Hi do not know if the news is out but I just saw from my car a poster on 34th Street announcing the Pixies at the Hammerstein Ballroom on Dec 12-13. Ticket Sales to go on Friday Aug 13 at noon. No opening band mentioned.
Have all a good week end. Mine is done. |

they've been back together for quite some time - at least a few years sporadically playing here and there. recently put out a new album and now touring behind it. saw them last february at irving plaza. excellent show! they sound even better than they did in the eighties.

I saw MoB at the Siren festival at Coney Island a few weeks ago. They were good. |

Alienation confers freedom. Obscurity will keep you pure. Pray that you won’t be discovered young, so that you won’t be tempted to sell out early, or won’t be seduced by celebrity.

DAMMIT!
All right, that REALLY sucks. All of a sudden they added a Saturday night show? The day after I scrambled to settle for Sunday?
It's really bullshit for tickets to go on sale not only 4 months before the concert, and for $51, but before all the information is even made public. |

woo hoo- just ordered my tickets for monday night, the 13th. sorry to be so immature, but I've been reading through these posts for five months and now I finally get to see them. alright, so it's still four months away. hmm....where's my nail file?
anyone else going? |

ok.. WTF is the promotional code for the advance ticket purchase thing through CC.com?????? |

I called Hammerstein Ballroom, and no luck on avoiding ticketmaster fees- they don't even have a box office.

Opening bands and presale info are listed on Clear Channel's ticketing info page:

that's what i'd normally do, because i hate ticketmaster, but then if presale is only through ticketmaster, i have no choice or else i'm stuck with shitty seats
DAMN THE MAN!!! |

It might be best to go directly to the box office and possibly avoid extra charges. |

Posted - 08/09/2004 : 11:32:47
presale for 42 bucks, thats fuckin robbery |

Posted - 08/09/2004 : 09:52:30
i think thats a mistake too, esp b/c the Palumbo Center is in Pittsburgh but is incorrectly listed as Philadephia

nevermind. I'm guessing that it's the Palladium in Worcester, MA and it's just incorrectly listed as NYC. |

Anyone have any idea about those two NYC shows at Palladium. I've never heard of a place by that name. I think there used to be a club called that in the 70s/80s, and there's a restaurant with that name.

Now we just need final confirmation, ticket prices, and where to buy 'em. |

according to Pitchfork, the Dec. 12th show is being opened by TV on the Radio. I'll have to pay off my credit card this week so i can get tickets to all 4 shows!

I wonder how accurate they are and I wonder if the Palladium is actually in Mass. and not NY. It would make more sense.
