You have to sign up for the fan club- $30 (I know, I didn't want to spend it either) but then from THEIR web site tour page you can buy tickets for Nassau dates.
I just did :)
Claud- your coming to the concert with me and my sister

Good for you. Is it sold-out now? I cannot believe that they didn't give fan club members first dibs at floor seats but since Claud and I are so short we cannot see very well from the floor anyway
We'll have to met up in the lobby during the concert.

Michele, I *prefer* vertically challenged!

I recently went to see Peter Gabriel 'in the round' at MSG and it was awesome, even from the upper levels...so, with that type of set up, I don't think you can lose.

But, good for you Jodi on scoring the 2nd row seats!

haha good thing then they dont sell seats according to height or they would be sticking me in tier 4 row Z.
When it gets closer we can pick a place to meet and say HI

Edited to say I know they added a 2nd show on to the garden and I beleive all 3 shows were sold out in about an hour.
I think there are only single seats left.

Jodi, they aren't sold out, I got them for Nassau. They are the higher up seats for $45..but from what others have said, every seat is good. I just didn't want to spend $85!!

Due to the recent comments from the lead singer about our President, I will not be going to the concert. I just sold the tickets to a friend.

Now I'm in the I don't like the Dixie Chicks fan club I guess!

I applaud you for your decision. I am also turned off by the comments and have no desire to support them.

I just heard of a recent boycott with them - what specifically did she say?

Re: Dixie Chick Tickets- Here's how to get them

There are alot of ppl boycotting this war..and although I believe that we need to do this to defend our country I also beleive that Ppl have the right to voice there opinions and feel however they want.
That is what is so wonderful about our country.
Our freedom of speach
Unless they did or said something that would directly hurt the american ppl I wouldnt trade in my 2 row seats for anything!
But I still dont even know what they said

Jab at Bush a flop for Dixie Chicks
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
It is a cautionary tale during wartime: Tolerance for cheeky celebrities is getting low indeed. Just ask the Dixie Chicks, who quickly discovered their timing was off — and that country music fans want to keep the country in their music.
The lead singer of the popular girl group ruffled fans' feathers last Monday when she stopped wailing about menfolk in song long enough to deliver political commentary on President Bush.
'Just so you know, we're ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas,' Natalie Maines told a London audience — which roared its approval.
Yesterday, Miss Maines issued a public apology to Mr. Bush for being 'disrespectful.' And no wonder. When news of her criticism reached the United States, country music fans took down their shootin' irons and went to war.
Some immediately called for a boycott of the Dixie Chicks, who won three Grammys last month — some 13 years after they started out playing bluegrass on the streets of Dallas. A few fans suggested the group change its name to 'Terrorist Chicks.'
'This remark has really struck a nerve,' said Jon Anthony, music director and afternoon personality for Washington-based country radio station WMZQ-FM.
'Now, Natalie Maines has a right to speak her mind,' he said Friday, 'but a lot of folks think she was disrespectful because she made that comment on foreign soil. We're hearing from people who want to boycott the Dixie Chicks, their sponsors, and even protest their concerts.'
Stations in Dallas, Kansas City, Mo., and Nashville, Tenn., reported getting hundreds of phone calls.
'Dump that anti-America group. Obviously, this group intends to give aid and comfort to a known killer of the innocent,' wrote one visitor at an online message board sponsored by ABC affiliate KMBC in Kansas City.
'When do 'celebs' finally realize they have an obligation to the fans that pay them millions? ... Let them go give a concert in Baghdad,' he concluded.
Some observers supported the Chicks' right to free speech.
Nevertheless, all three country stations in Kansas City stopped playing their songs. One Missouri station set out a trash can Friday morning for listeners who felt compelled to toss the group's CDs; another logged 700 protest calls on Thursday alone. In Bossier City, La., KRMD organized a'Dixie Chicks Destruction,' running over CDs with a tractor.
The trio first issued a clarification of Miss Maines' remarks Friday.
'We've been overseas for several weeks and have been reading and following the news accounts of our government's position,' the group stated. 'The anti-American sentiment that has unfolded here is astounding. While we support our troops, there is nothing more frightening than the notion of going to war with Iraq and the prospect of all the innocent lives that will be lost.'
The statement continued with a personal message from Miss Maines: 'The president is ignoring the opinions of many in the United States and alienating the rest of the world. My comments were made in frustration and one of the privileges of being an American is you are free to voice your own point of view.'
Miss Maines sounded chastened in her hastily written apology yesterday. 'As a concerned American citizen, I apologize to President Bush because my remark was disrespectful,' the singer said. 'I feel that whoever holds that office should be treated with the utmost respect.'

Stating one's opinon about how best to deal with terrorism, evil, human rights violations, etc. is one thing but in my opinion, saying you are ashamed of our president, especially while you are on foreign soil, is uncalled for when one is on stage to entertain with their music, not there to give political commentary.

She can say whatever she wants, but she has to be ready to accept that her fans don't think very highly of her opinions and will form there opinions of her based on her actions as whole, not just her singing voice.

Sorry, I think that every american has a right to publically state their opinion about anything. That is what makes this country great. I for one am ashamed that our president has decided to go against the UN when Iraq has not attacked our country. The truth is there were many countries involved with supporting the 9/11 and other terriorist activities yet we are focused on Iraq. Now when North Korea decides to invade another country what power will the UN have? None. Plus there are lots of other reasons to NOT like Bush. This is just the one that will hurt the most people.
