Well, not much more I can add . . . just trying to move mountains between now and showtime for my son's first show. I was worried he might prefer to go with his friends, but I'm pleased to say that he wants to go with me.

Cheers everyone.

    Worth noting . . . I'll buy one GA ticket, if it means getting him in the building.

    Thanks. I appreciate the solidarity. Frankly, it probably goes without saying at this point that just getting in the building would be a major victory and his memory-of-a-lifetime waiting to happen.

    I take great comfort in knowing that years from now, he'll look back and remember going to this show with his dad (whether I'm still around or not). Something to last a lifetime . . . in many of the same ways I remember my first concert and/or first Springsteen show . . .like it was yesterday.

    One other thing I should add:
    I did tell lhim that if necessary, we'll go to Portland (Friday night show) and perhaps even Vancouver, though it's a school night and middle of the week.

    I don't suppose anyone has heard any recent rumors regarding a possible 2nd Seattle show getting added? I've heard nothing, but fingers are crossed.

    Thought I might bump this one last time, now that we're almost inside of a month until the Seattle show.

    No offense but maybe lower your standards? :)

    Seattle GA tickets were really hard to come by. Most people lost that lottery. The people that won probably are going. It would be pretty hard to get 1 ticket from someone going solo, but hoping a 10c member will go all the way to the venue (to get the tickets) then give 'em away... thats a hard sell.

    I would say the best bet (and this is what I'm hoping) is that they release some leftover tickets close to the show date. Maybe some closer side stage tickets or something.

    I've been trying to upgrade my 2nd level behind the stage tickets for a while, and its a daunting task :( Obtaining GA tickets is next to impossible.... so maybe try for a section outside the 10c zone?

    No offense taken. You're absolutely right and I had kinda forgotten that was the original title of my post way back in August. I check CraigsList every day and I guess I'm hoping for something in the 100 level, but I think we're fast-approaching the point where just getting inside the building might be the number one priority.

    Just changing the subject of my original post to "any tix" . . . just wanna get in the building with my son.

    I live in Ballard for anyone Seattle-based and/or familiar with Seattle.

    Weird. There's nothing in my InBox and my response only shows up in the Outbox (not the Sent box). So just to make sure you receive my reply, I'm afraid I'll need to post here if that's okay . . . I realize it's not exactly private.

    Anyway . . .

    I appreciate your offer, but since my son is 14 . . . and realizing it's a longshot . . . I do wanna find two tickets together or at least within a row of each other.

    I asked him and he said he'd be more comfortable if I was sitting with him. Of course, by this time next year (or when he turns 15 or 16), I'm sure he won't want me anywhere near him and his friends, but that's kinda where we're at.

    Thanks so much though.
