woo hoo. Pretty happy. 1st row sect 211. $265. I might regret going alone when the day arrives, but whatever.

And 4 months free sirius xm after checkout, which I am paying for anyway, so there is $45 savings.

Not as bad as expected. $265.00 including fees for center ice row 4 in the 200's.

The countdown is on!

I think I was gonna have a hell of a time finding seats I liked at a price I liked if I was looking for a pair. Lots of singles scattered.

Snagged a pair. $150 about halfway up the second bowl.

Just paid about the same for Bruce Springsteen as I did for blink-182… and I have better seats for Springsteen

quickly looked at options and wound up going with floor seats for $340 each - of course i forgot about the TM usury fees - which pushed the total purchase to more than i wished it to be

The TM process was annoying as i rec'd a text last night from TM with my code and a link. when i clicked on the link, it got Error 404. i was also logged into my TM account and just went that way and then entered my code

I bought a pair for $250 all in behind the stage. The stage arrangement he had in Austin allowed him to play to the back a fair bit. It's all I could get since I was wait-list for the presale.

Weird? That has been like every Springsteen arena show set up since the 90's. Bruce and Pearl Jam both have nothing behind the band so the seats behind have a clear view of the band on stage. You can see it how it is around the 6:20 mark of this Toronto show in 2016.

I sat behind the stage for Garth Brooks when he was last here. Honestly, it wasn't that bad, compared to being high up at the far end of the arena.


I got a pair beside the stage about 15 rows up the second bowl for $250 all in.

My buddy got a pair of row 30 floor seats for $800.

Now we have a choice to make lol

Well curious to see how much the set list changes between the current shows and November- you would think it will a bit. Really hoping Jungleland or Incident on 57th make their way in.

Looks likes I snoozed on the "verified fan" registration, had no idea what that was until just mins ago. Holy ####, can they make it any more complicated? All under the guise of preventing scalpers, kinda don't believe Ticketmaster on that.

Those prices aren't actually as bad as I thought they'd be. I probably would have gone for middle second tier if it was close-ish to the stage for the prices being mentioned here.

As it stands I'll probably check the week of the show and see what comes up on ticketmaster and see where secondary prices are at.
