Why are Pulp so unpopular now?

alright i am sitting here with my amex card ready to go! ENBB did you want me to get you a ticket too??

I'm pretty sure she did. Eeeeee!! I cannot tell you how thankful I am. !! (But again: if you can only get the one, I totally understand. And amazing Common People pun!)

OMG L, really? Like Lex said if you can only get one I totally understand but if you could get me one too I'll PayPal you the $$ today! Ahhhhh! Fingers crossed.

This reminds me of the time in 1995(?) when my friend organized about ten of us to be on Ticketmaster's website & dialing on the phone to try and get through for Spice Girls tickets, heh.

How I knew I was getting old: being unable to discern between particular years in my favourite decade. Sigh.

i'll definitely try to get three but i'll let you know what happens either way!

i was supposed to have a meeting at ten but pushed it back to 10:30 so i could get tickets, ha.

Hah! Amazing. Good vibes and speedy clicks your way!

omg tense

Haha me too!

OMG LINDSAY!!!

I AM SO FREAKING EXCITED

Holy cow. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Lex - we're gonna get to hang out and see Pulp while doing so. OMG.

And hang out with BG too!!!

YAY!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Linds - can you webmail me your details so I can paypal you the money for the ticket?

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
E - YAY ILX PULP FAP!

L - me too! Or on FB, wherever!

I'm not going to be able to concentrate on my work for a while now.

I know me neither. I've never seen them!!!

hi ladies! the ticket price with fees was $89.50 (yeahhhhh i know) and my paypal is lindsay6 @ gmail.com! no rush though!

Eh, I sent it! Best to get it to you before I spend it on a million dresses to wear to see PULP IN NYC!! :D :D

Sent!! Wow, I am so excited about this. Best day. :)

On the first day of sale, tickets for concerts are not sold at the Radio City Music Hall Box Offices, and may only be purchased via Ticketmaster.

Fuck Ticketmaster, Radio City, and Pulp.

(I realize u ppl in yr 30s are used to this, but I am intolerant)

Morbs: this isn't technically the first day anyway, just the Ticketmaster/AMEX presale day.. but, boo :(

no, they mean I can't go buy a ticket AT THE VENUE for face value til Saturday, ie, liars.

They'll be old and feeble anyway.

Oh man! That is pretty jerky. I hate lining up in person for tickets. We used to get there super early, get wristbands, and then they would draw a wristband number and REARRANGE the line randomly 'to make it fair'! How about I got here at 4AM and you should respect that, jerks?!

Maybe they'll still be available Saturday, ie, at least one indie geezer I know prefers the Shatner version of "Common People."

Hah! So does my husband. Gimme a break. But that means we get a ~ladies night~!

apparently tickets are on scalper sites already for $300. i am so happy we got awesome seats!

So I'm looking at the seating chart now and it's a little confusing but, uh, those seats (at least the ones I think they are) look AMAZING!

i know, i'm amazed at our luck! other people i know paid the same for like row zz and mezzanine seats.

Damn girl, you did good! I am so so happy. :)

You got the paypal $, right?

yeah! got it! thanks guys!

I actually almost forgot to do a report I distribute everyday at 11 because of my elation about these tickets, heh. Remembered at 11:45 and frantically rushed through it! These look to be better tickets than I had when they were in Toronto in 98! I saw them as well at Reading 2001 from a million miles away, so this? Amazing. And I finally get to meet ILXors! Almost had my chance when ljublana came up here, but I got the flu the same week, so sad :(

Don't get the flu!

You know what's funny, Lex? Even if you'd never posted ITT I would still have associated you with Pulp from way back in the DL days so it's pretty fitting that we'll meet to see them. :)

I think Reading 2001 was the first time I saw Pulp live! xpost

Hahaha! No flu! I can't believe we'll finally get to meet each other after what, 12 years? And I love that Pulp makes you think of me!

Colonel Poo: that's amazing! That was a truly great show. First time I heard Minnie Temperley sticks out for me.

Today is all-Pulp, all-day on my iPod. Yay!

A young FFM at Reading, in a Pulp shirt that was just a picture of a dog??, with a man who later showed me his pierced penis (he was not my travelling companion, just a guy standing near me.. in a kilt) 0_o

another presale:
Presale tickets for this show are available TOMORROW, Thursday, January 26 from 10AM - 10PM, before they go on sale to the general public Friday, January 27 at 10AM.

A friend of mine who isn't on ILX and I guess hadn't checked FB and I was like, "Lady, I'm so on that already."

:)

its sort of ironic that the last completed artist poll on ILM was Do You Remember The First Poll? - ILM Artist Poll #11 - PULP - Results Thread!

anyone seeing them in San Francisco?

hate that this is the thread (because of the title) that gets bumped for Pulp on ILM

it's yr lil secret!

i thought our seats were really really good but then i realized that the double letter seats are closer to the stage - however they are still really good seats! people seem to be getting 2nd and 3rd mezzanine in today's presale mostly.

FFM and I both did the same thing yesterday. LOL. I think they'll still be really great seats though.

A friend of mine who was a Pulp fan before me (inveterate NME reader for decades) said when I asked if he had any interest in this show, "No, I'd rather see Wayne Newton or The Platters."

Re the B vs BB seats: yup, me too! But honestly, still closer than I've ever been AND 14 years of epicness behind it will make us feel like we are sitting on the stage! Apologies in advance for the fact that I can be sometimes kind of annoying in a shouty/cheery kind of way when I am excited. Will try to stay subdued and cool.

According to RCMH, camera policies vary by concert.. any hint in your ticket details, L?

Bee: I tried to bump another Pulp thread! But no one saw it and then this was bumped and now this is our current Pulp thread ;_; But I am pretty sure running the Pulp poll is a large part of why I decided a ticket was worth me travelling to NYC in the event they do not add a Toronto show! Heh. Revived my love just in time. <3

(inveterate NME reader for decades)

in high school i read NME, melody maker, and select magazine despite growing up in the US.

uhm i am totally going to be jumping up and down and shouting all the lyrics too FFM!

i didn't see anything about the camera policy in my ticket email, but maybe when i receive the actual tickets in the mail?

My parents are divorced, so every other week when Dad picked me up the first stop *had* to be the bookstore so I could pick up Select, Q, Melody Maker and NME. Glory days! Even better to know you will jump & cheer with me! Toronto concert-goers can be such losers. I got pushed once for whistling at a Belle & Sebastian concert, and come to think of it, a spitball thrown at me at another B&S show! Maybe Toronto B&S fans are the losers.
