I’ve just been notified that Lucinda Williams will be playing The Orpheum Theatre in Boston on October 8 at 7:30. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Saturday, August 9. there will be a pre-sale starting tomorrow but it looks to me like it’s just for Citi & Nokia. Check with Ticketmaster. (Unfortunately)
August 6, 2008 at 8:19 pm #36520bobParticipantThanks for that info, can’t wait…
August 6, 2008 at 10:39 pm #36521stevarinoParticipantIs this the start of the fall tour? I thought Inside Job said it would begin in the South.

Not very unfortunate. The Live Nation, Nokia “pre-sale” is cheap seats only, starting somewhere about the 25th row. You’ll probably do better hitting the public sale first thing on Saturday.
If you want to try my link to the pre-sale, it’s

and the passwords is “fans”.
I just checked the available seats and now they’re selling seats 4 rows in front of the ones I bought an hour ago, so go figure.August 7, 2008 at 3:27 pm #36523TimParticipantScoresby, I just got tickets in row RR. What do you think?

Any double letter Orchestra seat at the Orpheum is a terrific seat. The whole place is a good vibe, but if you’re in that front sec. you’re especially good.
August 11, 2008 at 12:14 pm #36525Jack1956ParticipantWow, after a few days the only seats left are in the balcony. My server was down Saturday; if anyone has two extras in the double-letter rows I’ll buy them from you!
Thanks,
Jack
August 21, 2008 at 4:38 am #36526clintonctParticipantI’m looking for a single, center, double digets. I’ve seen Lu probably 20 times, and missed the Boston show going on sale, due to being the caregiver for my Mom. I would be thrilled if a single seat became available for Boston, NYC, or anywhere within 120 miles of Hartford CT. I’ve been a Lucinda fan since a Folk Festival, at Great Woods, around 1990. The venue has changed names frequently, but I will never forget sliding again into the second row center, and Lu wailing. Great base, for many memories…. most recently Greenfield, and before that, The Calvin, in Northampton…. second row center…. the folks dead center, left when the encore began, and my friend and I jumped the seats, to be directly in front of Ms. Williams. PERFECT! No one can touch her poetry, besides Dylan.
thanks.

Also hope I don’t get obnoxious drunks sitting behind me like at the last Orpheum show. You know the kind yelling “Let’s boogie”, singing along to Lu when you want to hear LU or worse just talking over her while she is singing.
August 27, 2008 at 7:48 pm #36528AnonymousInactiveRow K sounds pretty good, I think.
Ticket agencys have offices full of people logging in to these sales and buying tickets as fast as they can with stacks of credit cards. It’s a total outrage. The artist gets screwed, their fans get screwed, and the scalpers get rich.
All in all a complete bag of shit.
August 27, 2008 at 8:03 pm #36529DustyLuParticipantYeah, that’s why a dude I know calls em Ticketbastard.
The orchestra rows begin wtih CC and go to RR before rows B through Y, so row K is 25 rows from the stage and 14 row from the back of the floor.
Did manage to get some great seats to a Lu concert out in Northampton once–not sure if it was Ticketbastard or directly with the Calvin, though.
