Aint No Right

It is incredible to see tickets popping up on those sites. And that subsequent tweet with the estimate that 40-50% of the revenue frrom ticket sales for the tour coming from the three states where scalping can't be curbed is remarkable. The system is so broken. I still go to a lot of shows and feel ...

Ha! Yes..."healthy" - I like that! Vivid is a scalper site, as far as I know. Personal views of that sort of things aside, I would worry that any tickets from the likes of there and Stubhub would get canceled. The resale system seems to be working; I have seen tickets come up for every show, at some...

PB, how many shows do you have tickets to now?

Umm...do I have to admit? It's a little embarrassing, given that Artemis is currently locked out!

(11, pending new show announcements)

I last saw them on the Delta Machine tour, which was a GREAT show. I've passed it up a few times since, but like PB said, with Fletch's passing, this might make it a bit different. And I'm sincerely questioning how many more DM tours are going to happen, so it might be my last chance. It does feel ...

Can, meet worms.

Those were all arenas, but I'd say arenas in Europe are typically smaller than here. Wembley Area is something like 13k capacity, one of the ones I went to was something like 4k capacity. Shoreline is over 20k

https://twitter.com/CraigatCoF/status/1640117704844623872 That's the first Toronto ticket I have seen pop up...they're out there! As you say, it shouldn't be this hard, but I hope you manage to find something (decent). I am sure you will. This weekend has been a joke - the volume of time spent on sc...

I have been thinking the same. It's odd. I keep trying to explain it for a few reasons in my head (pent up plague era demand, 'relatively' inexpensive seats, etc), but I am not sure any of of these makes sense. It's probably just the legacy act thing. Whatever this is, it's on a whole other level of...

Sorry to hear that....keep trying. I keep seeing things pop up. Some good, some not so good, but better than not being there.

They're randomly popping up for various shows now...slowly. Vancouver (for which they have actually released a bunch of standard seats). Phoenix. Etc.

Best of luck, pals!

Thanks...it's finally live now.

Artemis - one ticket for Toronto available now. Wheelchair. Not suggesting you want it, but it's working for your show.

Saw two for ATL...went to grab them. Then gone. So frustrating. Keep at it.

I am not sure that anything that may happen today is timed like the on-sales, so it may or may not be at 10am local time. I fear it may be more a case of obsessive checking, for those inclined.

Merci.

I don't know this as fact, but more so a case of cobbling together pieces of information. It's my understanding that Ticketmaster hold control of the tickets. The whole thing about Friday is that they will unlock people's ability to transfer tickets. Whether that's from their own site, or elsewhere....

All fingers and toes crossed, Artemis. This has been crazy!

Echoing this sentiment - good luck.

My jaw just dropped for a moment when I saw that - since it seemed quite random as a location for a a second date. And especially since CO is one of three states that seem to hug scalpers, it would have been surprising for them to go out of their way to cater there. I think they'll mostly/all be Wes...

Encouraging that Perry says Dave is “doing good” I did notice a new post from Vanessa DuBasso from yesterday and it's photos of her and her cat only. https://www.instagram.com/p/CqE7VgvuGbW/?hl=en Not to be crass, but I only clicked on it to see whether she's still wearing the ring. That didn't tak...

That Denver date on 6/6 is one of the original 30 - have they added a second date?

New interview UsLV5ZorScQ No question as to how much they are enjoying Josh and what he's brought to the band. The comparison between "listeners" and "drowners" is also interesting. Echoing the thanks for this - the tone of conversation and body language is really interesting. Perry, particularly, ...

It's insane. It really is. There's just no going back from this. I went to hundreds of shows as a teenager because they were accessible....affordable. That's gone forever.

If I had to guess, I'd say Dave is probably in rehab right now and will probably be in the studio with them in 90 days. There's nothing better for a recovering addict than hobbies with people who are also clean. I'd wondered about this....Dave having gone dark in social media (yet again) in recent ...

"The Cure Tried to Stop Scalpers. Brokers Are Selling Entire Ticketmaster Accounts Instead"

Remarkable/nuts.

I didn't see Relapse, but have seen everything else. Flea is Flea and there is no hiding that, but it almost felt like JA have spent the last 20 years hiding the non-founding member of the band on stage. As much as I like Martyn, he slotted it without standing out (plus, he wasn't there for long), b...

I wonder how much longer Dave isn’t going to acknowledge anything whatsoever other than an occasional Instagram like. I can see that dragging out for years and Josh sticks around The longer this charade goes on, the less it seems to matter. I don't doubt that anyone who still gives a shit about the...

I haven't given up hope. I'll check out Twickets and keep checking Ticketmaster. About 25 years ago, I worked in a hotel booking theatre/sports and room packages and have experience working with Ticketmaster. There are always some tickets held back for various reasons(corporate, AMEX, etc) and if t...

My predictions: Sacramento (wishful thinking), Portland and either one SoCal or Orlando.
