    I'm further away (by 2 sections) from the 2006 tour, which I found very surprising.

    At least in 2006 the full leg of a tour was put up. Announcing this one Chicago show before all others (Philly, West Coast, etc) means there's a ton of 10C tonight, most likely because everyone thought this would be the only show before a large tour next year.

    So it might not be the best seats (definitely 100-level for you), but you're guaranteed a HUGE amount of 10 Clubbers there, which should make for a great show.

    Thanks! As suspected..I'll be happy w/ what I get. Enjoy! :)
  • Well, I just got back from picking up my tickets and yours should be almost identical to mine as I am 208***. I'm Sec 4, Row 18...So, waaaaay fucking back on the floor, which I hate! Oh well, at least I'm in the building for what figures to be an awesome show. I'd much much MUCH rather be up on the sides even maybe further back where I can at least see. Getting tickets on the back of the floor for me, who is 5'8" and my wife, who is 5'2" really sucks. We won't see a damn thing. At least we'll get to hear it. And I always have another shot at winning the lottery tomorrow.

    What about the 189xx range?

    Anyone close to that get their tickets?

    In 2000 I was maybe 100 feet from the stage. In '03 maybe 90 feet. '06 maybe 80 feet..

    I am in the 411*** range and got section 317...kinda suprised. I realize my number is high as fuck (let it lapse long ago)..but, was hoping for better. O-well...I am just happy to be here in the Hyatt and going to the show tonight.



    If I knew where it was I would take you there. There's much more than this

    fuck! just as i figured. i'm 232xxx. i "moved up" from the wings to the back of the floor starting with msg last year. we'll see what happens with my shows this year. i'm way too short for the back of the floor so it looks like i may have to go public sales for arena shows for a while. :(

    Yeah, at MSG my tickets were similar to this, too. I was probably pretty near you. I have to say, not to be a whiner, but it does hurt my experience quite a bit. I still love going and I'm not trying to get flamed here. But, I'm also not gonna lie and pretend like I'm not super disappointed. Oh well. What can you do? There's just a lot of fans that also want to see my favorite band. Once the music starts I'll be happy. :)

    88XXX and am in Section 103 Row 11.
    I was Row D in Toronto.
    Looks like a huge 10C turnout.
  • N2DeepN2Deep Posts: 16
    Looks like a HUGE number of 10C tickets were sold. Touringfans.net estimating almost 6,000 based on the range of order numbers submitted to their site, which could mean it's quite a few more than that. My 10C number kinda sucks, 294xxx, and my seats are In the corner on the opposite end from the stage, one section up off the floor. I think by the end of the night, everyone is just going to be glad they were in the building for this epic concert.

    P.S. I'm a fellow 189xxx'r :P

    I'm like 389XXX and no matter what venue I am at I am always half way up and half way back. I'd rather have that than half way back on the floor.
    One time however, there was a mix up and all the people who had numbers in my range got the front rows. It was in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I don't remember the year.

    Shit, this is not good for Philly if Chicago tickets put people in the highest level. I swear to Christ, if I'm in the highest level in Philly, I'm going to be so pissed. I could have bought better seats than that through comcasttix.com. Sucks for everyone that got stuck in the 300s.

    Not for me...They were playing at The Palace, which is a mile from me, the night after the Grand Rapids show...Well, stupid ass me decided to only go to one of the shows and I picked the wrong one, but everyone told me about it, it was all over these boards and I hated myself for a long time.
