This week rollcall

well this site has its limitations…as VU is listed as 4 different bands
The Velvet Underground -40
The Velvet Underground and Nico - 1
The Velvet Underground & Nico - 5
Velvet Underground - 2


but the Venn diagram of fans of Roxy and this site is a circle

So tonight’s Roxy Music show people apparently got moved from 300s to 100s


I think they stopped selling 400s for DC show cause they plan to close it off and move people down so buying a ticket for the 400s on stubhub may be a good play…

no "Virginia Plain" on setlist….pass

Definitely a disappointing set list…really resembles a Ferry solo show

So glad I saw Ferry at Strathmore about ten years ago. He could still do it.

I just bought two, though the videos have me half regretting it. At least it's seated, making it more compfortable when my wife inevitably falls asleep.

did you get a 400 level seat?  How do you know if you are upgraded, do you find out when you arrive?

Yes, 400. One of the first letters of the alphabet, which I think is the best you can do for the 400's (?)

I don't know anything about upgrades. Isn't that just Hutch hearsay from the Toronto show at this point? If they did upgrade, how would one know which 100 seats are paid for already and which are not?

Hearsay? It’s multiple people saying they were upgraded in Toronto. It will happen at the venue when you get there. I wouldn’t bet on being upgraded to the floor though.. more like 200s…maybe

It would be funny to be upgraded to the floor and be sitting next to Julian

I bought the seats on all four sides of my group so there's a potential stink barrier. That one Muse concert where DFA1979 harassed Miss P and I taught me a valuable lesson.

Well you better not be standing in front of Space and his wife

Yikes.

I have to confess, I did not. instead, I was at home watching Schitt's Creek, Never Have I Ever, and Better Call Saul.

What makes you want to switch from show to show throughout an evening?
