Yes!!!!I managed to guess the password on the ticketwest website and got pre-sale tickets for the 7/25 show for my husband and I. Has anyone here already seen them? Thoughts?

I have the cd and dig it. Several standout tracks, of course Steady as she Goes will take up residence in your head for awhile. Great stuff though.

Sweet! So far I am digging them too. Show is 7/25, so I will give a review afterwards. AOL currently has a podcast interview with them if anyone wants to check it out.

For those Raconteurs fans in Boston and Jersey, check it out:

9/24 Atlantic City - House of Blues
9/28 Boston - Orpheum Theatre

Both presales start tomorrow (Tuesday, June 13th) at noon Eastern Time.

You can access the presale [url=http://www.musictoday.com/redirect/bounce.asp?cid=16473]here.[/url]
The password is: brokenboy

Just thought you would be interested. I'm seeing the band at the Tabernacle in Atlanta on September 19th - anyone else going to be there?

I like the album. Steady As She Goes is probably the most catchy song I've heard in a while. I just cannot get it out of my head!

I am kinda pissed. I didn't get an email from their fan site as promised. I don't think it was filtered out by my spam filter. So, I missed the tickets going on sale because I was counting on the presale ticket info from them. Now tickets are $89 bucks at least and I am thinking unless I find some at face value I am not going to pay the stupid ebay/scalper fees.

i never got the email either but a few weeks ago they did send me a bunch of buttons and promo stuff in the mail, much to my surprise and delight. i have tickets to the orlando show but i'm not that impressed with the album. those guys are better in their own bands than as a unit.


i hate anyone who doesn't like me.

well, d, they must like you a lot more than me :) That's cool you got that stuff. :)

I will prob go the day of the show to see if I can get a ticket at face value. But now I am a little ticked about not getting the email about the presale or even the regular sale.
