A different set of presales for the August 31, 2005 Chicago show begin Friday morning, July 8th!
Posted Thu, Jul 07, 2005 - 11:33pm ET | Tour
Most of you know that the Musictoday presale for the Chicago, IL show on August 31, 2005 began on Thursday morning, July 7, 2005 at 10:00AM. If you check out the Ticketmaster.com listing for Chicago, you will see that a different presale begins on Friday, July 8, 2005 at 10:00AM and ends that same day at 10:00PM. Word has it that that this presale is actually two presales, one sponsored by radio station WXRT and the other by JamUSA.com. I am not sure how that works, but if you try to get tickets tomorrow for the Chicago show after 10:00AM, you will have to enter a password. I am not going to put the presale password on the Dent, because everytime I do that I get a hundred angry emails telling me I did the wrong thing. Thanks to Tim, Kristy and Woj for the info.
