They went on sale almost a month ago and there are still tickets available for both of Jeff's solo shows at the Vic this May. Obviously there's a big difference between a Jeff show and a Wilco show but the Vic's capacity is like one tenth of what we're talking about for this show in August.

To be fair, that's a $150 a ticket benefit show.

The vast majority of tickets are $75 each. There are a handful of VIP tix for $150 a pop.

Anyway, I grabbed 4 seats in 106 today -- 2 together and 2 other singles. Congrats to the poster who managed to snag pit tix.

Considering going to this because I'll be there but I'm already ditching my family for all of Saturday for PJ and I did just splash on Pumpkins and DMB tickets this month too

I don't mean to sound like a dick, but why would it be anything but Central time?

You don't sound like a dick...
I just wanted to make sure.
I didn't know where the person that posted the info was from.
Sometimes people translate the times to their time zones to be helpful to others that live in different time zones.

JTH

Gotcha.

Oh, and it's Pacific time....

JTH said:

I always try to include a time zone after the time in my posts...
just to help others that might be hoping to score tickets or a poster that is going on sale as a courtesy!!

JTH

here is the XRT announcement, which includes a link to the ticket purchase page.

For those who haven't been, the lawn at Pritzker is basically a giant picnic area, so it doesn't have to be a stressful, stand all day affair if you decide to go.

I'm hoping to score lawn seats for this show...
there weren't any tickets for the lawn available yesterday!!
I had a decent pair of reserved seats in my cart during the Wilco pre-sale,
but threw them back because I want to be able to hang out with some other PJ friends on the lawn for this show!!
A nice stress free evening sounds good to me...
Hoping to score tickets today!!

JTH

I could be wrong, but I think the presales are for pit/reserved only.

I've done presales before at Pritzker and lawn is included. They definitely want to sell those lawns ASAP. Like its been said, there isnt really a view from the lawn unless you're right up front. Nonetheless, this is the best venue in Chicago. I just wish they had more rock shows there!

JTH

Yep. I'm wrong.

derbydave

GOT EM!!!

buck502000

had a pair in 206 Row PP - threw em back - thick they are all gone now. Res seating that is.

JTH

there's always a chance someone's cart will time out and the tickets will be thrown back in the pool.

Got mine too!!!
had some trouble with my initial order and now it's showing pending on that card but I used my debit card and it worked perfectly.

Sorry about any confusion concerning onsale time today. I wasn’t around to reply yesterday. I copied and pasted that statement from XRT’s website, so I figured it was central time. But you did not know that, so sorry for any stress caused. Glad you sorted it out and glad people got tickets. And more tomorrow.
