Just did a quick count on Stubhub, they've got around 800 tickets for sale with just over 300 being lawns. They've got four (selling either as 4 or just a pair) in my row that are a few dollars cheaper than what I spent because they only charge a $17 flat rate shipping fee, I don't see where they're charging all those ticketmaster convience fees. What a difference a few years make, there was a time that two shows would sell out in 10 minutes and you'd be stuck paying a premium with the brokers. I recall paying for my first show just over $350 for a pair of reserved that were face value $98 tickets.
Maybe its the Tuesday show, maybe the economy, maybe the audiance is just getting older, maybe its too much tequila or not quite enough.....Ticketmaster still has tickets too.

12 Days to go!!!!! I will be the tighta** on the lawn. I like to be able to move around. I was asked to sit down at the Columbia Show because I was blocking somebodys view. That really ticked me off. I also plan on having a good time.

I've seen people sitting at a Buffett show too, sitting there like they're at the symphony or something. "Oh bravo, Muffy, he's playing that margarita song! I know this one." Or "I hope he does that song about, oh, what's that food poor people eat?" I usually get isle seats for the extra room, just sometimes you get an usher that "Must keep the isles clear at all costs!" Why I don't know.

An early season weekday show with people at work and kids in class, in a tough economy, with very expensive tickets. Sounds like a formula to keep people away. I have fond memories of the best seats being $55, and a hot Thursday and Saturday afternoon in the summer when the gates opened at 9am. Gone forever, probably.
