I remember it being Lindsey's birthday at my first show and everyone talking about how that was the arena that the infamous Who concert in 1979 happened at. Indianapolis was beautiful because it was outdoors at what was then called Deer Creek Music Center. My favorite outdoor Venue Ive been to to this day. I wanted to go to more shows, but tickets were so scarce I just couldnt afford it. For ths Minneapolis show, I was the first person in line for tickets I waited for 27 hours, and there were over 400 people in line at the Target Center by the time the tickets went on sale! That was one of the last shows I remmber where the tickets were "first dome, first serve." I just remember haning out all day and night with a lesbian couple and 5 college dudes from UW-Madison. What a fun time! Oh and I got interviewed by all of the major TV stations in Minneapolis being the first in line. What really pissed me off though was that both Detroit, Indy, and Fargo went on sale the same day so once I had my Minneapolis tickets(front row!) secured, I had to go over to the Ticketmaster outlet and wait in line for another 2 hours to get my tix for the other 3 shows. Long story short, I forgot to tell my mom I was on the news and by the time I got home I was so exhausted I fell asleep and never saw myself on tv!
Now for the Cincinnati ticket story. This one really frustrated me because I kept calling TM and they said they had no information for this show. Well it turns out that this show was being handled by a different ticketing agency and that arena had just undergone a refurbishment and been renamed The Crown. I couldnt get any information and was getting really pissed! Finally, 2 weeks before the show I called Cincinnati information and someone finally knew what the F**K I was talkin about! I called the ticket office thinking that theyd be sold out for sure but for 1 single ticket I got 3rd row center right on the aisle!
