we have two very small independent record/CD stores left in our area, and this saturday the foo fighters are going to perform a concert at one of them.

criteria:

you must pre-order their new album tomorrow morning at 10:00am IN PERSON at the store to get a ticket.

the place is no bigger than a school classroom.....i am really looking forward as to how they plan on pulling this off. i figure the line is starting already.

FYI

dave grohl was born about 5 miles from the store.

update:

the story is on the front page of both local "newspapers" (advertising rags actually) and people started lining up at the record store yesterday at noon. the album pre-sale starts today at 10:00, i figure that there is probably about 1000 people there by now.

i am quite interested in the logistics of this thing.........the parking lots holds about 100 cars. and i wonder how many albums they will pre-sell?

went on as planned yesterday.....all over the local paper.

foo fighters did a one hour set then went on cleveland for the rock hall induction ceremony.

150 people got in......no problems at all....they played in a neighboring store that was unoccupied.
