re: The Official 2014 New Orleans Jazz Fest thread - Phish takes over NOLA

If I dont buy tickets for late nights before I go, am I going to get shut out? Or are there going to be lots of places that I can just walk in?

MeterMen+Page will definitely sell out. Other shows will be pretty safe.

That said- this year could be different with the Phish fans in town.

The final price for the MeterMen+Page show is $83

Each night?

Damn, rethinking that for sure.

Tycho - Awake

free NPR stream of Tycho's new album. Playing Jazz Fest late night on Monday April 28th at Republic

$80+ for the Meter Men is a joke but people will pay it so...?

It was $25 in '09 with Page at Tips.

It was '09

and like you, I love the Meters almost more than any band but $80 is to steep for what they are putting out these days.

I'd rather see PBS. Leo's guitar playing is not for me these days.

I promise I'll stop bitching about ticket prices here soon. Forgive me.

They played Cars, Trucks and Buses

That's about the extent of what I remember.

Well now that the majority of late nights are in place (minus the Maple Leaf), what is the show you are most excited for?

Mine is a band from Burlington,Vermont called Phish. They are playing the Acura stage on the first Saturday afternoon.
