10-29-05 Vegas Show

Randy B · Post by **Randy B** » June 20, 2005 1:22 pm

Just got through fighting with Ticketmaster for the Vegas show on the 29th. Had three phones going and 2 computers trying to get tickets and we could still not get floor seats. My bride to be and I are getting married on the 22 and going to the show 29 as part of our Honeymoon. If anyone has any extra closer floor seats, we will be more than happy to trade ours or buy the extras. I know that this is in the wrong spot, but I just wanted to get the word out there. Spread the word if you could, you never know when a stranger can help someone out. Thanks again.

we got tickets for the 22nd show in section J row B..

Does anyone know if there seats are pretty good. They appear to be on the floor but the furthest back.

If anyone can tell me if these seats are good or bad I would appreciate it.

I've never sat there, but it is a long way back there...as long as your tall enough to see over people, you'll be fine...there are 100 seats that I'd rateher have to be 100% honest...

You are going to a Buffett concert in Vegas, of course they are good.

did anyone get seats in A,B,C? There are still pairs on the floor for the 22nd in D E F, but I never got a pair to show up in the first three sections...I know its vegas and there is addtional holdback for comps, but I just wondered

I would rather sit side stage in the any of the bowls than be on the floor. I've been to 5 JB shows at the MGM Grand Garden and the time we sat half way back on the floor was my least favorite.

though im not going to the show, i checked to see how tickets were selling and it seems that you could basically get tickets in many sections

Vegas shows are always like that, they never sell out as fast as the other shows.

Its not what you know, its who you know. Thankfully I have some very, VERY dear friends that know a few whales.

Last year I was Section B, Row 1, dead center.

We cannot plan the trip for another month or so ...didnt want to be stuck w/ tickets.....Its a little scary to head all the way to Vegas w/o tickets...Do you really think I can find them "at the door".

well as i have said before, i do this all the time. there are always people who buy too many tickets, find out they can't get the price they thought they would, then have to unload before the show starts. or there are people who have other people bail on them, leaving them with extras.

and you can find them on ebay usually at a lower than face price just before the show if you're comfortable with that...otherwise, every year I've gone (which is the last 5) they've had seats left at the box office for face, now granted there isn't much selection, but they do come up

well We've never been to Vegas...so I think we will take the gamble.... I did get tix for Tampa on Ebay ...great seats and less than face.....(I was closed out of ticketmaster after 7 minutes@@)

Yes; just ask defimoff or BB.

We have extras, good seats at face. We bought some for a couple of strangers that couldn't get through the TM BS. Looks like we made some new friends, and we bought a pair for some BNrs that were strapped for cash at this time. We have one pair left, pm us and if it works out and we still have them, we can work it out. have fun.
