    Not required... just stay on guard. Judging from today, I would assume that it would go like the first two which would mean they go to the top.

    but, the setlist doesnt change


    West coast was an experiment.

    I think we'll see a lot more variation now that Ed is comfortable with his solo gigs. Not certain about this...but it's what I think.....

    I just "practiced" by trying the click on the top ticket repeated method and it worked... nice to know different strategies... I didn't buy the tickets though.

    I was 4 for 7. DC 2 didn't even come up until 2:03 p.m. Some other people I chatted with, they didn't get DC 2 until 2:15 p.m.-2:17 p.m. DC 2 sale blew. Also they should be playing Constitution Hall instead of Warner Theatre. The Box Office is corrupt.

    Me too. At least at that show you won't see a bunch of fan club members seeing multiple shows with EXTREMELY similar set list, while wearing wilco t-shirts.

    I think the point is that by you getting what is essentially the same "intimate night" 4 times, you prevent 3 other people from doing so once.

    I am only going to 2 shows and if there was only one in Toronto, I would only be gonig to one. But to each his own.

    So, by going to 2 nights in T.O., you are preventing someone from doing so once.

    Why the fuck do you need to go to four shows

    Agreed. I wish there was a limit. Does "temporarily out of stock" instead of "out of stock" mean there will be more?

    actually got dc2 tickets today - so I am a happy camper. Thanks for the advice though, I'll try it next time.

    Great strategy, except of course when the tickets show up second instead of first. Which happened on Montreal 1 and Toronto 1 for me.

    I have done all the browser stuff, cookies, refresh etc stuff and it just comes to pure luck IMHO

    Do you feel lucky.....

    imo, the best chance you have is the split second they go on sale, then all the tickets are temorarily in somebody's possession, then by clicking and clicking and getting a buy sign, i think that's when people get logged out, screw up putting in cc info, etc, thus putting the tickets back into the pool for other people to buy

    EV are Constitution Hall?? You serious? I don't think any acoustic show would be good there. He should have pissed everyone off and booked a show at the Black Cat!
