I finally went back and back and finally got 2 seats, section 109, row 23 seats 7and 8. $125 per ticket. Went in after and found 2 $85. seats on the floor!!!! I wish i got the floor tickets. Ohwell, at least I got me some tickets. What about everyone else??? |
PieterMC 28.07.2005 15:32 |
Floor tickets are not always better, depending on where you are on the floor. |
Mr.Jingles 28.07.2005 15:33 |
Almost same as you Cherry. I got section 109 - Row 19. |

Good luck tomorrow to everyone who missed out today! |

The floors I could have got were section 6. about 3/4 back from the front. I would have had to look above all the heads and catwlak to see my drumming idol roger drum. Section 109 is like, from a hockey perspective, the blue line looking to your left at the "net" to see the stage. mike |

The LA seats were also hard to get. I couldn't get prime seats, as they weren't available. I must have been booted 7 or 8 times before I got Terrace seats P2 1723, 1-4. Wrong side of the venue, but they were all I could get. Maybe I'll try for better seats when they open up to the general public. |

Also common practice here are VIP PAckages or ALL Access Packages- the best seats are allocated to the packages...which some of us bit the bullet and paid.
