you might be right!

it has not been advertised or promoted in any way, and is completely under the radar so far... not even on LB's website or any of Christine's social media. so i don't know how representative it would be but i guess if this sells out immediately with basically a word of mouth they might consider larger venues or multiple dates in smaller ones (please please please pleaseplease let it still not be larger venues!! just stay intimate, do multiple dates and/or charge more).

it's odd coz on the venue's website it provides links to both of their websites, but when I checked, as you note, there was nothing on either.

I was trying to gauge how many seats would have been sold if in fact A, B and D had sold already.... each section looks to have (very roughly) 300 or so seats. If all 3 sections were sold out (which I am suspicious of) that's 900 or so seats..and with 100 still showing avail in section C, they'd have sold maybe 1100 seats or so.... which would be great if it were the case.... if they're just holding reserved seats back, which I have to assume the are, maybe they've sold ......I dunno......between say 500-800???

In the 32 Stevie Nicks / Fleetwood Mac shows I've been to, I've only gotten lucky with ONE pre-sale. Lucky meaning seats popped up in the second row. All of the other times I've had better luck with the general sales.
And don't be afraid to throw back seats they offer you in rows 10 or further back. Most times I've gotten row 5 or closer it's been after 12 attempts or so. By that time I'm sweating nervous wreck, but it usually pays off.
Good luck!

Jamie

Also, sometimes being a little farther back gives you a better sound.
Being right up on the speakers can be too much sometimes.

But, if I get up close I won't balk.

I thought that was strange too. Buck/McVie have not mentioned it or promoted it in any way (yet).

The concert has had zero promotion.

Bring on another 40 dates!!!!!!

Another date should be added at this venue. When it gets promoted and the album is released I am sure the second night would also sell out.

It's a delicacy for sure! The hidden secret. Something you can't get often, you better go see it.

Per the venue website and other sources there is a total of 4,300 seats (real seats and then space on the lawn for 'festival seating'). That's a decent number of seats, but it is far from sold out at this point. Ticketmaster is cagey so it's hard to tell how many reserved seats have been sold. They are showing 2-3 seats in every reserved section....

I'd love for them to sell this out....but unless they get off their asses and promote it more...

So far John Legend and Santana are the only ones sold out, and for two nights apiece.


I like this part: The Chateau Ste. Michelle wine shop is open before all concerts with wine and picnic items available for purchase. In addition, an array of food vendors will offer a selection of menu items for sale in the amphitheater. Concert-goers may also bring their own picnic baskets and non-alcoholic beverages. (The Washington State Liquor Cannabis Board requires that all alcoholic beverages consumed on the winery grounds be purchased at the winery.)
