    I agree with this about pricing. GA is the same as field/lower bowl, but there's also a baseball infield that separates the field seats from the lower bowl, depending on where your 10C number falls. Also, the Cubs have to take care of their STH who will also most likely get decent seats.

    Personally, I thought GA was the entire field and the easiest area to get in the door. This was my own fault for not reading the rules properly.

    I just wanted to be on the field. I didn't even care (and wasn't planning on) being next to the stage. After the lottery, I re-read the rules and notices that Lower Bowl included floor seats. DOH!!!!

    I asked a simple question as to why people would no longer want to go to a show, if they cant sit in GA.
    It was a simple question. Now go bother someone else with your nonsense.

    Nonsense? I actually attempted to answer your question with two examples. What are your thoughts on those two scenarios?

    So like I said, go bother someone else with your nonsense.

    I did because I feel the spirit you're posting in invited it. If you were legitimately asking the question in good faith and not just stirring the pot, wouldn't you be interested in the only post that actually provided answers?

    For years and years we all got our 10club tickets, and were all happy to be in the building, and wherever our number put us, we were all basically happy with our seats. But for this Wrigley show, why is it a "MUST" for some people to be in GA? If your 10club number got you 15-20 rows from the stage in prior years, or if your # got you 1st section side stage, those were pretty damned good seats. Yet this time around, for many of you, it was "GA or Bust".

    Why the frenzy for Ga?
    I see people now saying I they cant score GA than they are not going to the show, Period.
    I just dont get it. Those same people have been to 20-40 shows, having never once stood in a GA pit, right?
    But now if they dont score GA, they no longer want to go to the show?
    That just doesnt make any sense to me.
    Maybe I am missing something.

    Out of all of the unreasonable reactions from ten club members over the years, this Wrigley show reaction has been the worst display of irrational behavior by far. There is no understanding it.

    People are now going to boycott the very show they were dying to get tickets for? I blame our public education system.

    Can't imagine not going just because you didn't get GA, but I think the people who said the frenzy is because it is an opportunity to be up front, for those who don't normally get that chance, are right.

    I've been front 3x at 3 regular PJ shows, and it was out of this world awesome, but I would not want to be in GA. Some people forget how big and strong they are in GA and for a woman of slight build, GA isn't always enjoyable, depending on who's playing.

    Don't attempt to rationalize some of his comments. You hit the nail on the head with the stirring the pot observation.

    So my question for you sweetchecks.

    When you make a comment towards me, throwing your insults at me.
    Are you sitting at your computer with your pants around your ankles?

    What ever. You spend half your time making snarky off topic comments and stirring people up yet immediatly turn hostile if anyone contradicts your point of view.

    As for the stalking part... Maybe I should post all of those obnoxious PM's you like to send me.

    Good try at editing your post btw.

    3 pages later, I asked a simple question as to why people who have seen this band 20-30 times, would not go to this show due to not having GA seats.

    3 pages later you have not offered a thought to my question.
    3 pages later and its obvious you are here to give me a hard time, as usual.
