Josh Radin Passes Update

February 20th, 2009

We had an extremely enthusiastic student response to our upcoming Joshua Radin concert on March 1st and all available passes have been picked up from the Norris Box Office. If students are still looking to attend the event, the best option is to find a friend with an extra pass. However, in an effort to fill as many seats as possible, a pass will only guarantee a seat if presented no later than 8:20 pm (10 minutes before the start of the event). At that point we will begin seating students without passes and any empty seat will be filled.


Demetri Martin Ticketing Update

February 19th, 2009

While A&O is always excited to be producing a popular event such as “An Evening With Demetri Martin,” it’s always extremely disappointing when there are those who would like to attend but can’t get a hold of a ticket for the event.  A&O has always made an effort to allow as many students as possible to attend our events, and has worked hard in the past few days to free up a small number of additional tickets to be released to students.

The tickets will be available starting at noon on Friday, February 20th, using the same online ticketing system as used in the first round of ticketing.  Students will be able to buy 1 ticket per NetID, and will be unable to purchase another ticket if they got one during the first round.

The link for the ticketing website is here: http://nbo.universitytickets.com/user_pages/category.asp?id=22

As always, check our website for the latest on this and all of our other events.
