Now that the Out Of Stock/Refresh circus has ended I have a few questions about the Garden. I've heard that behind the stage seats are actually decent. I've been watching some videos from 2008 taken from behind the stage and it looks like a unique view of the band. So has anyone here every sat back their? I've got Ten Club seats for night 1 so I'm thinking of taking a gamble for night 2. Also, tickets go on sale at 9:00am eastern correct? The information regarding the public sale has been sketchy at best. Good luck to everybody on Saturday. I'll try to pick up a few extra pairs to keep them out of scalpers hands. Plus I love getting the extra bonus points on the credit card. If i do I'll be offering them at face value Saturday afternoon.

    Hey,

    My wife and I sat behind the stage at multiple shows in different years and I have to say the were AWESOME!! You get to see everything that happens on stage. You get to see the interaction with the band and not to mention you get to see 16,000 looking and singing at YOU!

    Have fun, when do the MSG tix go on sale for TM? Do you know?

    Yes they are definitely good seats. I sat behind the stage at MSG in 2008. They are great seats especially since everyone in the band turned around to play to us at some point. And it was especially great when the whole band turned to the back to play Last Kiss. I would definitely sit there again.

    Thanks for the info regarding the seats. Here's about the only info you'll find on the public sale. TM still has nothing listed.

    Totally agree. I was behind the stage in section 200 for MSG1 in 08 and i thought they were great seats. Although the second night I was in the 400's and that was an awful time. View wasnt the best and everyone up there was sitting the whole time :shock:

    I was behind the stage (not directly behind, but on the side near Mike at the rear of the stage) for MSG2 in 2008 and was in the 400s... it was fine.

    for MSG II I sat on Mike''s side behind the stage. It was a great experience seeing the crowd as much as the band. And your close as hell too. I would be worried about the 400s cause they are far removed from the rest of the building and there are not many rows so I am skeptical of how good the vibe could be in any given section. But dont fear sitting behind the stage with this band, especially at MSG. Now that the Spectrum is gone there is no doubt we know where the best U.S. fans are

    so because a stadium closed that means all the philly fans disappeared??

    really??
