I posted this on another thread as well:

Dunno if this has been asked or not, but as I'm freaking out today (I work at ten tomorrow and my job takes me away from computers and has strange circumstances to impede my ticket buying) but could someone tell me if fan club tickets can be bought over the phone or only by the website? Help! hehe.

United Center June 6. WOOT!

I'm assuming the FC pre-sale is online only.

As I suspected, no email.

I just got an identical email to the one from Friday... only this time the link is giving me an error. I hope they work things out soon cuz this is going to give me a heart attack (note the age, get afraid).

[Georgia Girl]

No e-mail for me either!  The link we were given in Friday's e-mail to register for the pre-sale is also not working!  Music Today does not have their act together on this one.  I'm beginning to worry a little bit.:(

I got an email about 10 minutes ago with this additional info, which we saw in '04...
TICKETS ARE LIMITED:

The pre-sale is conducted on a first-come, first-served basis. We expect the pre-sale allocation of some shows to sell out based on limited availability and demand. Limits range from 2-4 tickets per person/per show. The TOTAL number of tickets that any one participant may purchase during the Fan Club pre-sale is eight (8). All policies and guidelines are stated clearly on the ticket site. Please take some time to familiarize yourself with these policies prior to ordering. Please be aware that the pre-sale is intended for the use and enjoyment of eligible R.E.M. Fan Club members; we do not tolerate the re-selling of these tickets and will cancel orders and memberships if warranted.

*Eligible fan club members are those members who were signed up by January 28.

Beginning of email states:

Hello From R.E.M. HQ!

Tickets for R.E.M.'s tour of North America will go on sale to eligible Fan Club members* at 10:00AM (ET) on Tuesday, April 1 (tomorrow). The exclusive Fan Club pre-sale ends on Wednesday, April 2, at 10:00AM (ET). After this time, the ticket sale will still be accessible to Fan Club members in addition to the R.E.M. Online Fan Community. The general public ticket sale for shows included in the pre-sale begins on Friday.


(Hopefully that helps those people who let their FC membership lapse.)

I apologize for posting this twice:

Has anyone from the Online Fan Community (but not the Fan Club) received an email about this yet?  I'm one of those people who let their membership lapse.
