PHILLY SHOW MOVED TO TOWER THEATER

[banba]

mmm- I just called Comcast tickts and they told me I COULD NOT redeem my on call tickets in advance and needed to do it on Thursday.
So what is real?

[trish]

I gotta say, I think this venue looks fab and full of character and so much better than the arena. Capacity 3,119.. Yippee!!! This concert is going to be even more amazing!

How will this affect the meetup?! Just wondering

Banba, I don't mind waiting until Thursday to change tickets. Won't get there before then anyway!

Best news ever. This will be so much more intimate than Spectrum. I was just there to tonight to see Bob Weir/Ratdog. The security is really cool, not bad lines for anything and smoking section. Leonards show is so much more suited to the Tower than the Spectrum,

[jarkko]

Banba - you have to do it at the Live Nation box office, not anywhere else.

[banba]

Jarkko- even though they are fan tics and were will call ones?
I guess I will call again today and see what answr I get.
This is agreat venue for leonard.

***That's how it goes also with our will call tix! / Jarkko ***

Will there be a meetup before the show? I will be driving solo from just outside of Trenton NJ and can pick up one or two at either Trenton or Hamilton Train station. Can we still meet band prior to show? This is just too marvelous. Also going Fri to MSG and Chelsea plaque ceremony. WOW. Credit card in red but this is chance of lifetime for me. PM me if you want ride. Lorraine

Hi Lorraine yes we are trying to get a meetup organised (there's a separate thread). Nothing organised yet but work on the basis that it will happen! Goldstei was keeping a list of those who wanted to go, so you can reply on the thread or PM him...

Does anyone have the phone number of the Live Nation box office that handles exchanges?

Does anyone have the phone number of the Live Nation box office that handles exchanges?

Good luck.

I was trying to find one too. I did the ticket exchange yesterday morning and for anyone going it is 111 Presidential Boulevard WEST (there is an "East" but you go in the door for the West building). Also - the call box outside listed nothing about Live Nation. So - we waited for employees to arrive and let us in.

But - I might have a clue for you. Haha! The box office for Live Nation was upstairs - and I noticed that it was located in the offices of Clear Channel - at the front and to the right as you enter Clear Channel's offices. I just looked up and this information might help. They probably are not open today (although who knows?) but maybe they can give you a number for the box office.

CLEAR CHANNEL
(WIOQ, WUSL, WISX,
WUBA, WDAS-FM, WDAS-AM)
Clear Channel Radio Philadelphia
111 Presidential Blvd, Suite 100

Haha, thank you so much for your investigating work, sturgess66!! i've spent quite some time googling this to no avail. Will try to give them a call!

Thought I would pass it on that I just picked up my tickets at Live Nation. My tickets were originally Will Call tickets because they were bought during the Fan Club Pre Sale. I had 4th row at the Spectrium and I have 4th Row at the Tower. They told me that they have been trying to allign the Spectrium tickets with The Tower. The Ticket exchange was seamless and all I needed to show was an ID. Hope all of your exchanges go just as easy. Its going to be a great night in Philadelphia.

[sturgess66]

I just called Clear Channel (where Live Nation box office is located) and obtained the number for the Live Nation box office - and it is 610-784-5400.

The Philadelphia show at the Tower is apparently sold out! On Live Nation's website it says "CONCERT TICKETS UNAVAILABLE." The woman at the box office said that if tickets did become available to them, it would show up on their site.

However - this site - (not Live Nation)
http://www.tower-theatre.com/

is showing some seats, front and center, available at excellent prices.

In accordance with Sue's post - about lineups at the will call window in Tampa last night -
viewtopic.php?f=39&t=19037

- it is probably a good idea to get to the Tower Theater early on Thursday if your tickets are still "will call." I think the Tower's box office opens at 12:00 noon on Thursday.

Hi didn't read whole thread but my tickets are through presale. All I need to do is bring my order form to Tower box office right? I will be getting there by 7:30 hopefully. Hoping this isn't gonna be a problem. So excited this show got moved. Tower will be very haunting. Can't wait. Leonards show in Philly earlier this year was the best show i have seen in ten years.

crujonez,

You MUST bring a government issued photo ID, probably the credit card with which you purchased the ticket (to be on the safe side) and bringing your order form (in case of any snags) also helps.

The important thing is the ID. The others are to cover all bases just in case they ask.

Enjoy the show - I know you will!

Best regards,
Mary
