Probably has something to do with when the show start?

Everybody coming to our pre show will get a signed print drawn my Simpsons animator Edwin Aguilar

My husband seems to be more excited about this print than about the actual preshow. Haha

Hmmm interesting that's earlier than I thought. Sounds like there will likely be a separate area for pre-show ticket holders to assemble, so that may answer some questions people had about lines.

I wonder exactly how long the sound check will last.

I found a hotel within walking distance of the venue I'm going to, so I'd actually be ok with an early-ish sound check and then having a few hours of downtime between that and the actual show to go drop off any posters/merch and take advantage of free hotel beverages, but I could see where that early time could be a conflict for some as well.

I don't know what to do... I WANT to be in the first row, and I wonder if the people with pre show packages must queue again for the main show or not... If yes, they will be in the back, won't they? I don't know...

I would pay 75 for just the drawing.

For those of you going to the early shows in the tour, I’d love to hear your experience with this! I’m curious whether it is like a pre-show performance or if it is more like just sitting in the corner watching the soundcheck.

Where did you find the exact times? Not on http://tgapreshowpackage.com, as far as I can see?

More specific, do you know the exact time for the Brussels preshow? Smile

And indeed, it would be lovely if the people that are going could share their experiences, I'd love to know if it's worth it.

I got an email with the details for the show I purchased the preshow package for. I guess it depends on the door times and the venue policies but I think I remember that Alex said on twitter that all preshows are around that time.

A friend of mine text me that Gaslight will apparently be hanging out and eating pizza with the pre-show ticket holders after the pre-show tomorrow.

Indeed they are. I wonder if they are going to do something for every pre-show.

I'm pretty excited to hear back from people who get to go to the pre-show. I have my tickets for Nashville. Can't wait!

I did not buy a pre-show package, and have planned my schedule to arrive while the pre-show is going on so that I specifically get a better spot in line than the ones who are in the pre-show.

I didn't do the preshow for DC but if anyone's wondering, there were 19 people.

Wow that isn't a lot of people. I'm OK with losing a front row spot in the show to do this. I've been front row several times now (which don't get me wrong freakin rocks), but this is something I may not get another chance to do.

Except that people may save the places of those in the preshow when they drop out of line. I know if I was in line and someone asked me I'd save their spot no problem.

That's even less than I estimated. I hope they do sell more as the tour goes on. With the perks they added in the last weeks and the relatively low number of people attending, it sounds even more like a great and intimate experience and well worth the price!

I also didn't do it (I was with Shelby's pack - hello, all) but spoke with a few folks who did it and some venue staff as well. The 930 Club is a bit different in terms of how they do entrance to the venue - the first 35 people in line are allowed into the "Backbar" to order food and drinks about an hour before doors, and then are allowed on the floor five minutes before doors open to allow for them to get their spots. I was told (by the venue) that they allowed the preshow patrons into Backbar, and then counted off the rest from the general line outside to total 35. I should note that more than 16 of us were allowed downstairs, so it may be that not everyone who did the preshow chose to stay at the venue and instead went elsewhere to eat, drink, etc.

Reviews were mixed (I didn't hear anyone say it was "great" but no one said "awful" either). They let everyone in about a half an hour after the listed time, and the band played for about five or six songs - nothing I'd considered super rare, but not necessarily things I'd expect to hear on this tour ("Drive", "Navesink" and some others). I didn't get into specifics on the cameras, etc. The band then sent out pizza based on the tweets from the other day - some were disappointed because they thought the band would be eating pizza WITH them, whereas eventually Alex L. and Benny came out to chat but the others did not. Since I wasn't part of it, I won't speak to the value, and I won't speak to whether things smooth out as the tour moves forward.

Thank you for sharing. Really curious to hear more experiences as the tour goes on at a couple different venues before I decide to purchase. Only 19 people seems like a very small number for an area where they have a big following.... in some of the areas where they're not as popular, what would happen if only 4 or 5 people showed up for the pre-show!? LOL I mean, in a way it might be cool, but does anyone else think that might be sort of, uh, awkward as well?

I've done pre-show things where there were literally only me and 3 other people (granted, it was for a band smaller than Gaslight) and it was awesome. With someone as charismatic as Brian, I imagine it would be a great experience. I could only see it being awkward if the band made it that way (or if you would otherwise feel awkward having a band essentially playing for a small group).
