my friend was on the phone with an agent for 10 minutes before sale time, asking about DCFC and other bands... adn right at 1, the agent said "you want phish?"

my buddy said, yes, 2 4 days passes....

he could hear the guy entering the info.... and then heard his boss say that that strategy wasn't allowed and that my friend would have to hang up and call back for phish tickets...

and then the phone was hung up on him!

:|  That's a crusher.  sorry to hear that.

Friend of mine got through on the automated line only to have his card declined after he had 2 4 day passes reserved for him.  Fuckin dummy. 

I scored two of the 4 day passes.  Just checked my confirmation number online, Im good to go.

that is fucked up.  I called the 800 number about 20 times in the 10 minutes leading up to 2pm and got nothing but busy signals.

On the bright side, I did just score a ticket to MPP.  A friend had an extra.  I guess today wasn't a total loss. 




First night RR are going for $1400 on stubhub right now, AWESOME!

Man!! The Gorge are going for $122 first night and $104 for the second... On Stubhub... I'm thinking I should grab `em now...

It's a fucking Phish song, some of them are very complex compositions, some are not.

This one with its complex vocal arrangement falls right in between.
But that and a hook aren't enough so I'll let Trey know his songs have to start giving out handys." RJ

StCarl

Dude.  They haven't even gone on sale yet.  Gorge shouldn't be that hard of a ticket, really.

The Gorge holds more than twice as many people as RR.  It's gonna be ALOT easier to get tix to the gorge.

Gorge should be easier, BUT it's all relative, I doubt that everyone who tries for tix tomorrow at noon gets them. 

I would bet that a lot of folks that get shut out of RR will be looking at the gorge as plan B.

But, I don't think our fans do happily lap it up, I think they go online and talk about how it was a bad show.
