Did everyone get their Nick Cave tickets before they sold out?
He’s not playing my town this time, but it’s cool - I caught Grinderman a couple of years ago.
He’s not playing my town either.
I will be in Chi-town.
Nick Cave pre-sale went Pete Tong - blank, then wouldn’t load, sold out in 2-3 minutes. Much like Pixies pre-sale a few years back, you weren’t allowed to choose tickets, just purchase and “we’ll let you know what you’ll get.” Uh, no.
Couple hours later ended up with third row floors in the center section at Massey Hall in Toronto through short notice MH pre-sale - ie. tix on sale in 30 minutes. Front row available but waaaaaaay the fuck over to the side and identified as such - “speaker seats” - either loud (no problem there) - or partial view due to staging.
Yeah, yeah - new guy - lurked for years, never arsed to sign in until now. Too much of a Luddite to have an avatar.
No west coast dates! Hopefully they’ll be back in the fall. Sounds like the pre-sales were a nightmare though… lame.
I’ve seen them a few times and it’s always an awesome show. Excited about the new album too.
If anyone wants to go to Chicago who did not get tickets, feel free to PM me as I have a hard pair on the floor (not the pit).
