GA night 1 and about 10 rows off the floor right next to the stage night 2. Perfect for me. Both sets via F2F. Had good seats from 10Club, but these are way better.
That's definitely a bonus of Fan2Fan. I don't recall any other PJ tours where you could be diligent and keep upgrading your tickets to really good ones.
time to do some serious bumping.. been trying to keep this thread alive for 2+ years
preliminary covid test came back negative, real one is at lunch time today. Hopefully I'm ok to fly tomorrow. Then it's hoping I don't get f'd trying to connect to my other flight :(

Thanks again for starting this thread. I was so happy to find it and bump it the moment we got the new dates. I will be so insanely overjoyed if we get this song.
next step done, I'm covid negative which means I can board a plane to the good 'ole US of A.
Next hurdles, hoping everything works out with flights tomorrow.. fingers crossed!
You're flying in to Oakland tomorrow and you're not in the US? Where you flying in from?
Victoria, BC. Need to fly down the west coast. We get a puddle jumper from Victoria to Vancouver at 10am. Then fly to San Fran from 12:20 to 3:00pm.
No way we're getting in the GA line early for night 1.. I Figure it's 2 or 3 hours to get the luggage, take the BART to our hotel, drop it off, then get back on the bart to the arena. So best case scenario would be getting to the venue around 5 or 6. If anything goes side ways we only have few hours margin of error, then you go into missing the opener :(
The only other option was to fly at 6am and get there at noon, but we didn't do it because flights cost twice as much. In hindsight I wish we had.
but yah.. I live super close to the US. I see America every day because on side San Juan Island is about 15km away, and south and east are big American Mountains that loom over us on the other side of the ocean. If there wasn't an Ocean it'd be super easy to get to Seattle, it's about 80 miles away.

We'll all be right up in front for Who You Are
That's not the case on the east coast. I did my due diligence and can't even get in the building via F2F, much less upgrading your seats. With that being said, I really hope they play Who You Are for you. I will be following along on the setlist thread. If you ever wondered if Ed actually ever looks at this forum and they play Who You Are, you will know the answer. I just hope they play it in Vegas as well.
