That's for the CC fanclub. The Goos will get their own share of fanclub tickets to go on sale too. I just read on the Inner Machine that the presale info will be up tomorrow and some presales will begin on Wednesday.

as i mentioned somewhere before, presales are over rated. the tickets aren't necessarily the best seats and they're shuffled and have a limited number released...and as i mentioned before, if you don't want to join the inner machine, my suggestion to you would to be to find and reputable ticket agent and pay the extra 15-30 bucks to buy what you know to be good seats.

the only way presale could guarantee you a definite good spot is if it's general admission...and if that's the case please disregard what i've said.

The presale situation really depends on the fanclub. Some fanclubs are really organized and guarantee their members will get seats within the first 15 rows...usually super close. Bon Jovi comes to mind. My friend is in the fanclub and always gets 3-5th row seats. So before we all start being negative lets just see how the Inner Machine is going to set it up. I also like to look at it like ... at least I'll get to be at the show...you are guaranteed that.

ShanGoo is right. Certain bands do guarantee great seats through their fanclub whenever possible (Rascal Flatts is another band that's like that, 98% of the shows are seats in rows 1 - 10). The only downside to that is that these are normally bands that are headlining that can do that. They write it in their contracts. Goos aren't headlining this tour. I'm holding off on joining the fan club because of that. I'll take my chances with the general sale.

If you look at the ticketmaster pages for each date, it even says that the CC fanclub members have a pre-assigned password for the presale....so I'm a little nervous about this whole thing.
