Oh that is so cool, I've seen pictures of Montseratt pre-volcano eruption and thought it was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! What about the volcano? Is it through spewing bad stuff (for now)????

Wonder what his ticket allotment is like. I'd hate to pay $225 for the opportunity to buy crap seats! I mean, if you're the person who lives in the area and usually buys great seats through a broker, THIS may be a great opportunity. Do you usually see shows at these venues? Do you spend more than $...

It's Jimmy Koplik, a prominent concert promotor in Connecticut. If you join his insiders club for a hefty price, ...

Unfortunately, they still don't say where the various price breaks are.

Interesting article, but not surprising.

For Great Woods, I got into Ticketmaster.com right at 10:00. My transaction went through quickly. Yet, I was only able to get outside tickets. Someone (many someones) somehow managed to get in quicker. Now I know how.

Re: ORLANDO

So, we and some buddies are heading down there in less than two weeks. Our goal is to drink our body weight everyday in booze.

Wouldn't trade the experience for anything, but glad he's back at Great Woods this year. We were in the grandstand and the sound was okay. The sound on the music was good for the most part, but we couldn't hear what he was saying between songs. Go to Wrigley and have a great once in a lifetime exper...

You're probably right, slightly shorter in terms of distance from Providence. But for ease of getting there, I would use Hartford (Bradley). It's all highway from airport to casino.

Did Ticketmaster online finally get their act together this year? Got in right at 10:00 and did not get booted back out as in some past years. Got 6 in Section 9 for Wednesday. My group will all be sitting together for the first time in a while. Makes you wonder though, who got all the inside seats?
