I know...I skipped out on the church covered dish to get home in time to buy tickets, I sat in my dress that I wore to church for two hours hitting refresh, I took a 15 min break to eat left overs then got back on my computer and spent the rest of the day alternating between refresh and f5.

Im going to sue ticketweb for carpal tunnel! Well I would if I had it!

5/20/2007 7:19:07 PM

i just hope this doesnt bring on all those crappy TM fees along with it


there was a $7+ charge when i did finally almost get through so 2 tickets were like $47

5/20/2007 7:20:12 PM

^I hope that we didn't get charged for any of the times we tried too!

5/20/2007 7:20:58 PM

Considering I paid $40-something per seat to see SP in 1998, and ten years later I'm trying to pay $20 plus some fees, I'll take it.

5/20/2007 7:24:37 PM

is there a time for the sale yet?

Yeah, it really was. I absolutely loved "Adore" (one of the few, I guess) and I think that made that particular show that much better.

There are very few shows that I can remember vividly a decade later, but that show and seeing Beck at Reynolds Coliseum were two that are10+ years old and fit that description. Of course... maybe I didn't get as fucked up for shows then as I do now.

5/20/2007 8:50:07 PM

so kev, are you gonna drive all the way to asheville to sell your tickets? did you read the ole fine print

5/20/2007 9:04:21 PM

yeah he made a thread in classifieds that said he would

sounds like he's just trying to take advantage of the real fans

apologies if i'm mistaken, but that's what it looks like

5/20/2007 9:10:42 PM

The current plan is to move ticket sales to ticketmaster.com (this will not happen until sometime tomorrow) Further details will be announced some time after 10am EST Monday May 21. Watch this space!

5/21/2007 11:22:14 AM

[Edited on May 21, 2007 at 11:24 AM. Reason : ]

5/21/2007 11:23:01 AM

5/21/2007 11:23:52 AM

5/21/2007 11:36:15 AM

T-t-t...today, Junia!

5/21/2007 11:58:49 AM

i don't speak baby ... can somebody translate what the hell that little dude is saying? All I got was "you suck" and "smashing pumpkins tickets." Actually I'm not even sure I heard that right.

You really couldn't understand? I thought it was pretty clear:

He says:
"TicketWeb, you suck."
"I want Smashing Pumpkins tickets."
and then I can't understand at the end

a guy said they go on sale at 7, then we got:

Quote :

"We haven't made the final decision about on-sale time yet. So, anyone that has seen an "official time" somewhere else, please take note: The only official word will be that posted on our homepage and the SP's website. As of right now, we haven't heard yet - no final decision has been made. I promise we'll let you know as soon as we have it, and I promise you'll have four hours notice."

It can't be 7 now anyway, because they would have had to announce it at 3 to give us the 4 hour warning. So it'll be at least 8:30 or 9, I'll bet. I hope it's later, so that I don't have to leave class early.

5/21/2007 3:16:54 PM

I hope they go on sale at 4 am

then I might get some

5/21/2007 3:26:44 PM

its going to be sometime tomorrow im sure, like noon or something i bet

5/21/2007 3:29:31 PM

You assume incorrectly

"We're getting word from management as we speak as to the time - stay tuned. I'll post it here right away, and then we'll get it up on the main page next. Apparently they are still looking at 7pm - I'll let you guys know as soon as I get the call. Thanks, LW"

5/21/2007 3:36:03 PM

they changed the CAPS LETTERS time to 7 PM on the main page, too

they must be MAD

5/21/2007 3:42:24 PM

that doesnt really make sense tho. its already almost 4..only 3 hours till 7

5/21/2007 3:42:36 PM

probably good since there will be less people, since they're giving 3 hours warning, but there will still be thousands. Sucks for me since I have to get out of class early.

*cough* "business call" *cough*

5/21/2007 3:45:08 PM

hehe. yea i have band practice tonight butttt theyre just gonna have to be pissed at me because im not missing this :x
