ticket sale thread

[DavidMn]

Well, it seems that there is some confusion as to some of the onsale dates for Lindsey's shows and that there are some different ticketing agencies handling the sales. So I thought it would be helpful to organize this subject into one thread to make it easier for people to figure out what's going onsale when and who's handling it. So if everyone is ok with this idea, lets post all the ticketing info here to make it easier for all of us to figure out whats going on.:)

[Livia]

I like having a different thread for each city, but that's just me. :shrug: I think that makes things easier for ticket sales, Ledgie gatherings, etc.

[#1LiddyBuckFan]

Yeah, it might get hard searching through one thread about every venue.

[DavidMn]

I guess I can understand that. Oh well, not every idea works right?:)

[AmbrFireflie]

Also a few other on sale dates:
Danforth Music Hall, Toronto - 8/8/08

TIX for Toronto are already onsale! I have FL1 row A :) I came across it July 9th, on ticketmaster by accident..

[gretchen]

but it says not on sale until 7/18 on the site I just looked.:confused: OOps sorry that mustve been the presale. BUt it says in TM that its only $48 not $62. interesting

It is the HOB members presale (just sign up for a free account with the HOB and you can do the pre-sale, the password is ENERGY)...the $62 price includes all the add-ons like convenience charge, handling, etc.

It's not working for me! :( I'm signed in and can click on Secure Checkout, but that's all it will do.

Online Ticketmaster Presale: Thursday 7/17/08 - 11:00am to 11:00pm

Password: Screws

[bucklind17]

Can we assume that the Ticketmaster pre-sale password is going to be the same for all the shows? Any idea what it would be for the NYC pre-sale on Thursday?

[Erin]

The HOB Chicago pre-sale thing isn't working for me either. I wonder if they sold their allotted amount already. Or Gretchen is getting a very personnel concert. ;) Guess we'll all have to wait until Friday.

[AliP]

According to Ticketmaster, on sales begin this week:

Friday:
Moore Theatre, Seattle - 10am
Newmark Theatre, Portland - 10am





Does anyone know anything about the radio presale that starts today for the Portland show?

Or the internet presale for the Seattle show?

[Peestie]

Anyone got the password for the Anaheim presale? I signed up for their Access All Areas thing but I haven't got an email about the presale yet so I guess I'm not going to be getting one before it starts.

[The Catdancer]

Does anyone know the password for the Seattle show? Screws doesn't work for me :confused:

[Erin]

I'm just glad that I spelled personnel instead of personal. Go me. And the "pre-sale" is still not working! Grr...

[BTFLCHLD]

Anyone got the password for the Anaheim presale? I signed up for their Access All Areas thing but I haven't got an email about the presale yet so I guess I'm not going to be getting one before it starts. I am a member and haven't recd the grove email either... :(

[BTFLCHLD]

Peetsie...

I called The Grove box office...presale has been pushed back to 7/26!

[mylittledemon]

I had plans to go to the Chicago show, but from what I recall about HOB, the seating their sucks...and of COURSE, you know I'd have to be in the first row.

[Erin]

There is no seating at the HOB Chicago. Everybody on the floor stands. It's a GA show, unless you want to sit in one of the boxes.

[LOTR]

Does anyone know the password for the Seattle show? Screws doesn't work for me :confused:

The password for Seattle is RAINIER.:blob2:

[LukeA]

Portland's radio presale password is KINK.

[Betsy]

The password for Seattle is RAINIER.:blob2:

Thanks LOTR!

When Denver rolls around, and if you know the password or know of the pre-sale dale...would you keep me in mind?

Thanks, you're a pal!

[Peestie]

Peetsie...

I called The Grove box office...presale has been pushed back to 7/26!

Thanks for the info! I was hoping to get some tickets ordered this week and even though his website says the San Diego show goes on sale this Saturday it still isn't up on ticketmaster so I can see it being delayed as well.

[BTFLCHLD]

Thanks for the info! I was hoping to get some tickets ordered this week and even though his website says the San Diego show goes on sale this Saturday it still isn't up on ticketmaster so I can see it being delayed as well. After a strip search of the website, I found this info in the detailed description of the event:

On sale Saturday, July 26 at 10:00 a.m.

ewww yeah that blows.

[Pix]

I love GA shows... the scalpers can't charge you up the ass and the people that really want to be up front get there early and are first in. The "real" fans get the best spots... as it should be. ;)

[wondergirl9847]

I like them too. You are right. The die-hards stand in line (like in the good ol' days. LOL) and get up front. :)

[bucklind17]

Anyone hear of a password for NYC yet? It would be much appreciated!

[Maccafan5000]

Anyone hear of a password for NYC yet? It would be much appreciated!

I second that! If I hear I'll post that I've got it, and anyone can PM me then. Also just saw that Vegas has a presale as well, any/all info would be greatly appreciated!

:)

HOB Chicago Pre-sale is finally working! Password reminder: energy

[crylove77]

I haven't posted here in ages but I thought I'd let anyone interested know what I found out about the New York password.... which isn't much. I called ticketmaster and they have no idea what it is. At first, the rep was disputing the fact that there is a presale even thought it is on their site and he had to open up TM's website to see the presale info. So then I called the Nokia theater and they have no idea what it is either. And they said that if anyone knows, it would be ticketmaster. Maybe I'll call TM again and hopefully get another rep.:( I also emailed [email protected] and registered with AEG Live who is promoting that show, so maybe those of us who want to go to ths show will know something by tomorrow.

[Maccafan5000]

Hey guys, just found out the password for Vegas is "GIFT".

[Rumours13]

I haven't posted here in ages myself. I just wanted to let people know that there are still really great seats left at the Ridgefield Playhouse in Connnecticut. I had never been there before last month, but I have to tell you, you can't get any more intimate than that place. I was in the seventh row of a show and it was awesome. I managed to get fourth row a little bit left of the stage for Lindsey, but still a fantastic seat. I am still shaking, I just can't wait to see Lindsey that close. It's my dream come true. :blob2:

[wondergirl9847]

Got my St. Louis and Chicago GA tickets. Looks like at least 3 of these shows on my 5 stop tour will be standing in line. Heh.

[DavidMn]

Now lets get Kansas City, Cleveland, Milwaukee and Indianapolis info out there!:)

I got an email from Ticketmaster today, apropos of nothing that I can tell, so I imagine it went out to anyone who recently purchased tickets for venues in the area. The password is "gift", and they are offering a FREE copy of the album for every pair of tickets purchased (max, 4 tickets). Pretty cool.

[Chrislit18]

Northampton is evil :(
They did a presale to email suscribers, and it started at 530...when I was at Drivers Ed :distress:

But I guess I really shouldn't complain, since I'm in the 7th row...
That's not too bad :)

NOKIA: I got two not-very-good seats ORCH CC 10 and ORCH EE 2 -- on the right hand-side. Seems tickets are going fast!

[suzyvermoesen]

i got row FF orch seats 6 and 8.
i also just heard that it is GA :confused: If so, i'm not complaining because i really want to be up front :]

If you're buying a seat, it's not GA.
I've bought tickets for GA. They simply say "General Admission," and maybe give you a section.

[wondergirl9847]

I found this while looking for Brady Theater (Tulsa) tickets. It's a great seating chart! Just got my ticket. I'm on the far right side (looking from the stage), front row. :)

I think sometimes Nokia is GA, but for this show the tickets are being sold as "Reserved," which means assigned seating. I also agree that GA would be the most fun! I'm so mad I didn't get to see him at Bowery(?)

[suzyvermoesen]

How did you do that ? TM only gives these :
Orchestra Seating
US $71.50

Promenade Seating
US $56.50

Mezzanine Seating
US $46.50
no mention of GA anywhere :confused:

I have the feeling that all the good seats were reserved for Amex card holders, their presale started yesterday.And i must have hit the retry button about 25 times but the closest i got was row FF :mad:

Maybe i'll have better luck with the Keswick show :rolleyes:

You and me both. I'm thinking bout going to Cleveland. . .

[AliP]

Did anyone get tickets for Seattle for Portland today? Just wondering what kind of seats you got. I totally spaced it and didn't get on TM until eight minutes after they went on sale and the closest that came up was seventh row.

[Maccafan5000]

Well, I bought my tix for the Hard Rock show at the Joint in Vegas, very excited about that!!

But I'm getting anxious waiting for news on Cleveland. I LOVE when Lindsey comes to my hometown. I've already warned all my friends and family that are panning to attend, I'm gonna be waiting in line for as long as necessary to get up front for at least that one show :)

I'm sorry. I wrote that in a strange way.
I meant, I bought General Admission tickets before for a different venue (on ticketmaster). When you purchase those tickets, instead of the drop-down menus giving you lots of choices, they say "General Admission" very clearly. There are some places (I believe Nokia is one of them) where you could choose "floor" General Admission (which would be more expensive) or Mezzanine GA (slightly cheaper)--when the show is actually intended as a GA show. But the fact that you are actually looking for seats, with row and seat numbers, means it's totally reserved (and I'm actually glad about it. I don't like some of the hijinx involved with General Admission--but, that's me).

Don't feel bad about the Amex presale. You missed absolutely NOTHING. I was on there and it was one of the worst presales ever. The one today was MUCH better. I didn't see even one ticket that was less than 20 rows from the stage. I got on about 15 minutes after the thing started (couldn't find the blasted password), and stayed on for quite a while...but, it was crap.

[bucklind17]

I got CC 9 and 11 for Nokia. I'm actually pretty pleased. When I started, I was pulling up mostly LL and MM, and just kept trying. It is actually my first time seeing Lindsey solo (I know!), so I just want to be as close as possible. I cannot call the seventh row (I think it is, anyway) a bad seat! I do wish it was a little more center, but I doubt we are so far to the side that it will be hard to see. And I'm also hoping we are close enough that people will stand and kind of merge together!

A friend with an Amex was looking at locs yesterday and was only pulling back of Orch/Front of Promenade seats. So I don't think the locs yesterday were any better. I'm pleased with what I got. It is a great venue and should be a lot of fun!

[wondergirl9847]

I'll be waiting with you in Chicago.... What time are you going to get there to wait?

I'm not sure. I haven't booked my flight yet. I'm going to the Cleveland show too, so I'll be flying from there to Chicago.

Nokia en Keswick are the only ones we're going to. We're flying in from Belgium for 5 days only, just to see Lindsey (i know, crazy Belgians :nod: ;) )

We'll be 3 rows behind you but all the way over on the other side . I'm planning on making a banner with " Please come to Belgium Lindsey!" on it, so the crazy woman holding that will be me :p
Have you been to the Nokia before and if so; do they bodysearch you for camera's ?

just received an email from the Keswick.They added Lindsey on their event listing and tickets are already on sale.
Because TM starts sale only on wednesday 23rd, i quickly calculated what time it was over in the States and then called them to order .I ended up with 7th row (DD - seats 10 and 12).
It's not 1st row, but still better than my Nokia tickets. :nod:

Has anyone noticed that the New York show is no longer lisetd on LB's site? It wasn't on there yesterday either.:shrug: The last show is listed as Glenside, but the NY show is still on ticketmaster.

[Peestie]

I'm so nervous about getting good seats for these concerts! I'm so used to getting GA standing tickets and never having to think about things like this. I realise that whatever seats we get will probably be pretty good but it still doesn't stop me wanting front row at atleast one of the concerts I go to... Nothing I can do about whatever seats we get but I still can't help getting wound up about it lol.

[muzikdudeness]

In my google researching, I've seen a few references to the Amex password as "GIFT" for other shows, but I have not been able to find what it is for Boston's Berklee.

Anybody know for sure?

I just called them this morning and they confirmed to me that the sale starts TOMORROW the 23rd! How in the world did you get tickets before they go on sale??

I'm going to be so pissed if that guy lied to me on the phone!

I ordered tickets by phone on monday 21st of july.
Tried ordering via their website but i could not get through (the connection timed out every time) so i just picked up the phone and called them. The woman on the phone gave me a confirmation number and the row and seat numbers (7th row was the closest she had left) I'm not a Keswick Club member either but i did mention that i was calling from Belgium and that we were flying in especially for the concert, so maybe that is why she took my order, i dunno ? Maybe ticket sales through their website only starts today, but phone sales started earlier. Or maybe someone misinformed you ?


on edit: you've got me worrying now that maybe she understood me wrong and sold me tickets for some other concert. I better call back tonight and check . . .

Your research was wrong. AMEX presales and Gold Card Event general sales is always the customer service number from the back of the card minus hyphens and the leading zero. You also have to charge it to your AMEX card or the sale is no good. FYI platinum members get the best seats usually.

We can start individual threads for each show/venue that way they are easier to find. Many have already been started by Livia. If we start a pre-sale password thread, that will just become a mess too. :wavey:

On edit, let's make sure there hasn't already been a thread started for a particular show before we start a new one.

Well, my thought was a sticky with one person controlling the input of the passwords...opening and closing the thread to avoid additional/unnecessary verbiage. :shrug:

I was also figuring that as the shows came closer, people would discuss more than just password or ticket sale info. The individual threads will make it easier to discuss pre and post show.
