Nat Geo Music, the music division of National Geographic Entertainment, will Webcast an open-air Náttúra concert live from Iceland on Saturday, June 28, 2008. Two of the world's most important and visionary musical entities, Björk and Sigur Rós, will headline the free concert.Tickets for the two upcoming Sigur Ros shows in NYC are on sale.The event will be available exclusively at worldmusic.nationalgeographic.com from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. ET (begins at 8 p.m. BST/London or 7 p.m. GMT/Reykjavik).

I'd love to know where my pre-sale seats are actually located.

Orch Row J (right center)....never been to this venue (I live in Philly) but I assume these tickets are pretty amazing, yeah? What's this venue like? It looks like it will be a great place to see Sigur Ros.

Oh look, Dan Deacon will be at the CitySol event tomorrow. http://www.citysol.org/ - I dont see it mentioned on the free events, but I guess maybe its not?

is that true bv? re city sol w dan deacon? that'd be bomb.
Posted by Anonymous | June 27, 2008 11:34 AM
i'd like to know too. for 60 bucks, the least they can fucking do is tell us where we are sitting.
Posted by misterdisco | June 27, 2008 11:42 AM
people from Iceland hate complaining...esp. Jonsi
I'm sure your pre-sale seats are good...OK!
Posted by Anonymous | June 27, 2008 11:55 AM
11:34 - here's hoping. but i also worry that they could have just said "first 3 rows go to presale" and i'll be in seat 1, all the way on the left, staring at a curtain.

"2004? try 2000 or even 1997."

Was everyone charged the same amount for pre-sale tickets or did it vary from city to city, because mine only amounted to $49 (Boston.)
Posted by Anonymous | June 27, 2008 1:13 PM
although i dont have the tickets in hand yet obviously, i got a pair for row LL on the side of the stage (100# seats). my friend also ended up getting tickets and since we both dont need them, i'd sell mine at face - just want to drum up preinterest...

For the comment asking what seats they get during presale: I've bought through KIlink in the past and on my second time I got front row tickets for the Beacon. They are always very good with giving fans the best seats in the house during the presale

I have never been disapointed with seats at the palace. I realize that orchestra DD is better than my seats in the balcony, but the theater is gorgeous and the sound is good and the balcony is still not really that high up.
Posted by Zatzbatz | June 27, 2008 2:42 PM
i think both dates are sold out now!
Posted by Anonymous | June 27, 2008 3:11 PM
Are the general admission tix better or in front of the orchestra tix?

NY Mag says the United Palace shows will just be the 4 immediate members of SR performing. That seems unpossible. Any idea what on Earf's up with that?
