Night 1, 2, 3, 0r 4? Anyone ever been to that venue before, what's it like? Lastly, what do you guys think of rows 1-2 and 9-10 being randomly selected?
Not sure which I'm going to try for. Doesn't much matter since I plan on getting tickets for all shows one way or another anyway.
I have been to the Gibson Amphitheatre (formerly Universal Amphitheatre) many times! In fact, my first concert ever was there (Oasis in 1997). Most recently, I saw the Smashing Pumpkins there earlier this year.
It's a pretty cool venue. As previously stated, it holds about 6,000 people (all seated). Sightlines are excellent since the rows slope gradually up. Acoustics are GREAT -- one of the better venues for sound in my opinion.
Beer, food, etc. at the venue is incredibly expensive, so be prepared for that. On the other hand, the amphitheatre is right next to Universal City Walk (you'll park in the lots for the City Walk to access the theatre, in fact). The City Walk is lined with restaurants (some pretty good ones at that), as well as a bunch of other little shops, so I'd recommend you go there for dinner/drinks before the show and make your way into the theatre after that.
Not sure what else to say except that I'm super excited and can hardly wait for Sept. 30. Feel free to shoot any other questions my way if they come up!

I saw that there is a Hilton (Universal City) near by is that walkable to the Gibson.....google maps says yes- but you never know. Thanks in advance.

Hmmm...not sure about hotels to be honest, since I've never stayed there. If Google maps says yes, though, I'd say go for it!

So i've already got one going with the October 6 and 7 shows in LA, but i'm looking at doing 2 more.
If anyone's interested, and i'm hoping someone is, here's what i'm looking to do.
I'll buy 2 tickets to San Diego, and give my extra to someone who buys 2 tickets to either Sep 30 or Oct 1, and gives me the extra for that. It'll be a straight up ticket exchange, and will enable us to see a few shows.
So if you're looking at the Sep 30 or Oct 1 shows, and you have an extra, i'll swap it for a San Diego ticket.

SHOW COUNT: (164) 1990's=3, 2000's=53, 2010/20's=108, US=118, CAN=15, Europe=20 ,New Zealand=4, Australia=5
Mexico=1, Colombia=1
Only one night from 10Club though, you'd have to go through ticketmaster for the other. I might go to two.
I love that they are bringing back the lottery. It gives those of us with crappy fan club #s a chance to move up to a better seat.
They have a little break after the first 2 shows also.
Yeah this is my chance... If i Win you can sit with me... (if you bring joints)
Not really - ACL.

You'll take that back when you see the $10+ price tag on a shitty brand of beer.
