Far as I can tell, you can still get tickets for upcoming shows to Clap Your Hands Say Yeah at the Metro (or Lolla), Tegan and Sara at the Portage, Rilo Kiley at the Riviera, and The Shins at Meigs Field, All in the next 4 months in Chicago. Those are 4 of the top 6 acts I want to see but have yet to see. Anybody know how I can get tickets to Bright Eyes or Jay-Z in the next 12 months? Or Sun Kil Moon for that matter? Perhaps I'm behind the times, but Chicago seems to be drawing a goodly percentage of the acts most wanted.

Wow, it's starting to be very hard to get tickets for anything if you don't sign up for fan clubs to every single band that may be touring at some point in the future so you can buy during a pre-sale. Lame.

Only lawn seats are left for Wilco, and those don't even include a view of the band. The sound is pretty seat from the lawn though.
