I appreciate the anti-GA sentiments here but I really really really really really want to experience it once (for PJ) n my life.
Also to catch tambourine frisbee and maybe guitar picks.
Take an 8 year old with you.
Proud childless cat lady here!
Didn't say it had to be your 8 year old lol

I usually go for seats but finagled a ticket for GA @ Fenway 1 - it was a blast. I wouldn't want GA all the time, but every now & again it's a nice change. Good luck, I hope you score.

I got to do it in Wrigley this year. I got in line an hour before and was literally the last person to not get the rail. So i ended up in the second row. Coolest PJ experience for me. It was my first time doing it. I know those huge pits are not the norm so arenas and amps require more work I would imagine to get a good spot

Fenway N1 was phenomenal even from the seats. But yes, would love to experience it from the pit.

After just doing the massive Gold Circle in Aus and NZ I'm happy just to have room to move around... not caring about getting close anymore... but still prefer GA at age 60 (if the band can do it so can I)
Two nights in Cleveland would work better than Pitt in my opinion. Cleveland would make it equidistant for the Detroit, Ohio, Western NY and Pitt market to travel. Then two nights in Toronto. If you’re going to do two nights in Pitt, then a one off in Detroit before Toronto would be epic. If no Toronto then I have no idea what they’re doing lol
I can only Hope they do Detroit! It’s been 10 years, which is, I think, the longest they have not come here. Especially after their epic 2014 show.
I definitely enjoy GA, but I don't wait inline. And usually get a nice position from just walking in. (Not butting in) I dont mind being far a way in seats, either. Truth be told, put me at club level, where the bars are nicer.

Had GA for Indy this summer and it was nearly 100° that day. Instead of waiting in line all day just came in a bit before showtime and hung out in the back and was still a great experience! That’s a very small pit, though.

Like Melbourne 1... was brutally hot that day. I walked in once shadows cut across the Gold Circle...

It was indeed! I was directly to the left of the frame here.
I'm new to the Ten Club. Someone said: " If you get pulled for seats then 10C number comes into play -
lower number, better seats." What is the number being referred to here? And if I am new, does this mean I have no chance of good seats?
Don’t worry about how good/bad your seats are. You’re in the building! And if you really want better seats, there will be plenty on F2F. I’ve upgraded seats every show I’ve been to since F2F has been around.

It was also fun on the rail
Also fun right behind the people on the rail! But yes, it was hot. Pretty sure by the time we got inside everyone was noseblind, cause i honestly don’t remember it being that bad although it definitely should have been.
