That’s what people in our message board are thinking. With only 2,800 tickets available, and on a weekend date, it seems likely that the show was drawing lots of people from the region, not just Columbus.

Yeah – I know a few Yorkers that were going to fly in for it, but almost everyone I talked to got shut out.
The show definitely sold out in about 30 seconds. If you refreshed at all, you got NOTHING.
Yep. I was luck enough to get 2…but around 10+ of my friends failed to pull them in. Officially, it says it sold out by 10:03. But my friends say they were cut off before 30 seconds in…
yeah anything after 30 seconds… no dice
I logged in right at 10 – got nothing, so this show was s/o in under a minute for sure.
This was total LUCK of the draw, tons of my friends were also shut out.
This sucks so hard right now. At least I saved 200 bones.
This who know how this works…
it may say sold out at 10:03 but that really means 10:01 in real ticketmaster time.
Waits sold out the Ohio in less than a minute.
Definitely less than a minute. And you can probably draw a big fat circle north of Columbus and assume that any Tom Waits fans inside that circle were trying for tickets. Considering the population density… must have been a lot. I was lucky enough to get tickets (pretty amazing seats as well) but sadly none of my friends will be with me…
draw a huge circle
one that stretches to Boston in the east and Chicago to the west.
Toronto to the north and Lexington to the south.
Yup, I’m headed up and over from D.C. This is what happens when he tours with this kind of frequency.
got tickets at 10:19 on a shit internet connection for the columbus show, but like many of you I am the only one of my friends that got a ticket, my girl is pissed at me for not getting her one but understands that if it was only possible to get one than good for me. I have tried for years to get tics, and not from stubhub or scalpers, and have had no luck. So I will be back in my home town seeing the show, pals of mine and good people are having a get together in the “BUS” so let me know if any would like to come, if not i’ll see you at the show
wishing the best
sounds like you need to set your clock – it was about 18 minutes slow.
Phoenix sold out in under 6 minutes, 2 nights.
you lost a lifetime experience! I have been waiting and trying for ten years!
My buddy and I are driving in from Philly… where can we have a memorable time? We have waited a long time to be a part of this!
anyone gathering before or after?
A lot of people will be here before the event:

I had three other guys at work trying to get me tickets. One got denied….I drove down from Buffalo NY. What a show. Columbus has a great downtown.
