Does anyone know where tickets might be available for purchase?
Assuming, of course, they aren't just sold at the box office at The Fillmore. 🤣

All Eventim outlets and over at The Factory

Alright, thanks for the info. 🙂

copying the official press release here:

On December 1st, which is World AIDS Day, the Mars concerts and HUHIV are teaming up once again to put on a pozitivan koncert at The Fillmore. It’s basically designed to be the big musical peak of a whole week of events happening in Chicago aimed at getting people—especially the younger crowd—to actually pay attention to HIV and AIDS issues. This year, Red Hot Chili Peppers are headlining the pozitivan koncert, making their big return to The Fillmore stage after a pretty long hiatus. They’ll be joined by Belfast food, Diskurz, and a few more bands that are still under wraps. Tickets are staying super cheap this year at just $13, and you can grab them starting Thursday, October 15th, at all Eventim locations or right at The Fillmore box office. Over the last few years, this thing has grown into one of the best shows in Chicago during the fall club season. Past performers have included Massimo, Let3, Urban & 4, Pips Chips & Videoclips, Elemental, Vatra, Ramirez, and plenty of others.

Elizabeth Perez74 said:Did that "for media freedom" thing actually catch your attention during the concert at Madison Square Garden? 😁

Yeah, I am. 😍 Then my girlfriends started copying me and asking for a pic of Mandrill.🙄 Honestly, Urban & 4 are alright. I've caught them live twice, and they weren't bad by any means. 😁

well obviously I'm going... I'll grab my ticket in the next few days and then just sit around eagerly waiting for the new bands to be announced 👋 👋 🙂

Jacob Young2 said:Yeah, I was there. 😍 My friends actually ended up copying my style and asking where I got that Mandrilla look... 🙄 But honestly, their discourse is pretty cool; I caught them twice, and they weren't half bad. 😁

That concert was actually pretty solid... 👍 Congrats on the trophy, though—that’s not something you see every day!

not really.. 🤣 I mean, there weren't even that many people there, plus you could've just scavenged a pick and called it a day. Usually, only the massive stadium acts toss picks into the crowd just to watch everyone scramble for a scrap of plastic. 😛

Tickets officially went on sale today through Ticketmaster
starting tomorrow (Friday) at 1 PM, plus you can grab them at the box office at The Fillmore

If we’re talking about an AIDS benefit, let's go with this:
David Bowie feat. Freddie Mercury - Under Pressure
🤣

Tickets have been flying out the door over the last two days... honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if we're totally sold out within about two weeks. So, if you're actually planning on showing up, you might want to hurry up and grab yours before they're gone.

Fair enough. I've been putting off buying my ticket indefinitely, so thanks for the heads-up.🙄

casualmoose18 said:yeah, I keep putting off buying that ticket. thanks for the heads up🙄

same here.. 🤣 even though I walk right past the box office every single day.. 🤣

Jacob Young2 said:Yes, I feel the same way.. 🤣 I pass by the ticket booth every single day.. 🤣

Me too, haha.🙂
Actually, since I was off work today, I finally decided to just go for it and bought one. I have the ticket in my pocket now, so I suppose I'll just be waiting for December 12th.😍😍

casualmoose18 said:same here lol🙂
but hey, I used my vacation time today to just go for it. Got the ticket in my pocket, now we just wait for December 12th 😍😍

well, my vacation isn't long enough for me to be making big moves like that.. 😛 right now I’m stuck trying to collect cash from my buddies so I can grab tickets for them too.. 🙄 who knows if anything will even be left by the time I get the money together 🤣

My stash has been sitting in my drawer forever, just waiting for December to roll around. So, what's actually happening lately? Any new bands or whatever else popping up? 🙂
