chaos in tejas tickets on sale now!

as you may well already know, tickets for chaos in tejas are on sale and going fast.

tickets for emo's shows are available through ticketweb. we just put up 100 more tickets for the BASTARD/SUBHUMANS/MARKED MEN/&c show, so jump on that shit. it sold out the first go-round and undoubtedly will again.

tickets for shows at red 7 and mohawk are available through transmission entertainment/front gate tickets.

tickets for the shows at beerland are available through ticketweb as well. one very fucking important thing and one less important but still good to know thing, respectively: 1) beerland is 21+. we're very sorry, but you can't get in if you're underage. no two ways about it. please understand this before you buy your ticket. 2) some people have been having issues with ticketweb in firefox. if you're getting errors, try a different internet browser or call ticketweb at 1-866-777-8932 to place a phone order. also, beerland has a very small capacity (175), so if you want to get in to one of these shows, buy a gd ticket!

if you live in austin, various tickets are available in person at end of an ear records on south 1st. if you see that something's sold out online, check there first.

for the most up to date news, become a fan of chaos in tejas 2010 on facebook. lots of people are also selling 4 or 5 show passes on the wall and in the discussion area... check there when you sleep on buying tickets now and inevitably panic because the show has sold out and you've already bought your plane ticket and what are you going to do oh fuck!
