Still mourning the loss of Passing Strange, Stew and Crew are participating in the 10 for the 10th celebration at Joe’s Pub. Please check here for a full list of dates. There is some very convoluted way to get free tickets on the site. But you have to sign up for something, then select something , the go back and find out if you were choosen for something. They make it very easy just to pay for tickets. Also performing and the cast of Hair, Aimee Mann, Budos Band, Debbie Harry and more.
I sure hope I get picked for tickets.
UPDATE: Here’s what sucks about Joe’s Pub ticket giveaway, I got this email earlier today
“Hello Joe’s Pub Patrons –
Unfortunately, an error occurred with the distribution of the tickets for our 10 for 10th Free shows. Many Patrons were awarded tickets to shows they did not sign up for.
We have fixed this problem, however it required us to do another random drawing of names for the Free Tickets for all shows. We sincerely appreciate your enthusiasm and your continuing patience with us as we work with this new virtual line system.
Please click here to sign-in again and see if you received a pair of Free tickets to the show(s) you signed up for. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Sincerely,
Jo on behalf of Joe’s Pub”
The email above bolsters my complaints about their Free Ticketing! Some people got tickets for show’s that they did not even sign up for! Did they give those people give tickets back? I’m not sure I would. Hell I would put those tickets on ebay. But wait there’s more I got this email later in the day:
” …Unfortunately, you have not won tickets to the show(s) you signed up for in the new drawing, but please consider joining a STANDBY LINE for any show – details below.”
Then an offer to sign up for a stand by list. I understand nothing comes for free, but sheesh. Stop dangling the carrot if you can’t actually ever eat it.
Did any one actually get these “free” tickets?
