I got that email yesterday, too... I called right when I got it, thinking there was a special deal (since that's what it said)... Can't believe they oversold it... Glad to hear they're honoring pre-sale tickets first, now I'm psyched I got in on that! So, I've never even heard of this happening before, are they really gonna have to force people to switch to the Friday night show if not enough people voluntarily take them up on the offer? What a joke!

Yes, I got that a little while ago, as well... I definitely smell desperation... It is REALLY tempting, even though I've been looking forward to a nice Saturday show for months now... I was actually two seconds away from pulling the trigger on doing the exchange - but when I called my girlfriend to see what she thought, she realized she had to work on Friday night... Is it weird that I was actually kind of happy? I really didn't want to change the whole gameplan up, but I also couldn't really justify to myself not taking them up on the offer of free tickets to go to Friday's show instead... So, in a weird way, I am actually happy that there was no decision to be made... Saturday, it (still) is!

Switched my tickets - can't look a gift horse in the mouth. Tough my feeling is the Saturday night will be the better night.

So Sat, March 21 show at HOB is oversold by Artish Arena.

Does this effect the Ticketmaster tickets?

I have a extra ticket for Sat. March 21 show if anyone needs one.

That makes two groups travelling from Winnipeg to the show.
