very welcome compatriota
well... the announce about mini-tour for central and southamerica is on his myspace now (copy-paste from damien´s site, lol).

and although i really want an official date (i´m dying inside actually), i don´t think he´ll pass us by. besides, there´s no schedule (on january) for la trastienda nor nd ateneo (my bets for damien´s gig) yet. the only thing we can do is wait, i´m afraid. but, please bernadette... give us some great news soon

by the way, i assume you´re from buenos aires. am i right?

Well if tickets have been sold for Chile then he'll be in the area. So I'm sure he'll drop in for a cuppa.

this is really weird!! verenita, have you called to ticketmaster or DG Medios to know what's going on? I dont know if you got "puntoticket" in Argentina, but they are selling the tickets here in Chile....

no, i haven´t made any call. but i did some research and nothing appeared.
i don´t want to drive myself crazy about this (i´m crazy enough already ), just wait what´s coming... if there were date in his site just for chile and mexico, maybe i´d be a little worried, but i think the dates for the whole tour will appear all together... we´ll see.

they always start selling late here. Radiohead confirmed their visit months ago, tickets went on sale everywhere in october or something, except here. some people weren't even sure about the date and venue. finally they starting selling them today. which, btw, are ridiculously overprized!!

welcome, clara

welcome, clara

maybe you´re right in comparisson with other places... but, it´s too early to sale tickets in my opinion... the concert will be in march (24th). i feel sad for all those who dont´have money (right) now but they´d love the band or just want to see it... but as they say "time doesn´t run, but flies" (this simple thought makes me tired, i mean it... we´re in the mid-december, for fook´s sake.)

Devushka,

What a nice place you got.
Well, I don't think someone can but it to me, because here in Brazil the concert is gonna be in a place called "Citibank Hall" and the owner is (of course) Citibank Group. So the first days only citibank cardholders can buy tickets and I don't have it. A friend of mine has this card, but I don't think she can buy with my student card to pay only a 1/2 of it.
Well, let´s wait...

By the way, I'll be in London
Do you guys that live there or know the city have any tip to me, like stores to buy damien' stuff???

hola chicas/os!
Yes, I am from Buenos Aires, and although I have seen Damien live a couple of times - I know, don`t hate me, I was very lucky - I`m dying to see him live in Argentina, I think he will love it...I really hope we get news about it very soon, and despite having an almost empty pocket (thanks to Mr Yorke and friends) I would ro running to La Trastienda or wherever he plays....

Saludos a todos y crucemos los dedos!!

The Excelsior is an important newspaper in Mexico and two days ago it announced this:
http://www.exonline.com.mx/diario/no..._mexico/444964

Ahora el Excelsior confirma los detalles del concierto de Rice en nuestro país. Éste se llevará a cabo el 21 de Enero en el Lunario de la Ciudad de México. Aún no se sabe nada de los boletos, pero me imagino que saldrán a la venta en los próximos días. En cuanto tenga más información se las haré saber.

still no official date on dr.com but it seems that on Jan 21 Damien is playing at the Lunario del Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City

Just got my tix for the Mexican gig!! I was there from minute one and not even because of that I managed to get first row , but I did get second row

I hope Brazil and Argentina get their tickets soon too!!

Also, the Lunario website now lists Damien's date in México:

http://www.lunario.com.mx

Oh, and from what I can gather the gigs will be Damien-only (no other musicians), as the Mexican Ticketmaster website has a graphic on the page in which you purchase the tickets that says: "Damien Rice en solitario", which means "Damien Rice Solo".

It could mean that there's no opening act, but something tells me it will just be him and his guitar like he has been on the more recent gigs here and there, which should be very nice

Ticketmaster Mexico handed me a first row ticket but then wouldn't let me complete the purchase because my credit card isn't from the US or Mexico.

Oh well, hopefully date(s) in Aregntina will coincide with my time in Buenos Aires and Ticketek (?) will treat me better. Is Ticketek the most likely way tickets will be distributed?

And yes, by the looks of Ticketmaster Mexico it's Damien solo on the mini-tour, ie just him and his guitar. He probably just wanted a vacation in South America.
