Club's 30th anniversary?

cr*p again, I see your reply now, thanks azag.
hmmmm, I guess I never registered to get forum emails.  Great, just great
crap, sorry, I was trying to modify my other post. So, I'll ask: did I miss the start time of the event entirely?
oh yeah is this lotto for one ticket or a pair?  ;D
deadline for entry is Thursday, May 27 at 10am

God bless Seth and the 930 but the cancelled ticket thing is horribly lame!


I hear that brother… I hear that…

Have never experienced something like that..

I better win the lottery or I am going to be PISSED.

Me either, and I checked and have emails enabled - I'll keep my fingers crossed!
I took the day off to pray that I win the lottery and get a pair of tix.

I do, however, wish I hadn't replied via my Blackberry.  I'm concerned I f'd up the formatting of my reply.  Can't go back and fix that.
A pair. You and a guest.

Same.  *sigh*  I mostly lurk here, though.  Was the email blast limited?  Ah well.  I live nearby and can always try lurking around the club instead of lurking around the internets.
I received the e-mail to the account I use to buy tickets from TF rather than the one I receive the blast.

ok, good to know.  so when will they announce the lotto winners?  ;D
they said forum winners would know by noon today
Well I said that before I saw the stellar lineup that was assembled, and only in reaction to some of the tiring overhype that was going on in the forum. No offense intended and apologies if necessary to the 9:30 Club and it's staff.

I think the same thing happens with FreeFest. Some naysayers in this forum will crap all over it in advance, but then if one or two of thier favorite bands are booked, they're all over the free tickets like flies on cow manure.

Well in the case of the 930 30th Anniversary show its not so much about the acts but about the community..

Even if I don't manage to be there I got to hand it to Seth for making it a free event and largely by invitation..It really is like a birthday party….
i think the cost of admission should be more than free . . . just to see hutch and julian in the same room together.

nope, this first invitation went out to forum members only.  maybe you needed a certain post count to be included?

email blast subscribers should be getting an invitation later this afternoon/tonight.

that would make sense.  i think i've posted twice in the 3 years or so since i registered.  damn.  who knew one of my regrets would be not spending enough time online?  i'll try through the email blast.
