I've never seen a show advertised there (except New Years Eve) that cost more than $50. I saw Foo Fighters there 8 years ago and it was only $25.

That makes sense, but a benefit show is a little different.

Yeah, I got Them Crooked Vultures tickets for Lollapalooza weekend a couple years ago, and the website crashed almost instantly. I can't believe I actually made it through.

I got to the point where I entered the "I'm not a robot" code, and then I got a "Network not available" message

I would keep trying until 15 or 20 minutes after the sale started. People always end up cancelling their transaction, or having their card declined, so sometimes tickets open up late.

EDIT: Guess not, looks like they are all officially gone.

I'm keeping an eye on it. The current message is "Tickets not currently available". I'm not holding my breath.

If you're actually in, good luck. But I don't think there's anything left.

I was on the rail at this show (Metro), by the way. Had a girl call me the day of and offer a ticket. She told me to meet her there a few hours early. I figure we were picking up tickets and grabbing drinks before the show. No...didn't realize it was GA, and we would be waiting in line outside the venue for three hours. It was worth it, being 10" away from these guys. Awesome show. She was also cool enough to let me duck out of the line to the Full Shilling to watch Cardinals/Marlins (I believe...might need a fact checker on this).

/end my second JORR moment in two days

I saw them at the Metro about 10 years ago in October 2002 for the release of One By One. Great show.

Maybe, but those guys are not wanting for money. Wonder if Grohl will tour with them to given the Foo hiatus.
