Can't see the gig listed on ticketmaster - only one in Manchester. And yes I am on ticketmaster.ie

Anyone else having the same problem??

johnny_ultimate · 28-05-2010 08:59AM

Check out Joanna Newson on ticketmaster

Miguel_Sanchez · 28-05-2010 09:00AM

But I wanna see Joanna Newsom!

KJF · 28-05-2010 09:03AM

Just booked my tickets. Delighted. Saw her in the Olympia in 2007 and she was amazing. Looking forward to checking out Grand Canal Theatre too.

johnny_ultimate · 28-05-2010 09:03AM

Woo tickets bought, row E in the stalls

delbertgrady · 28-05-2010 09:12AM

Got row D at 9:00. The Ticketmaster lady said it was "nearly sold out", but I'm back at my desk now and tried for one seat as an experiment and was offered a good spot in row K.

Miguel_Sanchez · 28-05-2010 09:45AM

Damn it - I went for 'Best Available' at 9 and only got Row H.

They've fixed the typo on her name too.

lordgoat · 28-05-2010 09:53AM

Amazingly i got tickets just now, circle row f right in the middle, happy with that, can't believe i forgot to get them at 9, spent the whole drive to sork going it'll be sold out.

Due to excess drinking last night I would have completely forgotten if my girlfriend hadn't said "Don't forget about Joanna" when she was leaving the house this morning.

I was lying in bed thinking "Who the hell is Joanna and what do I have to do to her?" for about five minutes before it dawned on me. :rolleyes:

I was down there (to avoid Ticketmaster donchaknow) at lunchtime and they were back to about t or v in the stalls. The Stalls go back to CC and then there's the circle & upper circle. Just checked now and the stalls are up to W.

In my cack handedness I managed to drop the tickets somewhere on the short cycle back to the office. Thankfully they'll cancel & reissue. A big PHEW at this end of the phone.

At least they managed to spell her name correctly. :rolleyes:

johnny_ultimate · 01-09-2010 09:24PM

Yeah just came here to post that!

Either we're going to be waiting 23 hours for the gig to begin, or Grand Canal Theatre has more advanced time travel abilities than I've been led to believe. Or ticketmaster are a bit slow. The latter one.

Miguel_Sanchez · 02-09-2010 01:01AM

Surely we just listen to the show outside for an hour before we're allowed in to take our seats?

It's not as bad as the time MCD got Smog's Myspace page mixed up with some teenage girl's from California a few years ago.

sxt · 08-09-2010 09:23PM

This day week 6 days , woot!

eyeball kid · 10-09-2010 01:11PM

Just went on ticketmaster this morning and got 1 ticket for myself (billy no mates:( ) in row B. Delighted with that though

Fairly surprised there were any tickets left, although I was only getting 1 ticket.

johnny_ultimate · 12-09-2010 12:23PM

Excitement for this! Have genuinely been waiting for Tuesday since her last transcendent gig in the Olympia.

Picked up my replacement tickets and am now soooooo excited about this. I'm afraid I'll overdo it, coz I can't see how this gig is going to be as good as it is in my head.

ColmDawson · 12-09-2010 10:56PM

In her interview in The Ticket, she mentioned that she'll have her full band with her. Can't wait!

Just picture her turning up 90 minutes late and , walking off stage after someone has thrown plastic bottles at her....nah that was a guns n roses concert!:o

ronano · 13-09-2010 07:28PM

Any idea what time she'll be onstage and what time she'll be off? I'm trying to work going to see her around feeding a sickly guinea pig!

See you at the front!!

Miguel_Sanchez · 14-09-2010 02:24PM

Is there support tonight?

Any proper word on stage times? Is it 7.30 or are they still putting her on an hour before the doors open as they claimed last week?

Toast · 14-09-2010 02:30PM

Support is Roy Harper. Show starts 7.30 according to GCT website so my guess would be Harper till 8.00 Newsom from 8.30 with 10.30 finish.

sxt · 14-09-2010 05:10PM

Roy Harper supporting ,uber cool

johnny_ultimate · 14-09-2010 06:02PM

Hopefully will make it for the support, will be pushing it a wee bit though!

Still, two hours or so til Joanna! w00t!

Toast · 14-09-2010 06:07PM

Keep in mind my times are only estimates. Heading in for about 6.45 myself. If support is on earlier than 7.30 Ill update the toutless twitter.
