I've been reading about Texas Tom's problems under another thread in getting good seats for the Ft. Worth show, and I'm wondering, does anyone know when the tickets normally go on sale for Gord's concerts? How far ahead do they go on sale? Are there pre-sale sales of tickets that I should know about? I'm checking into 5 possible shows: Milwaukee on 9/19/07, Sheboygan on 9/20, Rochester, MN on 9/21, Minneapolis on 9/22, and Duluth on 9/23.

I had the same problem as Borderstone did last time (Sept. '06), thinking I had front & center tickets, having purchased them on-line from Ticketmaster the second they went on sale, and it turning out to be front & center balcony seats.

Advice anyone? I'd rather be pro-active and get the tickets early if possible, rather than being re-active and winding up in a bidding war on Ebay or paying a scalper because those people have connections or the knowledge of how to get ahold of those tickets before the general public does.
