Nothing like buying tickets at the regular price only to have them discounted later. Does anybody know of any way to get a refund?

I already called TicketMaster and was told tough shit. In this case, it looks like you snooze you win.

they're giving away tickets to this show in S.F. this weekend at the Shorline Amp.  A classic venue, with tons of great bands playing (Jesus & Mary Chain, Cut Copy, Yeasayer, M83, The Whigs, Mates of State, Datarock, Tapes N Tapes, RJD2...) and they aren't selling anything.  AND it's only 20 bucks...but for me to drive there, it would be 30$ + round trip, and that just fuckin' pisses me off so I dont think I'm going.  I wonder if we're gonna see a shut down of some of these outskirt city theaters?  

But anyway...Gas prices are messing with my live music experience! and this must stop!

Was anyone here able to purchase the $10 tickets?  I'm trying now, but it looks like they're sold out.

do you know where they are giving them away?  during the show or before hand?

Wow, that's a bad sign.  When a band reduces tickets, it means noone has bought enough tickets to pay for the use of the venue.  That is a BAD sign of how things are progressing on the left coast.  I guess those Cali folks have enough of their own bands to worry about a lil' band from Kentucky.  
At least this bodes well for you folks who want to keep the band playing in small to mid-size venues.  But it proves they aren't quite the "Arena Act" that they were promoted as at the beginning of this album/tour.
They ain't no Coldplay. (thank goodness)

From my experience, it's the promoter that reduces prices, not the band.  What they usually do is discount a whole bunch of shows that haven't sold out to drive people to buy tickets.

Regardless of who's doing the reducing, it's apparent that there are a shitload of tickets left for the show.  How big is the venue?
