*From marketing manager Karen Kornegay: James Taylor tickets will NOT be distributed inside the Morehead Planetarium building. I suspect (but do not know) that the ticket distribution will be at a campaign booth outside the building. Morehead is a One-Stop Voting site and there are no campaign activities permitted in the building. The ticket distribution is not a Morehead event.

Tickets

Oy.

Tickets arrived in Raleigh hours later than they were supposed to; but I know folks who got some.

If it's like the Arcade Fire BHO benefit that happened in Carrboro back in May, not having tickets won't prevent you from attending. Go anyway.

Where are the tickets?

the "guy" at Carrboro has no clue.  Anyone actually seen tickets?
