Presale is Monday at 10am.

Glad I pulled the trigger on the presale. My buddy couldn't get a ticket today and thought he was screwed. He's got lucky that there is a 2nd show added.
Do you or anyone else now if these tickets are sold so quickly because of brokers or some other reason? I was on the computer and phone at 10AM wednesday and the seats were mediocre. Was there any way I had a chance at row 1 or 2 in section T, A, S, B or R?
I miss the days of showing up at the arena or D.H. Holmes ticket master offices to get the exact seats I want.

I had a hard time getting any tickets offered today! Ticketmaster's server had too much traffic

I get the feeling there were plenty of ticket bots snatching them up and screwing the system. There were tickets with seat assignments for sale on broker sites prior to the presale start. I was able to get 2 floor ticket by purchasing them one at a time.
Hopefully Ticketmaster gets this shite straight for the Monday presale. I have a group to buy this time and don't want to get screwed.
Haha yeah! I remember standing in line with my dad for different concerts. It was upstairs I believe.
On a Cure note, I've been playing them nonstop to familiarize my wife with them. She only knows the radio tracks.
"Catch" just came on the shuffle, and that song is so fricking incredible. The music is sad and fun just as the lyrics are. It's such a complex song for only 2 and a half minutes.
I find myself telling my wife "this is my favorite song.... no wait THIS is!" the entire time. In my mind that's the highest compliment to give a band, because it shows that they have a large number of songs that resonate so strongly. A Forest, Catch, Sinking, Kiss me kiss me kiss me, Untitled... the list goes on. Each one of those is "my favorite" cure song.
I think I will wind up going both nights. Hopefully my middle aged arse can muster up the stamina for it

I considered passing on the presale because I've gotten better seats during the general public sale many times with other shows. Glad I didn't. I know a lot of people who will be upset they missed out. Sucks for them. I'm pumped for this show!

I will try to get tickets for both nights too! I hate that it's during the week but I'm not missing them this time around

I haven't gone to an arena show in decades. I guess the Cure in 92 was the last time. I can't believe how difficult it is to get the seats near where you want. Sometimes the internet fricks things up.
My wife isn't a big fan so I'm going with friends.
A Forest is my favorite especially the 1992 live iteration. I also hope they play a few from the Faith album like All Cats are Gray and Other Voices.
I also despise some of their songs like Friday and High.

I hope they play , "The Kiss", because I love Robert Smith's guitar solo
He played this in Houston when I saw them back in 07 or 08. 3 hour show that never failed to be entertaining. This song is so fricking tight! 6 minutes of guitar bliss with about 30 seconds of vocals: epic
Hey also played One Hundred Years which has a killer guitar hook to it. Great great song live

They could play nothing but tracks from Disintegration and that'd be okay with me.

I feel the same way about Head On The Door

That's the one that got me hooked in 1985.

Crazy. I was on at the onset of the presale, and I was locked up on the "searching for tickets" screen. I was using two different computers. Finally when one went through, no tickets available. Ticketmaster is a fricking fraud
Posted on 11/23/15 at 11:31 am to Midget Death Squad
I was having a lot of problems like that too. I went on ticketmaster website and read tips to help . I read that you can't have any other window/tabs open when trying to purchase tickets through Ticketmaster. When I tried again , with only that , I didn't have a problem . Did you get through
Posted on 11/23/15 at 12:15 pm to Midget Death Squad
There is a blog called , Chain of Flowers , with everything related to The Cure . Anyways, there is a section that has tickets for The Cure shows , for resale . For one reason or another , some fans are trying to resale tickets , without over charging, like some of the other ticket sales sites do! I will link his site when I get back to my office
you may be able to find really good seat/tickets for their New Orleans show or any show, really. Good luck.

I will look into it. No I was not able to get any. I had one browser open on two different computers. Each was logged into two different accounts (mine and my wife). I'm glad I have a pair to the first show, but I have 6 of us wanting to go to this new one.

It worked! I went to the Chain of Flowerswebsite, and it brought me to TM for purchase. I guess either TM got their shite together or it is broken and the link on this website takes you to one that works. Either way, I was able to get 6 floor tickets through TM at the face value.
Thanks for the find
