Tweeter Show in Mansfield, MA .... Its a real possibility
Posted: May 6, 2004 6:53 pm
I read the thread about a possible tweeter center show in Mansfield.
Today, I heard from two other people who do not read BN and are not Buffett followers, the same story. I also called a broker I knew and without me saying anything, he indicated to me that he heard that Jimmy may play one show at the Tweeter Center.
The broker told me that because of that rumor, he was not going to buy as many tickets to sell since he got burnt last year when Bruce decided to play Fenway after he had sold 2 shows at Gillette. Gillette tickets were hard to sell on the secondary market after the shows were announced at Fenway.
Coincidence, Fact, Fiction.... Not sure... Take it for what it is worth... A rumor.
At a minimum, the rumor is putting the brokers (at least the one I talked too) on edge. A broker will tell you that a face value ticket at $100 a ticket is a hard sell, just because it is $100. The majority of casual buffett ticket buyers, will say they will not pay over $100 for a ticket and with the lack of tailgaiting it will be interesting to see what happens on Saturday.
