I'll be close: 104 Row F, seat 107

(also the best seats I've ever had, but I did sit in the 7th row center one time, right next to Tina Gullickson's mother - it was GREAT!)

Woo-hoo! Can't wait til May!

WOW, section 2 row JJ. Anyone have any experience in the pit? Sometimes they are too low and you can't see too well. This must be too good to be true.

They do not understand who Jimmy is but we have a couple of months to educate them. Nice bar and plenty of room with lots of parking.
Send me the info, and I'll head over and check 'em out.

Good heavens! They *are* putting some good seats out there!

I haven't bought yet. I'll probably go back in sometime today and get lawn, just because. $150-something for a ticket is a bit pricey for me right now, especially if I want to try to attend stuff like Phins to the West or Migration. I *did* have a section 107 come up when I looked.

I'll betcha the PHIP seats are back in the 200s somewhere...

Also wondering about the PIT. Ended up with four in the PIT row CC. Heard different things. Very close, but sometimes the sound is an issue. Bought the tickets at the Pavillion. First in line, but I did not want take a chance of throwing them back and getting another choice. Also ended up with section CC row 4 in Hawaii. ABout time to go where it's warm.

Got 2 lawn tickets since even the 200 sections were so expensive. That's okay, lawn is the best! This will be my first show at Concord, I usually make the pilgrameage to San Diego or Irvine. Is it true there will be no tailgating ahead of time? Please keep updating what the plan is for something near the venue ahead of time. REDWINEMAKER...won't it be nice not having to drive to Shoreline or the horrible Shark Tank?

I was just checking ticketbastard again and they still have seats in the 100's- thats great but I guess they aren't selling as fast as last year. Bad marketing,

I went to a show there a few years ago and there was no tailgating, just a big grass lawn to park on. I'm sure there will be someplace to have a little pre-party though. Thanks PP for getting things moving on this.

I got four VIP tickets YAHOO. The place I found is in the new shopping center at Clayton Road and Ygnacio Valley Road. It's call the Guadalahara Grill (sp). Looks pretty good when I stopped by early Sunday afternoon. Hopefully somebody from Lat. 38 will check on it and we can put together a pre-party.

Well, TicketB@stard is screwing up my ability to buy the bloody ticket online. :( For some reason it doesn't like the information I'm giving it, and I'm giving it 100% correct and complete info. Don'cha hate when people make it hard for you to give them money?

Screw 'em. I've got over three months, and I can always run out there and buy 'em at the box office and save the "convenience" fees. Seems like there will be plenty available. Besides, when you add in all the fees, the total bottom line for a lawn seat is almost *twice* the face value of the ticket! ($55 and change for a $30.50 ticket)

Or I'll wait for a craigslist discount.

I think I'm ready to go for a walk now...

Glad you had such a good experience there. Just isn't my favorite place to see a show by any means.

How did you guys get those tickets? I am very jealous. I went on right at 10 am and got bloody section 202. The tickets were $156 each, ouch. Anyways I will keep checking the post to see where the parties are. has anyone confirmed the rumour that no alcohol is allowed at the pavillion? Is anyone traveling in from out of town? it would be fun to try to all stay at the same hotel. I know there are a few within a couple of miles.

I know down in Sandy Eggo the PH club down there is usually able to 'negotiate' with Coors Amphitheater to open the gates earlier than normal and to allow some usually not allowed items in the parking lot. Does anyone at Latitude 38 have any pull to get something like this done?
This is going to be a great week:

13th - Birthday
15th - Wedding
19th - Buffett!!!

I tried a few times. actually the first time they gave me 104 like row N but then their website crashed. the 2nd time they tried to give me 200 something so I tried again and got the great ones!
