Greek Tickets on Sale...!

[carollg]

I was just perusing threads and clicked on the 'ticketing' tab next to 'home' and discovered they're selling tickets (tix@musictoday.com) for the Greek show, Friday, July 25th !! PIT seating still available!!
~Carol
(how'd that happen to get by us?????)

[llbheaven]

Carol--thank you SOOO MUCH for posting this. And Michelle, thanks for getting the info to Laurieboop, and to Laurieboop and Tasina for being so persistent in getting in contact with us!!! La Onda is the BEST! There is NOTHING like the Pit at the Greek!!! WHOOHOO!!!

(Don't know why none of us were notified that these tix were going on sale--it looks to me like someone is falling down on the job....) :mad:

[M6L24M86]

It's so much more fun when we are all in the pit TOGETHER! Tried to get a hold of everyone I could think of that I had their number... which isn't too many, but I am glad Laurie was able to help get a hold of you!

[AustinStratFan]

So, who got what tickets in what places?

CC103,104... :-)

[carollg]

You're so welcome ! Wish I could have posted the news sooner, it was 4pm pst, today, 3/25/08 ! I'm usually not on LLB site at this time, as I'm at work, but was home sick today, what are the odds??? (have you noticed the time on our responses are off by hours ! and I'm not talking about EST, odd)
~ Carol

[Tasina]

Ditto what Martha said. . . Michelle, Laurie thanks so much. .

Ronnie panicked wondering what happened , why I wasn't answering his calls. . .little did he know we were wheeling and dealing trying to make sure we were all getting our tickets. .

Thanks to you Laurie, I'm front and center IN THE PIT in row BB :) who has seats 9 & 10??

whoohoo! the pit once again. Last year I was back in section A and sure missed out on the fun I could see happening up in the Pit~ but the year before, there we were (in front of LeVar Burton lol) row BB :)

[llbheaven]

We weren't able to get to a computer when tickets were on sale, but Laurieboop got us Row BB center, seats 113 and 114---whoohoo! Thank You Laurieboop!!! And Mark, I thought you weren't coming to the Greek this year--glad you decided to join us--last year was a BLAST and SO CRAZY! The entire pit was up and dancing in the aisles, Security didn't know what hit them, Mark lost his glasses, too much fun!!!

[laurieboop]

Special thanks to Carol for posting and sharing with us this vital info and to Michelle for calling me to me aware of this...I had just walked in the door and was shocked to say the least! :eek:

I'm with Martha and Carol on this one...how could we have not been notified as "Fan Club Members"??? MusicToday should have sent an email to us notifying us of the pre-sales here!

I am so thankful to the Fan Club Members and La Onda for always having our backs!! This is what familia & friends are all about...LLB always bringing us closer together each time. ;)

Mark, one ???? for you:

CC, 103 & 104...DOES THIS MEAN YOU WILL BE HERE??

I am looking forward to this show and will be countin' the days!The pit will be rockin this summer and I'm gonna have one of my best birthdays celebrating with y'all!!! :D :cool:

I've got seat 109 in BB... Monica (BabyGurl) has 110 and 111... my younger sister has 112.... Debbie from MA is also in the same row. We're all gonna be together in second row. Pity the people in front of us (and behind!!)

[llbheaven]

Wow, La Onda is all in a row! Yeah, poor people behind us--but maybe they'll be La Onda so it will be ok. :D

[tinky]

:) Thanks to Laurie, I just got my tickets !!!! I would have NEVER known if it wasn't for her post on MySpace.......

Mark, so does this mean you are going to the Greek???

Can't wait to see you all again in July... Tinky

[laurieboop]

WOOOHOOO...

"the house is a rockin, don't bother knockin" ....sounds like LA ONDA WILL BE ROCKIN IN THE PIT!

Tinky, so glad you got your AA seats!!! I got one too, but I also have one in BB...decisions, decisions!!! LOL

Can't wait for another great evening @ the Greek!


AA SEATS ARE NOW AVAILABLE!!! ;)

[llbheaven]

Laurie--you mean you got a seat in the FRONT ROW of the Pit?!!! WHOOHOO!!! I thought you were in row BB with the rest of La Onda, but if you're in row AA--go for it!!!

Will call you tomorrow from Grants Pass!

[carollg]

WoW, I keep trying for AA, must have missed the 'boat.' :confused: But still happy with my BBs !
~ Carol

[Baby Girl]

Whoohoo! Got my BB's!!! La Onda is in the house! Can't wait to p-a-r-t-y with ALL of you!!!!! Debbie, Michelle, Pat, Silvia, Laurie, Tasina, we are going to rock the Greek to the ground. I am so excited! :D :D :cool: :cool: ;)

[mmluvstheboys]

I Am In Arizona, No Computer Readily Available. I Knew Tickets Would Go On Sale When I Was Gone.

Thank You So Much, Rose Warner - "Cancer Lovely" - A LLB Fan From L.A. Area I Met In Las Vegas. Who Called Me Last Night On My Cell (knew I Might Be Gone) And Gave Me The Heads Up.
I Would Have Been So Disappointed.
Looks Like You All Got Great Seats. Whoohoo - Sounds Like A Great Venue, Heard Nothing But Great Reviews About The Greek.
Greek, Los Lobos And The Best "Los Lonely Boys" back in California.

Again - Much Thanks Rose.

Mm

Mm

Hey Margie, were you able to buy your tix? I didn't have your number, so I couldn't call you.

Hope you will be joining us!!!

Take care in AZ ;)

[saguaro02]

Woooosh! This one went right by me..... Couldn't snag PIT tickets this time, but I have section A, row A (center, I think), so that's not too bad. Maybe my friend and I can sneak down to the PIT-it's been done before :) (She and I had to move our trip from May to July; watch out, there'll be two Germans on da road then. ;) )

Claudia, I'm sooooo sorry for not calling you!!! This one almost slipped by me too, but thank goodness for Michelle calling me last minute. We'll do everything possible to get you in the Pit with the rest of the gang...we're gonna show LOS LOBOS fans how ONDA parties in the pit!! Did you get your Alpine tix?

Look forward to seeing you and all the others this summer ;)

[saguaro02]

No worries, Laurie! I'm sure it'll work out. :)

Didn't buy Alpine tickets this time because we'll be heading back to Germany from LAX either that Saturday already, or Sunday at the latest. If it was me alone, I probably would have gone to Alpine anyway (who needs sleep when you're on da road, right?).....

[shashavjc]

im trying to get tix to this one too - i lost my Credit Card the weekend i got back from the first show .... is there anyone that can help? I hope so.... contact me by email shashavickie@msn.com or PM id really love to get to this one

[AustinStratFan]

Oh Laurieboop...

Can I somehow connive that spare front row of yours?

That **might** make me come out for the Greek..........since that's how Hollywood got me out there the first time!

That, and I'm getting pounded on by two of the SoCal team other than you. Yes, that's what I said. And the two of them probably don't even know that the other is doing it. But they're bein' mean, they are, they are. And you both know who you are. Thankfully you're only clobberin me on MySpace...and my cell phone...and, well, y'all get the idea.

And at least one other SoCal has expressed some interest in my attendance, but at least she is being understanding.

But I've not yet heard from the OTHER SoCal that I should have heard from by now, and until that happens, I don't necessarily have a seat.

And Michelle, please, please, please ignore the above. Cuz if you say even one word, we both know what's gonna happen. And I do so dislike being told what I'm going to do...by a certain Whittier-based someone.

East Coast Team: do not give up hope. This is all blue-sky speculation at the present.

Come on lottery, come on lottery.

[shashavjc]

Now ur talkin! if i hit the lottery i'll just buy us all the front row tix we need sound good? :D Hey matter of fact as soon as i do hit the lottery you n a bunch of my La Onda family members will be Onda-road right beside the boys for a good what? month? :D ;)

[laurieboop]

I like your idea Vicki! How about we charter our own ONDA Bus to caravan with LLB --we can go on tour with them! :D

Mark, I didn't know you were being pressured by others, but I have an idea who that may be...someone not to far from me, right?? We might have to negotiate you coming down here...I totally understand why you may not be able to make it, but if where there's a will, there's a way!!!! ;)

[AustinStratFan]

Oddly enough, one has the same name as you, different spelling, and the other goes by an L*******L screen name. But, both fairly close to you...lots closer than me at least. :-) And both show up here every now and then, and both were at the Greek last year.

And weirdly, the third one - the understanding one also has an L name and was at the Greek. Most odd it is.

And all three will be there this year.

But not so much as a PEEP from the one who didn't make the Greek. (sad not-smiley)

And on a not-LLB related travel note, I'll be in LA in October 18 or 19-22 on business. At that nice big place on the same block as the Chinese Theater. For four days. I would certainly like to have supper with some of the SoCal team...if anyone is interested. Puck's maybe? Or some place where everyone would have an excuse to get real dressed up? Think about it, and let's remember to take it off-line after the Greek. But Laurie, no place with long black straws, ok?

[gigi]

You guys, I am so sorry that this was never posted and it just came to my attention tonight that it had not been done. I will take responsibility for this as I should have been checking to make sure that folks working here were doing what they were asked but I had just assumed they were. Again, sincere apologies.

Wolftrap is tomorrow by the way. I am requesting MT to send a weekly pre-sale update newletter. Please be sure that you are all able to get them and that they are not subject to your spam filters. There is one going out tomorrow and if you don't get it, please check on this.

Thanks,
Gigi

No worries, Gigi! We all know you are extremely busy. Good thing La Onda was looking out for each other, and we were ALL able to buy tickets in the Pit. However, I think Music Today should take the initiative and notify us of presale tickets via emails and/or send alerts to all of us here at the FCF. Many of us here rely on these presales to get great seats at the shows, but we also realize that MT may not always have a presale due to the venue's policy and that having a "presale" doesn't always warrant the best seats in the house! ;) Therefore, we appreciate all the advance notices we can get regarding presales.

Thanks a bunch!! :p

Mark, you are too funny with all the riddles, but I finally got it! Well if we don't see you in July, at least I know we'll be seeing you in October. Are we talking about the Kodak Theater??? Hmmmm, what kind of business??? Dinner sounds great! We'll need to round-up the gang, so we can hang out. I know of a place on top of the hill that overlooks the city and they are best known for their Mai Tai's...I promise no long black straws! Remember, I said no black straws....I believe those come with red straws :D :p :cool:

[M6L24M86]

*puts down phone*


Maybe I can MIME it to a certain someone......

[shashavjc]

=) =)

I love La Onda!
we've got a lot of talent on this thread goin on


Miming - riddles - buisness trips - the use of RED straws instead of BLACK ones - i did get to hear about that story BTW *giggles*

Looks like if indeed Mark will grace SoCal with his presense you'll all have a GREAT DEAL OF FUN!

[AustinStratFan]

Aw, there's no gracing with my presence.

Just ask any Loopie - ask ALL the Loopies.

You can't take me ANYWHERE.

I stab myself in the eyes, ears, nostrils...

Spill... ah...stuff...on myself

Pose for really dumb pictures in airports and offices

Don't think clearly when talking to desk clerks when signing-in

Sing while the boys sing

Dance in the water

Stand in the rain

Write setlists on my arm and hand with Sharpies where Ringo can see me

Wear ridiculous two-tone shoes

Stand mezmerized looking at Henry with my mouth hanging open until a fan whonks my arm and tells me "people are staring!"

Con fans into producing art - like ST badges and CD release party designs for me to give away

and the list goes on and on and on

The onliest (Loneliest) reason that La Onda SoCal wants me to come out is for entertainment.

:-)

AND THAT'S WHY ALL MY SHOW MONEY WILL BE SPENT ON THE EAST COAST THIS YEAR. THEY DON'T KNOW TO LAUGH AT ME!

S O T H E R E !!!!!

And Michelle, you'd better NOT!

[llbheaven]

Ah, Mark! I was witness to the "black straw incident!" That better not deter you from coming out to the Greek (even though it happened in Vegas, and we all know that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas!) We NEED your presence at the Greek! It wouldn't be the same without you!!! What can we do to persuade you to join us?!!

[letsgetlonelyin]

Mark We will love to have you at all the East Coast Shows!
You have just descibed the behavior of most of us Loopies and Lonelies CRAZY FOR OUR BOYS!

[mmmbopnmommy]

Mark We will love to have you at all the East Coast Shows!
You have just descibed the behavior of most of us Loopies and Lonelies CRAZY FOR OUR BOYS!
I've got to agree w/ Amy on this one! Mark--- come to us! You'll fit right in!! LOL

[laurieboop]

For the record, Mark...SO CAL ONDA does not laugh at you, WE laugh with YOU! You know how crazy the pit gets...I promise no straws of any color will be near you...maybe me, but not you!

We won't be selfish Mark, we'll share you with the East Coast..who knows, maybe I'll join you all over there! I told Amy last year in Vegas that I was going to try to make it out there this year. Keeping my fingers crossed! ;)

[tinky]

Mr. Mark.......... You gotta come to the Greek, who will I dance with? :confused:

[AustinStratFan]

I'm sure SOMEONE will rescue _you_!

But he might be wearin' Staceys.

:-)

Now Miss Martha, perhaps I will listen to your gentle persuasion. But these threats! HARRRRUMPH!

Besides, everybody knows that if I fly out, someone's going to have a baby and then ZIP, no show!!!!!!!

[shashavjc]

:D
Mark how can u refuse requests like this????

I can see all of their faces doing the sad puppyface look
i'll bet you can see it too if you stare hard enough into
your computer screen.....

Go ahead give it a try....

=)

GREEK THEATRE really must be a great venue - attracting a lot of out of state LaOnda, also. I am excited and glad I am going this year. Also, anxious to hear some of Los Lonely Boys new songs.

Debbie, I met you last year at ODR 3 outside of STUBBS. I still have your card and picture you made of LLB on my Refridgerator - hall of fame.
Glad you are coming, hope to see you and others.

Looking forward to seeing you and Los Lonely Boys.

I AM SO EXCITED, just listened for about the 10th time, to the new song
STAYING WITH ME. I just love this song, my kind of music.
I have sent a link to this song, to everyone I have on my e-mail list, and so far - response has been Postive. I think I made some new converts.

Margie - with your help! Yes! So I'll see y'all down there! Thanks so much for your help, Margie. Y'know me, so out of the loop.

[llbeagle]

I think ya'll can probably sneak Bernadette up front in your pocket -- she is so petite ! Hey B--- i'm tied with you for being "out of the loop" and maybe tied with you on show #s...i need a recount, i'm somewhere in the low 20's

[carollg]

Just curious, has anyone received these tickets yet? I've received other future shows, but not the Greek?? :eek:

Carol: I ordered my tickets thru tix@music today and confirmation order receipt says Tickets will be shipped two weeks prior to event (or poss. earlier). If you don't recv. tix w/in one week of event to contact them.
I haven't received tickets yet, either. Probably not till beginning of July.
See you there. I haven't been to the LA Greek theatre, haven't been in LA in years. Is it closer to fly into LAX or Burbank?

Margie: Good to know.....I did check the confirmation and made sure to understand how they tix arrive. Of course I'm no expert when it comes to flying (gave up my Austin show tickets because of it, but also couldn't find a ride-share), but I know Burbank is a smaller airport and closer to the Greek. I can't wait for the Greek, it's so up close in the PIT, so much fun ! See ya there. :)
~carol

[carollg]

WOO HOO...received my tix in the mail today ! Feel so much better now..... :D
~carol

[laurieboop]

Me too!!! Can't wait to see you all @ the Greek!!! :cool:

Margie, Burbank Airport is closer to the Greek, but it may be cheaper to fly into LAX....check prices.

[Tasina]

YAY! we got ours today too. . See ya in the PIT!

[tinky]

I got mine today too!! Can't wait ............ :D

[llbheaven]

I got mine on Saturday! Whoohoo!

But, on Friday we filled up both our cars at Costco and it came to $115!!! I have a van which takes more gas, but Rob has a little Subaru wagon. I kept saying, "How are we going to be able to afford to drive down to the Greek?" Yikes! Guess we'll have to cut back somewhere so we can get down to LA! :eek:

I hear you, Martha! For that same reason, I'm reconsidering the Monterey show. It's times like this when I wish I had a fuel-efficient car!!!

See you all at the Greek!!!
