Since a Chicago EV solo date seems likely, I am curious about the seating arrangements for the West Coast shows. Was there any GA? Was it all folding chairs on the floor in front of the stage?

    I went to Berkeley and it was in a theater with 'real seats' like in a movie theater.. no standing.. no GA

    In San Diego, it was all theater seating as far as I could tell. There may have been a row of folded chairs in the front row, but that was it. All random 10C numbers, too, which gave me 4th row!!! :)

    Vancouver had the most incredibly beautiful intimate theatre. Every seat felt like you were right there with Ed...tickets went fast!
    I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me...GUARANTEED!

    In Vancouver people only really stood when Ed came out and for Hard Sun.

    Was ticket location pre assigned or did you benefit from picking up your tickets early?

    Thanks by the way to all the responses!

    In Santa Cruz it was folding chairs on the floor, but it was permanent seats on the sides. It felt like we were in a high school gym, but it was awesome.

    I think we stood for most of the encore...Lukin, Porch and Hard sun for sure, I think I was standing for Arc as well......Ten Club tickets gave us 6th row right side.

    Good times.

    You didn't benefit from getting their early.

    I went to Berkely 1, which someone already explained. I also went to Santa Cruz which was in a gym, basically and there were folding chairs on the floor. I had fifth row seats!!!

    Yes people sat for most of the show.

    You beat me to it!

    I must have been in the row right in front of you, cuz I was on the right side too!

    Great show!

    Everyone sat, just like was already stated. You wont be rocking out until Hard Sun, but everyone seated makes it a little more intimate. Ed is relaxed and having a good time....there is no reason to stand all night. :)

    Yup sitting. I stood during Porch along with a small handful of people, but was surprised to see no one else joining in. I understand the concept of small theatre, acoustic performance but this was PORCH!

    everyone sat except to stand for applause at the end of songs.. only reason to get there early is posters.. but they had a ton of extra posters.. they didn;t sell out until late.

    do whatever you can to attend one of these shows.. it is an amazing evening

    Ed at the Fox or the Pageant would be the greatest..... for me, preferably The Pageant... I saw them on the Vote For Change tour at the Fox when it came through... plus, The Pageant is one of the sweetest venues I have ever been to... small and intimate but roomy and comfortable, if you can believe it.... plus it doesn't hurt that there are two big bars.... ;)

    *sigh* now you've got me all excited for something that most likely isn't even going to happen.... I believe that billboard article said EAST COAST TOUR if I am not mistaken.... that's a pretty far stretch from the East Coast.

    THANKS!!! rawr.

    Chicago and Milwaukee have strength to their rumors, so what's four hours south for a show in St. Louis?
