In case y'all didn't get the announcement via tpt.com.

Best Buy presale May 22.
Fan Club presale May 23.
General sale May 26.

*sigh* Of course it figures that's the weekend I have to be in San Francisco to work a show, and I've been looking forward to/hoping for an Atlantic City show since the tour announcements began.

Hopefully this is just the first of a series of Fall dates, and perhaps in smaller venues. The good news is I also got a Best Buy Rewards Zone email this morning that, as I had signed up for the BBRZ programs after the first cut-off date for eligibility in buying presale tickets, I was now eligible to get a presale code for them for the AC show.

So I gotta thank whoever gave me the heads up to still register with them "just in case"... And I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for more Fall tour dates (and days/places I can actually get to!)

Sockii,

Thanks for the heads up.

Boardwalk Hall? Hmm . . . interesting . . .

Anyone ever seen a show there? If so, how's the sound?

Sorry to hear that your schedule is getting in the way so much, sockii!

>Sorry to hear that your schedule is getting in the way so much, sockii!

Yeah, it's the downside of working weekend shows and being on the road a lot, especially from Memorial Day -> November. I mean, I can't complain TOO much, but that's two shows I'd really have liked to have made (the Fan Club show & this one) that I can't because of scheduling. Argh. :evil:

There's still the rest of November, right? Right? Has to be some more added, not just Toronto and AC (fingers crossed)...

by **DirtyMartini** on 18 May 2007 13:31

Exactly.

And it means that a second swing of MSG should probably happen around the same week.

Just as long as it's not that Thursday, Friday or Sunday night (which it probably would be, wouldn't it?), before I have any chance that I can get back home.

At which point I'd likely being going postal.

Eek! My fingers are crossed for you, sockii. Hopefully they'll do the MSG sweep after that weekend.

Animal, you going to go for AC?

it's an ok venue as McCartney & Elton have performed there. It's smaller than most of the other northeast venues being used. I'm expecting them to move on to Washington DC for 2 shows after A.C. and then Atlanta

Just what I was thinking, Johnny. If AC is Nov 3, DC is sure to follow :-)

Now to find someone with a BBRZ card. They better not announce DC next week and do presales while I'm in the air to Vancouver or something knuckleheaded like that! What do you need from the BBRZ card anyway?

SS, I don't have a a BB card but I know a few people who do that owe me some favors back big time that have no interest in going that I'm sure will allow me to use their codes, so if there is a DC date, I will get one for you when I get mine.

by **DirtyMartini** on 18 May 2007 18:15

Heh. Conroy, if you're handing out BB codes, I certainly wouldn't object to one . . . :wink:

You are an honorable man, Conroy. I shall make you a paper hat out of The Province. I may need a lesson or two first, though.

Uh oh. My credit card is wilting again....

by **tonydrums** on 21 May 2007 12:42

Can't wait until the Boardwalk Hall show. Got my credit card at the ready. I saw the boys there in '84 when it was called the A.C. convention center.

by **sockii** on 22 May 2007 01:51

If anyone needs an AC BB code plase drop me an email asap - a friend gave me one today that I can't use and I want to make sure someone deserving (namely another sc.net person) gets the chance!
