Sorry if this has already been covered in a previous post. But does anyone know what the deal is with the pre-sale for west coast dates tomorrow? Is it through ticketmaster? radiohead site? do you need a code? Any info would be great, thanks.

    go through radiohead's site to get to the W.A.S.T.E. site, they will flip the switch at some random time and the tickets will sell out within the hour. You don't need any sort of code or pre-registration.

    You can take your chances by going to sleep tonight, there's no telling what time they will go on sale.

    I slept with the notion that they'd be good to their fans and wait until a decent hour to put em up. It paid off. Now I am at work where I am on a computer for the next eight hours -- I am good to go!! Thank you Radiohead for letting me sleep!

    Yea, I had my laptop next to my bed and every time I woke up I checked the ticket site. I was freaking out on my 45 min drive to work 'cause I didn't have a computer with me and couldn't check the site! Pathetic, I know. But I scored a great seat for Bristow, Va and sold it (face value for Karma) because the show is on Mother's day and I didn't feel right about abandoning my family that day - here's hoping Karma is gonna return the favor so I can get Camden tix!
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    Hodge, I feel for you and everyone else who has stayed up all night (I've been lurking on the RH talkboard and there are a lot of people who did) - just curious, is there any rhyme or reason to not announcing sale times? If it was to prevent scalping, as some have suggested, why wait this long? Wouldn't it make more sense to sell the tix in the middle of the night to give diehard fans a better chance at them? I guess I don't understand the reason for being so secretive about ticket times... any insight? And does it piss you off that you've waited all night and still nothing?

    I've been up all night waiting and it's been agonizing. I have been watching the Flyers 5 overtime game from 2000. I wish they would put the fucking tickets up. I really don't know their motivation behind doing it this way.

    This from a post on At Ease:


    Just called w.a.s.t.e. Spoke with Kate.
    She was very British and very lovely.

    Me: "Hello, I was just wondering when the pre-sale tickets will be released for the North American tour"
    Kate: "Sorry, bit of a waiting game."
    Me: "AHHHhh but there's thousands of us and I'm so tired, we've been up all night."
    Kate: "haha sorry, I just can't reveal that information"
    Me: "Ok, I have another question, for the Hollywood Bowl, will there be two separate options for pit and reserved seating, or will there just be one ticket to purchase and you find out your seating later?"
    ....had to repeat the question a few times before she could understand, our accents made the conversation a little difficult.....
    Kate: "Let me find out for you.."
    *Puts me on hold for about a minute, can hear her speaking to a man in the backgroud.*
    Kate: "You there?"
    Me: "Yes"
    Kate: "I'm sorry, I just can't reveal that information."
    Me: "ok, one more question, I have a business meeting in three hours, if I attend it, will I miss out on tickets?"
    Kate: *pauses for a moment* "haha, tricky, I just don't have that kind of information, just got to wait"
    Me: "Thanks."

    it's funny when things change so much, it's all state of mind...

    God, I hope so. I can't take much more of this waiting. Of course, this all had to happen on a day when I'm already pressed for time.

    I think I'd rather have seats for Camden, though I've never been in the Pit. What are you hoping to get?
