Radiohead – A Moon Shaped Pool

[joyfulgirl]

So I need to try for SB and/or Portland on Thursday and/or Friday, and U2 Chicago-2 on Monday. No, I'm not at all anxious.

 

[martha]

Pfffft. Piece of cake.

You're right, I didn't realize they had only been to NYC (and Canada).

And it was only, what, two New York shows? That's, uh, less than affordable on the re-sell market.

Yeah, I didn't go, but I looked at Stubhub, GAs for those shows were $1000 per.

How do the WASTE presales work? I signed up yesterday. Should I expect an email with info, or do I just log into the site tomorrow and look for instructions orrrrrrrr .... ?

I'm loving life in Denver, but it sure makes it hard to hit bigger shows. Unless a band is doing a complete tour, they hardly ever stop here.

I think I ended up paying like $200 to sit in the chase bridges, which is as nosebleed as it gets. Still worth it though.

 

[corianderstem]

Has anyone seen ticket price ranges yet?

Santa Barbara is $74.50-$104.50.

 

[corianderstem]

Thanks. Ticketmaster app didn't show the price ranges, but the website did. (I know people swear by the app for ticket buying, but I'm not impressed.)

65-95 for Seattle, although of course that's w/o fees.

 

[martha]

I couldn't even get the mobile site to come through for me on my phone for U2. I had to use my almost up-to-date work laptop.

 

[corianderstem]

Thoroughly unimpressed with the Waste site. Hard to navigate, could not find the presale information until 10 minutes after the sale started (kind of my fault, I just assumed it would be a 10:00 thing or at the very least a "local time" thing like all normal sales for any other show I've ever attended).

 

[Danny Boy]

Dear Radiohead,

Fuck your broke ass ticketing system.

 

[corianderstem]

Ugh, fuck their site. How annoying. Will try tomorrow.

 

[joyfulgirl]

Seriously. I've been in a virtual queue since the minute the sale started. It's an arena, seems odd that no tickets are being offered, so I feel like it has to be RH's ticketing system.

cori, the website is ridiculous but mailing list subscribers were sent a link to the useless presale page.

 

[Danny Boy]

Same here.

 

[corianderstem]

I never got an email. Whomp whomp. Maybe I signed up too late (yesterday).

 

[gump]

Sorry folks. There's nothing worse than a Radiohead ticket buying experience.

 

[joyfulgirl]

I got the email on Tuesday.

Yeah, I haven't had a lot of good RH presale experiences. Feeling hopeful that the only good thing that could happen on the otherwise unspeakably dreadful tomorrow might be getting RH tickets.

 

[martha]

Good to know it was the ticket system and not me. At least the two shows I'm trying for tomorrow go on sale at different times.

Eh, it's a free membership for early access, so I wasn't expecting the moon. I'm mostly annoyed at the website and how hard it is to figure out where anything is.

I've got about an .800-.850 batting average on w.a.s.t.e. presales historically, but I struck out today for Miami and am .333 since they put the waiting room system in last year. I want a single seat anyway so I should be able to score something tomorrow. <knocks wood>

 

[Pop Artist]

In for Miami with a decent seat - far easier and more stress-free today with TM than it was with w.a.s.t.e.

 

[Danny Boy]

Striking out again in Seattle.

Logged in to TM 20 minutes early, but just getting "sit tight."

 

[martha]

Holy fucking shit. I'm going to Portland with a really good seat.

I swear I almost lost consciousness when I finished buying my ticket. Santa Barbara's next, but if I don't get one for that show, I'm ok.

I got nothing. It actually never occurred to me that I wouldn't get anything. I assumed I'd get a great seat, not no seat. It's so weird that it's so hard to get a ticket now and really easy back when they were hugely popular. Well, fuck it. I guess I've seen them enough. I'd actually rather see Radiohead than U2 right now but what the fuck ever.

I got nothing. Just going to stop trying at this point.

Yeah, I guess I'll try periodically to see if there's a ticket drop. I have no hope for Santa Barbara but I'll give it a shot.

 

[Danny Boy]

I signed up for the text alert. Not expecting anything, though.

I've struck out with two pre-sales and two generals in a row now.

I think Seattle is all credit card entry, so I'm very wary of buying a scalped seat.
