Fantastic! Maybe his visit to the Cain's will lead to an MMJ appearance there in the not-too-distant.
Birmingham...Scosbeeeeeeeeeee.
So happy right now!! First i saw telluride and thought omg thats amazing but i could never justify the trip.. so i 'read more' i cannot believe he is coming to Madison (my home town) i never thought it was possible! Especially excited since my mke jim show was ruined by a guy screaming f u at me for my wanting to stand and dance in the balcony.

I'm sorry that happened, people suck sometimes.
I went to see the Who a few months back with my family and we were the only ones standing/dancing and this guy started yelling at us and I responded that if those 70 year olds on stage could stand/rock out for 2 1/12 hours plus, so could they. They shut up.
Anybody having any luck with the presales? I am trying to get tix for TUlsa, but when I click the link, it just takes me to my account dashboard! :angry: :angry: :angry:

This is a good point. Presales like these are pretty pointless anyhow. Kudos, grndctrl!

Spoken like a true seasoned vet! :thumbsup:
I'm with you on this thinking, but probably will still try some presales if it's a small show/hard ticket to get, just to increase my chances of scoring a ticket.
The bulk of the shows however, I'm passing on RC presales.
Hello Everyone -
We're very sorry for the glitch this morning. At log-in, the redirect has pushed you to your dashboard account instead of the event listing you were attempting to purchase. You should be able to go back to the show listing and add tickets to your cart (as your will already be logged in at that point). We currently have our team of developers addressing the issue and working towards on a solution.
Our sincerest apologies,

I've wasted so much time that I'll never get back clicking and reclicking that button to get a will call ticket that I can't get access to until the doors are already open. The only exceptions are hard to get tix and reserved seats.

In order to get the "add to cart" button, you have to call (877) GND-CTRL. They just ask for your email address, then you log out, log in, and it's fixed.

After my ranting this morning, I'm afraid if I call them and tell them who I am, they'll hang up on me. I'll just get hard tickets tomorrow.

Seems like we shouldn't need this type of super-secret, pain in the ass, mad scramble method of buying presale tix. but thanks for the info.
What the hell happened to just clicking on the tickets link? It really shouldn't be all that hard to have it working. :angry:

I caved in, I called the GC customer service and they tweaked my account so I could get access to the presale, I didn't wanna risk getting shut out of the general sale for a venue that only has a a capacity of 600.

Yeah, I'd have made that call too. I only have to battle about 1,250 other Okies to get a Cain's ticket.

I figure this is the last time I'll be seeing him / them until next spring, since the Mexican Riviera is not on my radar.
I find it annoying that ticket prices are more expensive when buying through Roll Call. For my show the prices are $5 more per ticket.
Got my ticket yesterday to see Jim in Madison! :grin: This will be my 4th Jim James show! :thumbsup:
Nashville
Milwaukee
Chicago
Madison
So will this probably follow the same format as the spring Jim James shows? I want to see him, but since I'd be driving 6 hours and already saw a show of that format (playing his album through, then adding one MMJ song/couple MoF songs/etc), I think I'd want something a bit different. Anybody have any idea?

I'd imagine they'll follow the same format. If it's me, I'd wait and see the setlists from the first couple of shows, and then decide.
Considering Jim's set at Newport, sandwiched between two stops on the AmericanaramA tour, I'd expect his shows to be the same as the spring tour setlists.
Yeah, I keep wanting to go to Birmingham to see him, but then I keep remembering that I've seen him play this show five times already and I just can't make myself buy the ticket. Maybe if I lived in B'ham, I'd already have purchased it.

However, if you go, then you could say you have seen him play this show six times. :) Worth it since he will never do this tour exact show again. DO IT! I saw him 5 times as well and it was beyond worth it. I regret not going to the 6th show I actually had tickets for. It would've been a 3 day trifecta.

Yeah, unless Jim brings Bob Weir along for the night, I don't think I'll regret not going. Five times is enough for me with this show.
