What happened to the Modest Mouse tickets?
They went from unavailable to sold out.
Did any of the fine citizens of Halifax get any or is ticketmaster “remarketing” all of them?

I know! I am pissed. I want to know what is going on too!
When are bands going to stop letting ticket master piss off fans this way?
Probably when they stop cashing the cheques from all of those sold-out shows, suckers.
WTF THEY ARE SOLD OUT!! I just found out I could go today..oman..I’m fucking pissed right now.
Unfortunately that’s the way it goes. Try third party ticket vendors. They’re the online equivalent of street scalpers but you may get tickets that way.
noooooooooooooooooo
That’s the plan broc….or a window..
Think this is bad? Try larger markets. In TO and Vancouver, it’s worse. Actually in BC, there is legislation in the works that would see the practice of ticket sellers basically scalping their own tickets, end.
I reward the artists by not attending. Fuck ’em.
booo-urns.
The band had a presale a few days before they really went on sale, so I’m assuming most of them went then.
Woot! Woot! I heart Modest Mouse!
I got mine.
alot of people have been writing the company askign if they will do another show
fingers crossed people…
What kind of music do they play?
Its …………………wait for it……………….wait for it…..
CHEESEY!!!
OMG I could not help myself…
I am so incorrigible!!! 😉
I went to the Forum box office at 12:00 won Saturday hen it opened and there were about five other people there. I was in and out in about 3 minutes.
For the record, I’m pretty sure it’s Ticket Pro who is brokering the tickets, not Ticketmaster.
I’m not a big fan myself but the song Float on is pretty sweet!
youtube it!!!
huh?
Yeah, Jennie’s right, it’s Ticket Pro. I got mine at Duly Noted around 4:00 the day they went on sale. I had to work until 3:00 and I didn’t know if I’d even get any. Happy!
Jane, check out the Ben Lee version of Float On.
ooooo i enjoyed that very much!
