Joshua Tree Tour 2017 - Rumors & General Discussion II

[Diemen]

Kindly STFU

Huh. Thought I was clear enough when you got a timeout the last time. Guess not.

 

[Diemen]

Stay classy.

Spoiler

Cunt

Pot kettle black etc.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Sorry pally, they'll be playing Bronson, Missouri.

No dice.

 

[cleazer]

Almost ticket time.
Who's going for what today?

Don't you hate it when multiple shows are going on sale at the same time and you're trying to get tickets for all of them?

 

[Y2K]

New Orleans is a go! Just announced for JT30:

U2 to bring 'The Joshua Tree' 30th anniversary tour to the Superdome in New Orleans | Keith Spera | theadvocate.com

 

[cleazer]

Yeah, I just saw that when I logged onto ticketmaster.

Thursday September 14, New Orleans. (Mercedes Benz Superdome of course.)

Presale starts tomorrow at 10am central.

 

[cleazer]

Worth mentioning that Sep 14 was in fact the rumored date for New Orleans from last weekend, so there may yet be a bit of hope for the other one on the rumored list, Sep 18 in Atlanta.

I think the Falcons hosting the Packers Sept 17 at 8:30 PM might put a damper on that one, at least in the new stadium.

 

[cleazer]

ah, didn't know that, they may have to wait until E+I then

 

[lazarus]

Still putting my money on New Orleans for the official video shoot.

What other city on the NA itinerary has global distinction? They already did Popmart in Mexico City.

 

[Hewson]

They possibly could play Bobby Dodd on 9/18 as Tech plays there on 9/9 then not again till 9/23.

 

[Y2K]

Did we ever have "confirmation" on which venue in Atlanta was booked? There are multiple stadiums they could play at.

 

[Babydoll]

You're close:

Vancouver
Los Angeles
Kansas City
Joplin x2
Independence
St Louis
Jefferson City
Branson
Chesterfield
Florissant
Moberly
Nixa
Webb City
Chicago
New York

Can I hold my breath that Dan will be doing one show in Europe?

 

[jrcjohnny99]

Indy & STL GA tix were very easy this morning....

 

[cleazer]

Yep, got GA's for Detroit, Indy, and St Louis. Yay.

 

[Hewson]

Looks like Beefalo is not CC entry for GA.

 

[jrcjohnny99]

Yep, got GA's for Detroit, Indy, and St Louis. Yay.

I keep looking at Detroit but right now I'd be at 6 shows for the tour and have a feeling adding another (weekend!) trip may leave me divorced....thank god Bruce isn't touring this year...

 

[nbelcik]

Detroit is a hard ticket for GA

 

[jrcjohnny99]

Detroit is a hard ticket for GA

it is? crap.
I may be forced to buy one

 

[Hewson]

40 minutes in and you can still pull 6 GA in Indy, Buffalo and St Louis.

Indy and Buffalo are 1h 40 in!
I'd imagine KC to be similarly soft

 

[Hewson]

Yeah I just was coming back to edit that fact in.
Knew Buffalo would be soft, thought the weekend dates would help Indy and especially St Louis.

 

[jrcjohnny99]

KC date is hurting STL, probably should have just picked one of those markets and maybe done PHX, Charlotte or Baltimore instead

Plenty of tix left for Detroit as well; just pulled 4 GA's

 

[daygloeyes2]

I'm still pulling up GA's for Buffalo.

Also, Ticketmaster is showing a New Orleans date with a presale beginning tomorrow, general sale on Friday.

Joshua Tree Tour 2017 - Rumors & General Discussion II

I see theres none of them fancy maps on these dates. The one we're you can pick your seats. So we aren't really gonna know how ticket sales have done till gig night

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

The Baffling Itinerary World Tour rolls on, as expected

 

[cleazer]

maps will probably show up later

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

Yea I'm fairly certain they put the generic section only maps out first, then add the choose your seat option next.

It's harder to tell just how close some of the douchebag seats are from the discount seats when all you have is a section/row number and a price.

 

[Hewson]

Yea I'm fairly certain they put the generic section only maps out first, then add the choose your seat option next.

.

Buffalo map is up and running now.
8,302 unsold reserved seats plus an undisclosed amount of unsold GA tix.
Woof.

Folks avoiding the $290 seats(of which there were very few in Buffalo) like the plague.

 

[weinerdog]

It's so unbelievably lame how Ticketmaster only puts up the $35 seats long after many users have given up and spent a ton more money on $100-$165 seats that are marginally better(if at all in some cases).
