We have no idea how many tickets were sold. For all we know they only sold enough tickets to fill the floor. They could have only sold 250 pairs and we wouldnt know until we got there.
exactly... all we know is it holds 1400
they could of only sold 2 - 300 pairs through the 10c
looks like there's 50 of us on here that have admitted to it
it would just be nice to know before hand for a plan of attack
Its very possible people answering e-mails haven't seen the Vic and don't know there is two levels... Balconies are clearly small areas to the side of the stage... no 10C there... the upper level is just way too big for VIPs
Balconies are not off to the side...those are called Boxes (sometimes Royal/State Boxes). the balcony is the big area above the bar and back of the floor crowd.
And no one sings me lullabyes
And no one makes me close my eyes
So I throw the windows wide
And call to you across the sky....

I emailed Big City... I'll see if they respond and what sort of deal they will hook us up with
i just called them (fuck it, i 'm bored) i let the dude know that it would be pretty crowded next thursday because of the concert. he spoke in slightly broken english so who knows? there was no manager around. hopefully they put on an extra day bartender bc of the heads up. anyway, he said it is always domestic for $1 and he is callin gme back with what it will be.
we might be able to put some pressure on them for blue moons? :cool:

If that deal for Blue Moon can be worked out...I will love all of you people for the rest of my life.
in 2002 when i first went to get my plate after moving back to MI from CA YIELD wasn't available...but a few weeks later it was. Anywho...you got the plate i wanted...the day I went to the Secretary of State the computer system was down...so I left my renewal with them and came back later...they had already processed it and i didn't get to tell them I wanted the plate with green at the top.
Irony.
Well, if I ever see you, I'll honk.
The kids of today should defend themselves against the Seventies Nineties.

email says floor only
phone says floor and balcony
who knows
maybe they've got a shitload of vips from lolla and stuff... and they don't want peons sitting next to perry
Cool. I've seen risers before, but never ones that nice. So I guess there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Can't wait.
Risers - exactly, I guess that's what you'd call them! At the back of the last two or three risers, there are upholstered booths - maybe that's what looks like seats in the picture?

i love how this grapevine has worked
poor bartender is going to be like "why do all the pearl jam freaks keep asking for Blue Moons and then get pissed when they find out it's not $1"
"We're running out of beer, too?" EV 6/19/08

Start a thread just for pre/post concert meetups and where the drinking and shenanigans will occur. Thanks.
nowadays hits you when you're young
Looks like seats here:

It's not. Trust me, I was just there last Wednesday
Cool. I've seen risers before, but never ones that nice. So I guess there really isn't a bad seat in the house. Can't wait.
