Doubtful. We are spending time in Ireland this summer with her family (well I will be windsurfing off the Maharee pennisula . . . hee hee) and I am coming back early August for work . . . she is going to stick around out there because I think she has finally come to terms with my nomadic self and that she will be traveling to Alaska with me when I head up there in late October for work. I think she will be out Ireland way until atleast mid - september although she may be back. She is going to want as much family time as possible before we move to an island in the middle of nowhere . . .
aren't you already there????
at lest most of the year??
an island in the middle of nowwhere? yes. Nantucket is out there. But my new place of employment is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out there.

Well, in 2005 I got shut out at TM and I still had a great seat courtesy of another BNer who had an extra, at face. So the whole ticket race ain't over til it's over....

I wont even pick up tickets until probably the day or two before the show. Last time there was a GW show, first and second rows started showing up a couple days before, I didnt buy because I couldnt go though.

I kind of have the same feeling. I will try om the 10th, if I get good seats I will buy them, if not I will wait until close to the show. Tickets always get released.

Or you can always get some in the lot the day of the show. It never fails, people always say "get me tickets" & then bail out at the last minute. Don't get tix the day they go on sale? Don't sweat it.

Hehe, I guess you could say that
That also, was the result of grabbing those tix two days before the show! I paid a little bit over face because the person was desperate to sell, but it was worth it.

In the parking lot in Gillette last year, a guy had 6 tickets for the floor he was trying to sell.....they were behind my seats, otherwise I might have been tempted...most casual fans aren't even thinking of concert tickets for a Sept show yet..and I bought mine on Ebay for $5 over face value....paid $310 for 2 tickets...row 27 of A5 with shipping....I'll look into that again this year if I can't get what I want on the 10th
