[philipchevron]

Hey Phillip, throw us a bone would ya', 3-17 electric factory?? Congrats on the shiten onions nod. The Killigans and DKM cd's were my tops in 08 but didn't hear the Radiators.

The Philadelphia show, assuming it takes place, is likely to be on 3-13, not 3-17.

I have kind-of a silly question, but first I'll lay the ground work. When I bought my tickets using the pre-sale I was so damn excited that I typed my email address wrong so I never got a confirmation email. Although, I know I bought them because I have the charge for it in on my bank account records. Any who my question is when should my tickets arrive? I thought it may have said a week before the show, but my memory of day is a haze of pure joy!

All I know is I've got ticket, but I want to be reassured that they will get here before I fly off to Baltimore.

I have bought pre-sale 3 times now and they always arrived at least 2 or 3 weeks before the shows. Watch your mail carefully as the envelopes are not clearly marked for obvious reasons. They almost look like junk mail.

Thanks you are all so helpful! I can finally rest easy.

My 5 and 6 year old girls are very excited to see their first Pogues show. Jamaica's favorite song is Fiesta and Seattle's favorite song is Dirty Old Town. They will be in the front row in Boston stage left. I told them that if they don't hear those songs it will all be Philip's fault.

For questions about Artist Arena's practices, their email is info@artistarena.com and their phone number is 212-420-8500.

I had this info before but never thought to use it. Shall do. But I'm reassured that people have gotten their tickets 2-3 weeks early.

Aw, cute. Let's hope there will be pictures.

I'm finally stumbling out of the shadows ... one boring workday in Dec 2005 I discovered this lovely site & have been hyperventilating at this time of year ever since. Sadly, I don't always remember to check in time for the presales. But in 2006 I went to the 1st DC show & ended up in the front row w/someone's extra ticket the next night. In 2007 I trudged through the Philly blizzard. And in October, I not only begged one sister to bump up a trip to visit our other sister in Seattle but dragged them along to the show as well (which they loved, cos I come from a smart family). There are much longer stories here but I need my income & vacation time ... so at another time, & in another forum, I think.

But it's ridiculous to not say thanks, because w/o knowing a cheap place to stay in DC, I never would've even gone to the first show. So I must especially thank Sheva, cos I still remember she posted the info about the hostel, where I will be again if I get lucky tomorrow (& I'll come down a day early just in case).

And Mr. C, you're one of the classiest 'public' people I've ever seen, so add me to the list of people who's been wishing you the best. Thanks guys.
