Has anyone ever gotten tickets through the band in Philly? :D

Typically where are the seats? Is there a VIP section? Are they down front?

No clue - never done this before and just curious where I'm gonna be and I can't wait until I pick them up from the Will Call Window!!!!

Need to know NOW!!!!! :lol:

    I cant tell if you came here to brag or ask? :lol:

    i think VIP tickets are scattered amongst the fan club seats though for the most part. It also depends on how much of a VIP they determine you to be!

    Are you referring to actual VIP or fanclub ticketing.. If it's fanclub tickets next question is when did u join tenclub? what is your member number first three digits? If you are a relatively new member don't get your hopes too high.. seating is based on seniority- or length of time one has been a member of the club. Being that this is the bands only appearance in the Northeast this year, and given that there is obviously a greater number of fans traveling for this show than normal.. Just be glad you are in the building for face value at this highly sought after show.. But who knows.. maybe you'll win the lottery and be in Rows 1-2 or 9-10 :D
    If it's actual VIP tickets probably 1/3 of the way back on the floor or near the stage on the wings..
    I'm coming up from Nashville and can't wait!!

    Kind of both!! :lol:

    But really I have no clue so that is why I was asking.

    Regardless of where I'll be, I will no doubt be somewhere in an out-of-body experience!

    No is it not VIP through the fanclub - it was through a member of the touring staff.

    Well, at MSG '08 I believe their family, friends and celebrities had a section off the floor, house-right. They may reserve a similar section again for a popular show.

    I'll tell you this...I've never actually gotten a VIP pass from the band but we did score 2 VIP passes in San Diego from Matt's family. We were sitting in the VIP area for that show which was on the side of the stage. No one was in front of us, so we could see everything!! When we walked into the VIP area (across the arena) we noticed that on the other side of the stage there were more VIP people there too. So I'd say VIP is on the side of the stage. Oh and Matt's family said typically the band doesn't meet & greet but we were lucky that night I met Matt, Jeff & Mike!!!!!! Best birthday ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope this helped

    I bought a pair of VIP tickets through Comcast for Fri show since I was shut out of the pre-sale, and seats are in the lower level - 200's.

    I think the ticket itself is spoken for (I believe) but my friend is flying in late that night so she can not make the VIP pre-party which includes FREE food and BEER/WINE.
    If anyone cares to join me I will see what I can do about putting your name on the list to enjoy the festivities.
    Just shoot me a PM.
