To everyone buying Austin tickets on Saturday

To everyone who is planning on trying to buy tickets for the Austin show on Saturday I just saw something interesting on the Texas Box Office site, it states:

 

"Please use this link to purchase floor and select arena sections closest to the stage. These tickets will be restricted to night of show will call only."

 

It appears there is a seperate link to buy tickets for the floor and lower level arena sections as opposed to the rest of the mid/upper level arena. You can still get these tickets from the general ticketing page, but who knows, this might help? I just thought everyone who was trying to buy tickets might like to know this/possibly keep both of these pages open on Saturday to optimize their chance of getting tickets. Good luck everyone!

Jimi Hendrix Writes To His Dad.

11010905091?profile=original
 
 
Letters Of Note just released a touching little correspondence from rock legend Jimi Hendrix to his father Al Hendrix back in Seattle, Washington. Now, although this site usually stays more current, I couldn't help but be moved by the gravity of emotion that seems quite clear despite a lack of depth. It could be Jimi's yearning for approval, or the humbleness he was often known for.
 Not sure.
The postcard was written in October of 66' from Munich, Germany only two months before 'Hey Joe' would be released. 'Are You Experienced?' dropped shortly after--and eventually as we all know, would go on to be one of the greatest rock albums of all time.
Check out the postcard below:

TRANSCRIPT:
Dear Dad –
Well...Although I lost the address, I feel I must write before I get too far away – We're in Munich, Germany now – We just left Paris and Nancy France – We're playing around London now. That's where I'm staying these days. I have my own group and will have a record out about 2 months named "Hey Joe" By the Jimi Hendrix EXPERIENCE

I hope you get this card – I'll write a decent letter – I think things are getting a little Better –
Your loving son,
Jimi


Certainly a touching little piece of rock history and family love...

Radiohead Hits The Road - 2012 Tour

 

 

11010904883?profile=original

If you were one of the unlucky ones [like me] who got locked out of their most recent two-day stint at Roseland Ballroom back in September, I empathize with you...

But look!

On the horizon hope lingers! Radiohead has just announced their largest tour since 2008, with dates and cities [and countries] spanning 10 months beginning in February 2012. No mention yet of a return to NY, but I imagine its still a possibility [especially given the rumor that they were supposed to play Occupy Wall St]..
The band has been recently promoting their highly enjoyable and totally necessary remix album of The King Of Limbs and we can expect that their will be some interesting live renditions with all that time spent on the road.

Tickets go on sale beginning Nov. 12 (excepting the Feb. 29 date in Tampa, FL, which will go on sale Nov. 19), with a four-ticket limit per person. The W.A.S.T.E. fan presale will begin Nov. 9 [today].
Don't blame Ticketmaster if for any issues...They can go to hell!

Be Careful With Ticketmaster Refresh

For those people trying to buy tickets this weekend, I wanted to give you a piece of advice. This past summer I was trying to purchase tickets to another show via the Ticketmaster website. I have had an account with them for years and purchased many tickets this way. For this particular show, I started refreshing my browser over and over at about 5 minutes until the tickets were supposed to be released. Well, apparently Ticketmaster has implemented some sort of blocking mechanism for automated programs, and it thought that I was one of those.

Here's the exact text that I got in response to a customer service request (2 days after the sale began).

 

We're sorry you were temporarily blocked while trying to buy tickets on Ticketmaster.com. Blame the bots!

You see, automated programs (or "bots") constantly hit Refresh when some onsales start, which ties up our system and blocks you (the real live fan) from getting tickets. When that happens, we block them.

Unfortunately, we can't tell bots from human beings so sometimes fans who refresh too frequently get blocked - for about 24 hours.

In the future, please wait 2-3 seconds between each refresh when trying to buy tickets. That way only the bots get blocked.

If you need anything else, we're always here for you - just hit reply and ask us or visit Ticketmaster.com.

Thanks for being a fan!

Sincerely,

Ticketmaster Fan Support

"Fraud Prevention"

My debit/credit card was denied after putting all of the information in to get the presale tickets this morning.  Hours later I get a call from my bank (Wells Fargo used to be Wachovia) and they were asking me about my transaction and that it was denied because of possible fraud.  It was mainly because the website is from the UK  and they consider the transaction as something unusual that "I" would do! Fucking bastards! that was the last thing on my mind!! That the fucking bank was gonna screw me over. It is such a stupid fucking policy because they are categorizing people according to their account activity and not as to what was being purchase which were tickets to a concert in the US, in which I had given all of my personal information, so there shouldn't have been any doubt that it was me making the transaction.  Fuck is my fucking money and I am gonna use it as I like to, and these bastards with their idiotic system of fraud prevention...so pissed.
