Anyone know when the Toronto show goes on sale or if it is already where to get tickets?
I didn't buy them from the bands site cause shipping to Canada was $15!
holy cow...15 dollars is alot just for shipping.
Yeah, Canada's expensive.
sideroad, I might actually go to the venue or to a music store that sells tickets myself to pick them up. If I do, I'll letcha know and I'll pick some up for you, too. :)

I've been checking for a few weeks and the MMJ direct ticketing says they're not available thru them...interestingly the Guvernment site has yet to list this show, and Ticketmaster Canada has no info either...I'll be closely watching this post to see where to get them...

AND there's still no opening band... It's all very mysteeeeerious, eh? ;)
Regarding Toronto tickets...
No luck on the MMJ web site or TicketMaster. They (TM)said it was too early to be posted and sold for the Oct 19 show. Also the TicketMaster operator said they do not sell for shows at the Guvernment.? That info should be incorrect because I've seen shows there before and purchased tickets thru ticketmaster.
Then I phoned the Guvernment and they had no knowledge of the show (416 869 0045), but said not all shows announced on band web site keep up with their announcements. That being said, when it is announced and I get tickets I'll pass the info on to anyone.
Thanks and good luck to ticket seekers.
Suggestion for open act Richmond Fontaine, Great Lake Swimmers, the Skydiggers would fit the bill nicely.
Whuuut? Really?
This is tremendously strange. hm.
Quotephoned the Guvernment and they had no knowledge of the show
Very odd, considering someone with MMJ must have booked the show for them...
Maybe the Hip will open for them ;)...

Oh god that would suck so bad.
In my head, they're just going to play for seven hours. And all will be right in the world. :)
We have to sort this shit out, dudes!
So, I thought that Kathleen Edwards was going to be playing in Toronto, and that, I don't know, whatever I thought.
But she isn't. She's playing in Buffalo that night. (I just checked her website - she said nice things about My Morning Jacket being gentlemen, too. :))
So, huh.
Maybe it WILL be a 7 hour set!! ;D
Tickets are on Sale through Ticket master on Sept 15, You can purchase through the MMJ website early tickets on Sept 12. I only know this as I emailed to find tickets from the " Contact US" from the MMJ website and was responded to by email.
I cant WAIT, I am SO SO EXCITED!!!!!!
TRACY
Terrific! Thanks for posting, Tracy.
Now, if you out of towners need help getting tickets, please pm me.
I wonder if the tickets through the band will still have the high shipping.
They were up for sale with all the other tickets intially but not now. so another curious thing.
I think i will wait for ticketmaster unless we hear otherwise.
sweet. i'm gonna be in toronto for this week and was recently looking for something to do when i came across this show. are the shows selling out quick? should i be near a comp when they go on sale? looking forward to this one.
TO tickets are not available as yet... I called Rotate This yesterday and the dude said that there weren't selling tickets, yet. So I said "yet, as in, you know about this?" And he said, "Well sure I know about it, everybody's talking about this show." :)
But then I said "So, what's the deal?" And he said he didn't know, and there's still no info on the Guvernment website.
So that's all I know. :)
But it seems like this might be a seller outer possibly. I know that I have about a million people going.
Still no word. Not even at ticketmaster. humph.
MMJ finally up on the Guvernment site...
http://theguvernment.com/
Says Sept 16th for tickets thru Ticketma$ter...anyone know if preorder here on this site will be available...I thought someone had mentioned that happening today but the link is unchanged...
Well, you can also get them at a couple of the record stores. That's how I like to do it...
That's good news. I was startin' to worry a bit... :)
Just read the press release. Am I crazy? Did they play Glastonbury this year? I thought that was last year...
Maybe I'm on crack.
Still no mention of an opener. I actually don't want them to announce an opener, in a way... I really really kind of hope it's all them. Mmmmmmm. A big long rock session.
Man it sucks that it is 19+. A bunch of my friends are going to be mad...
But I'm old so it won't matter to me.
Most shows there are all ages wonder why this one isn't?

I heard there's gonna be topless Go-Go girls on stage.
Too much too handle for the kids I guess :o
topless you say?
wow guess i might have to rethink inviting my mom to this show...
HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Really, most shows at the Guvernment are all ages? I didn't think that was legal in a nightclub... (I haven't been there for ages, though...)
Well all the shows at the Guvernment I've been to have been all ages (ok its only been about 2 shows). But also every show I've been to at the Koolhaus which is in the same complex, has been all ages, and I've been to countless shows there, about four this year alone.
So it seems odd to me. And fans of all ages should be allowed to experience the jacket.
Wonder how they decide these things?
GOT 'EM!!!
Just checked again and they are available thru direct ticketing on this site!!
See you there!
you can also get them through house of blues right now if you are a member. And if you pick them up at will call no shipping charge.
I'm going to wait until friday as ticketmaster has free shipping for tickets so, thats the best deal for me right now.
I just needed to have them ASAP for peace of mind...
Priority mail added only $6.50...1st class was only $3.50 I do believe...
Crap. I didn't think they were available anywhere until Friday. Crap.
now on SALE!! got mine.
Rotate This still doesn't have tickets. man.
Three tickets thru ticketmaster secured Friday am . All is well.
What a relief for you. Enjoy Brillo!
Any word on who's opening for this show?
Can't wait..
then NIN/QOTSA in November..
Rotate This has tickets (finally). And they're selling VERY quickly. You can only buy them with cash, though, just so you know.
EC finally purchased her tickets.
You can all rest easier, now. She sho is. ;)
This can't be happening. All you guys get to go enjoy the show, while i have to sit around at home and pine away because i'm under 19. What a shame that I've waited so long for this. The thing that bugs me the most though is that this is like the only 19+ show the venue has for months on either end. Sheesh sheesh sheesh.

Alex, if you look into it, I'll pretend I'm your aunt or whatever. If that's allowed, we'll getcha in. ;)
(I wonder if I know a bouncer there... hm.)
Ok, I officially have my TO ticket and one for Clevland.
Should be a good two night run!
He he, thanks EC. unfortunately though you have to be 19 to enter the venue. Thanks very much for the offer though, i'd totally take it If I could.
