This is a Friday!

SEATED SHOW

[OneWAY]

Definitely going! I've been to every one of Al's shows here since 2010. Cool venue, even if it's seated.

HM Bestie recently relocated to Dallas. Maybe maybe maybe

[OneWAY]

The only problem I have with this venue (and it might not even be because of the venue) is that I NEVER see Al after the show. The backside of the theater is gated off completely with the busses inside. A bunch of people have waited outside here before, but unless you're supposed to be there past 1 AM, I don't think meet and greets are going to happen.

Then again, this is supposedly the closest venue Al plays to his in-laws, so there's that.

Now, I'm confused and I hope someone can clarify. His site says pre-sales start tomorrow morning @ 10am but Verizon's web site says pre-sales don't start on Thursday 10am. Is he just announcing that pre-sales are starting (overall) Tuesday morning @ 10am?

So, just tried to find tickets and I only see one section open, and no more than one seat at a time. I assume they haven't opened up the full sell yet?

You say "even if it's seated." Do you prefer shows that are not seated (festivals, etc)?

[OneWAY]

I personally don't mind, but the energy is really different at a standing show. Alicia (the one that posting this topic originally) prefers non-seated. I went to a standing show a few years ago, and it was pretty cool, but it was in Austin, and I'm pretty sure there were illegal substance fumes being pumped out of most people there.

EDIT: Got tickets! Section 102, Seats K9-10. Might bring my little sister?

[darkhornet]

I'm not sure I'm going to have the money to buy tickets immediately. For those with a lot of experience, how difficult is it to get tickets after a few days? Do the shows usually sell out quickly?

[OneWAY]

In the past, it hasn't been so bad, but with all of the exposure (it's definitely more than usual), it's hard to say. Typically, you won't run into problems unless the show is REALLY close to starting.
