Hopefully we'll be getting our tickets soon for the Vic show

My order shows that it will be shipping today via ups with a conf/track#  Hopefully I can track it later today or tomorrow. :thumbsup:

Mine have not even shipped yet.  :angry: Does anyone have a phone number for GroundCTRL?

We understand it's the '90s.

So I called ground control and they have NOT shipped the tickets,  they have "yet to receive them".  They told me there is a chance they might not get them in time to mail and could be changed to will call pick up.  My question is how come the ones I ordered in the public sale came 1-week to 10 days after purchase and GC still hasn't gotten them.    What gives ?

Tater that is seriously ridiculous!..10 days out from the show, too! You think there's a point where they let people know that there's been a snaffu...Is Charlie working in their mailroom?

but come on...there's nothing sexy about poop. Nothing.  -bbill

I got basically the same answer.  I just assumed since the ship date was April 5, that they would be shipped then or else some type of notification would have been posted on the roll call website.  But that being said, if we don't get them within 3 days of the show, we need to call or email ground control who has a list of the ticket buyers I guess and we can get replacement tickets at the Vic the day of the show.  But this is kind of a bummer, because we orderd these so long ago, and I don't want to have to stress about waiting for my tickets.  :huh:

Did you guys get an email confirmation? I see that my tickets were indeed shipped last night at 2:52am??  :shocked: But I didn't get any email. Always something with Ground Control. The most frustrating fan club on the planet.  :undecided:


What time are we thinking for Matilda's?

The only email I received was directly from UPS.  Since I was expecting other items to be delivered I kind of missed it at first.  : :huh::

That is cutting close, I have to say.  Why do they torment us so?  Its all a test... We are the innovators!  They are the imitators!

After all of Jim's solo songs I'm hoping to hear him sing those words.  Does anyone know what time the doors open?  There is a contest on WXRT for a 5:30 pre show hang out with Jim.  You can go on XRT's website to enter.  Other than that, I think we should meet At Matilda's may an hour or 2 before the show?
Anyone have an opinon?  6:00 7:00?  Also, if there is a contest, I'm wondering if that means maybe roll callers can get in earlier.

Finally this week has come, I can't wait for Friday night in Milwaukee and Saturday in Chicago!
I'm stuck at a Bday party during the day this Saturday, so I'm not sure how soon I can get to the city. I haven't seen anything about when the doors open or early access for Roll Call Members.

If I had (more than) doubts before about Ground Control ticketing, this solidifies it.

There is no excuse to run a business that way (and to treat your biggest fans/clients like this).

Hmmmm...business? Is that what the young kids are calling it these days?

We have heard that Roll Call early entry is happening for two shows- Boston and one other (I emailed ground(ctrl) about Boston; can't remember the other one).  I would bring your RC laminate or membership card, just in case... assuming you want early entry.

I hope GC is paying you consultant fees, JYac!
