strange it would only let me buy one ticket.

[the scenestar]

just sold out.

[Michael]

I must have got the last ticket. My girlfriend is going to kill me.

I bought tickets over the weekend and just got an email that the show is canceled. Ticketmaster and Ticketweb took the show off their sites as well.

How very sketchy of everyone involved.

Beck Schmek...

Very odd that I never received an email.

[Michael]

I got the email. I bet the show is still going on, and they just over sold the place, thus canceling tickets the purchased tickets. There is nothing going at the echo tonight. So what exactly is the conflict? Sounds very shady to me.

[Michael]

Wow. I just got some interesting information from the Echo about the show. It seems that Beck canceled the show because he was pissed that so many of the tickets were bought by scalpers and being sold for so much.

[mitch]

thats a bummer about the scalpers, but what are the odds i'll be able to get tickets again. It always sells out in minutes. Anyone know if there is a new date for the show?

[charlotte]

Interesting. Well, I was surprised TicketWeb offered Ticket Fast, which would help the scalpers versus will call.
