I’ll be trying for the LA session. Seems like a quaint little theatre. 300 seats makes me think these will go quick. I’m glad they’re non-transferable/not re-sellable, that helps the chances of people who can actually plan to attend. Good luck everyone

So, do you think it was a calculated drop as in the corresponding number spaces in each location got sent links (as in the selection has already been made) or do you think it is going to be a BLOOD BATH?

I mean, given the registration process and if they did random selection at this stage, they could very well avoid chaos, sites melting etc

But its BOC i guess

I am guessing they highlighted a different hexagon in their logo? LA is lower left!

Party on, y'all.
New York is bottom center. I like that "glowing-activated" graphic. Attending NYC won't be possible for me, sitting out the ticket sale. Next announcement I'm waiting for are the possible retail listening sessions on May 28th.

I personally think most people stand a pretty good chance of getting tickets. Good luck to us all.

I don't want to get anybody's hopes up yet but POTENTIALLY I can bring an extra person thanks to my wheelchair. Over here law states that I am allowed to bring a caretaker with me even to "technically" sold out 'concerts'.

Well buddy, you just make sure you bring someone to help YOU make sure YOU enjoy the event, make sure its the right person who can do that. Your ticket. Your event. It would almost be better if they didn't give a tool about the music tbh :wink:

Not to pry into your issues, but I've always had to contend with mental illness (social anxiety, agoraphobia and mild-to-severe psychosis) when attending live shows and concerts. It's always a bit of a challenge, but focusing on the music helps in no small degree to ease up and enjoy myself. Plus (a hunch, maybe) a venue filled with Boards of Canada fans must be one of the nicest imaginable.

Your summit-at-dawn plan doesn't sound at all bad either. :D
Yeah that's fair, good on you for keeping up the good fight and living your life! :] I think with time and enough exposure, I could get to point where I could confidantley attend live shows but at this current point, even going on a bus or a train seems like being sent on a rocket through a black hole haha. I am working on it though, step-by-step. Will try to get a ticket anyway (knowing me I'll remember at like 2pm the following day lmao). Yeah a new Boc event is gonna be legendary with some of the nicest/chillest folks around!

Thanks yeah I'm gonna have my red beanie and turqoise jumper at hand haha Will probably post on a thread on here of how it went! :D

Just got back home from Silent Green seeing Seefeel, I was thinking, this would be a great sound system to listen to the premiere of INFERNO. Hope they have enough tickets available!!!

Got link for NYC. About a 7 hour drive from Northeast Ohio. In the event I get a ticket, any carpoolers? :)

I wish they said the price beforehand so I have more than a split second to decide if its worth all the cost to fly to LA and get a place… It would be a really cool experience but then again its not like they’re playing live. I have no idea what a listening party is even like so its hard to say if its worth it.

I'm hoping everyone who received the email today (including me!) with the code will be able to buy tickets tomorrow, and then after a period of time the event organizers will "release" any tickets that weren't purchased from the initial designated group.
