Certainly not limited to Fare Thee Well tweets, on the eve of the shows @thedeadblog has been heating up with with posts about the concerts. Many have focused on the stage setup at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California where tomorrow night’s show will be held.
I’m told #GD50 Chicago tix just showed up on Ticketmaster. Nothing comes up for me. My bad luck scoring tix for this enters its 5th month 🙁
