Just bought my tickets for the show here in St Louis. When it was my choice to pick seats, I picked 2 in the middle section (price is same for every seat) but kept getting an error. I think the seats I was picking were sold out. I picked 2 seats in the upper section and got em with no issues.
I got busy at work and missed the front of the queue. All that was left by the time I got in was upper level seats almost behind the stage at the top. Not doing that, and not paying an exorbitant amount for resale so I guess I'm ####ed.
Got my tickets for the Kansas City show today. Just me and my 16 year old son who loves them too! So Pumped!
I had the same thing, but was able to get tickets here. It whittled down rather quickly.well I showed up 15 minutes before for rage tickets to Oakland and now that I'm in the room there are 2000+ people ahead of me.Not holding my breath that I get tickets for this.
Yeah I was able to get some, at first only nose bleeds were available but lower ones would pop up then be sold before I could grab them. Ended up with section 212 row 6 so should be looking right at the stage and not too high.
I had the same problem, it kept saying there weren't 2 tickets available. Missed the floor but ended up somehow sneaking into the lower level after refreshing about a million times.
Mine was scarier to me. It kept saying it "couldn't process on this platform" or something like that. I was using Chrome on a browser, so I was freaking out a bit. Then thought ... what if the seats I picked are simply gone. That's when I tried for seats in the upper section, but towards the front. Got the first 2 that I picked.
shroomed with the band founder colin back in the 90's before he started 'Tarkio'.Buck Bradcanon said:
This was an awesome show. It was not as packed as it was 10 years ago but he still has it. It is so easy to lose track of how much I am drinking at shows like this. I was stumbling when I left and that is something I try to avoid. I guess it's ok every once in a while.
I really liked Brandi Carlile when I saw her. Was funny because I went to see Old Crow Medicine Show and I thought Brandi Carlile was opening for them. Turned out it was the opposite although they both played full sets. During the break my wife and myself started noticing that we kind of stood out in the crowd. We stood out as one of the minority heterosexual couples there. I knew about Carlile and her sexuality but I did not realize that the entire lesbian army of Arizona would be there. This was a night I promised my wife I would not drink so I was stone cold sober and I was again very much in the minority. I almost got in a fight with a pretty good sized girl. She accused me of kicking over someones drink. I didn't and I was being super polite but she would not stop. I eventually just asked where she thought this was headed and I swear I thought she was gonna start swinging. A bunch of girls pulled her away and came back to apologize. It was really pretty funny. I felt I was in a no win situation. I could beat up a girl or I could get beat up by a girl. Neither one of those scenarios is good for me.
Post concert review, Eli Young Band was pretty good, but it was the strangest concert experience I've ever had. We went down to Des Moines, as that was the closest they were coming to the Twin Cities. It was at the Minnesota Wild minor league affiliate's stadium, after they had a game. Arena is decent sized with 16,000 capacity, but it was only 2/3 full for the game. After the game, they put some carpets on the ice for people who paid extra to be on the floor. Concert stage was at one end of the rink. GA section filled less than out to the blue line, the rest of the main floor was open. No one stood for the whole concert, except for a couple randoms, and the section or two closest to the stage (not us). At the start of each song, people would start to leave, so as the concert went on, the non capacity crowd got smaller and smaller, until the stadium was less than half full at the end. Very weird, and have never seen that for a concert before. Granted, this wasn't the typical concert set up going on after a minor league hockey game, but still...Going to see Eli Young Band...wife likes country.
I'm from Des Moines, but haven't lived there in a long, long time. What buiding/stadium/arena was it in?
Wells Fargo Arena. Not a bad arena, better than I was expecting for Des Moines (but I have a biased "big city MN resident" opinion of Des Moines).
That was built after I left, so I've never been in it. Growing up, most concerts were at Vets (ie Veterans Auditorium).
I saw the Black Crowes back in the early 90s and to this day is still one of my most memorable shows I've attended.
