Hello all,
It seems a lot of you are unsure of how this whole presale thing is going to go down. While I can't provide complete solid details, I can give you an idea of what may or may not happen based on September's Roseland Ballroom presale.
First of all, saying the tickets are on sale on W.A.S.T.E is deceiving--it may lead you to think that they'll be available in one of three places: 1) the tickets section of the W.A.S.T.E. Corner Store on W.A.S.T.E. Central
2) the Tour section of W.A.S.T.E. (tab at the top of the page) or
3) the ticket sales section of the the W.A.S.T.E. shop here: http://thomyorketickets.waste.uk.com/Store/DisplayItems.html
In the case of the Roseland Ballroom shows, all three places were INCORRECT. Instead, they were available at radiohead.com/tourdates; you simply had to go there and click on the date of the concert you wanted to go, and then try and check out from there.
My recommendation would be to keep all 4 of these windows open on Wednesday morning, continually refreshing them. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they released tickets in the same way they did for Roseland, on radiohead.com/tourdates, so I'd make that a priority for checking.
Now, for the matter of what time they'll be available. I stayed up the entire night waiting for presale tickets, since I had heard that in the past they've been made available in the wee hours of the morning. However, they didn't go live until a little after 10 am EST, and unfortunately, I was unable to purchase them since I was expecting tickets to be available on one of the W.A.S.T.E. related sites, NOT radiohead.com/tourdates.
So in conclusion: make sure you check the four places I listed above and you can stay up all night if you want to (i can't confirm whether or not they'll be available at some obscure time or not), but the last presale went live at 10 am.
Happy ticket hunting!
