Wonder if they're doing this again re ticket sales:
A quick search of a citi bank card code will allow you to buy them today. I have my pair and I can't wait!

There was a separate presale last time where the code was posted on his Facebook page...maybe they'll do that again?

I see it, [Key], but ticketmaster is requiring first 6 digits of a Citicard today

I'll just take my chances with the FB key tomorrow morning.

actual Citi Card might still be needed
― curmudgeon, Tuesday, 20 January 2015 17:01 (nine years ago) link
yeah, not understanding how you can get tickets with just a citi code. you still need a citi card for the purchase. i can confirm because it happened to me for the oakland 'songs in the key of life tour' back in december. i ended up having to borrow a friend's citi card to complete the transaction.

friend of mine did sound at his Oakland show. I was jealous.

I did get the Citi code to work with a Visa payment last October, so ... ?

Facebook works today. Citi code still does not for Baltimore without a Citicard
― curmudgeon, Wednesday, 21 January 2015 17:53 (nine years ago) link
Got Mpls to do the Citi code without any problems, even using a Visa.

Fun show in Baltimore last night. Not as many guests as Nashville, just a string section from Baltimore and Frederick Yonnet, a harmonica playing neo-soul local. Stevie loves to talk and joke and frequently took breaks between songs to do so. Songs in the Key of Life material sounded great. Somewhere in the middle, Stevie switched over to a small mini lap steel looking thing though and did Curtis Mayfield's "People Get Ready" with India.Arie joining him on vocals. Then he grinned and went into "Tequila" from that. Unusual but still entertaining. His backup vocalists (including Ethiopian-American singer Wayna) are great. More powerful than India.Arie.

He started about 8:35 pm, took a 20 minute break in the middle and finished about 11:45pm

If someone had asked me, "What songs would you least expect to hear at a Stevie Wonder concert?" "Tequila" and "Nashville Cats" would be #1 and #2, respectively.
