There is also a very good Italian restaurant right next to hotel called Ciao Baby. Also about a block away is a TGIFridays.

Joe's afraid that if we make him go to Ciao Baby's we'll make him order for us all again. :lol: (And he did an awesome job, by the way!)

For those first-timers at Best Western, both restaurants are quite walkable.

So far, but yet, so near
Where I see the day
When my hair's full gray
and I finally...disappear. BUT NOT YET!!

I'm in. My friends who went with us last year aren't coming this year, so it's just DH and me. This year, we are getting there early so that we don't get detoured into the second lot again.

I'm in! Section 3R, Row M, seats 5 & 6.

Anyone else have problems with the Livenation website? Even right at 10am, I kept getting error messages, saying tickets weren't found. :o Panic started setting in, kept hitting the back button and doing a new search. Finally, finally, finally got through.

I think it's how they are weeding out the undesirables. Real fans keep trying! It has happened with all the purchases this weekend!

Definitely keep trying because they also kick back after CC denials and don't forget they have the 3 day return policy, so more may come back

Keep trying. Just for sheets and giggles I just tried again now (12:09 NY time) and tickets were still available. (BTW, better than what I got at 10am. D@mn it....)

Update @ 12:45 - Woo Hoo!!!! I was able to exchange my seats. Now have Orchestra D, seat #13 in rows V & W. Downside is hubby and I will be sitting one behind the other, upside is he won't be embarrassed by my antics this year!!! [smilie=battingeyes.gif]

If the new tickets you want are either the same price or more than what you paid for, you can get a refund for your unwanted tickets within 3 days.
