I did try to get tix online....finally got on the site and ended up in the virtual waiting room for about 45 minutes. By the time my turn came up, it was sold out. 9:00AM-9:57AM. It was 10:20AM then. Geezzzz...they don't even offer any refreshments while you're in the waiting room ;D

If you want them, just place your damn order online... I hope you wern't planning on placing your damn order online cause the site crashed ;D It happens everytime I know I did it before and almost didn't get tickets for a show once before.

Elton sold out here in about 45 minutes. Some people lined up for over 24 hours to get tickets. Oh, and I forget who mentioned it, but... we're getting BSB as well. Hah.
Actually, we have a few good acts coming up. BSB, Avril, Simple Plan, Lenny Kravitz, Alice Cooper...
Still can't replace the Fog Devils, though.

I can hardly think of paying $1500.00 for Eldon John or anyone else...

Hey Freddy: I thought you were coming on our board to tease me about wanting to go to Elton John concert and that real Midtown Tavern customers wouldn't even think about going see him ;D Looking forward to talking with you again this season either in Moncton or in Halifax. Have a good summer because it's going to be a long winter for you Moose fans this year! ;D

I wasn't much of a fan then but I must say that he put on one hell of a show. For one thing the sound will be a lot better then the Eagles concert. Even with today's technology, you still can't beat an old rink concert.

Geezzzz...they don't even offer any refreshments while you're in the waiting room ;D I was online also ... got in immediately to the section where you order your tickets ... but kept getting a pop-up message that my "order could not be filled at this time ... please modify your selection and try again" (or something like that). At 9:53 the site booted me out and there was no longer a link to get back in. Needless to say I didn't get tickets.

I was on the web also... was on the waiting list for a few minutes, but I was then able to buy 2 pairs of tickets no problem.

I waited on my cpu from 8:40 to 10:20 only to receive a message at 10:20 that it was sold out. I also did not get any tickets.

I don't think a 60 year old Elton John sitting at a piano is going to put on "a helluva show"... for fans of his music I'm sure it will be great listening to his set.. but those looking for an electrifying performance will probably be very disappointed
