Chicago Theatre - Chicago, IL (June 9th, 10th, & 11th) Roll Call

[dennydew]

how do I find out if i am still a member of roll call, without having to rejoin????

[js2231]

Does anyone have a sense of how big the Roll Call allotment of tickets is? Trying to decide if I want to re-register my membership. I can't afford the $40 Deluxe right now, will there be pre-sale tickets left for the 10:30 window, or would I probably have better luck right with the public on-sale?

[CHIMMJFAN]

Hoping for no repeats but happy with whatever!

Honestly, your guess as is good as any of ours.  It's always a mystery.  Ive seen the best seats go through roll call and i've seen better seats released after roll call. 

Right now, my biggest concern is whether there will be the option of a 3 day ticket (in the same seat) or if I'll just have to be quick with my ordering to get all 3 nights in good spots.  And if there is no 3 day option, do i need to open up three different roll call windows at once or can i just select all three nights and have three sets of seats shown to me? 

I'm sure this info will come to light soon enough.

damn, y'all get Hiss Golden Messenger opener too.

I was thinking we have to open up three separate Roll Call Windows (4 for me at the same time if I'm trying to get Milwaukee tickets, although that show might be GA). And I couldn't remember if you were able to purchase 2 tix or 4 tix per order through Roll Call?

If I can find decent flights and hotel I might pull the trigger...  Or I start playing the lottery...

Well that definitely helps if its GA, I don't think that will sell out right away in Milwaukee.

In the past, Roll Call pre-sale tickets would get you "early entry" to the Riverside - you'd be able to have access to the stage pit area, get up close and have Jim sweat on you.

Otherwise the Riverside is GA.

This is shaping up to be  JacketFest Midwest 2015 

I like the sound of that,and hope to add my name to the list Monday or at the latest after the General sale. Fingers crossed for some luck with the onsales.

Back when they played here in 2008, they had a pit area from what I recall, and the rest was reserved seating.

The Chicago Theatre has a pit, but the pit is reserved seating.

I have never been to a show at The Chicago Theatre that has had a general admission pit--and that includes the MMJ shows back in 08 or whenever it was.
