Good seats - but is that really the best the Box Office could do for you? Damn, you'd think that they had a little pull.

$70 US and the closest that will get you is row 10. They hold all other seats for their high rollers :nooooo

Actually my seats are close to the center not far left.And yes they had pit seats but the first few people ahead of me were buying 8 at a time.And they save alot of them for promoters and friends of the band They wer'ent going to give the first guy in line pit because he wanted 8.They were affraid of scalpers.Eventually they gave them to him,and 3 or 4 more behind him.The guy in front of me wanted 2,they gave him front row.I got 4 and was still happy to be only 5 actually 8 rows back because there only 3 rows of pit i believe.There is'nt a bad seat in the house.It was nice not to have to pay the handling fee also.

No i did'nt take it that way.And your right for what ever reason the first 20 rows do'nt slope up as much as a little further back,but i think i was in row 16 last time they were there and i could see fine.Taking pictures on the other hand is tough,because as soon as i go to take a shot some random fan pumps the fist in the air and ruins alot of shots!I'm not whinin,it's all in the timing!I had front row at rochester the night after that show and got some good ones before the beers kicked in.Front row is really cool,but you really do'nt get the full stage show from there.The air from the speakers were actually blowing our hair back every time Johnny hit the base drum.By the way i got those tickets 2 hours before the show!Hope to meet up with some of the folks on here in Nov.

I have tickets for the Denver and Vegas shows! Will be my 5th and 6th shows I have ever seen.
Can you guys shed some light on what the venues are like in those two places? Do the Hip normally sell out in venues like this?

I think I'll be at the Denver show, haven't bought tickets yet. Typically they won't sell out till last minute if at all. The Ogden is a good venue and pretty big for a Hip show in this area, capacity 1,600 or so. Seen them 9 times, you'de think that's enough, but this old kid just might make it an even ten before I retire from Hip concerts. So, minus my two there are 1,598 tickets left-anyone else going?

got tickets for salamanca... went cheap at $45.
But it's not listed on the band's web site any ore... What does that mean? Seems they took it down about the same time the Casino posted the show on their web site.....
Anyone have any info?
