I'm shocked people are not used to N2O in the lots at Philly. It's the freakin' nitrous capital of the US for heaven's sake. They have the damn tanks lined up for concerts, sports, hell even the Ice Capades they sit out there for! Now I've had a few balloons over the years, but it really does get ri...

As for seats, I have to say that the Diamond Club seats, although way back, were quite nice. The entire row in front of us was empty most of the first set and the second set my wife and I were the only ones in our row! Room is good! On the other hand, the Diamond Club wanted $7.00 per beer and $10.5...

Being my first Buffett show I have the following observations: 1) Very fun to be in a circus environment again (note avatar for the other circus) 2) Crowd enthusiasm really makes a concert fun and there was no shortage of energy! 3) The lot (aka Shakedown St.) is better as the older crowd minimizes ...

Crap, now what should I do? I am not going to get there today until 7pm as my wife has to work. I have Lot M/N parking but it sounds like I should not even waste my time trying to go there. Maybe I should just drive up Broad and taxi it down to the show?? I do not want to spend and hour driving arou...

Maybe they added a section further back on the field?? Seems like a lot of open space there and I think I read somewhere that they had to change some people's seats becasue they were discovered to be obstructed by the final design of the stage or something. maybe this is the fix it section??

There are also Field MM Row 46 on New Era for only $60 each after charges. Not sure exactly where field MM is though - don't see it on any seating chart

Someone had asked how to get close seats without paying $500 a pop. Just wait! Just now I went to New Era for fun and could have had 2 Field E row 10! Those would have been $350 a piece on eBay a month ago. Still at $283 from New Era it isn't cheap - might find someone at the show even cheaper - but...

Diamond Club?

If you were behind home plate I assume this was the Diamond Club? Since I wil be there Sat and I really have a problem with crappy sound at shows, is there anything good about this section??? Decent bar or bathrooms, or screen inside or somethin??

221 is the VIP deck, private bars, upscale food and bathrooms- hence the price - you could not even buy these on sale day - they were presale for season ticket holders of the Philles only.

Got mine (internet order) on Sat 3-26-05. I am curious - does anyone know if the Diamond Club area will actually be sort of VIP as it has been described. Sometimes these "features" do not always apply to events outside the norm. I am contemplating selling field seats for Diamond seats as m...

Part of the issue is ticket scalping. If scalpers get $100+ per ticket over and over, there are two choices. Let the scalpers make the money or the band/promoters make the money. Supply and Demand. Scalpers can only go so high for most seats, so raising base pricing minimizes their profits. Customer...

I was 18. Was supposed to go out deep sea fishing near Ocean City MD but stayed up till 4 am partying. At 5am and no sleep I made it to the boat and the captain started with Cheesburgers in Paradise as we headed out to sea. I ended up spending the whole day hanging over the edge of the boat dry-heav...

Same deal here, I am supposed to be working! Just got 4 on new era's site for Sat again in 209. Not sure how that works, if cards are not valid, or they find more than 8 were bought and start cancelling orders, or if they just keep releasing a few here and there? This happens with TM too, so it pays...
