No luck getting tickets to Radiohead in Chicago.

I really thought I would be able to get tickets, got in right away, entered the word verification, but was shut out repeatedly for both shows.  I knew that if I didn’t get in with the very first try then I wouldn’t be going.  Not getting tickets means the likelihood of me returning to Bonnaroo that much better.

If anyone bought tickets for me, and I don’t know it yet, please feel free to leave a comment.

    I too was on it from the INSTANT they went on sale, and I met with the same result…Nada.
    Oh, well. It all seems so random with Ticketmaster. Their system is not that great.

    San Diego sold out instantly too. If I wasn’t going to be out of town for the show, I would track down the dickheads who are already auctioning them off on craigslist and crush their balls with a garlic press.

    I was able to score a pair of tickets to both shows through the WASTE presale. Getting tickets involved staying up until 6am last Tuesday constantly hitting refresh on their ticket page but it worked out. I know this isn’t much consolation now, but for future Radiohead ticket sales, their website offers the best chance of getting tickets.

    Nothing man, sorry, I couldn’t get any myself. I am giving away a Summer Camp weekend pass if you haven’t bought one yet, or weren’t planning on it. It’s no Radiohead, but I have a feeling it’ll be a good time.

    I was sitting at my computer and completely spaced. I didn’t remember until 11:15cst. Yep, they were sold-out alright…

    I amassed a team of five computers, three tired roomates, and a network of eight friends over AIM… all refreshing ticketmaster from 9:30+. Number of tickets secured = 0. Shoo.

    Who’s Radiohead. Hey Ryan. Thanks for the postings. I thought about starting my own music web blog for the local area. I noticed a new billboard advertising the guy who sang ‘Raindrops (Keep Falling on my Head)’ and the guy that sang ‘Boondocks’. That is basically how the sign reads. Their actual names are in a smaller font with the two international hits in big bold letters. They are playing at one of the local casino’s. It should be a riot. Your friend in Albuquerque. – Luke
