- Only 120 tickets were available for Phoebe Bridgers' Friday night pop-up show at Davenport's Raccoon Motel, and they were gone by 12:15 p.m.
- Social media buzz triggered the rush: by about 11:30 a.m., a line had already wrapped around the block after flyers appeared on the venue's doors.
- The 8 p.m. show requires a box-office wristband for entry, with doors opening at 6 p.m. and phones locked in Yondr pouches during the performance.
- Small bags are limited to 8x6x3 inches, and the venue said Apple Pay will not be accepted, leaving cash and physical credit cards as payment options.
