cannot wait.

Re: The Black Keys
Front row at the Ryman - wow! Snagged fourth row in DC! They are playing a bigger (seated) venue but I'm happy with our location. Jumped on minutes later to pick up tickets for friends and they were already at the 20th row. This is what happens when the band you like gets big...

Re: The Black Keys
I almost got tickets for the Ryman but those prices are crazy. Especially since you "must" buy the album as well? Bullshit, I'll wait till public sales before I think about it. I love the Black Keys and want to see them live, but I'm not going to pay even more to get something I already have preordered, in addition to fees and whatnot. Is the Ryman all seats or can I get up close and stand against a rail? I'm not for sitting at a show.

Re: The Black Keys
All seats or pews if you will. Tickets are 95.00 for 2 with the digital download. I would highly suggest the Ryman for a show just do not get stuck underneath the balcony. The acoustics in the auditorium are unreal and it is rated top five in the world.orangeshoeskid wrote:I almost got tickets for the Ryman but those prices are crazy.

Re: The Black Keys
Does look nice - most of UK gig places seep with hundreds of years of character and are not purpose built so accoustics aren't always amazing.kevron6 wrote:Well it just depends on what website you believe.

Re: The Black Keys
The only thing that I could find regarding it is "The visitor tour claims that the Ryman has the second best acoustics in the US" and that's it. So other than the Ryman themselves saying that they're amazing I can't find anything to back it up.

Re: The Black Keys
I would if it wasn't $95. That's crazy. When I saw them on the last tour it was only like $30 each. I don't care about the digital download part. I might wait and see what ticketmaster will end up costing with all the fees and whatnot, who knows, maybe ill just have to go down to the Ryman and buy tickets if possible.

Same here I remember reading somewhere about it being top five but cannot remember where.
For what it is worth I think it is an amazing venue with great acoustics.

Re: The Black Keys
I love the Black Keys, and being from the Akron area definitely has its perks when it comes to seeing them play.

Re: The Black Keys
The Ryman is beautiful, and regardless of the acoustics being 2nd or 222nd in the world, it is a remarkable place to see a show.
I am slightly irritated that the tickets require some sort of bundle/purchase to take advantage of the advance sales. I agree w/ Aaron that it gets excessive if you've already pre-ordered something (not to mention the increase in price from the last tour.) And if I buy four tickets I certainly don't need four downloads.
Wow, JW, that show must have been wicked.

Re: The Black Keys
Oh, it was so great. I just heard there might be a Black keys show ,
but no one knew for sure so we just headed over to the bar and probably less than 100 people were there for it.
So great. Its were they played most of their shows when they first started out. The Beachland
