Mystery Show Revealed (SOLD-OUT)

Harvester · June 23rd, 2007, 12:58 PM

I'm very proud to announce that for the first time ever in his illustrious career, Jon Oliva will take the stage and perform an intimate one man acoustic show. In addition to performing his biggest hits and favorite songs, the Mountain King will be telling the history behind each song along with sharing stories from the road. If you have seen any of the VH1 Storytellers episodes, you know just how special and unique this show is going to be.

As I said previously, I'm only selling 200 tickets regardless of the demand. As of 1:45pm, there were only 40 tickets left. Also, a word of warning in regards to standing in line prior to the door opening at 6pm. I will tell you now that the first row of tables directly in front of the stage will be reserved for me and my crew.

cheers,

Glenn

Jibrille · June 23rd, 2007, 12:59 PM

Nice! A number of people guessed JoP though I would say this is certainly much more exclusive than the band playing.

Pellaz · June 23rd, 2007, 01:11 PM

Wow, looks like I -just- did sneak in with my purchase of two at about 5 'til....

Awesome news, Glenn! I was privileged to get a preview of Jon's raconteuring abilities a few years ago at PP, when he regaled a small group of us with tales from his, err, illustrious high-school career. This will be well-worth it.

I have a feeling a bunch of tickets will end up on ebay soon enough, though considering it'll likely be scalpers, I can see the prices being way too high.

kittybeast · June 23rd, 2007, 01:26 PM

THANK YOU GLENN!!! I couldn't make it up to the BARfest and this totally makes my day!! note to Savaron- nice call aren't you glad you bought tix blindly? See you all in Rocktober!!!

sh0kr0k · June 23rd, 2007, 01:31 PM

Absolutely awesome news! Thanks for pulling this off for us, Glenn! This further proves you are, in fact, The Man!

Chris Rifkin(HalcyonF5 and Stu · June 23rd, 2007, 01:53 PM

Fucking piece of shit wireless card was crapping out all day,finally for some reason decides to work,and its sold out

I hope whomever is working at the customer service center has extra Kleenex on Mon,because I will make service reps hang up on me sobbing for this!!!!

Well.........so .................unless by some miracle I can find a ticket for cost....who else is hanging at the Cheetah that night all night(something I DID NOT WANT TO MAKE AN ALL NIGHT deal)

Can you tell I'm slightly perturbed?

PatrickHoyt · June 23rd, 2007, 01:54 PM

There wasn't a doubt in my mind Glenn would deliver something extraordinary...I'd say it would be hard to top something like this, but Im sure by next year Glenn will come up with something even more crazy and amazing as this (no matter how difficult it will be.)

Thank you Glenn!

now when are you announcing a special Tuesday night event?

mtndewqueen88 · June 23rd, 2007, 01:58 PM

WOW, That's pretty incredible! Thanks Glenn!
