I've gone to many shows alone, usually hooking up w/ other Ledgies once there.
Quite often, buying a single "last minute" ticket will get you a better seat (i.e., first 5 rows) than searching for a pair, or more. I'd rather be alone (~*~*~than be without you~*~*~*) at a show, get a killer seat, and make new friends w/ other diehard fans around me - than go w/ a non-diehard fan (just for the sake of not being alone) ANY day! |

I almost...
always prefer to go to a concert solo and meet up with fellow diehard fans than attend a show with someone who is just a casual fan...
I never had a bad experience attending a show as of this moment (Unless you count possible food-poisoning from the Hard Rock Cafe in Dallas this past July!) I usually plan ahead for the shows I attend & always drive to the shows that are in a reasonable distance from my home (Though I have drove to Dallas twice in the past 2 years...And will once again this spring/summer!!!) since I won't waste money flying to a show that is less than 300 miles away.

just to add a word of caution...since you are young and under 18.
use your common sense and trust your instincts, nutcases do tend to prey on lone travelers. While you're traveling, don't broadcast that you're traveling alone even to the desk clerk, hotel maid, toll taker whoever... Get a travel guide and read it's safety tips over and over again even while your actually traveling to keep yourself alert!!! Get a cellphone and travel with it...even if it's just temporary, you can probably hit your dad up for it's cost. Shows your mature and stuff... I live in the Northeast and did some of the travel thing during the Wild Heart tour and had great fun and great memories...and I always promised myself to do it again...but never have so I say go for it but take your dad's warnings/concerns to heart.

BTW, many states do have regulations about how old someone has to be to get a hotel room. I'm from Kansas, for example, where the age was 21. In Missouri, just across the border, it's 18. Guess where we had hotel parties in high school? ;-)
Even though they have those regulations, the vast majority of hotels don't check age, but you WILL need a credit card. They keep it on file for extra charges, and I've never encountered a hotel where it was easy to be able to check in without a credit card. You mentioned before that you had a checking account- you should seriously consider getting a debit card for your account if that's a possibility. It'll work the same for you as a credit card but won't actually *be* a credit card. |

I just wanted to add, never, ever, meet up with anyone (even of the same sex) in their hotel room. Meet them in the lobby, in a cafe, or any other public place, but never in their room. Same goes for having them pick you up in their car from your hotel when you have never met them. Having said that , don't be scared, just be cautious, as, unfortunately, there are a lot of creeps out there. |

yep showed my age with that one...sometimes the MOM in me just pops out but it needed to be said. I could have used the same advice when I was doing my Wild Heart mini-tour, not that anything major happened but it could've very easily as I had just recently graduated high school, was starting my freshman year of college and still very naive.
And that's what this board is about...Ledgies helping Ledgies enjoy the MAC!!

About getting tickets a week to a few hours before the show, how would I do that? Would I need to purchase them online and check frequently for good seats? Also, how do I know when I have found the best seats and that they aren't going to get much better? Has it ever happened where you waited too long and no good seats were available? Do I just go up to the ticket stand before the concert and ask for their best ticket or what? Also, is it illegal to purchase tickets from someone just selling them on the street? How can I use my laptop in a motel? Do they have connections in a motel or a computer room with all the hook ups? Also, don't most motels have a computer room where you can go on the web? About the planes being overbooked, what if my flight got delayed and I didn't make it in time for the concert? That would be a horror story! Has this happened to anyone?
