Stand Up for a Cure is a non-profit organization dedicated to eradicating lung cancer through strategic partnerships with some of the finest medical institutions in the world. Stand Up for a Cure was founded to raise awareness and funding for lung cancer research, treatment and education. With a new case being diagnosed approximately every 3 minutes and a grim 5-year survival rate of only 14%, there exists a profound need for an urgent response.

So, if you request warehouse tickets, what tier are you requesting for? I don't want to be forced to pay for top or second tier tickets if I get confirmed.

Clever event title.

Here's what the warehouse request page says:

I know it's a benefit, but those are some expensive tickets to see rehashed set lists.

I know it's a benefit, but those are some expensive tickets to see rehashed set lists.

True. I'll probably be ready to see the band again by September. It'll be 3 months after I see them during the summer tour.

[Coldchillin]

I will always love seeing DMB. It's always fun, I just always have a semi-sour taste in my mouth afterwards lately.

Tickets are more expensive every year while the setlists get worse (typically).

[markTR]

$130/80 seats behind the stage?

[Kahn]

I want to slash the tires of the guy who thought up the 'clever' name

[GSR]

What/where do you think is my best bet for getting three reasonably priced tickets?

[wkpggrvn2001]

are you looking for scalped tickets to a benefit?

[GSR]

No, I was talking about online.

[Easy E]

i'll be there tonight. I'll let you now later where you could have bought tickets

[hofdaddy]

didn't know you needed them Marvin. I would have sold you mine. I could ask the person I sold them to to just give them back but I'm not Native American. If I were, you'd have some tickets but I'm not so I don't think I can help you.
