Persistance pays off folks. Just 2 mins ago, 12:46 got through on the Interpol site and picked up another ticket….

Damn this emotional rollercoaster! :p

i wonder if thats the same "person" who had erasure tickets available before they even went on sale.

According to the interpol site, both pre-sale nights are now sold out.

Guy is in California. That's what erks me. It's one thing to get beat out by fans, but a damn broker, in CA…oh well…

Since I am finding nada about this on either the 9:30 site or tickets.com… does anyone know WHEN the general onsale will be? Since I was about 3 minutes too late for the presale today, I'd like to know exactly what time I need to start hitting refresh on my browser tomorrow…

He says he's in LA, but has a Nevada area code, a New York fax number, and a Delaware mailing address:

And I just realized, the 930 presale, tickets were being shipped. On the Interpol website, it was will call….

Trust me Suki- Chimbly would say everything said here directly to your face. ;) - Back in the country 5 days and already causing a ruckus! Awesome.

Sidebar- Although I am a "junior member" I have found that being nice has gotten me tickets to every show I want to go to - and it also helps to return that favor to others (you new members might want to look at last week's discussion of Bright Eyes and Arcade Fire tickets to see how it works).

have i shared my adoration for kosmo lately?

damn, you're getting me in trouble for laughing out loud in cubeland.

i don't remember exactly why i registered on this board, but i've been posting here for quite a while now. i suppose it'd be nice or at least amusing to be able to remember.

I got them from the interpol website, yay!

The annoying part is not that the tickets sold out so quickly. Ok, demand is high. It's that the web thing was basically broken from the get-go. Unexpected behaviors with shows disappearing, tickets being reported as unavailable, yada yada. I mean, at the very least I'd expect you'd check out that your own presale link that you emailed to thousands of people was correct. Here's hoping they can improve their technology next time.

Post #4 for those who like to count and then prick-wave ;)

he's also got himself quite a few U2 tickets for sale at $499 for 2 to the denver show, and $999 for 2 tickets to the glendale show. geez.

So when does the regular sale start? And how do I get tickets?

permission granted to play in the corner of the sandbox, no smoking please.

Jeez check out the craigslist DC tix section - already flooded with offers from scalpers who scooped up all the presale tix. Grrrrrrr. :mad:

I regret to inform you, but baggy pants wearing teenagers will only be premitted to see them in fall when they play the Patriot center and tickets cost $51.50

Damn. I need to start waking up earlier on presale days. I keep missing all the fun.

I hope Interpol opens for My Chemical Romance. That would be flippin sweet!

Vansmack, you friggin' crack me up!
