Built to Spill - NYC tickets, two-day passes, more Siren pics

How can they sell so-called "2 day passes" ($60) that are the equivalent of 2 tickets to consecutive dates ($30 x 2)?

I couldn't get a single ticket for the 14th but had no problem getting a two day pass.

they must be holding a bunch of tickets to the 14th to see how the 2-day passes are selling. tickets to the 15th are still avail.

Not able to get Wednesday the 14th tickets. Sold out perhaps.

I was just able to buy 4 for Wednesday, no problem

They must have just released them, I tried for a good 20 minutes. That's so frustrating as now I have to deal with selling my Thursday part of the 'two day pass' since I only wanted to go on Wednesday.

the 2 day pass is so that people can buy tickets to both shows but only have to pay the handling fees once instead of twice. there is no savings on the ticket price but savings on the fees.

Love the band, love the live show, but fuck do they look bored.

"the 2 day pass is so that people can buy tickets to both shows but only have to pay the handling fees once instead of twice. there is no savings on the ticket price but savings on the fees."

I get my tickets from the box office. Why pay fees? So the 2 day pass is still no savings. Weird.

and $30 a ticket? goddamn...

thats the worst. its more fun to see a mediocre/crappy band play. if they're really into it and look like they're having the time of their life. like ponytail- they suck so hard but are fun to look at.

never seen BTS. 10/15 at the music hall will be my first. should be fun. and regarding the 2-day passes: do the setlists vary that much night to night that you'd go see 2 or more shows?

the siren set and the maxwell's set were almost entirely different. they used to rock very similar sets night to night but over the last several tours, they've seemed to mix it up more.

don't waste your time. just listen to an old yes album.

yes, they mix up their setlists a lot for these type of shows. saw them three nights in a row a few years ago and every night was a different set. which meant that i got to hear pretty much all my favorite songs, and that was pretty cool.
