I have no idea the difference between the two or how tickets are allocated. Ticketstobuy is the less used one, and has lower charges, but will The National allocate any tickets to them for a show such as this? Who knows?

Just bought my MBV ticket via ticketstobuy.com.

:)

you going to be djing the show?  ;D

maybe mbv will pull a lady ga ga . . . and cancel at the last minute to perform at the next season american idol auditions, then reschedule at the richmond coliseum.

Heh heh!  Nah – if I were, I wouldn't need to buy a ticket.

Too bad they're not playing at the 9:30 Club…

I wouldn't mind them at Landmark. The Coliseum would SUUUUCK.

No onsale date yet?

There's a link in the email for onsale info but its not loading. Maybe you'll have better luck with it.

It only has 2 shows listed, nothing about the Merriweather date.

Listening to any show in the Richmond Coliseum is like hearing the act perform in a huge tin can.  They even added these huge brown baffles to the brick walls but to no avail.
