Not sure people will be able to participate in the fanclub presale (option 1)..you need an additional access code.

Well hopefully someone with the access code will be god enough to post it on here. Share the Wealth

Acess code is tied to individual memembership and can only be used once. Otherwise I would share it!

Does this mean you need to be in REM's $10 fan club to do option one?

Yes..I believe so.

You also had to be a member of the club for about a month or so ago to qualify...

Oh God! Who cares about pre-sale. I want to be The National for a night or two. I'm sure those georgous Mexicana's behind them were in need of nerdy americano hipsters!

the presale with personalized access code is today. that's for paying fanclub members

there may be a sale tomorrow for "online fan community" which is just people who subscribed for email updates and the like.

hey national fans,

got a question -- who sings on the song 'reasonable man' from the cherry tree ep? it doesn't sound like matt to me. it sounds more like david bowie, but i'm guessing it's not him. please don't hate me. thanks

i think it sucks that James ^ has to beg people on this board to not hate on him because he asked a simple question.

James, it's Padma Newsome. I don't hate you.

@9:53 I didn't know Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka was a fan of The National

thanks, folks

cant wait

@ 1022

i really like the national, but i hate roddy piper

Superfly Snuka was a god among men.

Tickets are $90

Too much!

"those georgous Mexicana's"

The word you were grasping for is 'Chicanas', you gringo ignoramus.

death is pretty final
i'm collecting vinyl

cause if heaven does exist
with a kicking play list

Does this mean you need to be in REM's $10 fan club to do option one?
James Snuka - 9:28 AM

Yes.. I believe so.

----------------------

not at all.
pretty straightforward. just sign up.

Why Is Jones Beach cheaper then MSG?My broke ass will be sitting in the nosebleeds again.

I am sure that the whole old skool WWF likes the National.George "The Animal" Steele and King Kong Bundy will be sitting their big ass down in the front row.

pre-sale REM tix began on 4/1 at 10am, but only for eligible fan club members (a 10 dollar membership having been paid by jan. 28th to the fan club in Athens, GA, as another poster noted). a pin code was sent to members via email a few days ago, which worked to access alloted fan club tix this morning.

otherwise, the next pre-sale is suppose to start on 4/2 for those who have signed up to REM's "online community" via remhq.com.

not sure about the details for TN's and MM's tix arrangements.

anyone with info about the presale on REM's site this mornnig? i signed up on their site monday, but cant find any more info

tried and got nothing but 100 section
then went back and it was sold out

Online FC Presale sold out within seconds.

something must be wrong with the site right? no way it sold out that fast

Just keep clicking continue. I got 2 in section 36 at 10:08.

I just got tix for Jones and pretty decent seats too...center, first stadium section 7. Yeah, I know, no beer but I actually kinda like Jones...especially since its a Saturday and if its a nice beach day, make a day of it. and you can drink your beer in the car in the parking lot :)I'm pretty psyched!

I used the pre-sale and ended up with tickets on the floor which I don't want. I thought the FLOOR section would be GA and RSVD would be seats, but the tix I got are seats, and at the back. Does anyone know if there IS a GA section? Maybe I can get them during the public onsale and sell these tickets. They're pretty darn good tickets, but I don't want to be that far from the stage and I don't want to sit or even have a seat. I was right against the front barrier for Bjork at MSG. That's where I wanna be!

Just keep clicking away and tix will still show up for MSG and Jones Beach. Although i have no idea why anyone would go to MSG instead of Jones. I mean who gives a shit that you cant drink beer at your seats. The sound and atmosphere at Jones will be a million times better.

The problem with the presale was that the best seats were not available for either place. I got in right away for Jones and got row G which is great but i wanted A B or C and there was nothing for that. Hopefully the regular will have some of those.

And Anon10:14pm i dont mean to rain on your parade but have you been to Jones before. Section 7 is the third level. It is an ok seat dude.

nothing for philadelphia, even in the uppers.

Does anyone know if ticketmaster is having a presale?

MSG presale was bull shit

MSG pairs are still available in floors 9,10,11 and 12.

tickets still avail but way too far back in the floor for the price they are asking
I think i'll wait for the regular sale, I'm sure there will be at least a MSG presale soon
sucks that one has to pay 10 bucks for fanclub membership to get good seats, whay can't every band be like Radiohead??

is MSG floor just seats or will they have GA section?

guys 0 best option is to get 40 dollar seats and hopefully you can sneak down during the show. 100 bucks for floor is too much.

got a pair at MSG in section 10 way back on floor, but right off side of FOH mix which means it'll sound great.
out of curiousity went back in and wouund up with rsvd seats in section 126, 4th row.

this was at noon. just keep clicking even though it says tix not available. on the 9th or 10th i got through

Got 9R Row A at Jones Beach. Checked a few times and didn't see any Orchestra. Sucks but at least no one will be standing in front of me!

hahah for those that say presale's suck, either i have extremely good luck or you dudes are not trying hard enough.

whoever said "keep clicking 'continue'" was spot on.
i got home two hours ago (5PM EST) and at first got a RVSP Section 105 ticket. canceled that and tried for floor. clicked for a good 3 minutes and got a Section 11 ticket.

mind you, this presale started at 10am EST. practically anyone could have gotten a ticket. now it's RSVP only.

if you knew the garden well you wouldn't be so happy with your floor section 11.
people are "floor addicted", sections 5-8
and 9-12 are horrible, better sit in the 100s.

i got to see Radiohead for free in October 2003 (no seats) in Section 6. and that was easily one of greatest shows i've ever been to.
though the 50's and even the 100's are indeed good seats, your word is quite worthless to me.
