Regardless of the sentiment today, Ministry’s impact on Wax Trax! and vice versa was significant.
Accordingly, it would be cool to see a cover of “Cold Life” (complete with horns) or “All Day” as part of the performances. Didn’t En Esch do a cover of “Work for Love”?
Or maybe a DJ set weaving in the early Ministry 12" singles?
He’s right about the hotels and their locations.
BTW The train runs from each airport. Thus, a rental car in not required - it will cost a mint to park it.
I suggest finding a hotel that is reasonably close to a CTA red line station.

Well, it’s kind of hard when it’s sold out. Unless you’re selling me your ticket?

Oh… I forgot about that [blush]
Uh… hey, some asshole will probably be selling them off ebay or craigslist for 2 or 3x the value…

I was counting the replies in this thread.
I know of four additional people that are confirmed; she is one of the four.
For those without a ticket who really want to go:
Even at a sold out show, sometimes it is worth the risk to show up early to see if anyone in the line is selling their extra. It has worked several times for us in the past. Of course, there is always the risk that you will not find a ticket. However, Metro capacity is 1150, which means there is a decent chance that someone has an extra they are not going to use. I’m guestimating that somewhere between 10 and 25 tickets will be resold.
For those who selected their tickets be mailed to them, they should have their tickets by now. You may want to start searching CL and evilbay or post up a CL want ad. Here are two sets for sale: http://cgi.ebay.com/4-15-4-16-Wax-Trax-Retrospectacle-w-Front-242-TKK-/330533273619?pt=US_Tickets_all_in_one&hash=item4cf5518013
Keep in mind that one set of tickets with postage was $73.27.
and that guy wants $175 just for shipping, scumbag. Wish I could be there.
$175 for shipping? Scumbag.
That’s a good Cocks lineup. Somebody tape it. If not officially, give us a bootleg.
I posted this in the lodging thread, but Julia hinted on her latest update that maybe more tickets will become available:
“Oh…i almost forgot. For those of you who have asked if there will be a few additional tickets available for the weekend?
…stay tuned”

EDITED
If you’re waiting for more tickets to open up it most likely will not happen until April 1st (OR possibly March 1st) and the the number of tickets will not likely exceed a couple of dozen or so.

Wow!!! That would be hard to pass up! (A little easier to pass on if there’s no tickets available, but still, AWESOME line up).
Any chance of this being filmed?
Afra- Can we just ban this Baboon guy already?
