Yo La Tengo Void Scalper Tickets For Hanukkah Shows, Launch New Lottery
Yo La Tengo recently announced this year's run of their annual Hannukah shows, slated for Dec. 4 to 11 at NYC's Bowery Ballroom. The pre-sale went down last week, and it was ruined by — you guessed it — scalpers! The band has since announced that they're voiding those tickets and launching a new lottery.

Yo La Tengo has canceled tickets for their annual Hanukkah shows at NYC's Bowery Ballroom due to scalping. The pre-sale took place last week, but the band has decided to void those tickets and launch a new lottery instead. The shows, which feature special guests and surprises, will continue raising funds for charity. Bowery Ballroom stated that many tickets did not reach fans and they are actively working to recover as many as possible for redistribution.
The band advised against purchasing from resale sites. Yo La Tengo's new lottery for ticket requests opened on August 2 and will close on August 4, with winners notified by August 5. A limited number of tickets will also be available at the Record Grouch in Brooklyn.
