You are welcome.

It was from an email I got from the club on 3/5/03.

I wonder how many people are going to get, uh, *cough-cough*, "sick" this morning and call in to work unable to make it in due to the "Fleetwood Mac Flu" virus (aka Ticket sale) that's goin' around???

Vacation day for me. Can anyone here think of a better way to spend one (well, maybe the show itself)?

well, i was told 9am pacific time so i'm waiting...i don't think they've gone onsale yet to the fanclub members. in the long run, i'll be happy just to go...i can always go to a broker. i know it's more money but that's the breaks. i'll take my luck and wait till 12pm eastern time. also, i read somewhere that you shouldn't try to get tickets before the presale starts for some obscure reason....i remember reading something about that about a week ago....anyone remember hearing anything about this?

But it was asking for you fanclub password??!!

Those poor fans. I think many of them were expecting---were possibly led to believe---that they'd be in the front row with nary a finger lifted (except to reach for their wallets, of course).

Ah, well. Life's all about learning from the bad examples of vice & folly.

Would it be poor taste to go over there and say 'I told you so?'

The SXSW Music, Film and Interactive conference is going on right now. Our hometown version of the Grammys was last night, and I always take off work in the mornings during SXSW...except today - I gotta get tickets and I'm about to close my office door and put up a sign I made yesterday that says:

"PRIVACY, PLEASE!!

ON THURSDAY, MARCH 13TH, FROM 10:55 AM UNTIL APPROXIMATELY 11:15 AM – I WILL BE ONLINE - BUYING FLEETWOOD MAC “FAN CLUB MEMBERS ONLY” TICKETS (ALONG WITH ABOUT A MILLION OTHER PEOPLE). IT’S A FEEDING FRENZY AND EVERY SECOND MAKES THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FRONT ROW OR NOSEBLEED SEATS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND PATIENCE, AS I AM TEMPORARILY INSANE DURING THIS PROCESS!!"

You know, I had no illusions for the front row. I joined the Fan Club thinking I could get better seats before they went on sale to the public. When the venue had it's presale last week, I felt uneasy but unfortunately didn't purchase the 100 level tickets that came up on Ticketmaster. Today I got through right at 12:00 EST and all I've managed to bring up are 200 level seats. NOT what I expected after shelling out 60 bucks!!!

I didn't even buy them, I'm so discouraged.

Uhhh, Okay you can panic now!

2:30 I still don't have tickets.

Enchanted58 · #26 03-13-2003, 02:02 PM

Oh my g*d, I just got first section floor, row 13!!! I have tried for almost an hour & 1/2, only receiving opportunities in the 200 section.

Anyone who is trying for tickets at Continental in NJ, try right now!!

Eileen, who is really, totally shocked at this turn of events!!

That's great Eileen!!! I noticed that some venues release the less desirable seats first then the best seats later on...Brian "Dont give up yet folks!!!" J.
