classicrawker Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 For the 5/25 show I can get a pair in section 117 for $230 each...gah, should I go for them or still take my chances and hold out hope on $85's so I can do both shows? Depends on where you want to sit...I bet they put more $ 85 tickets on sale but you may end up in nosebleeds.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zint Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 All seats for 5/25 are sold out, except for some lower bowl.I don't know if they'll bother with more $85 tickets now, but they might reduce for the remaining lower bowl seats.Not sure if they'll bother with this one.Radio station today said this gig is sold out...which is weird becuase I can still pull up lower bowl tickets.

The show isn't sold out yet, that's for sure by looking at Ticketmaster. I'd love to try and swing 2 shows, but don't want to miss out by taking too big of a gamble... Why ?

Zint Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 It's up to you man, if you're comfortable with looking at their backs all night, and not seeing the screen and the cool stage and shit.I know you've already seen the stage and all, but...personally, that view would bum me out. They might mark down those other lower bowls if they don't move...and they are in full view at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sabbath Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I was more interested in the $85 tickets, even with their chances. Unless other tickets get marked down to like $110 or so, I probably won't go. I've got to slow down a bit right now after the Ozzy Meet & Greet ticket, plus I have the beach and a lot of other planned expenses (home theater stuff).Like I said before, even if I don't get tickets for the DC show, I was lucky enough to get tickets for the Philly shows, and those are bound to have some differences between the two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a picture on IORR, can't find it right now because their forum is a complete mess, but it was from the next section over from Vegas (The equivalent of 116 in the ACC), and even that was a side view. I dunno, I'll decide by this weekend. They're not optimal seats, but they are seats for a good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zint Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 116 at ACC is rear view, no question.117 ia moreso sideview, I guess depending on which end of the section you wind up at.Are the tickets low row?If so, that's not bad, if you're cool with side view...you'd be right in the action.

Powerage5 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 John Mayer again. Which means odds are Respectable or Going Down. I'd bet money on Respectable since they've played it this year already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Keep me posted on next Saturday's!95% sure we're going, just haven't got our tickets yet. We can get seats in 117 for $220, back of the floor for $270, or middle of the floor for $330. I think we're gonna watch the prices on on those middle floor seats, hope they dip below $300. Then I think we'll just get the cheapest we can for the 6th.I'll let you know what's up. We oughta get together with Zint and get some drinks before the show or something EDIT: better news yet - the Alice show got replaced with a Buffalo gig on the same day - tickets to that one are only $20! So we can keep that Alice show too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zint Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 I'd keep an eye on those mid floors.I have a feeling the 5/25 show is going to have quite the electric vibe going on.Most of those seats have sold to people willing to pay any price to see the Stones (and most of the seats are sold!)...it's going to pretty amped up in there.Plus the Stones love Toronto!Who's on the T.O. roster from here??

Plus my mom of course. Would you be up for a little pre-show MyGNR get-together? My mom's only concern about the floor seats are that she's pretty short, about 5'2" - she doesn't want to spend that much money and get stuck behind someone that's like 6' tall. I'm trying to convince her the floors would be a better bet if the prices keep dropping though.There's someone on IORR that just listed a pair of back of floor tickets for $1255...good luck selling those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing - we should all get together somewhere for a beer or two before the show provided the line-up for the $85 seats doesn't keep me outside for too long.Those $330 floors don't sound too bad at all. The guy selling the $1255? Good luck! It was like when I say a ticket for the Leafs/Boston game on May 5th for like $14 000 on eBay. A single ticket up in the 300s. Good luck with that one.

Oh yea, forgot you had $85's We'll be heading up to Toronto pretty early, so we'd be able to meet up any time (Or after the gig too if that works!)

James Bond Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I should be there hopefully by 4:00 (I thought I had booked the day off work but I forgot to so the best I can swing is an early out).What time have the Stones been coming on, 9:00? I'd check my ticket for the start time but alas, no ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems as long as you get there before doors open you're okay.IF you get pit (And that's a damn big "if"), it filled very slowly in Brooklyn. As in, by 8 it wasn't even half full.

James Bond Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 That sounds like a good plan. Meet up quick and if I do manage to get into the venue in a reasonable amount of time grab a beer before the show!If I do get pit I'll be too busy shitting my pants to worry about getting in there right away.

Powerage5 Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Are there any pubs right near the ACC? There's got to be something either on Bay or Yonge that's within a couple minutes walking... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 To be honest I have no idea. My usual ACC venture consists of Union Station and walking right into the venue, and I haven't been there enough in the last couple of years to have gone looking for a pub nearby, save for Real Sports or whatever it's called right out front.
