Also, with the VIP package, will I be picking up more than just my two tickets? What does "VIP Entry to Venue" mean?

Sorry for all the questions, but this will be my first official VIP concert experience!

You won't be able to pick up your ticket before the day of the show. You will probably get an email before the event telling you what to do, what door to go to and what time to meet. There was a lady named Cory who took care of it last time and there will probably be someone like that this time. VIP entry just means that she will escort you in, probably an hour or more before the show. She'll give you your stuff and let you buy merchandise, take you to the meet and greet and show you your seats.

These are great for the Hollywood Bowl Venue. I just grabbed a couple tickets and the cost for the VIP package is just $100 more than the actual face value of the tickets in the pool section (those tickets are FACE VALUE at $319.45 which is insane). Way cheaper than I thought I'd be spending to land in the pool circle even if the only seats listed on the page are row five.

Ditto here....we wanted to do this experience at one of the shows...i figured this would be the smartest choice. There will be under 100 people in the pool if I calculated it right. A lot of bang for your buck at this venue!

I agree. This offering is extremely fair. Will call protects us from scalpers. The pricing is better than Unleashed and much more favorable than what a comparable band is doing (Eagles). We bypass the horrible Ticketmaster. The whole thing is very impressive and surprising.

Dee, your quick posting was quite a gift.

That's awesome! I'm really tempted to take advantage of it now myself -- all the broker prices have become insane. Tickets I saw yesterday for $300-500 range are now up to $700-1200+. It's absurd.

Mick, I love you and your management. You have always been my favorite. Stevie and Lindsey have no talent. I don't know why you made that call on New Year's Eve. Michele

Bummer - never saw any fourth row for the Bowl - were they center or off to the side like the ones still listed (section B).

They were in B, but I only asked for ONE. If you put in a higher quantity that may have changed your result.

And that is the other great thing, no two ticket minimum. Michele

you put in 8 and see where they are. if it doesn't have 8 available you lower the number till it gives you available seats. you can use different devices and browsers or pair up with a friend and each can grab 8 and you see what all is available. then you pick the seat you like the best of the ones available.

lol, necessity - wouldn't want to spend that much money and be stuck on SN's side for the whole length of the show.

(they better not decide to switch sides after 25 years of being in the same positions )

EDIT: that should have been 35 years... or more.
