Thom Yorke / Atoms for Peace Tour Announced

I’ll see you in Boston Thom!!!

If I can raise enough money I’ll hopefully see them in Boston as well.

See you again in Santa Barbara Thom! Anyone know what the deal is with the tix going on sale first at waste then at ticketmaster 3 days later? Is it possible it could sell out through waste before even getting to ticketmaster? Has anyone dealt with this sort of thing before whilst getting tickets?

usually the tix on w.a.s.t.e are for the pit, as they were for the in rainbows tour. then everything else on ticketmaster.

Seeing you both nights in Chicago. Also, the venue is three blocks away from my house. Sweetness.

I hope they do the UK at some point…

What Thom, no love for Canada? Come on man, we’re dieing up here!

GODDAMNIT!!! I’m gonna be out of town during the chicago weekend…GRRRRRR

I really hope atoms for peace grace Scotland with thier presense…

In this new band Thom can show his Mr. Hyde side.
Urgh !!
Wasn’t he shy ??

I miss the old Thom.

I just want to know what TIME the waste tix are going on sale.

looks like thom couldn’t handle phil getting all the attention. fan wars in april.

stop yapping negativity! does anybody know around what time waste tix usually go on sale?

No, I want to see more negative comments about Thomas. Like how he changes so drastically from when he’s playing with Radiohead to when he plays solo or with another band.

“Thomas” changes so “drastically” when he is playing solo or with another band because he is so talented that only Radiohead or it’s style isn’t enough anymore to contain everything he has inside his head. There are many “Thomas” and we are lucky for living at same time as him so we can witness everything he can do.

i hope they to mexico city

i hope they come to mexico city

Oh snap! Hehe.

Praise Jah for Mr. Yorke. He answered my prayers exactly at the perfect time. I just finally paid off all my debt from seeing the In Rainbows tour at lalla and Day Dream Festival. Bad fuckin ass Thom. Thank you so and the rest of ya. I pray that I see ya both nights in Chi. Honestly Thom, this is epic. Since I heard the news like 6 days ago, I have nearly shutdown. I am surprised that I have still attended classes and gone to work. Oh Thom, praise thee.

how could w.a.s.t.e sell out for both Roseland shows in less than 3 minutes…? Tickets looked like they went on sale at 10, and by 10:03, they said “allocation sold out”.

the waste sale for NYC was insane! my friend was up all night and at the lat min we got tix but they went so fast I really feel bad for those who didn’t get one

Chicago!!!!!!! I had two computers going at once, got them on one, and by the time I refreshed the other they were already sold out. They went on sale at 10:00am CST. Can’t wait!

yes indeed, Chicago!!!!!! scored two myself for Sunday.thanks Thom.

for the people that scored tix –how much were they?

$50/per. Tickets for the Saturday show were gone almost instantly.

on waste it says that the santa barbara tickets are on sale but then it also says tickets go on sale on Mar. 6th at 11am. i’m confused are the tickets already sold out?
And they dont specify where to buy the tickets is it a waste or ticketmaster?
help me out please.

Fake Plastic –w.a.s.t.e has an allotment of pre-sale tix. So even if the presale tix are sold out (which they are) , you can buy tickets from the other sale site (ticketmaster or wherever it has listed) on the 6th at 11am

ok thanks freee.
are the pre-sale tickets better seating or cheaper?
or is it insurance that you have a ticket for sure.

Ive heard that the presale tickets are orchestra/front row tix..but I’m not sure if that’s actually true. And even if it is true, that doesnt necessarily mean ALL of the front row tix are sold through the presale. There could still very well be front row tix through the regular sale too.

From what I’ve heard though–all of the tix are the same price –$50

wow–presale tix sell out faaaaaast ….Oakland sold out in about 90 seconds

do you think there’s a higher chance of getting the tickets at ticketmaster once they go on sale? or will it be as fast as the pre-sale?
I need to get the tickets for SB, i couldnt get tickets for the orpheum or the echoplex.
I guess if all doesnt work out i could go to coachella but i just wanna see thom.
and coachella is fucking expensive.

Santa Barbara, CA sold out in less than a minute……

Fake Plastic — I have no idea. But think of it this way ….

Thom Yorke is disputably one of the most famous artists of our time….and this is Atoms For Peace’s first official tour –the maiden voyage of a new super-group. AND the venues are fairly small –theaters, not stadiums– so there are less tickets to go around, and they are usually more desirable concerts because they are more intimate….

So I wouldn’t take any chances by waiting around. Your best bet is to be on the AFP ticketmaster page exactly at the start of the sale. If you cant, then find a friend to stalk the website for you –because my guess would be that it will sell out in a couple minutes tops.

It’s not impossible to get tickets though –you just have to be ON the ticketmaster page for the event a minute before the sale time starts and refresh the page RIGHT at the start time. I did it for Oakland pre-sale tix just to see how fast they sold out. On my first try, I was able to buy tickets if I wanted them (I’m going to the Boston show though…so I didn’t…I was just curious). By the time I refreshed the page twice; they were sold out. But yea, don’t get discouraged –it’s totally possible, you just have to get there quick.

Gook Luck! –I hope you score tix

ok thanks freee i will try my best to score tickets.
i’ve been practicing trying to get ticketmaster tickets haha.
wish me luck.

I just scored 2 for sat in Chicago in regular sale almost an hour after they went on sale at ticketmaster.
Whooo WEeee

I just got Boston Tix from Ticketmaster half-an-hour ago and they offered tickets in various sections of the venue too…….from orchestra pit to balcony. Fifty bucks a pop plus the usual add-ons.

i just got two tickets to the SB BOWL.
section I…wanted better but its still pretty good.
I’m happy.

i managed to get General Admission (floor level) tix for the SB Bowl show. can’t wait!

grilled squid did you get floor seats through pre-sale?

no, i got them today from Ticketmaster. i started refreshing at 10:55 and got the prompt a few secs past 11. i did a speedy checkout and voila.

still getting chicago tickets at 6 pm/////

^^right on. i haven’t been to the Aragon in a LONG time. i think i saw the Cranberries there in 94.

still tickets both nights chicago and tickets santa barbara on Sunday morning…
Thom you should have gone south with your tour……..

@freee – I dunno about the other venues, but the Chicago Aragon Ballroom isn’t a small venue – it’s one of the biggest in Chicago, short of the stadiums.

I got a ticket for Saturday and I’m excited to go, but I can’t help but be a little disappointed it’s not in a more intimate setting like the House of Blues or even The Metro.

i’m really surprised that santa barbara isnt sold out yet.
it only seats like 4,500 which isnt that big.
somewhat disappointed, where did all the fans go?

got tickets to both Roseland shows on Sat morning…! good thing, because the cheapest they’re going for now on the ticket resale site is > $310, with some asking for > $900 !

seluropnek — Oh, I didn’t know that. I’m going to the Boston show at the Wang Theater which seats about 3,500. I knew some of the other venues were around the same and assumed the Aragon “Ballroom” would be fairly small too. How many does it hold?

Fake Plastic –yea, I’m surprised at the slow ticket sales too. I wonder if this has anything to do with the criticism Thom has faced for his newer songs sounding “too simple/bare/waning/stripped” ? Who knows. I think it’s gonna be a really dope show though *shrugs*

jmidtown– are you sure those resale sites aren’t a scam? I thought all of the tickets are on a forced will-call pickup with immediate entry into the venue required. How exactly would someone be able to resell their ticket (especially in advance)?

Aragon is 4500. It is sold out for both nights (it was, at least minutes ago). Santa Barbara is taking longer and the answer is simple: Coachella. People who go to the festival will see them there. But will be sold out until the show anyway. Both NY sold out in 10 minutes. And don’t forget, they are paperless tickets, what sends the scalpers away. No scams asking for ridiculous money for the tickets this time.

Aragon is huge! And it is beautiful. The shows there will be amazing: big venue, packed, with great music… bilss!

I also think the paperless ticket is slowing sales. No speculators SCALPERS>>>

since the tickets are paperless does this mean that the people who are selling tickets on ebay and craigslist are all scams?

Lets be real, it is not Radiohead. It is Thom, with his solo work The Eraser, and not everyone, even some Radiohead fans, are fond on it. Aside the most rabid fans some people will go out of curiosity to see what Thom does solo and with Flea – of all people. Not everyone has a grasp about his work and all the hipsters in the LA area are already set for Coachella. Even so the tour is basically sold out everywhere just one/two days since they went online. Add to that the paperless policy who scares scalpers away. New York took 10 minutes to sold out but if it wasn’t the paperless policy it would be more like 1 minute! It makes things easier for the fans and people who really want to see the shows, gives them time to buy it (although for Santa Barbara, for now, only remains the worst tickets, very far away the stage). And the shows aren’t “small” in anyway, Aragon will hold two sold out shows for 4500 people each day.

BTW, I am here thinking if they will have a new set up for the tour, something more sophisticated than those simple lights from the LA shows… I am beting they will surprise a lot of fans in this tour, have a feeling these guys will be a knock out.

does anybody know how to meet thom after the concert?
how do you know where he will be?

In terms of concerts 4,500 is actually pretty small considering the names attached. Sure, it won’t be as intimate as the LA sessions last year…but then again, as someone else said before me –these shows will most likely be better put together in terms of lighting, sound, stage set up etc

And Fake Plastic –unless you find a way backstage good luck with that …

The Echoplex in LA was the dream intimate concert. I don’t consider the new concerts that “small”. Yeah, Thom and Flea are there, but most people outside Radiohead fandom don’t have a clue about what is Thom’s solo work and WTF Flea is doing playing with him.

eh…maybe. I’ll be there with bells on though

Acho essa banda muito boa!!!! conheci a pouco tempo, as musicas Fake Plastic e No Surprise são as melhores… Moro no Brasil!!!

Thom….if I’ve said it once , I’ve said it a thousand times…..Genius. Much like “The Doctor”. Bravo!

album release date?
