Thank god 96% of the bands I like don't usually even sell out, much less bother with pre-sales.
White Stripes at GW

I don't know if any one else got it, but I just got an email from 9:30 saying:
"Elephant," the new release by The White Stripes is quickly being heralded as one of the best albums of the year. The peppermint-popular duo Jack and Meg White proved at Coachella that they've got a great live show.
Tickets go on sale Saturday, June 7 @ 11am through Ticketmaster, but you're getting them first!
Presale Starts Thursday, June 5 @ 10am-Friday June 6 @10pm
Password is : candycane
It appears that it is a different password. Just thought I would let you all know. It also contained the password for Placebo.

I was just about to post the same info. I suppose we should be well armed with two pre-sale passwords!

$41 for one White Stripes show… they had better put a freaking great show on. Ain't it great how ticketbastard now hides the handling fee on the order page and not it include on the page with the "convience" fee.
i got tickets on ticketmaster.com. i didn't have the password, but i typed in elephant and it worked.
isn't this a general admission show? is it worth the $11 to get these presale tickets when i can just buy them at the club for less? i doubt it will sell out right away, don't you? this is d.c. after all.
Well I got an HFS email saying it was bloodcell, which did not work. So I tried candycane and it did work.
Perhaps candycane is a pre-pre-sale.
$78 for 2 tickets….. they better be good.

since i was off seeing the luray caverns yesterday, i didn't get a chance to weigh in on the white stripes at 9:30 club show. personally i thought the show at the black cat was much better than the 9:30 show last year. the 9:30 show felt padded without the rawiness of the seeing them at the black cat. then again there sometimes the first time you see a band will always be the best time you've seen that band. the white stripes maybe one of those bands for me.
Originally posted by BookerT:normally i would follow this logic… but seeing as the general sale is on a sat and would probably forget they were on sale, i just punted and paid the charges. and yes there will probably be loads of tickets available, but the show did sellout at the 9:30 club the last time.

Disturbing, really.

Well it's your money to do what you all want to do with it, but $78 for two tickets to see those two feckin eejits! ;)

Originally posted by mankie:ticket prices rarely bother me. Infact I think shows are normally great value compared to say, the cinema or their price in Britain.

The thing that bothers me is the tickets have a face of $30, yet they cost $78. I wish the price on the ticket was the price you paid, I dont like surprises.
I wouldnt pay $40 to see Dave Gahan though, I wouldnt go and see Huey Lewis either, but it would be fun taking the piss out of someone who had.
