Hi! First time poster, but have been reading this forum for 8 freaking years trying to find out more info on when a new album would be coming out. Thank you guys for everything! Figured I would finally join with all the craziness of presale going on...

In 2006, I flew to LA to see him at the Orpheum for two back-to-back nights. It was magical.

I was able to get London seats! Also got 1 Warsaw ticket. Super excited. I've been telling my husband for years now that he would go back on tour and to be ready.

Good luck to everyone trying for Friday.

Default The Box tickets

for anyone who bought tickets for The Box, was your credit card already charged? I bought two tickets and i don't see any pending or posted transaction for it on my credit card. I did get the email confirmation though.
i wouldn't mind not getting charged for the tickets hehe but just getting nervous.
has anybody else not being charged yet?

I have a full charge from ticketweb for the Brooklyn show and an Authorized Temporary Merchant authorization - waiting for final amount from merchant for the Saturday Box Show.

I don't want to scare you but you should look into.

Default awful presale

I'm not sure how everyone else made out in the presale, but my experience was awful. I was ready at 9a.m. with the presale password for Brooklyn, and every time I entered it, it said that code was not yet validated. There was also no place for me to input the amount of tickets. I am very upset with TicketWeb and feel it was poorly managed. When I called them to ask about Tickets as their portal was clearly not working, he said the tickets were sold out. I was never even able to present the presale password (drmfff) that I was e-mailed about. I'm very disappointed about the presale and I hope I can get tickets on Friday. I'm wondering if I should just call them right away at noon or if I should try Ticket Web again. Thoughts? What experiences did you guys have?

Yes, if you read the thread you'll see it happened to all of us. Some inquired and/or kept trying. It seemed the promoter didn't realease the tickets until 10am, and most of us didn't have a problem purchasing then.

Ditto about the tickets being released at 10 am. Someone on Facebook kindly pointed out that the Ticketweb said the presale started at 10, then moved that to 9. There must have been miscommunication since it definitely went on sale at 10 on the dot. After the disappointment of The Box's presale, it was a relief. Hopefully you can get tickets on Friday, at least to Brooklyn since Warsaw is at least twice the size of The Box.

this is not looking likely. There are already 4 pages of tickets on stubhub for T.O show and people are not having luck logging out with tickets right at 9 on the dot this am, they were already gone. it is so frustrating that such a limited ticket event are being eaten up by bloody scalpers.
I hope I can get something tomorrow but otherwise see ya in another 10 years am absolutely not paying stubhub prices.

Sorry if this has already been said but... I can't BELIEVE how much tickets for London are. It's obscene!

Gigs and tours have some, I think!

Hopefully for the next tour (feels nice to be able to confidently say that) they can control the presale link better to try and prevent touts. These sales should prove that Damien can still sell these venues no problem.

Good luck tomorrow

Was trying for floor but got balcony for some weird reason, but after reading all of everyone's woes I'm not complaining! Good luck on Friday, it's not over yet, and I'm sure he'll be back in the new year.

Very curious to see if there will be actual tickets or if it's a list that you need to provide id to get in. As much as I love to save stubs, I really hope it's going to be the latter, and that it will screw over any scalpers who bought tix in the hopes of gouging a real fan.

i'm not seeing any tickets on stubhub for The box and the email confirmation has my name under "ticket pick-up name" and it also says "resale invalidates the ticket"; so hopefully that keeps those dirty scalpers away from getting tickets.
Good luck tomorrow!

Well, I am never very lucky...I did try again at 10a.m. on the dot because I figured that was the case, but there was still no option for me to purchase tickets? It seems as if I could never select how many tickets I wanted to purchase, and therefore it wouldn't let me enter my card info.

Is the time for tomorrow 10a.m. or 12p.m.??? Because I've seen both now. And I'm feeling some deja vu.

See what happens first you still have a chance, I hope you get something! If not this is only the promo tour, i'm sure he'll do a full tour with more dates everywhere.

Operation suceeded....sooooooo much better experience than on Wednesday...Good Luck to whoever is still trying to get tickets!!!!

p.s. Try using SeeTickets rather than gigs and tours, site traffic will probably be loewr as wasn't advertised on DR.com
