Why are people speaking of the presale "yesterday"? On the Wilco site, it says…

"WILCO Pre-Sale begins January 5th, 2005@ 10 am EST via http://wilcotickets.musictoday.com
Public On Sale will begin January 13, 2005 details to be announced."

SO - ARE THEY SOLD OUT or is this a glitch? I keep getting…

"At this moment, there are not enough tickets to fill your request. Please go back and try again. This does not necessarily mean that there are no tickets available. Other ticket buyers are trying to purchase tickets too, and are holding the available tickets."

9:30 pre-sale was yesterday. i do think the bulk of tickets will still be available for public on-sale, not likely to sell out as fast. 9:30 will sell anywhere from 800 - 1000 tickets for a particular show.

I guess I should have read the details to see if I just coulda purchased both nights in one transaction. Anyone know?
I tried the same, but I didn't want to risk losing the ones I had in my basket. I wonder if more people tried getting tickets for night 1.

only 10 percent of the tickets are available pre-sale on the wilco site. so, hopefully we can all get tickets when they begin general sales!

Wilcoworld.net website no longer has tickets. It's not listed on 930 site; and not on tickets.com. Where are you guys getting your tickets? Too bad some of the best recent shows involve passwords/secret handshakes/private relationships. I've seen 40 or 50 shows a year at 930 for the past four years. Guess I'm not a regular! Have fun, you lucky insiders!

did anyone catch the baltimore show a few months back? i still cant get over how incredible the acoustics were in that place. i've never heard wilco sound better. the setting was weird, the stage was kinda bare and the lighting stayed the same throughout, but still, it sounded soooo yumm.

that was a good show, it helps to play in a symphony hall, they tend to have decent acoustics. i also liked the visuals they had running on the screen behind them, but then again, i'm easily distracted by shiny objects.

what is the major malfunction here, people?!? there seem to be a lot of confused and out-of-touch people posting on this thread. i wasn't privy to the 9:30 presale because i don't pick up the "Volume" digest that had the password. who gives a crap about the 9:30 presale anyway as it's only for 30 or so tix for either night.

anyone who follows Wilco should know that, for the past few years, they ALWAYS do a pre-sale through musictoday for subscribers to their website. you e-mail musictoday, get a password, log in on presale day…simple as that. i've bought my wilco tix via presale for the past 3 years or so. furthermore, wilcoworld.net is always good about posting presale and public onsale dates/times.

if you're really into a band and don't want to miss out, try subscribing to pollstar, the band's web/fansite, or forums like this one and stop posting ridiculous and desperate pleas for people to "PM me the password dude". no, dude, get on your shit and do the legwork yourself.

The addition of a frame legitimizes most decent posters. And as long as none of the following are nearby I think everyone will be fine: Sopranos poster, a tapestry serving as wall covering, black light related poster, or fraternity/sorority paddle.

Hell no! There are currently four framed concert posters and one vinyl LP hanging in my living room. It's all in the presentation.

ok. no sopranos or blacklight stuff. no lavalamp or stars on the ceiling either. but i already have a framed back to the future movie poster that i got for christmas. ill have to keep them on opposite ends of the room. or maybe put them both in some sor t of playroom that all the rockstars seem to have everytime i tune into cribs.

In case you didn't hear, music today's password email has been down for the past few days …..dude. I have no problem asking for a PM of the password if someone is willing to give it to me given these circumstances. Sure I could have sent them email earlier but I was also expecting it to work at least a couple days before the sale.
