Atlanta

Tickets for Radiohead’s show in Atlanta on July 30 sold out in about 4 minutes today. Also, the August 1 show in Chicago and the August 17 show in New Jersey both sold out pretty fast. All of the rest of the shows should be available through Ticketmaster except for the Boston show, which tickets can be purchased through tickets.com. {thanks to Charlie}

But wait? What about the Philadelphia show? Is it still happening?
We heard that a local radio station in Philadelphia reported that the show was not happening. This was the response from w.a.s.t.e.: “The show for Philadelphia has not been determined yet. I do not have a definite answer yet, but you may want to keep updated @ http://www.waste.uk.comhttp://www.waste.uk.com or http://www.radiohead.com for all details.”{thanks to Peaysjay52}

Tickets, tickets tickets!

Did you get yours? Today, presale tickets went on sale at MTV.com and Ticketmaster and as usual, we have dozens upon dozens of email from fans who either didn’t get tickets or who did. We got news that the allotment for most of the Atlanta and New Jersey tickets to sell during the presale today sold out within an hour, which isn’t surprising. If you couldn’t get tickets online, the general sale for most of the second leg North American shows go on sale at Ticketmaster.com or Ticketmaster outlets on June 16. Check the tour dates page for more info.

As far as we know, tickets for the August 20 show at the Hollywood Bowl will not go on sale until July 7. Also, we don’t know anything about the Philadelphia show. It may be that it has been scrapped and will not happen. Once we know anything, it’ll be here.

Tickets for the August 14 show in Boston went on presale today at tickets.com. General sale will occur on June 16 at ALL STRAWBERRIES MUSIC AND VIDEO STORES AND VIA TELEPHONE AT (800) 477-6849. Check the tour dates page for more info.

w.a.s.t.e. now has some more tickets available for the July 7 show in Oxford! Hurry! {thanks to Jose Alberto}

We’ve also learned that the Zodiac Club in Oxford will begin selling 2000 tickets at the club starting at noon until 6pm this Saturday. The reason more tickets are going to be available locally is best summed up by club manager Nick Moorbath:

“A lot of people have been phoning up to say that they are still trying to get hold of tickets, so we are pleased that a new public entertainment licence has been allowed, which means we can increase the capacity by another 2,000. Selling the tickets locally should mean that they go to local people, and that keeps the amount of traffic down.”

Fans need to turn up in person and there will be a limit of four tickets to each buyer in a bid to stop touts. {thanks to Michael}

Amnesiac to enter Billboard 200 at #2

Radiohead’s Amnesiac will enter the Billboard 200 chart at #2, only 13,000 albums short of the #1 spot, which is being held by Staind for the second week in a row. Get out your “stain remover” and let’s hope that next week is different! Haha… that was weak.
