8th Row Center for Crowded House!!!!!!!!!

[grace0418]

I'm seeing the Chicago show as well as the Milwaukee show. The Milwaukee show has reserved seats and by some miracle I scored 8th row center. I have never had seats that good unless I waited all day in line and ran to the front of the venue. WOO-HOO!

Thank you for sharing my joy. They are my most favorite band ever in the entire world.

*happy dance*

edited to add the tour schedule, in case anyone else wants to bask in the wonderfulness that is CH... :)

2. Just Austin as far as I know.

Although the Austin City Limits Festival sure has a fantastic lineup. If I had the money I would consider making the trip.

Here's the tour as it stands currently:

3. That is something I can look into

It's hard to get tickets to the ACL fest. Thanks for the info!!

4. You're welcome. I hope you get to go.

I was truly amazed by the lineup. I have a large percentage of the acts on my iPod.

5. Rumor has it that there *may* be another Chicago show on the 19th!

For anyone interested.

6. Woo Hoo!!

As far as I know, the Northampton tickets have not gone on sale yet....

[grace0418]

7. You're correct.

These were the presales that started yesterday. Northampton is not listed but it looks like there may be more. (This is from an email from crowdedhouse.com)

Boston, MA
New York, NY
Milwaukee, WI
Chicago, IL
Atlanta, GA

To take advantage of the pre sales click here. Pre sales will start at 10.00am local time for each venue.

Pre sales for the remaining shows will be announced shortly. For full Crowded House tour dates, further pre sale information and more information go to www.crowdedhouse.com or join the mailing list.

Of course, they're a bit disorganized so you have to keep your eyes open. I didn't get that email until several hours after the Chicago presale had sold out. Luckily someone on Next Exit forwarded theirs.
