Radiohead - discuss possible venues here

Shut out once again. I don't really want lawn. So if anyone has some they don't need…

in case anyone considered taking me up on my previously stated bet: you would have owed me a beer.

my first pull was a pair in the 200s, after that it was all 300's or lawn. pairs in the 100's and 200's were gone by 10:05. pairs in the 300's were gone by 10:18. singles in the 300's were gone by 10:22. i had a 4-person chat session going with workmates and friends who were all desparate to get tickets, one dummy kept holding out on placing an order. lawn is all that's left now. in my books, this show was an effective sell-out.

if by that you mean "there will still be lawn tickets available on monday", i can't disagree.

now i'm not even confident that will hold.

Picked up 3 individual tix, via Ticketmaster, and via Live Nation, within 30 minutes. The TM one was Sec 101, Row E, Seat 1 (extreme far right), The first LN one was Sec 103 Row R, and finally at about 10:30, the second LN one came up and it was a PIT. So I am a very happy man. Sorry Mom, going to see Radiohead that day!

I was in as soon as they went on sale and tried to get a single pit ticket with no luck.

If anyone has an extra single from the presale, I'd love to take it.

That was rough. All I was able to get was a single ticket in Sec. 304, Row G. i think my friends got shut out. If anyone has extras, please let me know.

lawn seats too.
but i overslept the sale by two hours.

Yes, incredibly rough. Stuck with lawn tickets. Did anyone here luck out with extra pit or first tier seat(s)? I have an extra ticket for Wilco (America's Radiohead!) at 930 club next Wednesday that I will spare in exchange (plus the price difference, or course)

i'm surprised to hear about folks that only got lawns and were never offered seats… were you on dial-up? i was pulling 300's for 20 minutes.

don't bother buying a lottery ticket any time soon… you've just tapped out your supply of luck for the next year or so. congrats!

I got 103, does anyone know from experience from sitting towards the side is a bad view? I have high number seats.

if i remember correctly, high numbers in 103 = far side (as are low numbers in 101). your view of the stage will be good - go here and click on the Interactive Seating Map (3D) for an approiximation of what you'll be seeing.

and in other news, someone who i bought a ticket for (304 row C) is now being a d*ck and telling me that he now doesn't want it, can't afford it b/c of his upcoming vacation, blah blah. i'll let you know if it becomes available.

There are still some single seats in the 300s popping up at 1:30.

i just let go two seats in the 202 section, although they were separated. my first pull around 10:05 am was for a pair in 201, and i bought those. but i've been refreshing these two others for a while, i got them around noon. anyway, how horrible is a low number seat in the 201 section? i'm guessing it's all the way right from the above posts.

was up at and ready to get my ticket from ticketbastard at 10am. I guess I got too greedy and had two windows open to try and get the best seat. I got section 102 row B and I paused for a second and thought about it. In the other window I wanted to see if I could get a pit. No luck then all of a sudden I was locked out of getting my seat in 102. I was like CRAP!!!!!!! Then for the next 20 mins I tried to get a ticket but the thing kept refreshing forever. Finally ended up geting a seat in 303 5th row. It was a seat right? Little pissed that I lost that 102 but oh well. Then I come and look here and it says that livenation still had seats. DING DING, YAY!!!! I got a 201 row B at 12:50. Now to figure out what to do with other ticket. Maybe just sell it at the show.

is this thing completely sold out yet?
Ive tried ticketmaster several times recently, and no tickets have come up

i bought one lawn ticket at nissan this morning , so it doesnt matter for me, but im curioius

side point, but what kind of rumors are floating around about opening bands for this tour? i would KILL for deerhoof to open again. probably wont happen, but still

i'm curious to hear from those who "got tickets through livenation" - because when i go to livenation.com and hit "buy tickets" for the show, it takes me to ticketmaster. did LN have it's own ticketing system up earlier today?

i would strongly recommend finding a buyer for your ticket ahead of time. nissan is in outer space - very few drive all the way out there in hopes of snagging a ticket. the chances of you not selling the tickets on site are pretty high, IMO.

looks like it. i'm unable to pull up even a lawn ticket.

wow.

And Walalce was dead wrong. Why does this not surprise me?

Yeah earlier in the day Livenation had its own selling thing. I guess later on when you clicked on them they connected you to ticketmaster. I guess I lucked out when I looked at 1250. I mean I did get a seat from ticketmaster but just wanted something closer.

no problems with tickets for me.

If anyone got an extra PIT ticket (I know, fat chance) PLEASE sell it to me. You can name your price. PM please. Will love you forever.

is anyone aware of any other shows that completely sold out nissan on the day of onsale? i can't think of any. just curious.

It's making me think that RFK wouldn't have been that crazy after all.

Probably Jimmy Buffet or maybe Dave Matthews, but I'm not sure.
