i doubt it, how many times have riots broken out at Belle and Sebastian shows??? i doubt merriweather wants to risk another……well, i am sure something rowdy happened at one of their shows sometime.
B & S fans = Rowdy….funny stuff

no, i was totally joking. in fact, B&S is one of the rare shows i would like to have an place to sit during!
Wow, this is the first I've heard of this show too. I'll have to make sure to get tickets.
Their 930 shows in March were pretty upbeat affairs & with B S S & Ted Leo…. GA seems like the way to go..
Any pre-sale information out there?

Also there will an internet pre-sale via Music Today starting Wed May 3rd at
10am, a password may be required that we'll provide very soon.

Quoted from belleandsebastian.com.

Does anyone have an experience with Merriweather presales? Will I have an equal chance of getting better seats in the presale and the regular sale or does one of them usually yield better seats? I vaguely remember the presale for the White Stripes giving out crap seats.

Or I could totally be making that all up. I'm praying for GA anyway.

i got orchestra pit tickets from the musictoday presale for that show.
musictoday presales give out GREAT seats, but there aren't a lot of them. they usually put about 10-15% of the seats onsale, but they are the best of the best, so if this is a seated show and you want good seats, you better get them in the presale.
How do you sign up for Music Today? It wouldn't let me join without the name and password of a "street team member"
I was able to sign up (the street member name is optional, and it's asking you to choose your own password), but didn't see anything about the b&s presale. Anyone have a link or password yet?
I can't even find where to sign up…. :(
Thanks.
You bet!
