I could definitely see them doing a surprise one off in or around Austin (unless contract forbids it) since they'd just be hanging around for a few days. That's just wishful thinking though.

(And seriously, Nebraska?)

I'm shooting for Memphis and plan to make a vacation out of it and head to the Bourbon Trail afterwards.
we put in for the Lincoln show because there is probably no other reason we will ever go to Nebraska so that seemed cool, and we put in for the Memphis show because it worked with our schedule, both seem like they could be very cool shows kinda like Charlottesville last year.
Hopefully we'll be jamming with you in Memphis!
Heck yeah, looks like it should almost be a sure thing ticket

It did in 2000, didn't it?
It did and it was awesome. Punked up Can't Help Falling in Love.
Ah man, I was there for that. I much prefer that version over the more famous Vegas version a couple of months later

Can we get a poll for what shows RMer's picked in the lotto?

Still awfully good odds for the Lincoln, NE show.

I can't imagine there is a ton of fan club members around there. I anticipate a good public turnout though.

If the odds feature is reasonably correct, it is almost unimaginable how little interest there is in the Lincoln show. Let's say there's 1000 GA tickets and 2000 reserved tickets for fan club members. (This seems conservatively high for the purposes of this analysis) At current odds of 93% on GA and 99% on reserved, that means that there have only been like 35 people request a GA pair and 10 people request reserved. That's nuts, and there's probably fewer tickets than that actually available to the fan club

I may have to go to this show somehow. I can find some business in KC and Omaha to tie in to this trip, I bet...

Probability = Tickets Available / Entries
Max = 99%

Given your example of 1000 GA tickets and odds of 93% would mean there are 1075 entries. 1000/1075 = 93%.

Odds of 99% simply mean that there are less entries than tickets available. It could mean 1 entry or 1999 entries assuming there are 2000 tickets available.

Oh. Yeah. That makes more sense.

I have high hopes for the Lincoln show as the Council Bluffs 03 show was one of my favorites.

I was there too. I remember sitting outside in the sun waiting for the ticket window to open and then downing like 2 huge Gatorades.

It was a great show. I had gone to the soaking wet KC show the night before so I was relieved to get another top notch performance.
