    As a newbie to picking up 10C tickets, I'm wondering if there is any advantage (I assume there is not) to picking up your tickets early. How long of a wait can I expect?

    ^It would have helped for a tour or 2, when they were by seniority and in blocks.

    No advantage at all.

    You don't need to be there at 10 am, or even noon for that matter. But don't wait until 7 pm to get your tickets, as many people learned in Hartford.

    I am stoked for this show. First time getting it through 10C as well. Will be second time at Molson Amp, going to see DMB in June. Good summer for concerts!

    Peace out Jammers.

    well, the tickets does give us access to Ontario Place as well. I've already booked half the day off, wife and I plan on being there before 3. Hopefully there will be parking spots left. Too bad the tickets don't give us parking vouchers. That would be awesome.

    i'm pretty sure your ticket gets you into the CNE for free that day. And it is opening day, so if you showed up early you'd have a day of rides and carnival food to entertain you.

    ouch. that really sucks for those of you who missed what might be the best 9 song opening to show that i have ever seen (except for the Vic of course).

    Some people have to work and have no choice but to pick up tix at 7 or 8 pm. So those of us who have the ability to get their early should, to help those people out.

    I will probably pick up mine by 4.

    Didn't mean to rub it in :)

    Same thing happened at the Gorge in '06. Everyone seems to want to wait until the very last minute to get their tickets. That causes one massive clusterf**k at the ticket window.

    I think opening the window earlier is a good effort by the 10C to avoid another Hartford fiasco.

    Hartford 06 or 08?
    I was there in 06 and we didn't miss any of the songs but since we were took the bus from Sweet Janes (I think that was the place) we didn't get in early enough for my friend to get a poster.
