July 4th ?
 

We know where to make the reservations and when. But when they say we'll be told on how to pick up the tickets, does this mean it will have to be in person? Or is it something we can just print out online?

P.S Anyone want to guess what they'll play and for how long?

From the River to River site:

"Tickets are required and space is limited. The tickets are free and will be available by reservation on this website starting at noon on Thursday, June 12. There's a strict limit of 2 per person. You will need to pick up your reserved tickets at one of the specified Downtown locations and times BEFORE July 4th, so please be prepared to do so. The times and locations for pickup will be given to you when you reserve your tickets."

Thats sucks. I'm coming down from Boston on the 3rd and wont be in NYC till around 8pm. Does this mean I'm fucked?

The City is obsessed with being in total control at all times. Probably liability related. I don't think they know what they're doing, honestly.


Ahh the golden memory of attending the Bill Graham Memorial Concert along with a million other Bay Areans, no gates no searches no problems.

exactly where is that? All I can find is a SY page that links to the RivertoRiver.com page - but there is no specific link to where I will put in my request, unless I'm supposed to assume it will be added tomorrow. I wonder how much personal information they'll be harvesting.

retarded predictable shit -

Got tickets! :) Just got to figure how to go pick them up.

what a clusterfuck on the server but rapid refreshing pays off :D

I managed to get my 2 tix. i MAY (if my wife has to work) have one available to give away later

I'm guessing this show is geared for 'locals' thus the requirements to show up in person and get the tix.

Ya. It does suck. I'm not even sure if I can go those certin days to pick them up. I would glady pay up to $60 instead of going down to NYC just to pick up the tix. Jeez do they realize some people work fulltime?

its not like most of aren't at work trying to do this...

pain in the ass - but the rapid refresh did work, finally!

I may have an extra myself...

i'm sure people will be scalping extra tix (i won't since it's kinda sleazy to scalp a free tix) so if you can't get there hooligan that may be an option.

Or see if anyone has an extra they they are giving away (either here or on craigslist). Fortunately picking the tix up won't be an issue for me

Managed to get 3 pairs, that site was a pain in my ass to use. I can't wait.

Goddamn whores. I have my reservation... but now I have to clear away plans for the 21st so we can drive the 5 hours into the city to pick up tickets at "The Green Tent." It's like a scavenger hunt.

Shitty thing is... my boyfriend's sister LIVES in the city. I did not realize that you needed a photo ID until after I booked the tickets.

Hooray for frivolous roadtrips and ultra-high gas prices!

heh you should have just gotten a 2'nd set under your bf's sister's name :)

yeah i have to go straight from the airport to where ever shithole i have to pick up the tickets on the 24th. what shitty reservation dates. i thought they were going to be available anytime before the 4th.

I already had TWO sets booked. One under mine... and my bf booked one under his. We're quite the dumb pair and didn't latch on until afterward. By the time he went back to grab one under his sis's name, the tix were gone! At least more people got a chance despite our bumbling. It's nobody's fault but our own. He's already promised to pay for the gas :P

world financial center plaza is hardly a shithole.

Geeze it's free be happy with that :)

I agree. We should just be happy we got tickets. They were gone in 20 minutes.

i bet more will be available after the 24'th

and i feel bad for everyone that doesn't live in the area as it is a pain in the butt to get the tix. I'm just lucky that it's a short train ride.
