    Does anyone know? I've never really been to the Scoot Inn and I don't really know what's going on right now

    I have no idea. The tickets have been "Not Available" ever since they were announced. I'd like to know if they ever did become available and if so, did they all go to the scalpers at Ticket City?

    Since the show was just announced, I'd say tickets are "Not Available" yet. Just keep a close eye on it.

    Well the legal scalpers aren't selling them yet though one site had tickets to the Portland show for $72.00. OUCH!

    I hope they sell them at Waterloo or some walk up spot because I have no credit card.

    I'm a little bit afraid that they were announced and sold out before I even knew they were available but that's probably just the anxiety talking.

    Would it be possible to call the venue and just ask?

    Red's Scoot Inn isn't open yet but I wrote to Transmission and asked them when the tickets would become available. They haven't got back to me yet, but I'll let y'all know what they say.

    I just heard back from transmission and they're all sold out. Expect to see tickets on craigslist for $75.00 soon.

    And now I can say with complete authority, "Spoon has sold out".

    I don't really want to get into how monumentally pathetic my life is but I have no way of getting to Houston, can't take the time off, can't obtain a place there even if I got a ticket on Greyhound.

    I've decided it's not worth crying over. People are getting jumped every night in downtown Austin and over there on the East side, wherever rich people congregate to get drunk. It's really not worth the hassle. Not only the hassle of getting over there but the hassle of dealing with asshole bartenders and co-eds yelling for the OC song.

    Ugh, that sucks. I bet plenty of fans are pissed off about this right now.

    Yeah it does suck. You lose some and then you lose some. Spoon finally goes back to a price I can live with and tickets sell out in 5 seconds flat. Sometimes it's nice to just kick back with http://www.lifesucks.info/ and wallow in the misery.

    haha great website... yeah the price shocked me. I didn't feel overpriced in that Austin show at the parish even though it was kinda pricey, but to find a spoon concert that cheap and not get in...DAMN! I was just beaten to the punch.
