    Stayed at the Marriott next door before for Pens game. Ain’t no fucking way for $800 per night. 
    I got it for 200 a night. Was the hotel sub-par?

    @PP193448
    The area that the arena is in is a bit underwhelming.

    I've been to a BUNCH of PJ shows over the years, wish I could remember all of them and make a list like many of you have.   Been a fan club member since 1995, never let it lapse.  My first show was in Seattle in 1996 to open the No Code Tour.   I've been to maybe 15 - 18 shows over the years, all over the US.

    My last show was September 17th, 2022 Philly - great show, perfect weather.   I declined to get tickets last year because of the seemingly HUGE jump in price since the last time we went ($172.00 for (2) tickets in reserved seating, section 102).   I also read about the "surge" pricing and became discouraged not fully understanding how the members pricing would be effected.

    I wish there was a better way to reward the members who've been faithful (pun intended) for so long.   My membership number is 133XXX which I'm sure isn't that low compared to many others.    I requested Pittsburgh, N1 and haven't heard anything, while a friend of mine (membership started a year AFTER mine) who ordered at the same time, got notification yesterday in the early evening.

    I have my fingers crossed, but I'm still feeling a little miffed over the situation.   I also understand that if you only allowed OLD members to populate all of the best seats, there would be little incentive for new members.    It's such a conundrum. 

    *Edited:  I had my last show date wrong.  It was Sept. 2022.

    It is odd...my wife is also a member so we both enter since it isn't guaranteed. For Wrigley and Indy 2024 I was totally shut out and she got pit for Indy and reserved for Wrigley.

  • Just booked the residence inn in North Shore. Is that 30 minute walk pretty safe generally? Also, is south side flats safe?

    It’s a lottery though, your number only helps if you won the reserved lottery. 

    It’s a small leg and a lot of people added their hat in the ring. 

    IMHO, when/if they announce Canadian dates and they are in 2025,Pittsburgh tickets will become plentiful because people will throw them back and go to the Canadian shows. A lot of Canadians are coming down as it’s a long weekend in May for them. Also the CDN dollar isn’t doing so great at the moment.

  • Welp - batting 0 so far Pitt. Hoping to get in for night 2.
  • I got skunked on both nights, which is actually great, because I realized yesterday that this is the same weekend as my nephew's HS graduation in Kansas.  Hard to be in two places at the same time.

    Just realized that night 2 is the last night of this leg of the tour.  Could be something really special!

    Pit for night two, no notification for night 1.  Do we get a loser email or should I assume night 1 is a loss?  Looks like Ticketmaster seats!

    Just booked the residence inn in North Shore. Is that 30 minute walk pretty safe generally? Also, is south side flats safe?
    I stayed there for a Penguins game years ago (2017) and had no issues walking to and back.
