So How Did Everyone Do with Vegas Tickets??
 
I'm not going this time (just saw here there last month), but I tried pulling tickets just out of curiousity and pulled a couple row 2s, 3s, 4s, in section 3. Wednesday was the day that had the best seats available. How did you guys do?? Good, I hope.

Sorry you aren't going! I didn't pull anything great, but focusing only on Friday. I would have been thrilled with row 2-4 in Section 3.

I know there is the curiousity factor, but I wonder when people pull up tickets "just to see" are the removing the tickets from someone elses view who would be making the purchase?

jkmaletic 01-19-2007 06:01 PM

^ yeah, but I threw them right back. So they were available. Hopefully a Ledgie got them. :thumbsup:

yeah, but only for 90 seconds or 2 minutes or something ... then the page expires.

Thanks to the Ticketmaster Express hotline, my friend Jessica and I are heading to the Saturday show with Orchestra 4, Row AA tickets. :thumbsup:

EveryHour 01-19-2007 06:34 PM

Well, I did not do as well as I ideally would have liked...but it turned out okay. Vegas is really difficult because so much of the front section is reserved for high rollers, VIPs, etc. This can also be good, though, because a lot of the time those people do not show and their tickets get released later. I ended up with a range of Row 5 to Row 10 over the four nights. Definitely decent, and I'm sure the whole trip will be a great all-around experience.

QUESTION: I ended up with tickets in a handicapped section for one of the nights...I just saw the row and bought them. Hopefully I didn't take the seats from someone who requires them, but luckily there appears to be ample accomodations according to the seating chart. Has anyone else had this happen before...can I be denied the seats??!!! Paranoid now.:rolleyes:

EveryHour 01-19-2007 06:40 PM

Did anyone else get kicked off of Ticketmaster for the day for trying for tix too many times? It sure happened a lot sooner than it used to.

My husband and I both did...luckily we had already purchased tickets to all the shows and were just trying for upgrades.

Me neither. :wavey:

brisharry 01-19-2007 10:03 PM

we did allright
 
we scored tix in the front 4 rows for 3 nights and row 12 for 1 night, i was pissed off that by the time i was off the computer there was somebody on e bay with front row, all fancy artwork for 800 bucks a pair and they had 2 pairs, there is no way they could have got these like the rest of us did and then put them on , someone has an in at ticketmaster to do this, we all should complain to ticketmaster about them

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Never in my life have I gotten good tickets when they first go onsale. I have been buying my own tickets for Stevie since the Mirror tour. (before that I depended on Mom to buy them..:lol: ) This morning, I got three tickets, Row AA.. in section 4. I was beyond shocked. :nod:

:blob2: Awesome! Which night and which seats? We have 411 and 412 for Saturday. I wish there was a more detailed seating chart!

411 is a cheap section isnt it?

My two friends and I are beyond shocked as well.

Not at all, they are in Section 4 (center), front row, and in seats 411 and 412. Which I'm pretty sure are the last two seats on the left in the section.

Congrats! I can't believe people got these great seats while I pulled MM, NN, and once I pulled fricking Mezzanine.

:laugh: Considering 411 isn't even a section, mayhaps.

NicksforLife 01-20-2007 05:20 AM

Well I'm up in the rafters. I wanted the 1st row up there, but could only pull up the 2nd. One of these days I'll come up with the $$ for the front rows seats, but not this trip.
I'm so glad for all you that were trying for close up seats, and got them:thumbsup: even thou I'm jealous all h*ll!
It's nice to know that the express phone # works so well, I'll be keeping that in mind for when my time comes.

Just glad to be going! It's gonna be great!

Oh excuse me, I thought you were referring to section 411 not seat.

jkmaletic 01-20-2007 05:56 PM

Congrats to all of you that scored great seats! It's hard - especially in Vegas. Like I said before, Wednesday's show seemed to be pulling the best.

You can find a super-detailed seating chart on the Caesars website. Click on entertainment and then the Colusseum. You'll feel like you're going cross-eyed trying to locate your exact seat in the little squares though.

Sat, Mar 24
Seat location: section ORCH6, row GG, seats 603-604

It also got classified as the physically disabled section, but looking at the map, I think all this means is there are folding chairs that can be removed if someone has a wheelchair. I got seats like this in 2005 at Nissan Pavillion in VA, and got folding chairs. I think it just means, they allotted for more space on the floor for each seat. Did not have a problem in 2005. In fact, there was someone in a wheelchair, but he was right up front and we were a couple rows behind him. If someone knows anything else related to this specifically to Caesars, please let us know, but I think this is what it means.

Isn't the stage set up kind of different anyway? During the Edge walk in 2005, didn't Stevie have to step down to a lower platform or something?

DavidMn 01-21-2007 02:11 PM

To be totally honest, I wouldnt spend the top dollar unless I was reasonably sure I'd have a chance to gt to the stage. The cheap seats at the Palace arent bad at all.:nod:

Yeah...I noted that yesterday. Just checking back on tickets out of curiosity, Wednesday by far still has the best available. I guess it makes sense...it's not the first show and it's not a weekend show. Though at initial onsale, I did the best with Tuesday.

Thanks for this bit of reassurance!

Rickypt 02-04-2007 03:28 PM

Holy crap, I just checked how much seats will be with service charge on Ticketbastard.

$197 total for the top seats! That's almost $40 in service charges. Total highway robbery and part of me wants to skip the whole thing in protest.

Which I won't because I'm going, but still this is b.s.

camchristo 02-04-2007 03:33 PM

Tell me about it! I bought two tickets in ORCH 3, and they were $159.00 each. By the time all of the Ticketbastard charges were on, two ticket cost me $389.00!!!

Oh, by the way, I got seats in MM, 13th row, but of course would like to get closer. My boyfriend has since told me that he doesn't care enough to go for what I spent on the ticket *gasp* so I might be willing to trade my two tickets for one closer if anyone has any interest. Just let me know. He can then occupy himself while I rock out with Stevie!

Sounds like grounds for divorce! :laugh:

Yeah! By the way, my tickets are for the Wednesday show.
