Somebody call the FBI. Atomicfront did not get tickets at a presale for the Lumineers. Clearly, there is corruption here. I demand an inquiry. I just hope Seth is not involved…

What exactly did you expect The Lumineers record has been on the top of the Spotify chart for awhile, clearly the band is VERY POPULAR. Did you read the article linked to? So by your definition the board is full of trolls because they don't agree with your musical tastes. I also believe that there is some ticket speculation going on on sites like Stubhub, i.e. not everyone selling tickets have them in hand….
Exactly, I've posted this on here before and have had this conversation with multiple people in the past. Scalpers/brokers/stubhub/etc DON'T have tickets in hand quite often, especially in a situation like this where it's a presale.

yeah it is popular but i pasted the presale password in and typed the captcha instantly. I doubt that there were many tickets available. I am sure there were mostly sold beforehand. Usually you have a wait were the no tickets available comes up. The ticketmaster site has that tickets delivery will be delayed until jan 11th. a lot of the listings on stubhub have instant download. Who are we kidding.. either imp, dar, ticketmaster, or the band themselves are selling the tickets on stubhub.
and usually for instantly sold-out shows you have people on here either saying they got tickets or they didn't get tickets. No one is even mentioning it.
Maybe the Lumineers just aren't popular with the people that read and post here regularly. I seem to recall very little traffic when Fun. tickets went on sale around here.

i just looked at facebook and everyone is saying they didn't get tickets. Someone said thing as me they got in instantly and no tickets available. Other person posted same thing as me no tickets were actually sold to public. So there you go. Why even announce the pre-sale if you aren't selling tickets to the public?

That is quite a charge to be making around here…. at least have the guts to post it on the Hey Seth thread if it is what you actually believe happened.

Do you belong to an underage girls group on FB? Creepy.
Aren't you confusing him with Vansmack?

I think the implication is that people who would likely be talking about a Lumineers DAR show are likely to be underage girls. But that's just my guess.

God bless Tom Waits but he has to be the laziest live performer.. good lord how long has it been since he played DC? 30 years?
He must average 3 shows a year going back to the mid 90s!
he's too busy with prime-time cartoon voice appearances:
"Tom Waits guest stars on The Simpsons Sunday, January 6 on Fox. Check your local listings."

The Lumineers public sale sold out in less than 60 seconds, too. Damn.

evidently most people on the lumineers facebook page thinks the DC show ticket release was a scam. Today I did get some delay and it took me a while for pages to come up and a while for the no tickets found to show up so some tickets were probably sold through ticketmaster site. I dont' believe any were sold through ticketmaster yesterday.
I don't know who got the tickets outside the system but it is obvious that is what happened at least via the pre-sale.
930 club facebook page has about 60 replies to it so far about the bogus ticketmaster sale.

There are 685 tickets on stubhub for a pre-sale for an event that is at a venue that hold 3700 people.
how many times does this have to be said: just because a ticket is listed on stubhub doesn't mean the seller has the ticket. you can list as many tickets as you want, with nothing in hand/confirmed - the seller is promising that they will find one for you, eventually, not that they have secured a ticket.
add up all the tickets for sale on stubhub, ebay, craigslist, ticketnow, etc… OH MY GOD THEY SOLD 5000 TICKETS FOR A 3700-CAPACITY VENUE THEY ARE ALL CROOKS I DEMAND MY RIGHTS CALL THE FBI!!!111
