the lower priced tickets will be gone by 10:00:10 a.m. cst

    Man, I hope you guys have a fair shot. Sounds like it'll be a hell of a show.

    As to the post with the photo of Ed, I hope it was poking fun at his holding money (the nerve!) vs his appearance. Really hope not the latter.
  • I have my fingers crossed for a Blu-ray/DVD release of this show! I have been a big Who fan for years now, and it would be a dream come true to see Eddie do an entire show with Pete. The proceeds from the sale of the Blu-ray/DVD could go to the charity, so it's a win win situation for everyone! :)

    No luck here. I'm guessing that the friends and family code was probably for folks who work/volunteer/donate to Teen Cancer America.

    You can see the available seats on the map for the F&F presale. There aren't that many--I mean that there are just a few choices, not that they're all gone.
    Sample prices: 103 B, 102 G/H and 109 Q $1000, 109 R $750, 107 AA $500, 206 S $250. Don't see $100 seats, must be back upper corners.

    No way in hell. The Maryville shows they did back in the day raised thousands, plus proceeds from the CD went to the charity. fivehorizons.com/archive/articles/usatoday100899.shtml
