This Redondo Beach concert is on a Friday. What about Las Vegas the next day? Not to be greedy, but it's only a 4-5 hour drive. Or a 1hr 10min flight from LAX, which is near Redondo Beach, for about $100. Not the best time of year for Vegas, but we could put up with 110 degree heat for a few hours. It is really not that hot in Vegas in Sept. How about we start a petition to get her there? I would love to do this one. I will be the first signer. Jackie please do a concert at the Smith Center Las Vegas NV Sept 9th 2017 Richard ScharschSorry, Napa, CA is on the 9th, see another thread. I am reading only 45 tickets sold so far, only the 1st and 2nd row. Lots of seats in the 2nd row. What is going on, 45 seats sold in one month? No advertising I guess. Don

Well, it was fun to fantasize a bit. I checked and Sept. 9 is the opening of the symphony's season at Reynolds Hall. Too bad. That's one of the better sounding concert halls. At any rate, if people don't start buying tickets to this Redondo Beach concert, I may be visiting Texas in the fall, after all. The venue at least needs to list her concert on their schedule to get people to buy the tickets. I looked up this guy, John Kempton Bryan who's been posting about Jackie and the Redondo concert on his Facebook and claims he's repping her for the concert.. He lives in LA and appears to work for a tiny, (maybe two-man) concert promoter and production outfit, called ICMG Global. I'd contact him on Facebook and tell him to ramp up the promo if he wants to sell Jackie tix. They may not have a big enough budget to start this soon, though. Maybe, waiting till August.

I have contacted the Redondo Beach Perf. Arts Ctr and let them know that Jackie was not listed on their events calendar. They responded back and said that they were not aware of the error and would put it on the calendar right away. I checked this morning and it is now listed on the calendar.

Only 6 seats (me counting seats in the first few rows) sold since I checked 10 days ago. That's less than a seat per day. Many second row seats still empty. When I Google "Jackie Evancho", "Redondo" I get dozens of ticket resellers. Fortunately Etix.com comes up first. Resellers make their ads look "official", but never give the official ticket site, just outrageous ticket prices. Bunch of leeches! Makes you wonder how many sold seats so far are to resellers! So getting her "up" on the venue site was very important, since "knowing" people are going to Google the venue first.

Don www.etix.com/ticket/online/performanceSale.do?method=switchSelectionMethod&selection_method=byManifestI recently discovered Jackie Evancho when I played her Awakening album on a flight from Chicago back in May and became a fan after listening to the very first song. I have since purchase all of her albums and they are pretty much the only thing I have listened to since. When I returned home, I did a google search to see if she would be performing in Southern California in the near future and found that she would be at the RB performing arts center on September 8th. The problem is that the only tickets I could find were from the resellers you mentioned and the prices were very high and they only had a few tickets available so it looked like the show was almost sold out. I kept searching and eventually found etix.com which has many tickets available and you can pick your seat in the orchestra section. Since I knew nothing about etix.com, I did some research and the reviews I found were pretty bad. After reading the reviews, it looked like the people that posted the bad reviews had tried to get a refund after deciding they could not attend the event so I discounted their reviews. I was still not sure about etix.com so I contacted them directly and they informed me that they were in fact the authorize seller of tickets for the venue. The California shows are also not listed on the official Jackie Evancho web site. I tried contacting team E through the web site to make sure that the September 8th show is confirmed but I have not received any response. It is no wonder that the ticket sales are so dismal, since it is not even listed on her website. Hopefully they will update the website soon and do some kind of marketing to get the word out. I am really looking forward to seeing Jackie perform live and will be really disappointed if the show is canceled.

A bunch of us here think of our discovering Jackie as a landmark in our lives. Maybe not THE landmark of landmarks but definitely A landmark separating before and after at least in the entertainment part of our make-up. For now, just get the best ticket you can and keep watching these posts. Often a fan has extra tickets due to changes in plans or circumstances. You might luck into a front row, or nearly front row seat right before the concert. Good luck and keep posting.

I know of a retired couple that I see at the local donut shop that I found out as never heard of Jackie. They got interested when I mentioned that I had a trip planned to see her upcoming concert. I told them I would loan them a DVD to watch. I'm going to lend them my DWM dvd. I thought about warning them about the Jackie affect but I think I will let them fall under Jackie's spell as we all have. I know it's kind of mean but maybe we'll have two new fans.

Hopefully ticket sales will pick up now.

For those going to this concert (or Napa on the 9th), don't forget Jackie's and Rachel's conversation on the edge of a rehearsal stage about 27m 27s into the Special, something like: Rachel: "I'd like to sing with you but I'm too scared to." Jackie: "you know what we should do, after this I have a lot of time off during the summer, we should start preparing you so you can join me in September." I've never heard Rachel sing since she was very little. A duet, at first? Please someone, a video if it happens! Don Random still, this contest started it all. Click to enlarge:
