Dylan 4/2 @ 930

The big news is that there's a presale tomorrow (Thursday) – so no waiting in line outside the club!! What's so funny is that I just saw the Victoria's Secret commercial four mintues ago….surreal.

Surprise! At the Club!

Some things are just too bizarre to believe: for example, Bob Dylan in a Victoria's Secret commercial. Or better yet: Bob Dylan playing a surprise show at the 9:30 Club. Or best of all: a Dylan presale just for 9:30 Club email subscribers. We swear this is no April Fool's hoax.

Was it necessary to post the password?

Do you think that was wrong? I've seen passwords up, and traffic here isn't huge, plus there's a two ticket limit. If you think it's wrong, I'll take it down. Really – no skin off my nose….

-edit-

So that was WEIRD. I just tried to edit my message above, and I got it all as editable, but the bottom five lines with the link and password were completely mising. I re-posted, now they're gone. Maybe concurrent to my editing an administrator was editing?

Sorry, truly, if I did something wrong.

In this case I think that posting the password defeats the advantages of being on the clubs email announcement list. Seeing as there are 5000+ registered forum members, there are either a lot of lurkers or people who don't bother coming back.

If the forumites feel strongly that the password be publically available here then speak up. Otherwise I'll just edit it out.

Sorry Kosmo – so many forum regulars have been unable again and again to subscribe to the email. And I never think of lurkers, if you asked me I'd say there are 50 people here…..

I was taking it off just as you were. Thanks.

We do, by the way, post passwords to other presales here….but like selling Black Cat tix, this *is* the 9:30 Club forum…

PS, I never thought one of *my* posts would be edited by an administrator! I'm so full of shame~! ;)

no need to apologize… seeing as its Dylan and scapling his tickets is big business i feel the less public the password is the better. it's not to say that the email isn't being forwarded around lickety split. but it only takes a second to register.

To register for the email? While that may be true, it takes eleven registrations before one sticks….

i don't have a problem with forumites privately sharing the password amongst themselves, thats what pm is for. and i realize other presales passwords are posted here, but I and others may feel Dylan is a special case. For instance I sure would have liked to have gotten the Prince presale info, without having to join the fanclub.

i realize that numerous people have complained about not getting the email… and several more will probably be whining about tomorrow… but email lists aren't perfect sometimes.

I agree with you, Kosmo – I shouldn't have posted it. I did because of the email situation, but enough of us get it and end up sharing the info via P.M. You're right, I tried to take the info down myself. also, I didn't think this one through well because (1) it's not a show I'll be clamoring for tickets to, and (2) there was so much buzz I got all excited when I saw the email….. You're the voice of reason, I hear ya. :)

the password is available other places. I actually just found it on another site. Sorry, I altered this post because it orignally said where the password could be found. Sorry again.

I think we may have posted passwords from the snail-mail newsletter, as people had trouble getting it. The list_serve newsletter seems to work just fine. I just resubscribed to it this morning (since it had been blocked at my work e-mail by the spam-blocker) and I received it just fine.

But, I'll readily admit that my request was made mainly out of self-interest.

Go GGW, are you going to all 3 shows or are you trading up?

I sold my Saturday tickets but I'll probably go to the Warner show, as I got really excellent seats. And I plan to go Friday, assuming I get tickets.

This won't start that "selfish" argument again, will it?

So…this pre-sale. Is it box office only or can you do it via internet?

I'd sure like to see the email if anyone cares to share :D

muchas advance gracias

thank you, thank you, thank you

so how soon will dylan tickets show up on ebay or craiglists? i've got 10:09am

and ggw brings up a good point about the email list. the weekly annoucements can easily be regarded as spam because it bulked email. many spam blockers work by having people indicating mail is spam, even if they signed up for it in the first place.

one of the bulk emails i get suggests adding the senders email address to a receivers address book. in this case that would be 9:30_club@mail.vresp.com

Ah, yes… quality sober dylan… should be good for those of us who can secure tix.

Tickets gone in 2 minutes. Wow!

Thanks to those who got me the password.

This show should be great.

When is the club booking Springsteen?

I was incredibly close to punching in my credit card until I realized there's a little something called rent that I need to pay.

GGW, I expect a full report on Dylan.
