amazing. who'd request that for bruce? not exactly in his wheelhouse. good for him taking a crack at it.

by the way webster or estreet, if you come across bruce and "the killers" dude singing "thunder road" the other night i'd love to see it.

 

Ask and ye shall receive:

my favorite version of Thunder Road from early 1975 when it had different lyrics:

 

thanks, joe!! ;D 8)

no video but audio on this "wings for wheels" ("angelina's dress waves..") is much better:

 

Got through on the computer for the last show at 12:00:07 and requested 4 seats. Typed the words super fast. Was in the system by maybe 12:00:15. Got shut out. That is ridiculous.

 

Ticketmaster's internal scalping machine strikes again.

You can go over to TicketsNow and pick up some very nice seats for $1000 a pop, I am sure.

 

Requested 1 ticket at 12:00, at 12:01 was told there were no tickets available.
At 12:05 I was offered a single ticket in the 300 level at 12:05.
At 12:17 was offered a single in 113. Turned it down because that's too far from the stage for me.
Got offered another single further back about 10 minutes later.
Haven't gotten offered anything since.
I'll be waiting on a day of show/week of show drop when the great seats get released.

 

A couple of the boards say that reserved seats may not have gone on sale at noon on the dot, but GAs did. After all of the scrutiny with the last set of shows at the Izod, I can't believe that TM couldn't get its act together.

 

They have their act together. The problem is their "act" consists of diverting all tickets to their in-house scalping mechanism, not making tickets available to ordinary customers.

 

You can go on right now and get GA standing room for the Thursday, Oct. 8 show

 

I got seats to the last LAST show (in sect 312) at 12:20. Had the usual bullshit (got right in, got booted, got in again, had a 10-minute wait, said it had no tix for me, tried again, waited 10 mins, got my tix) but I got thru. Just want to be in the house for the last one, don't care where I sit.
