Boston, March 11...location/tickets?

[powerhour24]

Its apparently 100 people, when this had the markers of being like the Astoria show for ATYCLB or even Irving Plaza, I got exciting thinking it might be somewhat possible, but then I heard the actual number. It makes the prospect so much cooler, but the odds so much longer.

I'm going to go catch up on some TV shows before the 4:15, 4:40 and 5 blitz.

I'm pretty sure its just for the Patriots, it isn't a regular line, but they might do it for concerts, my neighbors are managers for the Commuter rail, I'll ask them.

My father works for the commuter rail, asking him wont get me much info as he works north of boston. Getting to north station/the garden is never a problem for me

I know they did the train to Foxboro for Springsteen in 2003 but they did not do it for his show last August. So it may be that they stopped doing it for concerts. The reason given last August for the Bruce show was it cost the MBTA too much money to run the train for concerts.

If we are all going to buy single seats, let's plan to carpool!

 

[powerhour24]

Haha, no offense but I hate the commuter rail and avoid it at all costs, and go out of my way to volunteer to drive people places so they won't have to be subjected to it. That Foxboro line is the worst in terms of being good for the MBTA, my dad and have gone multiple times and people haven't even collected money.

If we end up with GA tickets, I think the train would be useless.

Lets rent this bus

 

[powerhour24]

That would certainly be a trip... not a safe one though.

Is there a kind soul out there willing to let me know what the heck is going on? Or at least, which stations it is that are giving away tickets? I've been skimming through the 22 pages of posts... but I'm never going to be able to read all these.

 

[alison0313]

Wayne from Norwood won.

Where are we going now? lol so much for my schedule

 

[locomosquito]

THIS is lame. they should have a big massive quiz show so that the hardcore fans will actually get in!

FNX
BCN
BOS
ZLX
AAF
Mix 98.5

no, not me. I wish, good connection attempt though.

what station was that on, 98.5?? I cant handle listening to that without time frames, even for these tix. thats why Im 'buying' as many raffles as I can for that station.

 

[Derek]

Mix 98.5 has been around :40 past the hour every time.

 

[Angtre01]

Ok next station up?

Good luck. I'm not having any.

 

[GretzkyU2Yanks]

those are the times I have also

FNX is done tomorrow morning (8:50) according to their website. The other stations go through Thurs.
and BOS announces each morning the song and time frame at 6 AM. access to song and time only to radio head members, but anybody can call in if they hear the song.

 

[alison0313]

sorry I missed the FNX times on my chart. I didn't realize they were involved too

 

[Angtre01]

If someone can post the BCN song or FNX trivia that would be great
