Anyone know how much tix are? Ticketweb has no info yet! :(

Friends?

Does anyone know how much the tix cost?

Beck has friends? Doesn't that kind defeat the purpose of the "solo" part in the "solo" acoustic show?

it's going to be his myspace friends.

beck has puppets as friends

$55.00 plus fees

$55??? you gotta be kidding me.

its a pretty small place...so it will probably sold out by the time you type your third question mark..

have you heard the new album? whats the deal with middle age white dudes trying to rap? it sucks....

best beck album since mutations.

Last night show was fun. The crowd was really into it. The songs from the new album sounded great live as well. But this show will be special. The acoustic tour a few years a go was amazing.

fyi, according to the myspace bulletin:

"There is a 2 ticket limit per person per order. All tickets must be picked up at will call the night of the show, and you must enter the venue immediately after retrieving your tickets.

You MUST bring a government issued photo ID and the credit card used to purchase the tickets to the door the night of the show. Tickets are non-transferable."

agreed on the sea change tour...i had 5th row seats...in front of dave grohl...

excellent show. not to mention flaming lips opening.

The Sea Changes tour was great but I was refering to the acoustic tour where it was just Beck and Smokey those shows were awesome.

is Beck middle aged ? & he's been rapping (or his version of it since his first record) did you just google Beck today ?

$55? Where did you get this info? The regular tour isn't even $55...

wait, Beck is middle age? And he just strted rapping? I hear his new song "Loser" will be a huge hit. I'm glad I've been on board since last week on this Beck guy.

$55 bones on TicketWeb right now ya dunce

yup - $55.

price x quantity = revenue.

fewer tickets represents smaller "quantity" therefore making the "price" portion go higher, to hold revenue constant or near to it.

Another fabulous economic lesson on why a smaller venue might represnt a higher ticket price.

I'll be the 8th person to point out that they will be 55$.

"Another fabulous economic lesson on why a smaller venue might represnt a higher ticket price."

Shows at Cake Shop, Delancey, Mercury Lounge and Pianos are $8.00.

but do big acts like Beck play at those places? no.

Weren't the tickets for the Theater at Madison Square Garden show about the same price ($55)?

The show is New Jersey is $35.

total revenue would be for an established act, on the road. Ceteris Paribus. Looky it up. Learn. You'll feel better.

Guess what happens when a bigger band plays the Mercury? The price goes up.

I hope the lobotomy works out for you.

is it just me, or did that literally just sell out in 10 seconds?

fuck Ticketweb.

12:01 - sold out already

Why does anyone sell throught ticketweb. Fucking piece of shit website.

If anyone has 1 ticket I'd really love if you could sell it to me.... darnit.

Got 2. What a ripoff though. It came to $130 with all the fees. Jesus Christ better make an appearance.

i got to pick 2 and check out, and as it hemmed and hawed, they sold out. bastardos.

guess who bought ticketweb?

there you go.

seriously. Ticketweb is the most worthless piece of shit ever. it crashes every time a show goes onsale. worthless.

If anyone has 1 ticket I'd really love if you could sell it to me.... darnit.

It is not sold out. Ticketweb is just a piece of shit. Keep trying and refreshing and it will work.

I too am looking for 1 extra if anyone has it.

I have been in the "Waiting Room" for 10 minutes.

Yeah, I doubt it's sold out. I got a pair and my friend got one after just waiting for a while. Ticketweb is worthless and the artists need to realize this.

worst. website. ever.

I've been in the "waiting room" at least 5 times. Then it says no tickets available. Tease.

I got my tickets at 12:15.

i got mine at 12:24. dont give up.

I just got one ticket. Woo HOO!

Beck is an asshole for using Ticketweb.

Artist don't choose the ticket provider the concert promoters and venues do. Take it up with Bowery presents.

Please someone sell me ONE ticket... e-mail me @ drtchocky@gmail.com

plz

12:39 - got tickets. Keep trying there not sold out.

i think posts saying they got tickets after the show is sold out are planted by ticketweb.

Yeah TicketWeb definitely wants to trick you into going to their site and flooding it with requests but ultimately giving you nothing.

What are you a moron? Why the hell would TicketWeb want you to go to their site for Beck tickets if it was sold out. They don't get any money for no ticket sales ya dunce.

i think posts saying they got tickets after the show is sold out are planted by ticketweb.

i'm pretty sure it's sold out - i've refreshed 100 times

who KNOWS it's sold out? They may be holding tix back, and releasing in waves to reduce traffic.

WHY GOD? WHY?

what's the capacity for this venue??

250 people

wow this is frustrating

my friend just got thru at 1:01. keep trying.

it's not even that - i frequently get the "buy tickets" screen, but when i click "add to cart" i get nothing

or clicking "checkout" gives me nothing

sooo frustrating

ahh fuck this - i'm seeing him at the Woodies anyway

"i'm seeing him at the Woodies anyway"

probably only 3 songs, and at Roseland.

This *IS* really frustrating.... seriously.. I am at work refreshing the same page over and over and nothing...

If anyone is kind enough... can't you sell me ONE ticket? please?

drtchocky@gmail.com

Jason

P.S. This is what I get... I gave away my extra TVOTR and Grizzbly Bear ticket last night for free... some lucky guy got it. But now I can;t even get one ticket... bah

"""i'm seeing him at the Woodies anyway"

what a dick thing to post - i oughta punch you in the face.

and the Woodies tickets were free, unlike these where you have to spend $55 and waste 2 hours trying to get ticketweb to work (spending 2 hours of my time equals another $100 or so dollars lost)

"i oughta punch you in the face."

Ha! Indie dorks getting all tough while being anonymous over the internet. How scary.

this is the most vicious post thread i have ever seen.

2 hours of your time is more like $13.70.

HA!

ha! just got tickets! logged on and wham-o! got 2 tickets!

going on from here, anyone know who the 'friends' are?

this is hands down the best venue ive ever been to in NYC - saw jim james from mmj there a few weeks ago and was blown away

The Sigur Ros show there was mind blowing. One of the best concerts I have ever seen.

"The Sigur Ros show there was mind blowing. One of the best concerts I have ever seen."

Wow when was that show?

They were supposed to play there but they changed it last minute to Irving Plaza. now I bet Bjork must of been fantastic to have seen there.

Has anyone made the "don't you know you're only funding scientology by buying Beck tickets" post yet?

The second SR show was supposed to be there. The first one a serveral months prior did happen.

thank you for the correction. I can only imagine how intimate that one was.

Jesus, that Beck ticket sale was shitball. I spent so much time in the goddamned 'waiting room.' Oh well, at least I got to catch up on my Good Housekeeping and Highlights back issues

Funny--no one seems to have made the "Scientology is no worse than any other religion" post yet, either.

I do believe we have a scientologist in our midst

Wait til the comments when Yusef Islam (aka Cat Stevens) plays in the states!

"Got 2. What a ripoff though. It came to $130 with all the fees. Jesus Christ better make an appearance."

Would you settle for L. Ron Hubbard?

boy, there are some liars out there.

sigur ros has NEVER played a show at the angel orensanz theatre. in may of 2001 they were supposed to play there, but that show sold out so quickly that they moved the show to irving plaza. whoever wants to debate this can show me their ticketstub for me to believe it.

and explain why its missing from this list:

"They were supposed to play there but they changed it last minute to Irving Plaza. now I bet Bjork must of been fantastic to have seen there."

are you referring to angel orensanz for bjorK? i don't recall her playing there. i saw her twice at the riverside church (as well as spiritualized there once in the bigger chapel)
and i belive 'oh sept' is correct. irving plaza was sigur ros' first NYC show. it was definitely bumped up from angel orensanz.

I saw Belle & Sebastian there on their first trip to the US...its a very cool place...but I hear its CRAZY expensive to rent or put on a show there......(hence the $55 tickets) too bad because there needs to be more places like this in the city to break up the monotony...

Jenny Lewis played there a couple of months ago and the fee was half the price of Beck.

Jenny Lewis is half as popular as Beck

actually according to my accounting dept i am only worth 38% of a beck show......

but i like to think i'm more like 50%! thanks for the complement!
