No, ticketmaster announced this morning that you could buy the subscription along with your tickets.

Just logged back in and tried again, got 3 tickets straight away. Guess it was just the volume this morning that was throwing it out. Don't know if it's the same at all the venues, but for the San Jose one, I have to swipe my credit card at the entrance to get the tickets. Guess that stops people selling them on for crazy amounts of money.

Who is supporting U2 at your venue? looks like it's changing throughout the tour, we get Mumford and Sons.

Also, got my Green Day tickets. They are being supported by Catfish and the Bottlemen, which I'm quite excited about too.

Well, that was an expensive 15 minutes.

Excellent!!

We've got the Lumineers (???) supporting U2. I also have to swipe my credit card at the entrance. Better not lose it!

I am so excited about this!!

The Lumineers are pretty good. Kind of folky, almost like an American Mumford and Sons, if you like that sort of thing. One or two of their songs have been used in ads, I think, so you might recognise them if you heard them.

Oh cool, I like the Lumineers, I think I'd sooner have them than Mumford. Although I'll probably enjoy them too. I love live music, I'm quite happy to see anyone really.

This will be my daughters first standing gig, so that could be interesting. She's got elbows like razor blades though, so I'm sure she'll be alright.

I'm on a roll now. New Order tickets at The Greek in Berkeley for April.

I'm almost tempted to fly to New York and seem them there in April too. My favorite band ever

rbackhouse

The tempting worked. Going to see them at Radio City Music Hall in April

I've seen U2 twice in San Jose including a couple of years ago. So I am going to pass this time and got tickets to see the SF Symphony with the Chinese pianist Lang Lang. A rather different concert!

Thanks for the subscription tip.
We're going to U2 in Pasadena now :-)
My favourite ever album. Excited!!!

N1cky

Excellent 😁

Not much difference 😄

I don't think I would have bothered to see them if this was just a regular tour. The fact that it's this album makes all the difference.

I know it's THIS album which I love. Although I hate to say that I still have WAR and BOY on vinyl from when I bought them as a teenager.

Giddily excited, Radiohead tickets go on sale on Friday. They are playing 2 nights in Berkeley so hopefully I'll be able to get some. Can't see any pre-codes at the moment though.

Pissed off, tickets sold out within 30 seconds. I'd been logged in from 8am on different devices, no luck anywhere. Instantly on the scalping sites for at least 3 times face value.

Saw Richard Ashcroft this week in L.A.
Absolutely fantastic. His singing, his band, the energy, the soul.
Ended with Bittersweet Symphony.

One to remember.

Next. Blondie and Garbage double bill in Santa Barbara.

Royksopp in Oakland is next for me.
