Re: Final 5 Acoustic Shows
Hello everyone! Jack White super fan here from North Dakota. I've completely dialed my life in to be present at the North Dakota show. Work, children, wife, you name it - everything is ready to go on the drop of a dime!! Anyone care to speculate in what order Jack will play these shows? Do we believe he will stick to the same cities that were initially cancelled? Will he play the states in the same order they were originally scheduled?
Did someone make mention that Vault members get the info before the general public?
If he plays the shows in the original order then it will be Idaho - Wyoming - South Dakota - North Dakota last....
I've been in full on freak attack high alert mode since this was announced.

Vault members get the info at 7 a.m. local time, everyone else at 8 a.m. Other than that, dunno.

Re: Final 5 Acoustic Shows
If you haven't yet I recommend y'all check out the Anchorage photos on JW's page—I've had a few lucky JW shows/happenings in my life, but DAMN! The people attending these shows are very very fortunate . . . soooooooo jealous.

I'm a vault member - how do I access the info early? Do they put it up on the vault members page? Thank you.

Well I had the venue right. But I didn't have any idea on the date. Alas!JonnyH wrote:Does anyone who lives in Idaho know anyone who works at the Egyptian?

Well oh my god. I can't believe I hadn't logged in to check my vault stuff, but I don't even have to worry anymore. My ticket is guaranteed. Now I just have to sign my wife up and hers will be as well. This is amazing. So glad to be in the Vault.

I wouldn't count on that. They might've already printed out a list of Idaho Vault members and if you add her now she might not be on their list.Mrlantto wrote:Now I just have to sign my wife up and hers will be as well.
Congratulations on seeing the show!

North Dakota resident here, so hopefully her registration will be complete with enough time. Should be a few more days yet.....

Re: Final 5 Acoustic Shows
And thank you, I think my level of obsession and fanaticism for seeing this show has probably driven a few people around insane this last week. It's all I've been able to talk or think about. I knew the day this mini tour was announced that North Dakota would be on there, but I'd been stressing big time over how I would make it to the venue in time. Presumably he'll play Fargo which is 4 hours away.

Re: Final 5 Acoustic Shows
If I were within realistic distance of any of these shows, I'd be just as obsessed and fanatical. Instead I'm fighting jealousy and depression (yes, a first world problem, I know, folks who aren't upset about missing these shows can roll their eyes at me all they want). You're going to have the experience of a lifetime. You may want to e-mail vault@thirdmanrecords.com just to make sure your wife does end up on the list. Get it taken care of so that you won't have any issues day of and can focus on nothing but the excitement of the show.
