already sold out - I tried 5 minutes ago @ 8:29 am EST a colleague had success @ 7:00 am EST, but I was in the car... alas... looks like Im waiting in line for Ticketbastard - I dont find the internet reliable when the event is as big as this...

I forgot to say 'Fuck' there - I feel better.

went to 'that ticket site' this am to survey prices - Boston is not listed, and they seem to be strategically not telling people how much the NYC Madison Sq Garden shows cost... Im sure Boston will be up sooner rather than later. A survey of some of the other venues show prices to be between high $30s to $40s with all the service mafia fees, I'm making a conservative guess of about $55 to $60 per ticket... ouch.

Is anyone buying tickets together for this? After sacrificing $64.60 (original price $51 + mafia fees...but went for the snail mail tix fer free) for a Pearl Jam show, I'm going to have to think for the next couple of days about plunking it down again for a Radiohead show. But I'd probably be up for it.

Posted by Null Protocol on 2006-05-03 11:28:29 +0000
So here is a side question about all of this crap: How/Why do people in the ticket industry find out about this in March and then keep it under wraps for so long? Because venues are small and they dont want big lines / volumes of people looking for tix? I cant figure it out...

Posted by Null Protocol on 2006-05-03 15:24:58 +0000
The price on the website before criminal fees is $41 Link here

Nice that they're keeping prices relatively low.

Posted by Null Protocol on 2006-05-03 16:02:23 +0000
compared to Rolling Stones, U2 et. al I would have to agree.

Posted by dawnbixtler on 2006-05-06 11:24:37 +0000
show appears to have sold out in 3 minutes...

Score! The limit was 2, I got them legit in person - and I was the last one in the line to get them - what is the Pavillion's capacity? 7K?

I thought the show was outstanding. I was suprised by the setlist. They really are a no nonsense band. They picked the cool songs. Didn't dumb it down. They should be knighted.
