Since I will likely go to the Jacksonville or Nashville show as well, I may TRY the fan club thing for Chastain...since the first 30 rows at chastain, is very good...

And I will just do the old way for the other shows..

I know - I am thinking along those lines. But, I usually have good luck with tickets, so who knows.

Okay, I have taken a deep breath, but I am still stressed out!

I guess looking on eBay would be the best way? I am going to try my hardest to get good seats the minute they go on sale, and when I do this, should I just take whatever is available?

That depends on how lucky you feel and how pumped you are about the seat location. I do not ever sit in what I consider a crappy seat. So, if all they are offering is what I consider a crappy seat, I do not buy it. I just keep on trying for a better seat. Worse comes to worse, I go on Ebay, where I have had pretty good luck. I have also oaid a scalper before (front row Madonna last tour), but that was an exception and someone else actually paid for the ticket!!!

Chastain is HARD to get good seats for though, since there are a little under 500 seats in the pit, or what we know as the "floor."

Atlanta is going to be rough. A ton of people, including myself, are flying in. We all know the ticket game and we all know how to play. However, I think many of us will be dissapointed. I know nothing about the place they are playing (is it even confirmed yet?) and with this whole fan club thing with various tickets in the first 30 rows being saved, it's going to be tough. I'm skeptical but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Here is a view from "row 29" at Chastain, not very good quality, but its an idea...these are my "pics" that didnt turn out so well from Stevie's 2001 Chastain show

You can KINDA see Stevie in this one....

One good thing about Chastain is they have lots of leg room..

Well that doesn't look too bad. Do they have those big screens so the people far away can actually see her?

ShangriLaTroubl · #25 02-18-2004, 10:31 PM

Yes they do have nice big screens, just didnt show up in the pics

Yes, it will be. I am flying in as well. I think the main reason is that they have a huge airport in Atlanta, so this is where everyone is going because they can get cheap plane tickets. I don't know what to do now though. I really want two mediocre to good seats, is this possible?

ShangriLaTroubl · #27 02-18-2004, 10:32 PM

And really the pics were taken with a disposable camera, so they arent great quality..I didnt think the seats WERE THAT BAD then...now of course I've had much better,so im spoiled lol

Well, take me for example. I have never had a truely good seat to any concert and have never even been in the pit for a concert. Given this fact, will I be pretty happy with whatever seat I have at Chastain Park? It seems like such a small venue, that no seat can be truely awful.

ShangriLaTroubl · #29 02-18-2004, 10:40 PM

No, you are right, no seat is awful, IMO...the funny thing is they actually have a lawn section RIGHT Beside the stage...lol...on the left side of the stage...kinda hard to see there, but its very close...and you can move into the aisles sometimes to see better..

So yeah IMO it's a great venue, they are very relaxed there...they never searched us or anything, no wands....we even got to see Stevies soundcheck through the wooden fence, with her hair in big rollers...We had a BLAST...

I am just curious, could you hear very well at row 29?
