Really, that's crazy! That never even occurred to me! Now I'm not sure what I should do!

What about you, Kelly? How have you obtained your good seats?

we got to the front for the SYW Borgata show and it was quite possibly the most exciting night of my life. we were right in front of lindsey and having made eye contact and a small exchange with him, i melt when i recall that evening.

as for stevie, she's just absolutely enthralling. because we weren't near enough to her side of the stage, we didn't get to see the primping and whatnot offstage, and though this borders on psychotic fanaticism, but just being right up close to her in person was fabtastic. i got her rose at the end of the night, that was just made the evening even more sublime.

GO FOR THE FRONT...

don't you hate that! how did they get so many great seats, why didn't i get great seats, who lets them get those seats, why aren't there laws against that, i hate it!

the best seats i turned up for any SYW show, at precisely 10am on ticketbastard, were crap... WTF! then you check ebay at 10:01am and there are thirty pairs of front/center tix. i hate going to the brokers, but i want the good seats... tragic.

I couldn't have said it better! Definitely go for the front. I was upfront with xxxMx at the SYW Borgata show and it was life-changing (I know that sounds crazy). I feel like I'm ruined for all future concert experiences because I will always be comparing them to this one.

The energy up front was incredible...Not only could we see everything (a few yards away!), I felt like we were part of the concert. We met some awesome fellow-fans and went nuts (especially on Stand Back!).

Best moment: During Stand Back, Lindsey made eye contact with xxxMx at the part where Stevie sings "I need a little sympathy, take me home." She pointed to herself at "Take me home" and Mr. Buckingham smiled, winked, and acknowledged her...Needless to say, some of the other girls were a little jealous!

Anyway, sorry for the digression...like I said...GO FOR THE FRONT!

LOL... there is nothing more stressful than using that method... i swear i have a mini panic attack whenever i do that... half the time i end up pulling up seats that are so/so and i buy them anyway... i guess the side of me kicks in that says i wont be able to get any better seats if i don't buy right away.. of course, i know that is not at all true
but, what an impulse buy that is..
