We had major problems here in Sweden too, mostly with the payment system that they realized, right when the tix were supposed to go on sale,would crash so they postponed the sale for 55 min and then it took hard work for approx. one hour to get into the systems and for some the payment system crashed anyhow and some where left with money drawn from their account but no tix or confirmation or visa versa. Some still haven't not received their money back OR tix. The strange thing about this site (Eventime this time) was that once you had gotten into the system and purchased tix you could then log in and out as many times as you wanted whilst others could not get into the system at all.

Well I got tickets today for Thursday night (in Jersey) because a friend got dumped by the ticketmaster system while trying to checkout. She complained (big time) and they offered her extra tickets so guess who benefitted? Now all I have to pay through the nose for are Saturday night tickets <sigh>

And have you all heard this???? Another guy - unhappy leaving Jersey LOL. I can't tell you how happy this makes me - the E Street Band can continue after all. :D
_________________________________________-- CONAN O'Brien's drum ming sidekick, Max Weinberg, is not expected to be joining "The Tonight Show" when O'Brien takes over the show next month. Weinberg, the longtime anchor of O'Brien's house band, The Max Weinberg 7, is also the longtime drummer for Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street band. It is understood that Weinberg, a father of two and a Newark native, rakes in bigger bucks from Springsteen and does not want to be forced to leave his south Jersey home for the move to LA. He is also said to loathe the notion of giving up his season tickets for the NJ Devils. As Conan's move to LA has been approaching, there have been published reports about Weinberg's attempts to sell 22 acres of his 40-acre estate in Middletown, NJ, to developers. The proposed sale is not sitting well with some neighbors and officials in Middletown Township, the story said. According to reports, Weinberg plans to keep his New Jersey home - where he lives with his wife and two children - while living at least part-time in the LA area. Weinberg has reportedly been looking at homes in the LA area, but has apparently chilled on the idea. NBC officials say "Tonight Show" producers have not yet given up trying to woo Weinberg. "The show would like him to [move] and we're trying to figure it out," a NBC spokesman says. Weinberg could not be reached for comment yesterday. On "Late Night," Weinberg is occasionally presented in sketches as a twisted character with sexual fetishes and homicidal tendencies. Weinberg joined Conan back in 1993, reportedly after a chance meeting with the late-night host outside the Carnegie deli. |
Yeah read about that. Might be smart negotiations though who knows. I don't think it really matters if he moves or not, if the band wants to go on I'm sure they will.
I was wondering why Bruce thanked Conan so very heartily during the NFL press conference. .-) Glad to hear that you got tix for NJ, I'll keep my fingers crossed that you guys will get tix for saturday without having to pay excess prices! |

Good for you Kathleen. I'm still trying for a jersey show, but only the PA show comes up. Stinkin Ticketmaster. Eileen |
I only really got into Bruce about two years ago. He has blown my mind regularly ever since.
Also Conan needs Max to make the show as funny as it can be, without him it'd be a lot poorer. Just looking at Max makes me laugh. |
