The Antwerp concert is sold out. And I'm looking for tickets. If you have any to spare, mail me. I can offer you 2 London tix (23/11 - row 7) or 2 Berlin tix (15/11 - row 4).
Een ramp! Het is een ramp zeg ik... :( ik kan momenteel geen Waits meer horen. Vier uur aan een stuk twee telefoons tegen m'n oren gedrukt gehad. Constant die bezettoon. ARgl! Driewerf argl! Weet niet eens of ik wel ooit in Amsterdam geraak...
Lack of dates, lack of place... three hours on the phone... 8.55-12.30... if you have any ticket left for one sorrowfull with bad luck... mail me too : Kitchee-kitchee@caramail.com I am not as angry as some, I expected it, but it is true that I am 24, and I'll be 37 by the time Waits will come back to Belgium...
same here not angry but dissapointed,it would be my first tom waits concert so if someone has a spare ticket to sell, it would be very appreciated nimfijntje@belgacom.net
Tipical Belgium compromise, Tickets were never on Sale ( Just a few hundreds ), All Staff from the theater know that......Shame is the word....profit is the result....
Watch eBay from tomorrow on, all at once there'll be plenty of Waits tickets for sale for the Antwerp show ... at TEN times the price. A SHAME, this (phone)way of selling tickets. Arseen
I started to call at 9 am with 2 cell phones and my land line and i got them at 11:40. I got 2 tickets in the balcony. The woman told me at that time that they still had 10 tickets at 99 euros.
Could each who has got tickets shut up about it? It hurts the other ones. Thanks. I feel like a preacher waving a gun around. I hope The eyebell kid will close this blog after the launch of Real Gone... Eyeball kid? Will you?
I don't know when I will close this blog. Maybe tomorrow, maybe next year, maybe never. I don't see why I should pack it in after the release of the album.
6 phones - continuous redial - and 4 main seat tickets are in - it took us 24 manhours ( thank you all ) - but he's worth every minute of it - you have to get organised to see genius at work-
I have no hopes of getting a ticket... and will be away for many of the dates... but I did ponder about one thing and was wondering about your 'take' on things:
The new album is already available on emule. I would have no qualms about downloading it as I am surely going to buy it as soon as it's out, but how would all of you possibly more-hard-core-then-me Waits' fans feel about listening to his album ahead of the official release date, if it meant downloading a possibly inferior version from emule/kazaa?
Didn't they take rather extreme anti-scalping measures to avoid it? You could only buy from within Belgium and I don't think the tickets are transferable (e.g., the person who buys them MUST be at the concert). And you could only buy two.

How do you know those were the last two??
ReplyDeleteWhat's God got to do with all this show?
Are you a The last thief of the Theater???
FYI: I am pretty sure the number of tickets for record companies, VIP's etcetera was very limited.
