Philadelphia Spectrum on either January 26 or 27, 1973
The album cover for the unreleased "Time Fades Away" was taken at the Philadelphia Spectrum on the 1973 tour.
This year the Philadelphia Spectrum will be torn down to make way for the latest in trendy entertainment centers. But not before Neil Young plays a final concert on Dec. 12.
We're totally pumped about this and have our GA floor tix in virtual hand for the concert. And maybe we'll try and re-create the album cover and bring a rose and a peace sign?
So here's some news for everyone who wants to see Neil and Wilco at everyday low prices. How about tickets at $19.67???
From DelcoTimes:
"Tickets at $48, $78, $97, and $250 will go on sale on Friday, Sept. 19 at 10 a.m. exclusively ComcastTIX.com, 1-800-298-4200, the Wachovia Complex Box Office, and select ACME locations. A small number of GA floor tix priced at $19.67 to commemorate the opening year of Spectrum will be made available at the box office only on Friday (Limit two per person). There will be a limit of four tickets per person for all other price levels. Fans can visit RememberTheSpectrum.com to pay tribute and showcase the history of the famed arena with artifacts, video, photographs and memorabilia."
Got a problem with those prices? Then take it over here. Watch out for the greedy hand.
Thanks Nan! See you at the show!
ps - it's never too late to sign the Release "Time Fades Away" Petition. Don't be denied!

Wow, I overpaid by $70!! Haha. Oh well. Got a GA ticket, too. I am fucking ecstatic. A full moon show, no less.
Did not know the TFA cover shot was taken there.... cool.
I am in AZ so I could not take up that deal. Too bad it is at the box office only. That would make it worth the price to fly.
Bah, $20? I remember when tickets were $2.50!
FOR SHAME, NEIL!!!
would be great to get in touch with that guy in front of the cover of TFA, to ask him about that concert and the photo pic, memories etc
Funny stuff. My wife went to the Wachovia box office for me this morning. She was 34th in line and was told that there would be no tickets for $19.67 available when she got to the front.
Since they were only selling them at the B.O., and since there was a two ticket limit, that means they put something like 60 tickets for sale at that price. And that's assuming that everyone in front of her was there to buy $20 tickets only. Otehrwise they put even fewer on sale
You gotta laught to keep from crying. She got me a $78 (+$4) GA ticket instead.
