I have 10C GA tix to Missoula but after reading some posts from other short people, I'm thinking Reserved might be better (I'm 5'3" & my husband is 5'7"). Whenever we go to shows, it always seems like a basketball team gets right in front of us. How would u trade? Outside before the show?
I'll ride the wave where it takes me...

    You'd have no problems trading your GA for reserved..just post on Lost Dogs or on Given to Fly, and you will meet the people you traded tickets with after you both pick up your tickets for the window to trade.

    Just think carefully before you do this, GA tickets are highly desirable for the show!

    Something else to consider is to get in line early enough to be on the rails ;) No heads in front of you to worry about! I wouldn't know what time you would need to be there to get up front but whatever time it is and however long you wait, it will be worth it if you haven't seen them from the front row before. :D

    I have a behind the stage seat about 20 rows back. I would be happy to help you out and trade for your GA ticket. Of course I would need some cash compensation as well for the trade along with the ticket. I'm going to hold this deal open for 6 hours only for you, and then I'm opening it up for the masses. Don't miss out on this. ;)

    I'm in the same boat, looking to trade my GA tix for 10c seats. I'm not just looking to do this because I'm short, but because my legs aren't in good shape (broke them both a couple years ago) and I know I'm going to need to sit. Leaning on the rail would work, but I literally can't run.

    Haven't had too many offers so if anyone's interested please pm me! Otherwise I'm going to do it the day of the show.

    I doubt you'll have much trouble getting a good trade just showing up at the pre-party. Really, I think my behind the stage seat is going to be the best seat in the house and we should trade. :D Good luck. I'm hoping for a couple rarities. I think they should play hitchhiker in honor of all the people roadtripping this (albeit likely not hitchhiking but on the road at least).
