Is/was there a presale for this? (not begging for PW, just curious because I had not seen/heard of it)

Are the Shins and Brenden Benson really opening? According to Pitchfork and the White Stripes own website, they're only listed as playing the show just before Merriweather…

the Shins have the Merriweather show listed on their site. I hope they are both opening, I just paid $97 for 2 tickets!

Ahhh…that's good news, since I was able to score GA Pit tickets. Not sure I can make it, but if I can, that will be awesome.

I gave up and bought the row P seats. I wouldn't mind seeing one show at Merriweather this summer, and maybe I can even get a designated driver in exchange for the second ticket. (hint hint?)

Uch, I got pulled into a meeting and though I dashed out at about 10:13, I only got row HH seats. Maybe I'll get GA or better in the general sale…?

I'm confused, are all the floor tickets GA and then they have the lawn tickets? Or are there some tickets that have seat #s on the floor?

I got PIT tickets too. Lots of them ;)

Kosmo is so right on: Everyone down there will get to experience the show like it was in a small club.

Can we set up a little tent community around the 9:32 Bar?
