Is it ok, horrible? I am wondering if I should remove it and try to get general public tickets instead if I don't get others? I can not get general admin as it is impossible with the wife.
Forced to endure, what I cannot forgive.

    the 400 level seats will LIKELY be offered in the 10c sale. those are solid seats.

    Sound is still great, but you pretty much have to reply on jumbotrons to see anything. So if you only care about hearing the show any seat will be great.

    I saw McCartney from the upper deck and have zero complaints. Yes, you'll rely on the video screens, but that will be the case for most non-awesome seats anyway. Sound was great.

    So you think there will definitely be a big screen?

    I guess it is up to PJ? They have had them before so I see no reason they would not have them again...

    If they're in the 400 level it's a cool view. You can take in the whole stadium singing along, but you'll be watching them on the screens on the sides of the stage.

    There's quite a few rows in the 400 level, so I'd assume 10c has dibs on a good chunk of those.

    pretty much the case for any seat in the stadium that isn't locatated on the field....think about going to a ball game and watching the center fielder the entire time.....that is what you are getting with a baseball stadium show

    1st two rows of 400 section are some of the best seats at Wrigley. Great perspective and not too high up. Even caught a foul ball a few years back. Back of the lower level sucks.

    400s will give you an unobstructed view unlike many in the 200s. Having said that, many people around you will be sitting down the whole time. :fp:

    Sox are playing the Braves that weekend. I think I may hit up the Saturday day game.....

    As for my priority in the ticket lottery, I did all 3, but I did 1) GA, 2)Reserved Lower, 3)Upper.

    If I get upper, than it's cool, I just want to be there.
    40+ shows, it is never enough!
