It's up on the Margaritaville big board...the dates for Vegas are 10/21 & 10/28. I know a lot of you were wondering (including me for a while) but now you can rest easy

Tickets on sale next Monday, 8/21. Now to figure out if I can make one of these weekends work!!
Nothing listed on TicketMaster yet, I'm shocked.

Now everyone can stop speculating/worrying if it's true or not.

Get your airfare, book your rooms, get ready to battle ticketm%$ter on Monday and get your butts to VEGAS!

Planning my first trip to see Jimmy in Vegas. I was looking at the seating chart and noticed that there are different ones for different performers. Anyone know what type of seating chart to look at for MGM. Do they use the normal end stage setup
Thanks

Any insight on ticket prices? I imagine they'll probably be in line with the Mohegan, anyone know?

I think Vegas was a little more expensive than Mohegan last year.

Tickets are not up on Ticketmaster for the October 21 show yet. Should I be getting worried???

Yes, panic, and throw your arms up in the air, and run around screaming "Oh my god!!!"

What's the over/under on when the first person logs on and gets all panicky because it's not on ticketmaster.com yet?

I knew I should have taken today in the pool.

Gee, thanks.

Hang in there murPH, TM is noted for not being very timely. There was a Tom Petty show earlier this year that didn't show up on TM until 30 minutes before tickets went onsale. Needless to say there was a few panic stricken Petty fans that day.

Keep checking TM, they will have the shows up there on their web site soon enough. The only panic you will probably have is when you see what the ticket prices are listed at.

I'm with Beach Bob here.....

I know there are 3 levels of pricing..

Prices will be $210, $105, $68.25, plus additional fees

BUT my question is.....HOW bad are the cheap seats? Are the completely and utterly horrible?

Please advise!

Skibo · Post by **Skibo** » August 16, 2006 3:40 pm

The cheap seats are not bad at all for the price. The arena is a giant oval. The sight lines are good. It is a great time no matter where you sit.

I've never been personally, but have heard that no seats are bad, in the MGM. But there usually aren't very many cheap seats to go around...
