POGUES - North America, March 2009

[Cdn Steve]

I know it's way early, but is there any speculation on who will be the opening band/bands on this tour?

We just got final confirmation on the opening acts for the December shows. Don't get greedy!

JUst like Christmas - you don't want to open up the presents all at once - savour each individual bit of information, enjoy the tingling anticipation as all is slooooowly revealed.....

Hehehe, I know I know. I'm just pumped to finally get a chance to see them live! Been waiting a couple years.

Supposedly there was a delay with the processing of the Boston show pre-sale. It might be up at 3 or it may be delayed by an hour or more. Keep an eye out.

Well, any chance of Colorado to West Coast tour in Spring 2009?

There are currently no announced plans for a West Coast tour. When the West Coast HAS been toured in the last several years it has been a Fall tour.

DZM Any update on the Boston pre-sale? Tickets are now on sale. Boston not listed.

OK, at the risk of being labeled an ingrate, can someone explain what is happening with Boston? It was clear yesterday that Boston wasn't listed, yet
there has been no info forthcoming. Now it is past 3PM with no info. Since most on the US East Coast are at work, it is very hard to keep monitoring
the ticket site to see if there has been an update. One of my "Pogues Group" is trying to buy tickets today, needs to leave for a flight at 4PM, so it looks
like he is out of luck. Thanks for letting me vent and as always info is greatly appreciated.

Soon I hope it is killing me

Ordered my tix for the 12th in NYC.

oh yeah. pogues 2009.

This may be presumptuous on my part, but I feel like it should clearly state before you try to buy the tickets that you can only use Visa/Mastercard. I used to only have an AMEX, and well, I would have been screwed.

I'm afraid I'm just a conduit and not at all involved in all those behind-the-scenes machinations. I have no idea why Boston isn't listed, or if/when it will be.

[meowhouse]

Wow that was fairly easy. Except I wish they'd put Boston up.

Atlanta, NYC, NYC, one to go. I don't think I'll make DC.

Got a NY ticket, now also awaiting Boston...

Edit: I mean...WHOOHOOOO got a NY ticket!

Thanks DzM, not looking for blame, just some straightforward answer. If the whole purpose of a pre-sale is to reward the most loyal fans, the Boston pre-sale
should be rescheduled. I realize the you (or Mr. Chevron or Mr. Stacy) aren't responsible for this, but maybe our pleas won't go unheard if sent through you.

I don't know how long to sit here refreshing.

can't believe the ticket price/service charge rose almost 8-10 dollars from last time. i think i'm gonna have to wait awhile to get tickets, i can't afford that right now..
