Just got home. What a weekend! Took a train up to New York friday right after work. Got in my seat and noticed on the back of the chair in front of me, written in big block letters "All You Need Is Love". I laughed and thought to myself this is going to be one hell of a weekend. Got up Saturday morning and right after breakfast took a cab over to the Dakota. You could tell the Beatle fans were in town. Lots of people standing around with tears in their eyes, snapping pics. I then crossed the street and headed into the Strawberry Field section of Central Park. The park is beautiful. I can't believe it looks like that in the middle of New York City. No graffitti at all. On the way back to the hotel room I found 6th Ave closed down for the "Tartan Parade" or something like that. I've never seen so many pipe bands in my life. Was pretty cool! Headed over to Radio City about 5:30 PM. They made us line up on the side of the building which was annoying, but the place was beatiful when we got in and its definitely true theres not a bad seat in the house. I was really impressed with Eddie Vedder. I'll have to go get a few of his CD's. What a voice! Jerry Seinfeld was pretty funny and I usually don't care for his humor. Was busting on the NYC cabdrivers. He's right it was like a damm Nascar race from Penn Stattion to 57th Street. I got my wish and heard Paul introduce Ringo as Billy Shears and brake into "With A Little Help from my friends'. (Harley said she could hear me yelling up on the 1st mezzanie all the way down on the floor. : ) I won't re-hash the set list since everyone else has allready covered that. All I can say is that was incredible. I felt like I was in a Visa commercial. 2 nights in New York City- $500. 1st Mezz seat-$350. Seeing Ringo and Paul performing With A Little Help From My Friends _________________________________________________________ = PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My guess is that they will not e-mail the codes until TM (by phone) opens (10 a.m.?)...to give everyone the same chance to purchase.
They opened at 9AM

Ticketmaster pre-sale on-line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give me my code!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: David Lynch Foundation Concert
DrivinFan:
Mark...are you sure about "on line". The ticketmaster web-site doesn't show anything about a pre-sale, and the e-mail indicated "call in".
Thats what the supervisor I got transferred to said. I can't read the back of my CC for the 3 digit auth code, but ticketmaster.com allready has it saved under my account so I hope she knew what she was talking about.

I saw Ringo and Paul many years back at the Hollywood Bowl, and it was nice, but I wouldn't pay over $1000 to see an abbreviated set list, and Ringo singing along on Hey Jude. I need to think about this one. maybe the Hard Rock is a better deal - even at stubhub prices, at least it will be a full show.
I was picturing Paul doing Sgt Peppers leading right into With a little help from my friends! I can see it now: Paul singing: BILL-LY SHEARS! Enter Ringo: What would think if I sang out of tune............ That would be priceless!!!!!!!!!!
