    I ended up getting 2 in Section C, so have 2 for sale in section F Row C.

  2. I sure hope today goes better than yesterday ...

    Came home from work with a nauseating migraine.

    AC went out on the master bedroom side of the house.

    Went to move the truck, drill bit stuck in a brand new tire!

     

    ugh ...

     

    We are heading down about 3.30 today, have to find the willcall booth and get the M&G tickets.

    OK BUT IF I AM A PAYING GUEST AT THE HOTEL THERE IS NOTHING ANYONE CAN DO ABOUT IT.

    If you do it while they're on tour, I'm pretty sure his security won't let you get that close.

    MAYBE I WILL SURPRISE HIM WHEN HE IS DRINKING CARROT JUICE AND DOING THAI CHI AS I KNOW HE IS IN TO THAT NEW AGE ORIENTAL STUFF.

    Now .. that's funny.

    Years ago I think I would have really wanted to meet them enough to pay $3K. But now I'd love to just party with the from the front row for 3 hours. 11th row is the closest I've ever made it since I started seeing them in 1991 and that was this past weekend in Hershey. Might splurge on the next tour for first 3 rows if available. If anyone has any tips for getting first 3 rows without knowing someone I'd love to hear it.

    Ditto for me. I've got 13th row for Portland this year, and that's the closest I've ever been. How anyone can get the first few rows without paying an arm and a leg to a scalper, or by knowing someone is beyond me.

    Many venues have VIP programs. Where you pay a "membership" fee to get the first yay/nay on events. The memberships are crazy and they do not include tickets.

     

    I looked into it for a venue here in phoenix, The Dodge Theater, it was about 5k+ a year for the membership alone for a 2 seat option! With the prices being what they are, they are likely only enrolled by the elite or ticket brokers.

    I have thought about waving some cash around and trying to buy a meet and greet from someone at a show, but am nervous. Would there be anything illegal about attempting to do this ? Would it be like scalping tix at a show ? I scored second row to the first LA show in June, and would really hate to miss the show being escorted out to the parking lot or even worse, a holding cell.

    "scalping" is legal in most states. M&G were free so I think you can name your price for what the market will bare.

    Is this for Real?!! Paying $1700.00 for Meet and Greet?!!

    Yes. Most I have seen are 1750-2000 each for concert tickets and M&G Passes.

     

    I will be listing mine at 4k for the pair and take offers from there wink.gif

     

    The pictures taken at the events are here;

    Excuse me, coming through, this man is drunk at shit and is a male prostitute...

    Have to admit, that was pretty damned funny. Then Bubbles commentary, yeah, I have seen Ricky use that one a lot, usually the cops show up!

     

    In all seriousness though, Mike (bubbles) and Alex playing acoustic closer to the heart gave me goose bumps the first time I watched it.

  9. Just picked up tickets today to The Trailer Park Boys Comedy Tour. Too bad it is a week and a half before Rush is in town. Have seen videos where Alex has made guest appearances.

     

    Any one else a fan?

    Meet & Greets must be the worst part of the job for a touring musician.

    If they did not want to do it, they wouldn't. I have met others and depending on mood and circumstances obviously, most were very appreciative or appeared to be.

     

    I believe that Geddy and Alex work them more of photo-ops than what I would really call a meet & greet.
