I think Jack and T Bone are both on that foundation board too.

Yes, it's the organization Jack gave a large sum of money to kick start their efforts.

See, I got mixed up about that. There's the National Recording Preservation board, then there's the foundation board. ??

EDIT: As a friend who was also there last year just noted, this show is one year to the date of the infamous Radio City 1 show.

^^ I assumed that was the main reason for his involvement.

And this is likely to be a whole 'nother ball-game from Radio City, both on the stage and in the audience.

I'm seeing them in September at the Mann Center. Their songs are more gushy and romantic than I usually allow, but boy they're good.

I just pulled up the site a couple minutes ago to try for the pre-sale and was greeted with this--
It Won't Be Long Now

Due to extraordinary demand you have been placed in a queue
and will enter the pre-sale in the order you arrived.
I don't think I have high hopes for getting good tix.

Ugh. Y'know what's annoying about that to me? I went to the regular site (non-Vault) at 7:30 and got that message. I then used the link from the Vault and got the regular ol' non-waiting page, and I thought, "Oh, okay, I'll be alright."

Then I see this post; and now I too am waiting. I coulda been in EARLIER! :lol: Ah, whatever, I doubt I'm scoring tickets either. SOMEbody here will, I'll try, but I too have low hopes.

The Vault is selling tickets for this, too?

Never mind, I just re-read and realized you said you followed the link from the Vault. Duh. Still not enough caffeine in my system this morning. And I'm currently working on talking myself out of this. I need the money for Nashville this fall.

Hmm. Now that "waiting" page has stopped for me and looks "normal." Huh. Fancy that.

Mine went to the "normal" page after just a couple minutes. I'm hesitant to refresh it in case it changes my place in the queue.

Except that I'm still talking myself out of this.

Yeah, after a wait it brought me to a checkout page.

I was away from my desk, just got back to it, refreshed the page, saw the word "unavailable". Oh well, oh well, oh well. No surprise.
