A post over at JanesAddiction.com details information on how to get into the private Jane’s Addiction show, part of the SXSW festival, in Austin, TX next week. They are giving away individual tickets at random to those registered users who note their desire to attend. The show is 21 and up.
Dave posted the following on his website:
The latest: We have been rehearsing all week for an upcoming private show in Austin, Texas. We have set aside a number of tickets for those of you who have signed up to the site. Stay tuned for more details on how to attend this specific event and clear your schedule the evening of the 19th.”
So for those of you living in Austin, or who are at least close enough to make a last minute trip, keep your ears open for details on seeing a private JA show in Austin next week.
Just a reminder that regular tickets for the May 27th NIN/JA show at the Starlight Theatre in Kansas City, MO go on sale this morning at 10am CT. You can buy tickets online via Ticketmaster.com.
The following ticket sale dates have been announced over on NIN.com:
All listed times are local venue times. These are the presale times listed for NIN.com, if additional presale times are announced, I will let you know.
Trent Reznor confirmed that the June 3rd NIN/JA show at Darien Lake Amphitheatre in Darien Lake, NY has been cancelled and replaced with a show on the same date at the Comcast Amphitheatre in Mansfield, MA. It has been confirmed Sounds like it is a safe bet that the Austin, TX show on May 12th is indeed a NIN/JA date.
(edit – shows were indeed confirmed as NIN/JA shows)
Trent announced the launch of the NINJA2009.com website next Friday, March 20th on his twitter feed. No word on what is going to be there, but Trent is always good with providing online content to his fans. He also announced new NIN shows in Austin on 5/12 and Mansfield, MA on 6/3. No word on if those are NINJA shows or not. NIN and Jane’s have a previously announced date on 6/3. As soon as I have something concrete, I’ll be sure to post it.
Pre-sale tickets for the May 27th NIN/JA show at the Starlight Theater in Kansas City, MO go on sale today at Noon CDT. To have access to pre-sale tickets, you need to be registered over at JanesAddiction.com. Pre-sale tickets for NIN.com members are already sold out. Pre-sale limits ticket sales at two per person, and will be available to pick up in person (with valid ID) at the venue box office on the day of the concert. Regular tickets go on sale this Friday at 10am CDT. NIN.com lists central standard time, but I’m sure that is an error.
Those of you in Europe hoping to see the fully reunited Jane’s Addiction are in luck. Jane’s is one of the numerous acts listed as taking part in both of this year’s T In The Park and Oxygen festivals. Both shows run from July 10-12th. T in The Park takes place in Balado, Kinross-Shire, Scotland, and Oxygen is at the Punchestown Racecourse, Co. Kildare, Ireland. Tickets for both are on sale now, so get them while you can. Neither show has listed exactly which date Jane’s Addiction is performing.
A Billboard article from last friday states that their sources have confirmed that Jane’s Addiction, Beastie Boys, Depeche Mode and Kings of Leon will be the headliners of Lollapalooza ’09, taking place August 7-9th at Grant Park in Chicago, IL. Lollapalooza organizers have not yet announced anyone performing at this year’s show.
Subscribers to the Lollapalooza newsletter recieved notice that presale tickets for this year’s show will go on sale soon for $60. That price is for the entire weekend, quite a deal if you are willing to buy tickets before any performers are announced.
It has been confirmed over at NIN.com that Tom Morello & Boots Riley’s new project Street Sweeper is the opener for the NIN/JA tour this spring. You can check out Streetsweeper at StreetSweeperMusic.com.
