Since their inception in 1995, Wilco have continually sought to explore fresh musical and emotional territory, relentlessly redefining themselves and their body of work. 2002’s Yankee Hotel Foxtrot saw the Chicago-based band reaping the greatest commercial and critical success of their 10-plus year career.

Basher Posted May 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 The info above is from an email from Massey Hall - I would trust that the information is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afro poppa Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 summer rules. definately gonna have to agree with that one....SO MANY FANTASTIC SHOWS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 I assumed this show will be sold through TicketBastard but there is no listing on their site for an onsale date for this show yet, nor is there any of the info above listed on wilcoworld.net I wanted to know about ticket limits. Can I buy only 2? 4?Any thoughts? Can I reasonably assume tickets go onsasle at TM at 10am this Friday? Any ideas on ticket limits?thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted May 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Don't buy from TicketMaster - they get a crappy selection of seats for Massey shows. Buy from Massey Hall directly.At present I have no plans to use my Friends memebership for this one, so if someone wants really good tickets please PM me.Here are the conditions:1) Money must be paid to me immediately once total is confirmed, either by going to a TD Canada Trust branch or by Interac Email Money Transfer2) You must either pick up the tickets at my office (in Markham) during business hours, or be willing to receive them by mail once I get them.3) You must take the tickets I get, which I assume will be in the first few rows of the floor, centre.

Basher Posted May 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 BTW, Massey Hall has not yet posted information about ticket limits - but assume that it is 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basher Posted May 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 DON'T buy through TicketMaster. If you miss out on the Wilcoworld tickets got to Massey Hall's website and buy from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
