Arctic Monkeys
Public on sale for this show begins 12/17 at 10am.


My two favorite bands playing together. The make a wish foundation could not plan something better for me...wait am I dying?
Been a fan of these guys for years. Used to see them in Chicago when they played the Abby Pub. Love the fact that they are making some well deserved money, but..........United Center? That's killing me. TBK sound does not fit well in a large arena. I guess the days of seeing my favorite band up close are long gone........
why would you guys play at the united center??? ive seen you guys play at great chicago venues such as the aragon. the uc is a SPORTS center. the sound is bad and you cant see the band at all. this sucks! what a wasted trip to chicago, thanks for forgetting about the fans that went to all the great places to support you guys before everyone knew who you were-maybe we will catch you the next time your in town??/
It's called success, Nataliw. If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen.
im out of the kitchen-consider it done!!!!!
I am also dissapointed at the choice of venue but that's not going to stop me from attending!!
I have a beater van just like those! Great for hauling my gear to gigs.....no one suspects
Who wants to go?

I agree that the united center is an awful venue for concerts (unless there will be a lot of explosions or people flying around on cables). There are so many better theaters here in Chicago, of varying sizes, where you can actually see the performers and the sound is cleaner. Any chance of doing an "unannounced" after show at a smaller club in the city? Many bands do that after playing huge arenas or outdoor events, as a thank you to the devoted REAL fans.
ALL of these arena venues are a terrible fit..but its time to make some bank..I suspect that their next tour will be smaller more intimate joints which I am sure they prefer too..
Is planning a St. Louis to Chicago road trip in March insane? I hope not... because I'll be packing up the car and barrelling through the snow to get there! Shitty venue or not... it's the closest I can get seeing them at home. Count me in!
I thought that Sale began on 12/6? 10 am ... dont want to miss!

Driving up from Kansas to see this amazing event. Well worth it!!
This site says the presale begins on 12/13 but Ticketmaster says it begins on 12/16. ???
Can't wait! It's going to be a killer time.
Yeah the Aragon was a great show! They're publicizing the hell out of El Camino and this tour, though - and a bigger venue means more fans for the next time around. It's not always a decision that's in the hands of the artists. There will be more shows in better places, but I'm not going to miss them rock out this one.
Have they posted or sent out the presale code for the Chicago tickets that go on sale this week?
Can't wait to see you in Denver! Play at Red Rocks! DENVER LOVES YOU
fuck the presale. I wouldnt call it an "opportunity for their loyal fans to get tickets first"...presale was sold out within 30 seconds! BS!
Please add more tickets to the presale!!! They were gone so fast and the real fans didn't even get a chance! Now the scalpers are selling them for almost $200 per ticket!
Chicago presale sold out in a minute!! Bogus. Public sales says 12/17 here, but 12/16 on ticketmaster - which is correct?
How is it that the presale tickets are sold out, when you sign in at 10am like the website said on 12/13 and its already sold out?
I signed in at ten and they were already sold out.
because its bull shit
this was total bullshit. i sat ready at 10 oclock, id been looking forward to this for weeks, and then it says it was sold out RIGHT away. not loyal at all to the fans, really really uncool.
Uber upset. Been a huge fan for years; seen you guys at every shitty venue in Chicago and now I can't get tickets to see you at UC? WTF TBK? All I wanted was to see the El Camino tour and now I'm priced out of the venue. I'm the 99% and tickets are priced for the 1%. You guys bailed at Lolla a few years ago, too. Please, please, please, play a small venue like the Abbey...
Here, here. Then TicketMaster and Stubhub gouged the tickets. $111 is shitty homie. Let's arrange a caravan to Indianapolis! I will drive.
Ya gives us lazy people something for nothing. I think they are called the 1% because that is how many have earned a legitimate job. The Black Keys have busted there ass and deserve what they earn
I hear San Francisco is a pretty chill place guys. You should swing on through. You can TOTALLY crash at my place. :)
I knew the day was coming when they would leave the small venues.....makes me sad. I saw them at the metro a couple years ago ....best show I have seen of theirs yet
My boyfriend is about to get a wonderful christmas present!!!
IM SO EXCITED!!!! I will definitely be coming to see you guys in Chicago!! Thats 2 days after my bday! And you guys are my absolute favorite!!! :)
12 Year old Johnny Sullivan posted his trick shot video back in March of 2011 using both a Black Keys song and an Artic Monkeys song for the background music. Little did he know that his 2 favorite bands would be touring together this year ! Needless to say we bought tickets to the Chicago date and are looking forward to it!
Here is the video.. enjoy ! :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvYYvKZEnRA
so where should i get tix now that i'm so late?
(had decided i couldn't afford to go then said ah eff it - i'm going!)
thx...although united center is a crappy spot to have it, i'm still dying to go.
Good
I can't wait. I'm not sure I've ever been to a concert where either band could b ew the headliner. I love them both equally!
wanna see u guys in south america!!!!
This is going to be awesome! Can't believe that Arctic Monkeys are opening! This feels like a dream
What makes Peter Parker such a applicable character is how he picks himself up and fight from end to end these issues whilst outstanding as upbeat as possible. The onthebroadway looks to have captured that tone entirely.
What about this summer?
I missed it and I really don't want to miss it again.
I was be passing through illinois back then, i could stay there for a while if knew something like this was going on..
Can't believe i missed it
