That's an understatement. The Pre-sale had worse then crap seats. god awful seats. certainly sucks if you pay 50+ for those U1 seats (and my searchs came out to worse seats half the time)

Chim 07-19-03 01:01 AM

this is the Waste.co.uk site right? I didnt see anything about them selling on monday, but is it 12 AM sunday night when they go on sale? Gotta get the trigger finger ready

We should stop making fun of those U1 tickets. Someone here actually bought a pair of them.

HAHA...someone got U1 tickets? What a LOSER....L-O-S-E-R.

Jackskeleton 07-19-03 03:04 AM

Oh they know they are loved and it's just a joke. ;) atleast they are the only ones with tickets to the show right now. ;)

candyrocket786 07-19-03 12:07 PM

Well, no luck with Ticketmaster online...only Lawn available.

Looks like I'll try WASTE on Monday.

evenflow 07-19-03 12:08 PM

Woo hoo! Got Section 103 and 102 for the San Diego show, which are the closest reserved seats. Chose 103 on the left side because it was the E row instead of the G row for the 102 section. :up:

evenflow 07-19-03 12:31 PM

The LA shows sold out after like 20 minutes :(

Jackskeleton 07-19-03 04:31 PM

So far.. failed pre-sale.. failed ticketmaster..

Only thing I have left to try is WASTE and I'll be lucky to even attempt to get that..

I tried the Friday show about 10 minutes after 10 am (after I got over the fact that I got seats in the 5th(!) row behind the pit for the San Diego show) and I got mostly crap or seats worse than G2.

evenflow 07-19-03 05:28 PM

I wonder if Aphex Twin was able to improve on these:

All I know is they go on-sale on the 21st...but the question is what time zone? Will they go onsale 12:01 A.M. UK time or our time??

My suggestion,
Check W.A.S.T.E. at a MINIMUM of 3 times:

12:00am UK time (7pm TONIGHT Est)
10:00am UK time (5am EST)
10:00am EST (3pm UK)

The last batch of tickets were supposed to go onsale 10am EST.
I lucked out and happened to check at 8am, and they were already onsale. turns out they put them onsale at 10amUK which was 5am where I was.

But...........they put the Seattle show onsale a FULL DAY early.

So it's really anyone's guess.
They tend to put them onsale at "anytime" because their servers can't handle the traffic of a "10am EST" onsale that would occur.

briank 07-20-03 10:54 PM

so who is staying up checking WASTE tonight?

I'm going to bed now, and going to check at 5amEST.
So that gives me 5hours sleep atleast for work.

I'd want to sleep untill about 7am but don't want to take the chance in case they went on sale same time as the last batch.

good luck everyone.

evenflow 07-20-03 10:57 PM

I'm satisfied with my 103 tickets for the San Diego show but I'll check WASTE to see if I can get pit tickets so I can scalp them on eBay. Just kidding (or am I? ;) )

Yeah ...you're at the right site. That message pertains to the allocation of tickets from the first leg of the tour...

candyrocket786 07-21-03 04:07 AM

Well....its about 4am (central) and it looks like WASTE's site is getting hammered by other users.

No tickets available yet.

evenflow 07-21-03 09:01 AM

It says on the site that the tickets won't go on sale until 10 AM Pacific/1 PM Eastern.

....They posted the message about 6am (Central)....after everyone (including myself) stayed up all-night, hoping to score some premium seats....

Actually, the tickets won't go on sale until AFTER 10 AM Pacific/1 PM Eastern....so once again...you'll have to keep hitting that refresh button for quite a while.
