New York 2nd show may be happening

How many tickets were available anyway?

great news. i can actually stay in nyc long enough to see what's around if they do a 2nd show.

What is the seating arrangement at the Hammerstein? Any good pubs or restaurants in the area of Hammerstein to meet up w/ other fans before/after show?

How about a 2nd show in LA? The Coachella draws many younger fans to its shows - but the older fans who have been New Order followers for 20 years will miss out (venue too far and too much time - especially if you have kids) A 2nd date that actually is in Los Angeles, I guarantee, would sell out....

Fantastic!

That's a good size venue to sell out so fast. Nice work New Order

can't wait. never been to hammerstein, but got tix on ebay.

Not surprised that NYC sold out. A second show would be great. But what would be better would be a second show in the midwest area. I haven't been following the Aragon too closely - is it also sold out? If it isn't, I'm a bit surprised. But on the other hand, I haven't seen any marketing of the Chicago show in Milwaukee.

The floor is General Admission and then there are two levels of balconies. Both of which are general admission as well, buy your ticket has to be for that section. I almost always get GA seats, cause I'm getting older and I just can't stand a whole show in a crowd much anymore. I'm only 30 but still.........

You don't pogo at a New Order gig! You Do The Ostrich!

Still think they should play DC or Atlanta!  But if the 2nd new york show is after the first one I might be able to make it.  I sure hope so!

that's just silly...

you are NOT old

I LIKE THE IDEA OF ATLANTA,AND 30 IS NOT OLD,IM TURNING 33 IN JUNE...BUT NO CROWD SURFING FOR ME...MY BACK HURTS SOMETIMES...SIGNS OF AGING..HA HA SOUTHERN BOY

Well, not really, I'd do the telephone post.

With my knee still recovering, might not be a good idea to bouce all night :p

aren't you like 7 feet tall, nic? you can just lurk.

New Order needs to do a real concert tour like Depeche Mode or The Cure, not only a few concerts like that. I'm a real fan, I have my tickets for the NYC concert and I'll travelling 8 hours from Canada to be there but I think that they have to do more. Imagine if their new album is a bomb in the US!!!

Hammerstein ballroom is great place for concerts.

I've seen Prodigy and crystal method there.

Is gonna be dope.

There's a Houlihan's on the corner across the street upstairs where I'l; be shillin.

I'll be yankeed out i think.

eCKOh

If they add a 2nd NYC show, I bet you'll be able to get tickets for the first show from the brokers really, really cheap a few days before. This is exactly what happened recently when Interpol played a couple of nights here in DC and then a third show just an hour away in Baltimore. The DC shows sold out before the events were even widely announced (and boy was I pissed!). Ticket brokers grabbed many of these tickets, yet a few days before the show they were letting the tickets go for as little as $20, well below face value. All those people trying to make a profit on Ebay may get pretty desperate too.

Here's a broker who has tons of tickets for the NYC show, all priced at over $100. If New Order adds a 2nd show, check back here around May 1st and see what the prices look like then. I hope New Order adds a second show just to screw over these guys!

well, duh- the presale was gone in what seemed to be less than 15 minutes-but I scored my 4 tix-

to those of you who haven't been to the hammerstein- THINK FLOOR , the mezzanine level and balcony are all seated, hell it made even the last chemical brothers show boring

I logged on at 11 am and ticket master did not say they were sold out and as such I messed around for 2 days trying to get the tickets.

Ticketmaster totally screwed me over. They told me tickets would go on say april 3. Only to arrive home from a party and told that they went on sale april 1, and were sold out. I was so upset. Last time i saw new order was 16 years ago when i was 12. It was a good thing i went to this party because i met someone who had hookups. I bought 4 tickets for $225.

memo to new order By playing one show in new york city, you make a lot of scalpers day.

Me neither, but it's fookin New Order, so I'll do my best and SUFFER.

And I doubt the crowd will be full of teenagers...

It goes both ways - I am going to have a hilarious time trying to rock out with people almost twice my age!

I agree, it would be hard for me to be in a seat and not want to be right up front. I guess I would take whatever the gave me considering how quickly it sold out.

Al.

Have you managed to get your ticket for New York yet ??

It's too bad to hear that the 2nd show isn't happening. I was going to seriously consider traveling to NYC for the 2nd show.

Based on the scheduled US dates, it looks like they had a narrow window for any US tour dates and maybe simply couldn't find another venue that worked for them in the time frame they had.

Or perhaps the workload of playing bass and DJing was too much for Peter Hook and he vetoed another NYC show :D
