We got tix for the Charleston WV show through PBS as well, my wife even got her name mentioned on TV, she was very excited!! lol

We saw Joe the last time he was at the Clay Center, and have seen Buddy Guy there several times, we saw the EXPERIENCE HENDRIX show just last night, so anyone within driving distance of Charleston don't wanna miss that one, its a nice venue - Its newer, so its not like the historic places, but a very nice room to say the least!! Im sure we will hit a few of the Ohio shows as well!! As of now, its time to countdown until the Pittsburgh show in MAY!!!!

When the tickets went on sale last year for the upcoming spring tour the pre-sale codes were posted right here on the forum by J&R under a "sticky" created in General Topics. I would expect the same this next time. The topic was started and the codes posted just one day prior to the start of most of the pre-sales. Here's a link to that topic, which still exists: https://forum.jbonamassa.com/viewtopic.php?id=25453

Re: Official 2014 Fall Tour dates posted

Just so you are warned. The fan presale is a huge pileup on the venue sales sites. Not all the seats are available in the presale and those that are go very quickly. Just because you get in on the sale doesn't mean you will get a good seat down front at the more popular venues, or any seat for that matter which has happened to some fans I know. Be ready, logged in and have all your ducks for purchase in a row because it has been a nightmare for a lot of fans. Ticketmaster sites can be a pain and I had to buy 3 seats last time because there was a single next to the two  I selected and it wouldn't let me get just the two. Scalpers are in on the presale too with automated bots that snatch up all the good seats in no time. Sometimes it is better to try and call the venue box office direct if you can.  Good luck.

Thanks for the heads up.  I will be at work that day and I already know it will be crazy busy due to a scheduled audit, so this might be challenging.  Maybe I will hide in the ladies bathroom with my laptop. LOL  I bought JB tickets once through PBS and once through TicketMaster.  On Ticketmaster the presale started at 1000 hrs, is that typical?  I anticipate an anxious day trying to make this work.

Yes the PBS seats were good.  I went to the New Orleans show November 2013.

I bought some PBS tickets last year for the Charlotte show and they were price level 2 tickets, about 15 rows back.  FYI

My tickets bought thru PBS for the May Providence show arrived today (Row V which works out to I think Row 19).  Not great, not bad.  When buying thru PBS it's a crapshoot what you end up with.  I've had better, this has to be the farthest back I have received thru this type of a deal.  I usually end up buying at least one other ticket in the presale and try to get one good seat at least.  I never have a hard time selling my extras to friends at face value.
