Atlantic City
 

Just a heads up for anyone who was thinking about attending the Atlantic City show on June 16th. Tickets were supposed to go on sale tomorrow, but I no longer see this date on Ticketmaster. I'm not sure if it was cancelled, or perhaps the date changed. It sucks because I was waiting for this show to go on sale, but the other shows in the area have been on sale for a while already. :( I suppose it will be fine since better seats usually pop up closer to the show anyway.

I'm not going to this particular show, but it's a similar thing with the Youngstown date. They don't have it on Ticketmaster yet and I am afraid that tickets will go on sale before I have the chance to get them. Keep in mind we are a family of 4, so my mom dad and sister will be going with me, so we NEED to get them when they go on sale.

There was a presale yesterday for the Borgata show. I posted the photo I received on Seven Wonders. (it is obviously a coheadline type show based on the promo photo and text)

I pulled up seats all over the venue yesterday during the presale but did not buy as I didn't get anything close enough. Eight row was the best I got. I am sure tickets will go onsale as planned.

Edit..here is the text from the email, so you can see how both are being advertised.

Thanks for the info! Hopefully there will still be good seats left after that pre-sale.

Well, you did better than me. I pulled up 14th row & I thought I'd take them, but their server went down (numerous times) & I lost them. It's nice to know though that the ticket brokers got the good seats because they supposedly offered the best seats in the pre-sale which the brokers all got. And limited is right. I complained to The Borgata, but they don't care of course. And again, the fans loose out. I'm really not looking forward to the public sale tomorrow, but good luck to those trying for good seats.

I am not expecting to get good seats tomorrow when they first go onsale. That is pretty rare, at least for me. I usually get the best seats closer to the show, as blocks of tickets are released. For the GD show, at the Borgata, I drove down without tickets. Nothing good was coming up on their website, so I just went down with nothing. Around 7:00, an hour before the show started, i walked up to the ticket box office and got third row. We stood at the stage. So, I never worry about presales or stuff like that. I will look but usually I get something better closer to the show.

Also FYI, at the Borgata they let us exchange at no additional cost our tickets for closer. The second night of GD we exchanged 20th row for 3rd row. But you have to wait until about 1 hour before the show. I loved that venue when I lived in NJ.

That's awesome information! I wish they did that at Caesars. A couple of days before the show 2nd row popped up on TM, but I already had my 11th row seats .

I took 15th row...that's all I got...I was 3rd in 2005...but I'll make it 2 the stage anyway...:D

Well, I sure hope they still do that! I was just trying to pull up seats over the PC and kept getting nothing. I don't mean bad seats, I mean absolutely nothing. Finally I called. At first the girl had section C row M, which would be center stage, but more than halfway back, and still full price. She kept looking for me and came up with section 100 row 8. Even though it's far left, I figured I would take them with the thought that maybe I can exchange them the day of the show.

Hey, we are in the same section. I kept getting bad seats, too. Finally I got Section 100, Row 4. I got them. Yeah, they are far left, but I figured the same thing. Maybe I can exchange them for something better the day of the show.

Lee :)

I'll try hard to keep that in mind. :cool:

AC solid SO! Good job Stevie!!!

Whoo Hooo !!! :blob2: You go girl.

Hmmm.... bad news for me though, no upgrade! :distress:

But that is good news for Stevie! :thumbsup:

Lee :)

It is not. I just pulled up tickets..not good tickets but tickets. I am pulling up singles right now. It is not sold out, there were periods of time during the GD tour when their website said "no tickets available", for weeks at a time even. The entire front row was empty the first night she played there and I got third row an hour before the show started. The same thing happened with Lindsey's show last October....no tickets were available during random time periods at both the Borgata and Foxwoods Casino. Neither of those shows ended up being a sell out. :shrug:

If you go on the Borgata website it says exactly under Chris and her picture: Tickets SOLD OUT!

I can't even get one???

That's what they gave me! Section C, Row M. It totally sucks. How they can charge full price for those is beyond me. I'm definitely moving up.

You know, that section probably isn't bad. I know on the seating chart it looks like it's 100 miles from the stage, but it's probably not very big. My big gripe was about the price. It would suck to pay full price for row M only to find out row N was where the $95 seats started. Good luck moving up. I'd encourage you not to try and get in front of me, but I'm so far to the left I'm sure no one would want to.

I'm not really sure how it works, but it would suck if the people they comp get tickets, but just don't use them and waste those seats. I'm sure that's why it's showing up sold out right now. They probably have a good amount reserved for comps.

Well, the best seats I've seen so far are in Row 5 on the floor (through ticket brokers). Now I got Row 4, but they are way far left. I'd like to think that someone got better seats in the first three rows on the floor, but like you say, Paleshadow, maybe they are comp seats. And I would also hate to see them not filled. I'm still going to see if they have anything better before the concert. It's worth a shot.

Lee :)

It is a pretty small venue. I saw her there on the Gold Dust Tour. Still, I hate being that far back. I know how to move up after all these years and I don't let anyone get in my way. LOL. It's the newbies who'll probably get trampled by you and me. Oh, well. See you there!
