The Cure will play the Sasquatch! Festival in George, WA at The Gorge on May 29th. Passes go on sale today, Jan. 12th, at 10 am Pacific. Price is $350, and unless they change things this year, there are no single day passes. VIP Supertickets available here. Or try and win some here.
KEXP will be giving away tickets throughout the day, and 107.7 The End will be giving away tickets in the 9 am, 2 pm, and 5 pm hours.
Update: From the official site - "THE CURE ARE SCHEDULED TO PLAY FROM 11PM TO 1:30AM (CURFEW)..."
I read on the website that no single day passes. I feel bad for cure fans, you need to drop nearly 400 to see them, it's not a terrible lineup otherwise but festivel to me have always been more trouble then when they're worth. Now the tor onto waiting game continues.
ReplyDeleteA good alternative is the Vancouver BC show, which is about the same distance from Seattle, but that's been sold out for a while.
ReplyDeleteLast I knew they had 1 ticket sales for vancouver, not sure if has more than one together though. I'll be doing a bus trip tipi city for 3rd msg show if toronto doesn't pan out. I won't be going to a festival where ppl dress up like tmnt.
DeleteYeah, for that much $$, you could pretty much fly to anywhere in the country & see The Cure at any other venue, doing a full Cure set, not some "time restrictions" festival set...
ReplyDeleteGood thing I'm a 47 minute express bus ride from Madison Square Garden...
sasquatch is a jive money grab. a solo show at the gorge would have been far better...(imo)
ReplyDeleteThey tried that in 2004. Had to cancel and move to Everett Events Center due to low ticket sales.
DeleteEverett turned out to be one of the best shows of the last 15 years!
DeleteSO GLAD I traveled to see that one!
we're going to boise and bay area shows, but I was hoping for a seattle show. the cure at the gorge in the 90's was one of the top 5 shows Ive EVER seen...can't afford the festival scene. trying to win tickets.i dig the fiscal reasoning behind this, but damn it.
ReplyDeleteor...how about coax sasquatch into selling CURE-ONLY tickets via the band or here...that would be boss. sorry for the multiple posts. last one.
ReplyDeleteBoise!
ReplyDeleteThis is the exact reason that I am flying from Seattle to Las Vegas to see The Cure. 4000 people vs. 25,000 people, with pretty much the same price. Sasquatch is awesome, the Gorge is awesome, but it's the same damn cost for me to go to the Gorge for 3 days or go to Vegas for 3 days with 21,000 less people to rub elbows with.
