what? they werent like that at 5:30pm when I got there! I was about to buy a ticket off someone whose friend wasnt coming anymore. the staff told us and several other people that we had to wait until the whole party (together with the ticket buyer) is here to enter the venue. I didnt want to wait another hour and managed to buy myself a ticket from one of the staff members for 50 dollars cash! I totally lucked out!

So lucky! Was wondering if I should do that on Saturday but I don't have the guts to just ask people. I'm sure people will have plans that fall through, but tickets@damienrice said there was no wait list. I have to think of some low key options bc I really really want to go again.

totally worth trying! I was not expecting tickets at the door but the staff member said they released a few at the very last minute

Bump :)

En route to NYC on the 171 train from Boston.

What a beautiful day for some Damien Rice.

Catching the 83 from Boston in a few minutes. So excited!

Probably some industry folk who couldn't go at the last minute so they released their holds.

Exactly. There was even a wait list for industry people - I didn't learn until 2:30pm that I was definitely getting in.

any idea what it might be like at the apollo?

Not a clue, though I'm sure there will be a lot of industry people there that night as well.

Keep checking for drops on ticketmaster... I'm lucky to have gotten lower mezz in the presale - and I almost threw them back! Will definitely be looking for extras for friends who got shut out.

Okay, leaving for the city for the day. Let's see if this pans out better. Blue and white dress, teal tights, purple coat. Feel free to say hi. If I don't bump into anyone this time, I hope everyone else there has an incredible time!

Red dress, black boots, khaki coat. See you all tonight!

PS-Mike Rennie, can you check your PMs? Got myself in a bind this afternoon.

Headed to penn station right now! Excitement is rising!

There are maybe 10 people here so far. Probably going to be more early birds since it's not a work night.

enjoy the show everyone!
please post pics and videos afterwards :D

How's the line now?

Probably like 50 people.

Have a great time tonight! I can't wait to hear about it. I wish I was going again but this will have to do for tonight:

Anyone has recordings or videos?

I recorded the entire show.

I have audio of the completely acoustic Blower's Daughter and video of Trusty and True, but no laptop/wifi until tomorrow afternoon.

It was an amazing show and so nice to meet so many of you.
