Alright, we're in! Sec 217. Sort of the nosebleeds but at the edge of the stage. Booked at the Flamingo as well. Definitely looking forward to it.

Mrs. cdnkeywest and I will be there! This was tough getting seats, I even called LN (number some nice BN'er provided in another thread) the CSR on the phone said sorry only Ticketmaster handling tickets??!! I never did get through to TM CSR's.

Luckily I was also trying online and ended up with L217 Row D - so will be there!! Tonight we will book flights/hotel.

This was by far the toughest ticket I ever had to get for Vegas (this will be my 3rd time down to see Jimmy in LV with the last in May 2002).

Something to look forward to as the weather here in Toronto, Canada (up until this week has been cold and snowy!)

Wooooh hoooh! buying my ticket was actually almost painless. I got on the phone at 10:00 LV time, and I got a ticket in section D, row J, seat 13. I'm pleased.

My wife got Section L210 Row C on the first pass. I went in a little while, maybe 30-45 minutes, later and got FLR-D Row R. This is a great way to turn 50!!! Anybody looking for 2 in L210???

Hey, just so you all know, there will be a cell phone list for this trip, and I will be happy to put it together. No need to do anything about it now, because it is a bit early yet, but I'm thinking in mid April I will post the information needed for the cell phone list.

I sat in 216 last fall on the other side you will like the seats. The Garden Arena is a great place. I went to Vegas with out tickets and bought mine walk up at the box office. I had row 3 offers at the street party but they would not come down offface value and there were 3 of us

Hey Tropo, we just talked to the Hooters people. They said no parrothead rates or events, so we are staying at the Tropicana. They better get their s*** together if they are, because they already lost some customers buy having their heads in the wrong area. That p*** me off.

Hi!

I will be going to the Vegas show on Saturday and it's my first Buffett concert EVER!!! I've been a fan now of his music for about 4 years now. I'm flying out from NJ to see this concert and want it to be off the hook; I've heard many great things about his shows and don't want this to be an exception! Where would be the best place to find a pre-party or tailgate?

I'm staying in MGM Grand that weekend. Help me out!!! This should be a blast
