I cant believe no tickets have popped up yet on the Borgata website. I'm fairly sure that the Borgata will release seats the day of the show..I havent bothered calling for today. I'm gonna try tomorrow morning and see what happens. I cant believe I may not be going this time

I did manage to get a very few pictures from last night. I have no clue as how to post them, so if anyone can help with this, I will get them posted. I will also be writing my review later today when I have abit more time. I managed to get front row last night and I also got Ashley and her family upgraded as well next to me. Great show, as always.

Photobucket.com seems about the easiest, unless you use imageshack.us or mediafire.com

Photobucket, you can create an account for free, upload our pics, then post the links here to view... Pretty simple.

Imageshack you do the same, create an account, or if you don't want to, you upload one by one, and after each upload post the link of each photo you've uploaded.

Mediafire.com, you don't need an account, you can upload more then one at a time, then post the links here as well...

So there's a few options.

For future reference. Do they always release primo seats the day of at the Borgata. I'm going out to see the Eagles next month and the tickets so far for the added Sat. night show on July 19th are good but not that good. They just went on sale this morning. So AMoc how did you upgrade last night to row 1-at the venue. Thanks!

No, they don't always release especially front row. Eagles is a huge high roller show. First five rows will be reserved for high rollers. My friend that ushers at the Borgata said that moving will be more stricter as in they will not be allowed to move people up to high roller seats.

Did you get tickets for Eagles at the Borgata?

John,

Yes. I got 3rd row center seat, center section 300 for the July 17th show this past Wed. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it popped up. The best I could do before that was section 400 row 11 outside aisle seat. Of course I grabbed it up and the rest is history.

ILAA is selling VIP tickets for both shows. I doubt that they will be snatched up as they are $1,500 a pop. No one I know is willing to do that-even the die-hard fans who have been paying $1,000 a seat for this tour so far. I think ILAA threw back some seats from the July 17th show this week and that's how I got lucky. I'm hoping the same thing holds true for July 19th show.

400 is actually a great section it's actually really close to the stage. I wonder if these shows will sell out. What do you think?

You get anything for Saturday or were those the seats in 400?

GavinBrown · #42 06-21-2008, 02:34 PM

I saw someone mention a live broadcast of this show? Has it popped up anywhere?

carol7lynn · #43 06-21-2008, 03:08 PM

John,

Re-called the ComCast ticket line and I'm glad I did. I got a different agent this time and she hooked me up with FRONT ROW-section 500 inside aisle seat.

So, although I will be off sides , it's still front row for $100 less than the people in the aisle seat of section 400 right next to me will be paying. The best I could do with the internet, using three browers, was section 400 row 8 two seats from the outside aisle.

Sorry to have hi-jacked this thread folks. It's just that I'm doing the cross-country trek and don't want to gamble (forgive the Atlantic City pun) on getting a better seat day of the show. But, I also didn't want to sit 8 rows back, off sides, when I can sit in the front row off-sides. Thanks for your help and patients. If anyone can give me more info on the venue PM me so we don't keep this thread tied-up any longer.

Well, just got home and am tired, but thought I would just add a few observations of the Friday show on 6/20
I was in section 400, which should have been rocking with people standing and rocking out, but a majority of the section was sitting down for a majority of the concert. WTF is up with that? They only stood during well known songs like Stand Back, Rhiannon, Edge.

In fact, the reason why I got "busted" by the security guy was because I was the only one standing in the section around me and it was really obvious I had a camera. I didn't know I was the only one standing by the way, so I took one for the team so to speak. winky I was totally zoned into Stevie and trying to hold the camera still. The guard did ask me nicely to put the camera away, so I just sat down and changed my view screen to the view finder to be less obvious and continued to tape the show from my seat when everyone was sitting. I was bold though and a rebel and again taped while standing if other people were standing around me and just tried to be as discrete as possible.

I have to go through the video and audio to see what came out and will post asap. I have some editing to do of the video.
The audio is one big file so I need to split it up. I hope it came out okay.

At the end of HAEWAFY, she asked that if we were to donate money, please donate/support to the USO. (not exact words, but paraphrasing here).

Right after Stand Back, Stevie mentioned about being in Canada before this show and was really proud to be an American and and happy to be back in America. (again not exact words, but paraphrasing here). Can't remember the exact words she said, but was something along those lines.

I got the entire Rhiannon because I wanted to record her higher vocals at the end, it was amazing (unicorns or not).
I don't have a problem with them because my attention was on Stevie.

I also taped the intros and her laugh when she made a joke about Jana being her other Sister in law.

I also got most of GDW I think. Hard to remember everything as it all passes by so quickly.

The graphic on the screen while waiting for the show to start was cool. It was a picture of a budidst/zen looking statue with a blue background.

My take on it from 15 rows back was that Stevie was having a blast and totally enjoying herself (especially during Rock and Roll). I also did not notice as much ear monitor fidgeting on her hip, but maybe that was because I was 15 rows back, not sure.

She let out a good wail during HSML that I think I missed on video Sad but sent a chill down my spine, it was so powerful.
The ending of HAEWAFY sent chills down my spine at how powerful Stevie's vocals can be. It filled the entire venue with such in intimate feeling and power with "connect...ion" WOW.

All in all, a great show, but disappointed in the crowd as a whole with my section mostly sitting. Sad
I mostly stood though during the whole show. Only sitting to try to tape as discretely as possible.

Sorry I am jumping around a lot but am typing this as my memories come to me.
I hope some other people were lucky to get good photos/video/ or audio as well.

Shandi, it was great meeting you right before the show, I hope you had a great time as well.

I am off now to take a much deserved nap.

-Sandy
