Anyone Get July 4th Tickets In Hand Yet?
 
Just wondering. I'm really stressing cuz River 2 River said they'd mail them to me a week ago. Anyone else waiting for them through the mail? I cant see how everyone can pick them up i person. And I dont want to give my money to the scumbags from ebay or Craiglist cuz it's a free concert. If I do get them mailed 2 me before the concert,thiers a good chance i'll have an extra cuz i'm going solo. So if anyone is interested let me know. I'll give it to you 4 free. But u could do me a favor and jump in line early for me. And only would give it to a real Youth fan.

i'm not bothering trying since i don't even know my new address yet. i say there's a 20 percent chance i can even get them.

How did you get them to mail them to you? That wasn't an option I saw!

Sat I fuckign negotiatied the industrial tourist hotspot of the WTC deathzone, I made the mistake of taking the most direct route, down Vesey, 2 blocks of happy herds joyful to be where so many thousands were murdered. At the tent to get my ticket I noticed my name on the list had a grey line through it, I don't know what that meant but the woman gave me my tickets without comment. I think they just put a grey line through the bestlooking attendees.

The tickets are friendly, its says they can throw you out for anything. By the ticket rules I can't offer mine for sale. How much are they getting on craigs list?

I posted how to do so. It's in a thread call "Another way to get July 4th tix?"

Anyway: Hooligan, I got mine in the mail on Sat!!!
Yours should be on their way...

So I must be one of the few with tix in hand, no?

My boyfriend and I pranced into the city Friday night and got stuck in killer traffic on the GW bridge. Saturday afternoon we snagged our tickets.

On our walk to World Financial I'm 99.9% sure I walked right past Lee Ranaldo and Leah Singer who were accompanied by two very little girls (granddaughters?). We were about 2 blocks north of Murray St. when this happened. "Lee" was wearing shorts and a blue baseball Jersey and blue baseball hat. I would have stared and gawked or harrassed them... but I think that kind of stuff is creepy :(

So they can kick you out for anything? Mhmm. I sure hope that you're allowed to take pictures. Otherwise, a imma smack a bitch.

according to the ticket, photography is not allowed. Neither is recording. As well, "describing" is also banned, I think that is the term used...like they can throw you out if you are taking notes.

I'd like to see SY make a statement that they won't have us kicked out for cameras and small recorders and notepads.

Ripchord 06.24.2008 09:58 AM

Alright, imma cut a bitch.

uhler 06.24.2008 12:22 PM

i decided not to veen bother getting the tickets today. i have two 40+ pound pieces of luggage i'm carrying with me. no way i'm lugging that all over new york city.

This Is Bullshit! No Tickets From River To River Yet . Other Peeps Got Theirs! The Shows In Just Over A Week. It's Panic Time.

drrrtyboots 06.24.2008 11:33 PM

Got my tickets today, all went pretty smoothly.

SuperCreep 06.25.2008 12:03 AM

Just came back from World Financial with my tickets in hand. :7)

wilffiv 06.25.2008 12:53 AM

did anyone who was gonna get their tickets mailed to them get them in the mail yet? i'm getting kind of worried...

Ripchord 06.25.2008 06:05 AM

Got my tickets yesterday. I assume someone has posted this already, but the people from River To River said that the extra tickets will go on "sale" or wahtever the day of the show.

hooligan37 06.25.2008 09:48 AM

All tickets were mailed out on the 17th they said. So if you didnt get them by now , good chance you wont. Unless Newman from Seinfeld is your mailman.

harlock_jds 06.25.2008 11:09 AM

wish i had known the could have mailed them to me, I've been so tied up with family commitments and work that i didn't get the chance to go pick them up.

Georgekrz 06.25.2008 11:22 AM

got mine yesterday, and just by taking a look at that list with the names, probably only 10-20 percent of people picked up their tickets, as of yesterday 7 pm, and there were not that many people there, 200 maybe at 7pm, So I'm guessing probably close to 50 percent of tickets allocated were not picked up (I have no inside info just making an educated guess). So - get ready for the next round if you still need tickets, river to river will be sending out an e-mail with info soon, according to their website.
