Anybody have any idea how many rows are in the center sections on the field?

I called New Era and they had no idea.

If you still haven't received your tickets I'd call newera asap, especially if you purchased side view tickets. Some of the side views were declared "obstructed view" after the point of sale and they had to upgrade the seats. When they upgraded mine, the person who retyped my order ommitte...

Finally! :o My tickets finally arrived. When they moved my "obstructed" seats down to the field they entered my name in two different fields, thereby omitting part of the address field in the printout. They called me on Sunday to find out why the tickets got returned to them as "undel...

...and yeah, I got made fun of a lot for being into Buffett in high school in the early-mid 80's.

Hell, most folks laughed at the fact that I was a Deadhead...but even my Deadhead friends laughed at my Buffett collection.

Oh, and yeah, I never really went through stages 1-5, or if I did it happened in one fell swoop. I grew up in the seventies with relatives who lived on the water or on boats and most of them were Buffett fans. Hell, for my 9th or 10th birthday my uncle gave me a cowboy hat and an 8-track of Changes....

I thought I was going to just completely bypass 8 until a few years ago. Then I got shut out of tickets for a few shows around the time the "corporate stuff" was really taking off. I mean, it was getting crazy...a new store/restaurant opening here and there, Margaritaville Tequila was gett...

Mine didn't come yet, but I called and was told the same thing. We're in M on the field now instead of 141. I'm gonna look on the bright side...we'll be closer and maybe feel a little more "inside" the show, but it's gonna be a long walk to the bathroom and beer line. :o At least they didn...

Yup...mine was charged on March 6th and still no tickets. I still need to go get today's mail, so who knows...maybe they'll be there.

The alphabet part was the part that made no sense to me..."insane" was even in the word I used for it here and on the phone with the nice lady. But, she really didn't seem to be telling a lie. Maybe she was told to say it, maybe she had no clue, or maybe this company is so overwhelmed that...

No cupcakes fo us!

She said not to worry, though. She sounded like she knew what she was talking about, too. She could've been telling a big fat lie, of course, but I hope not.

She laughed about my W issue, too, and then said to give it until the 15th before calling back.

For those still waiting, I called some kind of "newera" central office today and spoke to a very nice and fairly informative woman. She said that they are, indeed, overwhelmingly swamped with these orders and that they're working slowly but surely on each order. No news there. :roll: But h...

Is it August yet?

Well, looks like somebody went and got 'em.

Hope it wasn't the scalpers.

Hopefully some PH lurkers on this board jumped in and grabbed them.

Hi!

Both nights, couple different price levels:

This might be old news, but I figured it couldn't hurt to post it. Hey, if it helps one person get in, it's worth it.

We're staying at the Holiday Inn, and a Philly friend told me that the hotel lot can sometimes get filled up with tailgaters for Eagles games. Any of you local folks know if the hotel takes any precautions to save spots for guests when it gets crazy like this? Maybe they have a guest list or somethi...

Nice offer!

Helluva way to celebrate getting Philly tickets.

emotw!

Thanks

That's where we wound up, too.

It actually looks kinda ok, especially since I didn't even get them until 1:30.

Just grabbed a pair...and a room at the Holiday Inn, too.

It's been a long time sice Jones Beach, the temptation to buy tickets was just too strong.

Got two on the side (141) for Thursday about a half hour ago...so pairs are still popping up from time to time. This'll be the first time the wife and I have hit the Philly area for Buffett...we've been north and south of there, but never in...not even Camden. But this year the road trip seemed to c...
