They haven't in the past, presales are usually in places that have season ticket holders, like football or baseball staduims. Unless you want to buy box for buffett, chances are that all seats will go onsale at the same time a week from today.
Though there already are a few seats showing up on Stubhub :o
they just know they :evil: :evil: :evil:

Ummmm...we're less than a week away from when this goes on sale and it is not yet listed on Margaritaville.com or Ticketmaster.com?

Either this date isn't exactly firm yet, or Jimmy is doing a huge favor for us "superfans".

Is Ticketmaster still the ticket vendor the tour Jimmy will be using?

The dates must be firm-they wouldn't pay for a newspaper ad if they weren't. and the ad did say Live nation presents so maybe it won't be ticketmaster (who historically doesn't even post these shows until a day or two before they go onsale)

isn't livenation and ticketmaster, basically the same. I thought the ticket inventory was the same regardless? I remember searching livenation just to be hotlinked back to a ticketmaster url when I actually 'clicked' the buy tickets icon. [smilie=giggle.gif]

Hi everybody!!! :D

Just a little FYI before my Pirate gives you the heads up.

The 2 shows at Gillette Stadium had a presale starting on 2/16/07 via Ticketmaster....

They apparently are sold-out of presale tickets for both shows.

As for Alpine, there does not appear to be any presale.

But, Alpine is a Live Nation venue, so that is where I'd go for tickets when they go on sale Monday.

As for Tinley, I'd go with TM or LN, they are pretty much the same company.

It has been our experience that especially lately, TM and LN don't post a link for tickets to a lot of shows until 24-48 hours before tickets go on sale.

When in doubt, find out right here at BN!!!!

See everyone soon!!!! :pirate:

I have a theory about that.....

July 21, 2007 : Tinley Park in Chicago

July 28, 2007 : Alpine Valley, East Troy WI

What's happening in between those dates in that neck of the woods?

Would not surprise me a bit!
