my friend said the same thing, call this number 773-472-3492

[semisorick]

Apparently it sold out in 5 minutes, which is heartbreaking.

If anybody has an extra, I would love to purchase it.

my friend called me saying he's buying a bunch for people who did favors for him...he's pretty small...I bet if I hit him hard enough the tickets would fall outta his pockets...he'd prolly pee too that'd be funny.........

(ditto on extras if i don't hit my friend)

[semisorick]

On a side note, does anybody know the deal with Bob Odenkirk's Best of Sketchfest? It is supposed to be at the iO and supposedly tickets went on sale today according to the Just for Laughs site, but I can't find a ticket link anywhere.

[JPSpaulding]

I got mine at the theater itself and I got there 5 minutes before 12 and they were already selling tickets.(sorry no extra)

My buddy was online before noon and he said it said check back later?

Maybe they will add a second show but very unlikely since there is a show before this one, ironically enough Jim Breuer(see Let America Laugh DVD).

I felt like Charlie Bucket walkin outta there

I think I saw your friend there, you can take him.

[JPSpaulding]

The box office told my friend that they might be adding a second show and to call back tomorrow

Cross your Odenkirks!*

I think this might be what you are looking for http://www.lakeshoretheater.com/buyt...ventId=1401954

[semisorick]

No, I don't think that's it...Odenkirk is hosting the Best of the Chicago Sketchfest and that seems to be standup comedians...

[JPSpaulding]

Ooops yeah wrong show I just figured it might be that because Bob will be there anyway and....

They added a second Bob and David for June 19the Friday at 12 am at the lakeshore that according to ticketweb is sold out. SO maybe Bob had to pull out of the best of sketchfest shows to do more Mr. Show shows.

I feel your pain. I was ready and waiting, and ticketweb fucked me. I got to the order form a few times, kept getting to the payment part, and it would list my total at 0$, then I'd have to start again, and the tickets would be gone. Refreshing error messages for an hour, then sold out, then hours later I find the other shows they silently added are sold out too. SO MAD.

Willing to pay big bucks for a ticket, folks...

[JPSpaulding]

This asshole is selling them for 150 a piece

Well I don't know what the heck is happening, but I saw this and bought a ticket for it:

[Pit-Pat]

You know, if anyone has a ticket.....

[Ritter]

So here's the deale-o

The Montreal people have told me that they WILL be adding a second show but they have been agonizingly slow in confirming when it will be (the 12:00 show on Friday was a TBS gaffe). Send me an email to ritter at lakeshoretheater dot com with your name and contact number and I will start a special AST list of folk that I will call BEFORE tickets for the second show go on sale.

Who's yer daddy?

[pollymaepry]

oh man, you're the best, that's the best!!

[Meagan]

Any news? Also, not to de-rail the thread, but does anyone know if Michaels Ian Black and Showalter are still performing at Lakeshore on the 17th and 18th? They're still listed on the Lakeshore site (though Robert Smigel is also listed for the exact same date and time), but not on the Just For Laughs website's schedule, and Ticketweb is saying 'tickets not available' instead of 'sold out'.
