I bought general admission floor tickets for $56 in Boston. The presale was through Live Nation and I didn't have any problems getting tickets. I logged in about 15 mins late and even though it's listed as General admission the tickets were listed as Row 5 Seats 40-42. Looks like they sold around 240 tickets on the floor in the first 15 minutes. Well worth the 6 hour drive from NB for an 1800 max capacity venue. Anyone know how big the crowd was for the Boston HOB show in Nov 2012? I went to Portland, Maine that tour and they sold 400 tickets at the State Theatre. That venue holds 1400.

I figured it was time I dust off my ol' username and password and chime in. Tripping from Ottawa to Kingston. Managed to get fifth row, more-or-less centre. Which shocked me as I'm on a government network and usually blocked from every site known to man.
That said, anybody going to Kingston from Ottawa is welcome to PM if they need a ride. Not sure if I'll be taking the day off or leaving after work, but we've got a few months to figure that out...

I think you're going to be right in front of me. Please be short.

5'4, so you're good :thumb: . My buddy coming with me is close to 6' though, so make sure you plant yourself behind me.

Same as me, that's good! I'll switch my similarly short sister to behind your friend.

I got 3 in the 5th row on the floor at MTS Centre, and this was RIGHT at 10 am. I'm very pumped! $138 to see the Hip? Absolutely. I've grown up with this band, they're all like older brothers. I can't wait to see them again.

What seats?

Got shut out in Calgary for decent seats, at those prices I'd only go if I got stupendous seats. the Dome is a terrible place to see concerts.

Thanks for this. I just got a set of floors in the 4th row. Expensive as heck, but I couldn't resist.

There are lots of tickets available at the ACC now. All over the place.
Looks like ticketbastard was just broken this morning.

Row 2 seat 32 for Victoria...some presale issues but ended up with a better seat than I originally had (row 3)!
Anyone know how many seats in a row? I'm figuring I'm at or near the end of the row on Robbie's side.

Just pulled the trigger on stubhub for the Burlington Show. Someone was selling literally the best seat in the house, dress circle a (front front row), for $150. Yeah it was $60 more than pre-sale, but the pre-sale seats were garbage and this seat couldn't be any better. Now if I can just sell that same story to my wife I'll be in the clear!

Yup. I'm not paying that kind of dough to see a band I've already seen 30+ times. And last night's god-awful performance from Gord has pretty much turned me off from seeing them live at this point.
That being said, I'm still excited about the Fully reissue and the next proper album. Gord still sounds terrific in the studio and they still write great songs. But man, he really needs to take a look in the mirror and do something about his live singing.
