    GA for Hampton and Reserved for Raleigh.

    GA at the Mothership is going to be old school special. This really is one of the great music venues in the country...think mini-Spectrum...there is a reason the Dead, Phish and Rolling Stones have all released live albums from Hampton.

    Future Vault in the making?
    I'm down with that, so long as it doesn't delay the bootleg release. It is a great venue. I won two GA and the guy I travel with to shows won 2 as well. Looks like the kids get to see a show in the pit!

    For sports, yes. Hampton is a small city, part of the larger Hampton Roads area so there are several arenas. After they block the back and seat the floor, maybe 11-12? Hard to say, but this and Greenville will be small shows. Not sure about Columbia.

    The Mothership is about 13,000 for concerts...9,000 for sporting events. There is not a bad seat in the building...just better than others. For comparison purposes places like the United Center in Chicago or PNC in Raleigh seat about twice that for concerts.

    That's a great photo. It might be the Moline/Charlottesville show of the tour. That's nice that the rear floor are elevated. Usually the back floor seats are bad. This makes them nice seats.

    Have Reserved tickets for Columbia and Raleigh. Looking to trade for
    Greenville, SC or Hampton, VA
    Message if interested in trading.
    Thanks, Carrie

    How do you trade? I thought you have to show ID to get Tickets..........
    You do have to have ID to get tickets but once you pick ticket up you can sell or trade extra ticket.
    I'm traveling by myself to shows so looking to trade my spare tickets so I can go to more shows.
    Understood! Enjoy the Hampton show!

    Maybe its the photo, but it almost looks like the second half of the floor has a slight incline

    it's not the photo, it absolutely is elevating as it goes back. Look at the rails on the each side and you can see it clearly. I hope for those that are on the floor, it is the case. That is a really great feature.

    Couldn't agree more. This has the potential to be a gem...an all timer. I hope they come through like Charlottesville and Moline.

    Driving down from Wisconsin just for the show. My last two shows were Moline and Milwaukee... maybe I'll bring some good luck from the Midwest and the band will play VS.
    Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.

    No complaints from me there..bring your good luck and be careful driving. I would love a set 1 that ends with Indifference in the dark. I don't like that it ends shows with the house lights on.

    Hi! If anyone has an extra GA or RES they are looking to sell I'd be so grateful. I lost out in the lottery and was hoping to make this show. Thanks so much!

    Oh man I can't wait for this show. This venue looks amazing.

    Scored Reserved with my 4th Priority. Got the Embassy Suites next door using Hilton Points. Paid just $115 Round Trip from Boston. Not a bad deal at all.

    Same here, not a bad deal for 30k pts! (don't forget the free hot breakfast)
    It's a STEAL for 30,000 points. Almost every Embassy I've ever stayed at was 50,000 or 60,000 points. And forget the hot breakfast (even though it's good), the OPEN BAR is where it's REALLy AT!!! EVERY EMBASSY has FREE BOOZE from 5-7pm. A PERFECT primer to a show that's NEXT DOOR!
