A girl I know bought a pair of tickets to the show and her husband hates Joanna, so I've found my ticket! I found some cheap flights, I'm going to buy my plane tickets when I get paid on the 13th. I can't believe I'm going to Arizona to see Joanna. I'll see you there, polli and wanbli
nice Bev - you only live once! Look forward to meeting a few folks- as the event gets closer let's consider meeting up for a drink or a bite at some point. I wish they were Fri/Sat shows instead in Tuscon/Phoenix...monday morning flight back to work will come all too fast
Ugh, I'm so irritated!!! My friend who lives in Tallahassee was able to pick up tickets for us, but they were $31, which I think is a little steep. I figure it's because this venue lets students in free, therefor they have to jack up the prices for everyone else. I also want to go to Tampa, but the only way to buy tickets right now is through Ticketmaster and I hate Ticketmaster with a passion and avoid them at all costs ON PRINCIPLE...besides the fact that a $20 ticket becomes $34.25 with all their fees. But I just called the box office and they don't have any tickets yet and can't tell me when they will get them. I will just have to check back and I am antsy and worried they will sell out. But I just can't make myself buy from Ticketmaster. I tried to go through their checkout like 5 times and when it came time to submit, I just couldn't do it. If I have to buy through TM, a little piece of my soul is gonna die.
Joanna's tickets are very reasonably priced compared to most signed, bigger named artists that sell out venues
I totally agree on Ticketbastard - the government has been "looking into" their illegal price-fixing, monopoly for over a decade. This will never get anywhere, because if they are found guilty of gouging their customers, they will owe hundreds of millions in back fees to customers. In the 90s Pearl Jam fought them and did their own thing to keep prices down for fans
Most artists don't have the resources to manage that process
So what do you guys think? It's over two months until the concert--how much should I worry about tickets selling out? Or do you think I'm good to wait for the box office to get them, at least for a little while? I know last time I saw her, the show was sold out, but I doubt it sold out 2 months in advance, but what do I know?
I recently had no choice but to succumb to the evils of Ticketmaster/Live Nation when I bought Sufjan tickets...and those DID sell out really fast....but he hasn't toured for like 948674389 years...so... I keep feeling like something needs to be done about Ticketbastard, but I don't know what I can do, other than not give the assholes my money. If I'm ever a famous musician, I will forbid TM from selling my tickets! (I actually have no idea if I would have any control over that)
A ticket to the Richmond show cost $20 PLUS $10.50 in fees to Ticketmaster. So about a third of the price goes to the seller. That's just wrong. I have to hope some of the rest of the cost goes to Joanna but I'm sure the venue has to get a cut.
I think that money prob. all goes to Ticketmaster. I imagine it's just the $20 ticket that is rationed between the venue, Joanna, her label, whatever. Sometimes TM will list a "facility fee" or whatever, so I imagine that would go to the venue....but yeah, here it woulda been an extra $14.25 on a $20 ticket (with no "facility fee" listed). That's over 70% of the face value. I just can't make myself do that. There are plenty of other online ticket services that charge $2-3 for a convenience fee, which I think is more reasonable. I'm willing to pay $2-3 for the convenience of charging it to my card and not having to pick up a phone. FYI, I would have no problem paying $34.25 if it all went to Joanna...maybe even the venue. But I can't stomach giving TM $14.25 of my hard-earned money when I barely have any to speak of anyway. In a recession, and already struggling music industry, it just disgusts me that they are getting away with this.
For anyone attending the Phoenix show it looks like we will be having a sneak listening party of the JN covers benefit project from 5:30 to 7 PM at The Lost Leaf Wine/Beer bar , - pretty close to the venue and it is sponsored by Stinkweeds Records !
You guys are the first to know of this- as it will be officially announced in a week or so
Ok...Joanna is coming to Phoenix...I already have tickets for 2...I may meet a few of you there...maybe Joanna will show up at the listening party before the show... So, why am I feeling almost no excitement about going to see her? I've been thinking about this for weeks, and I could think of nothing that would explain my near lack of enthusiasm...until just now. I don't really want to go see her in a big fancy concert hall. I want her to play on my patio! The Prize Patrol is supposed to deliver another load of BIG money on Halloween, and I'm pretty sure it's my turn. I wonder how much it would cost to book Joanna for a small, private show. Is that a little bit of excitement that I'm starting to feel? Could be.
