But it's only $37-$62! Even with Ticketmaster, it'll still be just a little over $100 apiece!

when ticketmaster says "tickets on sale at 10am" that means 9:00 am for us. i just checked at 9:25 a.m. and they're already sold out. d'oh! guess i won't be able to collect my fantastic ebay profits now.

They added a second date, it's like the day before. And I checked at 9:30, and there's still cheap seats left. Why aren't they playing ampitheaters???

ah, thanks for the info--i didn't notice that when i first looked on there. i went ahead and got a pair of tickets ($90!) -- i'll probably let my sis buy one of them (minus my imagined exorbitant ebay profit) and heck, i might end up going too. thank goodness for credit cards.

I think I have 2 extra tickets for the 14th show, as a result of an online ordering mishap. So, if anyone needs them, let me know (in the $37 plus charges area)

I just got through listening to last night's show, and it was awesome!!!! Even though it took me 5 hours to download it. They sound like they never stopped. When they kicked into the first song (bone machine) the crowd went ape-shit!!

A large menacing birdie told me that efforts are being made to get the Pixies onboard for this year's Uptown Mix. The Flaming Lips were a HUGE draw last year (and Wilco before that) and I'd think the organizers would be in agreement that this would probably be the biggest show in the history of the Mix. We will see if it happens. Either way, I'm going to be in Hotlanta in October!

Why do that when they can get the North Mississppi All-Stars to play for the 4th year in a row?

That would be out of control, if you ask me. While it's true that they've had some big shows there before, the Pixies would be TOO big for that setup. They'd have to shut down Division Street and probably Grand Ave and 19th Ave, too, if they wanted to have a show that big.
