Concerts: The Flaming Lips, Ne-Yo and Slipknot presales
Posted

9:44 am
Flaming Lips fans can score some exclusive content by buying tickets online for the group’s Aug. 21 show at Concerts at Marymoor.
The online tickets cost an extra $4 but include a “digital bundle,” featuring three tracks from the group’s upcoming album, three b-sides hand picked by frontman Wayne Coyne, and a live audio recording of the Marymoor show itself. See below for presale info to the show.
And speaking of special promotions: Comcast Arena is still urging locals to vote in Kiss’ fan-routed tour, which features Buckcherry as an opener.
The tour is billed as being the first fan-routed tour ever. Basically, the group will play cities where they have a proven fanbase, scheduling concerts in areas based on online votes. Voting ends June 30.
Comcast Arena said that after it sent an e-mail blast to its Cyber Club members, the Seattle metro area rose in the standings by 18 spots, and is now holding steady at No. 16. (Note: While Everett votes are lumped into the Seattle metro area category, you can put in an Everett ZIP code, so tour managers know specifically where you’re from.)
Click here to go vote. C’mon! Gene Simmons in Everett! That’d be at least a little great, right?
