I'm guessing about 25 rows in the permanent seats. Haven't seen any information on the field seating.

yea, they are good tix! I just got some awesome ones for Frisco!

They sell them in advance for those with a password. Usually its for season ticket holders to that venue, but lately it seems alot of people can get in on it.
you buying today?
I'm trying this morning. I only need 4, so that's what I'll shoot for. Do these tickets sell out super quick like the normal ones do?

There are only a limited number of Presale tickets available . . .
The back of the house seating is bleachers I believe not sure if they have a back . . .


Good Luck to all . . .

I've got my top secret method already "ticking" away . . . It has yet failed to get me tickets. I got in on Hannah Montana but because the seats were so bad I threw them back. When I went back in it was sold out . . . . Then it worked again on the re-release of Hannah tix . . . .

I'll be seeing you guys there.

I was at Mid field on the field for GA. I didn't pay too much attention to the seating. In the photo the back appears like bleacher bench with a back. I think the sides have individual seats and the endzone is a bleacher style.

Any of the ones in Joliet should work . . . they are usually broken so there is no traffic to impede your progress.

There is also one in Bridgeview whihc I believe goes over a small train yard . . . You can stop by and say hi on concert day then head south on Harlem to said bridge.

:wink:

The seating on the field will be the folding chairs which lock together then. No idea on number of rows in a section or seats in a row. Its a good size field though.

The Pre-sale lasts until the allotted seats are gone. I would not imagine more than 2-4,000 seats available total. Once the allotment is sold they are sold leaving Monday as the next opportunity.
