Nope, I just had to go with 2 non-poster tickets. I wonder if it was a screwup on WU's end?

[corey3815]

Sigh. Maybe they'll be nice and hook us up when we get there. I got several of the Evil Urges signed posters a few years ago at a soundcheck event.

Same here... got 2 non-poster tickets.  I was able to select poster package, but when clicked add to basket, it said sold out... right at 10AM.  Maybe just super high demand?

i shot an email over to WU about it, and here's what they responded with (very quickly, I might add):

"Yes, it looks like the packages with the poster have already sold out. Sometimes limited packages such as these can sell out extraordinarily quickly.

Luckily, there are still packages available without the poster. "

Oh well, the signed part is nice, but not necessary for me.  I just hate carrying my poster through the show.  I will probably just avoid buying one at the show, and try to acquire one after the show.

Something doesn't add up..... there are still signed posters available for every other show (many of which have way higher demand like MPP).  Maybe the band is signing after the Pittsburgh show so there were actually none available.  Or the poster isn't ready yet.

[corey3815]

Agreed. Something doesn't add up. There's no way they actually sold out of those posters in less than 30 seconds...

Guess we'll find out on Thursday.

scroll  a tiny bit and click "OK."  make sure you go all the way thru the steps until you get a confirmation number.  keep going after it says "success"

I was able to buy two VIP with poster tickets for Minneapolis.  Not a single hangup with WU's system.  The stars must be in perfect alignment for there to be zero issues the WU purchase process.

Minneapolis Soundcheck secured. I attended the Somerset Soundcheck in 2012, opened with Strangulation...mind blowing. I'm wondering if it's still a +1 event? I haven't seen that info anywhere.

[crooney]

figured it out....bonehead!!!  cost me the poster.  eff!!!

See you there.  If two people need admittance, you need to have two concert tickets and two VIP tickets.

[JDUB]

My next question is when does Will Call open for the individual venues? If the soundcheck is in the middle of the afternoon, my guess is that will call isn't open yet, meaning there's no way to have tickets in hand.

[nhowe02]

Damn. I bought 1 VIP ticket thinking it was still +1. That sucks. oh well still will be a great experience.

I got a ticket with poster for PITT!!

I'm guessing it might also have to do with how many posters are made for each show.   That number varies widely night to night, for reasons I don't understand.   But if, say, they only made 100 of the Pitt poster, they might only allow 25 for sound check, but if they make 350 for another venue, that's a lot more.
