Low Number High Number

I keep reading that people have low numbers and high numbers as if it's an indicator of where your seats are going to be, or rather how good they are going to be. I've been going to Shows since 2003 in the Boston area and was never aware of "numbers" if they exist where do i find them? It would be awesome to have an idea ahead of the show.


Any help will be appreciated.

    Yeah, thats it.

    With 306xxx, you will be looking at side stage seats. I would guess.

    Which is a pretty damned good seat, in my opinion.

    I am sure your seats were great!! I hope they were comfortable too!!!

    Because after listening to the first 8-10 songs (5 Riot Act-3 Avocado, or close to it), you were probably sound asleep, in those kick ass seats!!!!!! hehehehehehehe

    I'd prefer side stage to back of the floor any day.

    Yeah, I never understood that. As if someone could steal your identity. Although this day and age you never know.

    I don't think I sat down the entire show. The amount of shots I did b4 the show with 2 really good friends I'm sure helped. lol Also the people around us were so into it. My knees never hurt that bad from jumping so much. lol

    It was the last time now that I think of it that I was with my longtime tour buddy. So the show sticks out in my mind for a few reasons. But I've never listened to the show since on cd.

    It was a heavy, sorrowful night.. Such a sad history in that building that hit Ed so close to home.. A very memorable show..

    Absolutely. I grew up in that area and was very aware. Couldn't believe how many people started cheering when he mentioned that Robert Pollard was there that night of the Who concert - so many fans had no clue where his story was headed. I immediately stopped breathing when he mentioned it. Long Road was just a perfect selection.

    Yeah, the lower the better. I am 328xxx. Your seats are probably near mine which is always half way back and half way up, no matter what venue its at.
