I guess if you're into those faegs Modest Mouse then it's more of a deal, but… Isn't Breeders at 9:30 that night? I'm thinking I'm going to have to do that instead..

Is Johnny Marr still playing with Modest Mouse? It's worth $10 of the ticket price to simply be in the same zipcode as the great one.

I am pretty sure he is. The National is also playing. I'm excited to see them too.

Hopefully, Modest Mouse won't be terrible like they were when I saw them about 7 years ago. awful.

I think modest mouse is better like in a club setting. Outdoor venues and festival they are so so but like at the norva they were awesome. So for the presales how do they do seats??? Will it be all?? Like pit and seated too???

For Merriweather the pit is resesrved seats.
They were selling tickets at all 3 price levels, so there's a little of everything.

great to know. will these seats be better then ticketbastards??? Like does REM aliquat certain amounts for the pre sale?

I'm not sure if tomorrow's presale is just the leftovers from today, or if there's a new allotment. If it's the leftovers, there won't be many good ones left.

I'm sure TM will have their share of good tickets though.

You know - I'm not so sure the allotment from today will have been all that picked over… it's been a long time since they were doing anything on a regular basis. In order to be included in today's sale you had to be a member of their fan club prior to Jan 28 of this year. How many people do you REALLY think that included?

Probably a crap load. REM fans are pretty good but who knows. I just dont want to deal with ticketmaster on friday if I can get the tickets tomorrow because I'm trying to get Pearl Jam tickets too. So we'll see.

I got row C in today's fan club pre-sale. How'd you do Bombay Chutney?

Row A. I think that's 5th row.

Got my tickets. About 15 rows back, center. Not too bad.

thanks for the heads up, k8!

i feel good knowing i have tix (r:c row z), but i think i'll try again friday morning.

Hey, FYI. Keeping on this 1996 tip, Stone Temple Pilots are getting back together, too.

Son of a bitch I thought that the 75 buck tickets were just for pit and didn't realize it was for all the center seats too. I got R Lodge Row A. Is that any good?????

Most of the pavillion seats are good. We sat in that general area for Radiohead a few years back and they were fine.
