Rail Seekers for Baltimore

Otters

What time is everyone lining up? Driving up from DC, trying to figure out how to plan my day.

We were in Philly 2 at 8:30 a.m. and ended up one back of the rail.

Don't lineup in the official GA. Instead find the next closest gate entry and book for the right section at 6:30

They caught on to that at Philly 2. I talked to a few people who tried to go in other doors and were kicked back out to the GA line. I guess it all depends if they do the double wristband thing in Baltimore.

Dead center, 7-8 am.
Between Jeff and Mike, 9-10.
Between Ed and Stone, 9-10.
Flanks, 10-12.

I doubt anyone will lineup at 5am like they did in Philly for night 2.

If you went to the arena bar in philly you were all but guaranteed rail in front of Ed. All gates open at same time... Being 6:30 as per the 10C email. Just trying to help.

If you are 40 or higher in the GA line, you're better off entering a separate gate.

Good luck all !!

I was 94 for Philly 2 and ended up 2 off the rail from Mike. I showed up at 12:30. Got 3 Mike picks out of the show, had Mike jump into my lap during Baba, and got passed Eddie's champagne bottle. Not a bad day at all. Although my legs are still sore from standing for 6 straight hours.

Can you break down for me the best way to get rail or close? I'll be there at 5:30am but don't know what to do with myself. I'm assuming the arena won't be open so where do you physically sit. By the box office window? I have two 10c gen admin. Then how do you trust who is opening the doors first, should I look for a head usher or 10c representives and see if there is one ga line or an door.
After all my surgeries I've been through this summer I'm using this show as a gift to myself and I don't want to screw anything up. I also want to visit the wishlist gathering but not if it costs me my place in line.
I guess I'm excitedly confused.

Thanks
Bob

So here's the deal. There should be a small line already at 5:30. You can either sit in line and wait till 2:30 then tell everyone you're going to get your tix and return. Or hang out in baltimore all day, grab your tix at 6pm. Enter arena at a different entrance at 6:30 and risk being one person off the rail. I choose option two. GA Pitt in Baltimore is tiny. Won't be a bad spot!!! Enjoy bud, sounds like you deserve it!
