So what kind of seats do you think will be available during the presale tomorrow?

I'm thinking we should wait for saturday morning if we want floor seats.

jazzyjen11 · 13-03-2009, 06:33 AM

I hope there are some floor seats available with the pre sales..

I think I might be holding out too if I can't get any good seats on Friday and try my luck with the general sale on Saturday.

30 minutes to go!!!
Good luck!!!

C_mazurek · 13-03-2009, 03:02 PM

wow Section 206 that sucks! i'll wait til saturday.

anyone fair any better?

wpgchris · 13-03-2009, 03:14 PM

I got tickets in section 121, best on the floor I could have gotten is row 37. I'm going to try again tomorrow for better seats though.

TrueNorth · 13-03-2009, 03:16 PM

I got two on the floor in row 33. I was hoping for 4 tickets, but when I searched for 4, everything was in the 300 section.

Looks like I'll be waking up tomorrow morning too and seeing what is available.

C_mazurek · 13-03-2009, 03:20 PM

Yea I got row 32 twice on the floor, a nice even number so I think that's as good as they get.

Good luck tomorrow people!

Hyphin · 13-03-2009, 03:52 PM

I'm looking for three, so haven't gotten anything on the floor. I searched 2 a few times, and got a few floor seats, but they weren't very good.

I'mma try tomorrow, I think.

We'll see whats up. It just seems like they didn't really release many floor seats. Is that how this kinda things generally goes?

TalkShowHost · 13-03-2009, 04:13 PM

Ok, so what's the worse case scenario? Internet going down. Yup. It happened!

My *internet* went out seconds before 10am and it lasted a few minutes!!!!!!! I could hardly believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Arrrrrrrrrggggghhhhhhh!!!!

My friend, who lives in another city/country found 2 tickets in 200's near the stage and row 2, so I am **grateful** that at least I have tickets!!!

I have always had bad luck with TM...good thing I got my friend to help me out!!!! I will also try again tomorrow AM.

BobbyBraveheart · 13-03-2009, 05:56 PM

I got two seats on the floor in row 23, pretty pleased but going to see if I can get closer tomorrow morning. I've done alot of presales over the past 5 years and this was pretty typical. A row or two open on the floor in the 20's, then a couple more near the very back of the floor, a few rows in the 100's and 200's then the rest is 300 level that keeps opening up so that everyone with the password has access to tickets

stukaman · 13-03-2009, 07:44 PM

I got two in section 120, 12 rows up from the floor. It's a little further from the stage than I would have liked, but still very decent seats (not as good as Talkshowhost's friend's!!!those are virtually on top of the band at the side of the stage!)

Don't forget...this is a pretty small venue (15,000 max), so anything below the 300 levels is good (unless you're near the back of the floor and shorter than 6 feet).

storm99x · 13-03-2009, 10:37 PM

Ok, so what's the WORST worst case scenario?
Buying 1 ticket instead of 2! YUP! That's how idiotic I am! So I'll be sitting at my computer in a panic again tomorrow morning trying to get some good seats for the show!

Hyphin · 14-03-2009, 03:21 PM

What's going on with you guys?
I'm not getting anything. Like literally, it hasn't even shown me tickets for the last 15 mins.

I saw neither 1 nor 2 floor seats in the 1st minute.

and now all i see are obstructed view seats!!!

gaaaaah!!!

BobbyBraveheart · 14-03-2009, 03:29 PM

It sold out in about 4 minutes. I had 5 other people on their computers and two friends at the MTS centre waiting in line and the best that came up was 200 level + and they were all gone within 5 minutes. I'm extremely happy with what I got through presale now seeing how fast this thing sold out.
