11/12/2006 2:17:19 AM

jesus christ, last time they were around here was three years ago and I saw 'em in Charlotte with Snoop Dogg (lol) for maybe thirty bucks.

But $185???? Please tell me that's a typo... :goes to check:

11/12/2006 2:27:27 AM

11/12/2006 2:31:05 AM

They're no Goo Goo Dolls.

Alternative rock icons Red Hot Chili Peppers and alternative pop duo Gnarls Barkley have joined forces and are coming to the RBC Center for the first time.

The tour supports the Red Hot Chili Peppers' ninth album, "Stadium Arcadium," which sold over 400,000 copies during its first week in stores, enough to earn the group its first No. 1 album on The Billboard 200 chart. The record's first single, "Dani California" was the band's fastest-selling single which they followed up with the cut "Tell Me Baby."

Special guests, Gnarls Barkley, featuring Grammy-winning producer Danger Mouse and vocalist Cee-Lo Green is supporting its debut album, "St. Elsewhere," which spawned the mega-hit "Crazy."

I saw them here with Snoop Dog as well, and I was about to say, no way tickets are $185, because that other concert wasn't anything near sold out

11/12/2006 7:21:54 PM

presale begins on the 14th, guess you can find out real prices then

I might go for Gnarls Barkley

no way they are $185. just looked and tickets for the show in Charlottesville the next week at 58.50

11/12/2006 8:20:40 PM

$58.50

11/12/2006 9:47:04 PM

alright, maybe what I read was a typo. That is still pricey, but affordable.

11/12/2006 11:16:08 PM

there are a few bands i wouldnt mind paying $60 to go see, red hot chilli peppers are not one of them.

11/12/2006 11:17:11 PM

i'll probably go to this for $60 since it's rhcp and gnarls. if it was one or the other, no.

11/12/2006 11:30:18 PM

anyone know the password to the fan club presale that just started?

11/14/2006 10:01:19 AM

apparently you have to be a fan club member in order to get the presale...at least through slick deals that is so

11/14/2006 11:07:42 AM

yeah i figured it out. joined the club for $30 and bought some floor seats in the presale.

they give you personalized PW's so you can't even share them

[Edited on November 14, 2006 at 11:17 AM. Reason : ]

11/14/2006 11:17:04 AM

^ How much?

11/14/2006 11:26:39 AM

its already a high enough price as is without joining the fan club

i dont need to see them that badly

11/14/2006 11:45:01 AM

yeah it's a christmas gift for my brother

tickets were $58.60 each plus a "convenience" charge of $10 each.

i ended up paying like $137 for two tickets on top of the fan club price.

i wouldn't generally spend that much on tickets to a concert, but it's a gift that i know will be much appreciated so that makes it better. plus i get to go too and the last time i saw them (w/foo fighters a long time ago) i got in for free so i guess it sort of averages out

11/14/2006 12:10:19 PM

never been to a concert at RBC before and trying to figure out how a group of us are gonna get tickets in the same spot.. are their sections that are open seating or are they all assigned seats?

11/14/2006 7:52:25 PM

mine have seat numbers and everything

11/14/2006 8:26:54 PM

OMG THE TICKETS ARE LIKE ELEVENDY BILLION DOLLARS EACH

FOR THE NOSEBLEEDS



[Edited on November 14, 2006 at 8:38 PM. Reason : ps: post BLSM sucks penis]

11/14/2006 8:37:09 PM

^^ok yeah i figured it was all assigned seating.. what was your exact ticket price after all the charges?

[Edited on November 14, 2006 at 8:37 PM. Reason : a]

11/14/2006 8:37:24 PM

^^what the fuck is BLSM?

11/14/2006 8:57:04 PM

blood sugar sex magic. a cd they made

11/15/2006 9:39:49 AM

how does BLSM stand for blood sugar sex magic. wouldnt it be BSSM?

11/15/2006 9:42:05 AM

PET PEEVE ALERT

I hate it when people refer to an album as "a CD." CDs are a format that albums are released on.

11/15/2006 10:25:28 AM

^^^^^tickets are $58.60 plus the $10 convenience charge, so i guess you could say $70 each to be safe.

my total came out to be $137 and change for 2 tickets.

^nobody gives a fuck about your pet peeves

PET PEEVE ALERT

If I pay to see RHCP, I don't want to hear Tom Petty covers.

11/15/2006 10:33:40 AM

RHCP is one of my all-time favs, and their concerts are great, but come-on, how can you validate spending that kind of money for a concert when so many great bands will play in a venue where you can, i don't know... actually see? for 25 bucks or less.

11/15/2006 10:36:00 AM

agreed. i could see paying that much in a smaller venue because of less tickets being sold, but ill be damned if im going to pay that much to see a band at the RBC center. the sound there is horrible.

11/15/2006 10:39:05 AM

and honestly, at a venue like the RBC, you are watching the concert on the tvs for the most-part, might as well wait for the concert tour dvd.

11/15/2006 10:40:27 AM

The only time I paid that kind of money for a show in a venue even close to that size was SP in Charlotte on the Adore tour. It was in that large theater next to the Cricket Arena, and it was $40, but it all went to charity.

11/15/2006 10:53:25 AM

been a big RHCP fan since the BSSM "album" so I think I can sacrafice a few things to go to the concert since they've finally decided to come around here

11/15/2006 11:15:38 AM

Somebody please buy me a ticket to this for christmas. PLEASE!!

11/15/2006 11:18:23 AM

parking is expensive, but I work at the vet school - so I will just walk from work. muahaha. How many of y'all have gotten them yet?

11/19/2006 9:49:47 PM

got my tix, lower level 70 bucks. totally worth it, love rhcp.

11/20/2006 12:31:44 AM

Got tickets for Xmas 2 days!

1/20/2007 9:39:45 PM

got my tix on thursday or friday when they released some. lower level sec 116 beside the stage.


so is gnarls barkley opening? it appears so, ticketmaster jsut lists it as RHCP

I hope they play Sir Psycho Sexy, that's my xbox live gamertag

and John Frusciante needs to grow the fuck up and play some stuff off one hot minute, I don't give a shit if he wasn't in the band for that album. Coffee Shop is one of their best songs. as is walkabout

i got ticket for $56 plus a $10 "convenience charge"

I'd love to see them again, but I don't like indoor concerts.
