I think tickets are going to be hard to get for this?

Just an FYI...

I got on line at 12:30, more than two hours after the presale started (you had to have a password, but all you had to do to get the password was to be on Stevie's FB page, or know someone who is) and I got 1 ticket for row 5, section 1, which is smack dab in the center in the 5th row. I think because the ticket prices were sooooo steep, the demand wasn't so great. I"m not sure if I'll go or not, but I'm sure that I"ll be able to find a buyer if I need to, so at least this way I have the option. Anyone else going???

Should we do a Stevie pre-show meet up? I know a great South Indian restaurant about 25 minutes from the venue where it would be easy to get a table and the food is super yummy and super cheap. The restaurants that I've tried in downtown Saratoga (it's a little town with a very small downtown) are not so great and very overpriced.

I'll be in Texas from the 9th-21st October. I'm hoping that a date there may be included in these new October dates. That will be the only chance I'd get to see the In Your Dreams tour since the promised European/UK dates didn't happen. Fingers (doubtfully) crossed!

Saturday will most likely sell out faster than Sunday; you just need to keep refreshing the page every few seconds before the tickets go on sale. I know this isn't anything new to most people here.

Yes, that was somewhere between 3 & 10 minutes.

I love that she is doing this. These are the kind of venues she should be playing now.

These are the exact reasons she could have done UK/European dates at places like the Carling Academy, Shepherds Bush Empire, The Lowry, Usher Hall.. like Lindsey is doing. Smaller venues - somewhere where she has a small (but not as small as she seems to think) yet devoted fanbase who are desperate for shows and would sell out every one... I had thought that she just didn't want to play smaller venues and so that's why she only ever played US and Australasia but this shows that that isn't the reason. Oh well...

I know I should have checked into it sooner, but the presale password for Saratoga is: DREAMS

I get that it must be more fun playing these small places, but the fact remains that she is not making her usual payday. The Fillmore is about half the size of the Wiltern! But then again, this is not the first time she's done this sort of thing before- she has played the House of Blues and the Whiskey-a-Go-Go (which were both radio broadcasts). But I'm shocked that she is doing so many of these small shows. Again, I love the fact that she is doing these shows. But it's obvious that she doesn't need to. This is why I suspect there are some tricks up her gossamer wizard sleeves.

Dave's influence?

First he makes her sit in the same room as him to write a song together, THEN he records her during the making of the album with a home video camera, THEN he gets her to ride a tour bus again. Next thing you know, she'll be waitressing part time again.

These shows sound cool. Hope you all have a blast!

Do we need a password for the tickets at the Fillmore this Friday? Its not a pre-sale is it?

PastelGravel · #88 09-07-2011, 10:21 PM

I don't think we'll make it to these

I have a work thing that will be coming up right around then that I can't miss. Sucks so bad. I have to just be happy I got to see her 4 times this year. I wanted to see all my Ledgie buddies again so soon.

StandbackStevie · #89 09-08-2011, 03:46 AM

No, you won't need a password for the tickets that go on sale Friday. You only need a password for the Mountain Winery pre-sale, which I believe ends Thursday, Sept 8 at 9 PM. PST. Good luck
