My missus doesn't want to go on the floor at Wembley, so I'm hoping to grab some GA seating tickets for her and friend. Does anyone know what kind of choice you get when ordering seated tickets at Wembley, i.e. can you choose a particular block, or do you basically play the lottery and run the risk of being sat in the back row of the furthest block??

    Normally you can choose.. Different prices for different sections...

    This might help you in your choice

    My experience (Rush's R30 tour in 2004) was that you get allocated some seats, but can choose to refresh the page for better seats (if available). It's a lottery as to what seats actually pop up though.

    I think its going to be whatever comes up first. I'd say if you reject the tickets you get originally, they will all be gone by the time you try again.

    you would be better off ringing up when they go onsale, have the seating plan picture open on your pc, then you can ask if they have seats in X block and they will be able to let you know what the best is that they have.

    Jaymac concurs.. Be on hold on ticketmaster before the tickets go on sale, and ask for whatever block you want.. have a few backups in mind if they're not available..

    Good luck :D

    being on hold is tricky, I tried that last year for the Astoria but they refused to wait for 9am :(.
    anyway, depending on the site you use, you can click for tickets in particular block / section (floor, upper, lower, east terrace I believe) or just ask for best available...it will give you the best in whatever area you chose..all tickets should be the same price for Pearl Jam...and any good one is likely to be gone in a flash.

    they normally separate standing from seated on the sites...but there shouldn't be any standing section anyway unless 10c lied to us.

    The tickets are not in 'Goods' anymore, so I guess they're definitely sold out!

    I meant lied to us about the whole floor being 10c.
