Worth a shot, anyway. I'm not so much volunteering to run the list, but hopefully someone will ... I guess I'm basically just trying to plant the idea in someone's head since it could help some people out. I realize this can't be quite the same as the Winnipeg list, since of course we didn't have time to get organized beforehand and sign a blood pact to get the maximum we could get in order to share with everyone else and in return everyone else would do the same ... but hopefully it won't end up sad and desolate like the Vancouver list, either.
As for me, I have my tickets (knock on wood), and I'm not sure if I will have extras or not. I've already semi-committed to a couple fb.net members in the event that I do end up with some.
So anyway...
Need tickets
----------
?????? (how many?)
Have extras
----------
?????? (how many?)
Someone take it from here.... |

Ready to sign the bloodpact now, your honor...

i'm going to try and hook up as many people as i possibly can from fb.net, i've got a pretty good idea of who currently needs tickets, so please do not email me out of the blue requesting tickets.
i WILL have extras, i will have a pretty good handful of extras, how many, at this point, i cannot currently say.
LoganZ, Spleen, marbleslinger, you 3 are all first on my list for extras going to fb.net members currently. |

I could use 2 tickets to minny if someone has extras. I missed out totally on this :(
Also, if I am lucky enough to get tickets to Minny I could share my ride from Minny back to Winnipeg if anyone is going to the Wpg show too

I could use 2 tickets to Mpls...however I am going to Winnipeg also, so I'd rather people that don't have tickets for anything yet to get first shot at them.
I'm a fsh with no i's. |

| I am going to have four tickets to Minn. I live in Idaho and am currently looking for ways to get out there for this show. i have family that lives in the area, but i am trying to find a reasonable way to get out there. fares from spokane to minneapolis are insane, i dont know why. if i end up going, i will more than likely use two tickets, but maybe one, leaving 2-3 extras. if anyone is interested in purchasing extras e-mail me at chris_td@hotmail.com subject TICKETS. if this indeed ends up being their first show i definitely would like to be there. i also like the size of the venue, but ill see what happens. in the mean time email me with any questions. |

I can't believe I missed the sale in my own city. Chris, disregard the travel info in my email....wrong state oops. Your right airfare from idaho is insane. Greyhound is still expensive but looks like half the price.
Looking for 1-2 tickets.
Struck out on tickets for every show so far.

solace - thanks so much for throwing my request of "2" on your list. i don't have any tickets to winnipeg or any other show at this point, and since i live in minneapolis...well, let's just say that i relate to logan's ulcer.
any help is incredible. thanks you guys!! |

I don't know how I missed this. I live in Minneapolis and I usually know about this stuff.
I need at least one ticket. I could use 3 or 4 but beggars can't be choosers.
I'd list a bribe here, but that seems weird. I would feel obligated to do something really nice for anybody that can get me a ticket(s).

| Check FB.net every day for news, but a little too late to I realize that the forums have the super up to date info. Oh well. If there are any extra tickets out there for Minneapolis, I would certainly be interested in one. |

In solace's defense, this is not the "let's all ask solace to sell us tickets" thread. I say that carefully, because I don't want to scare anyone away and I (like everyone else) knows it's okay to feel desperate -- it's the Pixies after all -- but hopefully we'll get a decent list of sellers and not an overwhelming list of buyers, and once that's taken care of someone will divvy out what's available. Some will get some from Solace, some hopefully from others, but let's get an idea of what we're up against first.
Again, no offense intended, just wanna avoid chaos here... |

| And in case it helps anyone, just remember that Winnipeg tickets might be a tiny bit easier to come by these days ... I'm guessing somewhat of a price drop on eBay, and maybe also some availability on this forum, although both remain to be seen so early in the game. |

Yeah, I could use probably 2 to 4 tickets if anyone could help me out. I don't have tickets for any show yet and this is the closest to me, 10 hours away, so I could use these. thanks

| If anybody has 1 or 2 tickets to the Minneapolis show, let me know. Today I went from complete elation when I found out the Pixies were playing in my hometown to complete devistation when I found out it sold out yesterday. I beg of any kind soul if you have any extra tickets please contact me at c_jennissen@hotmail.com |

hey solace!! your awesome, thanx for recognizing and having me on your list, i was really excited when i saw your post, but the more i think about it, ive given up any attachment i had to the "importance" of seeing the first show, so i think im gonna stick with the winnipeg to vanocuver leg!!
so solace, thank you, thank you so much!!! for considering me for an extra, and if minneapolis was a little less of a drive from winnipeg id be down, but since im comin from the west coast, im gonna let you get that extra go to another fan from the forum.....
but i still want your saskatewan tix!!!!!!!
AND i will tentatively have 2-4 extras for winnipeg that i only want to give out to people in person outside the show, i will be in winnipeg the day before the show, and i will only ask face value, or even consider trade or something for these tickets, i dont want to make profit and only want real fans inside!!!
see everybody in the peg!!!

| Hey Marble ... if you ever want to reconsider your "in person only" sale preference I think the Winnipeg buy/sell thread is pretty reliable as far as getting to the real fans, and I think you will get to meet us all in person regardless... |

well heres the thing, normally i would throw me extra peg tickets in the mix, but as most of you probably read my posts on getting these peg tickets off ebay, i had some slight speculation that there was SOME chance that the seller i got the tix from was re-selling the same seats, i was told by ticketmaster id pretty much get a refund if my tickets dont get me in, but i would feel bad if i sold someone my extras and they made plans for the show, and then for some reason things didnt work out for them, know what i mean?!
so i figured someone at the venue who doesnt have a ticket could just use my tickets, and if the odd chance happened that it didnt work out, it wouldnt be such a big deal considering they didnt have the pre-meditated idea that they had a ticket in the first place...
i paid 90$cnd per ticket for 4 tickets to the winnipeg show. Since my ebay transaction, a good friend of mine's mothers friend in the peg had some connections and hooked me up with two special held back tickets only released to promoters and such people, so now im set, and have these 4 ticketfast ebay tickets that i wish i never bought, but oh well, im going to the show, so i dont care, i just want to see the band!!!

I'd kill for at least ONE ticket for Mpls. but I'm willing to pay mucho mucho extra for a pair...someone hook me up, pleeeeeeease! this would be my first time seeing anything Pixies-related live, and there's nowhere else on this tour I'd be able to make it out to.

I just signed on this morning and haven't been able to sign on for the last couple days and look what happens!!! I am going to need one ticket to this show no matter what. If somebody else in the Minneapolis area is feeling generous enough, please let me know. I have connections at First Ave and am able to get tickets to anything there, so I'd be more than happy to help anybody get tickets for any band that comes through there. Dear god, I had no idea this was happening. Thanks so much.

Prozacrat --
I know what you're feeling. I got home the day this happened and went poopy in my pants. Then I got heartburn and had to eat a whole thing of TUMS. Still working on getting tickets myself...

hi everyone,
does ANYONE other than solace have extra tickets to this show??? If this is hopeless, I'm going to have to look into other options. (Although I don't know what those options are, not even ebay has tickets to this thing)
Thanks. |

Couple more tickets have popped up on ebay, but tickets to this show are the most expensive I have ever seen. It could be that some people just bought tickets thinking this is the first show, and may give them up if another one is announced? I wouldn't give up hope just yet...

I might have one or two extras. But that's not certain -- I'm just posting to say it's not completely hopeless that someone might get a ticket from me. I'm taking care of Logan and porkbone first, although they might have other sources. Beyond that, between me and solace there should be a few.
I sure as hell hope there are others. The more I read about these yahoos holding onto their tickets just because they happened to be listening to Drive 105 at the right time and now they won't give them up only because they know how sought after they are ... I don't know, I'm just that more pissed that Drive 105 didn't have their shit together and that link was wrong for like ten minutes. A couple friends gave up because of that, and those extras would be going to fb.net. And more than likely, it would have been the yahoos missing out on tickets, not you guys.
Really, the Pixies are way too cool for Drive 105 ... this should have been announced on Radio K. The tickets would have been much more likely to fall into the hands of the real fans. Granted, though, Radio K is a non-commercial station. Not that I'm completely sure what difference that should have made. |

| The "other secret shows" plan, unfortunately, doesn't help the people from far away who need to make plans. If the Star Tribune story is right, there might not be any shows before Minneapolis. If Cult of Frank's information is right, any other secret shows won't be announced until the first week of April at the earliest. People travelling need more time than that to make plans. |

Personally, if I lived far away I wouldn't be making any plans to go to Mpls because it might be the first show. I sort of doubt it... why would this be the first show? It seems goofy to me. Now, if I lived within driving distance, well then there's something you can drop your hat and take off at the last minute for. I think it is important to remember how unbelievable it is to see the Pixies in concert, period.
I can say now I have come to terms with the idea that when I see them, it might be their second or third show.
