looks like liz is alone on this one  http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/sad.gif

dude, i suck, i KNO! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/sad.gif

i will be very sorry to miss this show and meet up http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/fists%20crying.gif

 

i do, however, look forward to seeing you at RedRocks http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/trink38.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/653.gif

Must say came as a bug surprise after sending my a text Viva Liz Vargas http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/sad.gif

http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif Red Rocks might be diffcult flight just not sure...i thought we might drive or fly but not sure I want to do it alone. :|Feeling ... http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/sad.gif

Alright, that's enough of that! Don't be http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/sad.gif

 

Seriously, I am going to Vegas solo from Charlotte. I did this last tour too and never hooked up with the great TRF people. That was my only regret. Not this time. We will all definitely set up something. Hell, maybe a few of us should get tickets together so we can rock out at the show???? Thoughts?

 

Oh, and in case you are wondering no, I am not an ax murderer or some wierdo...just some 47 year old Rush freak that is going to make the Vegas show his 37th Rush show. First saw them on the 2112 tour. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/old.gif

 

I'm actually pretty mellow. I've decided to make a whole vacation out of it. Want to see the Hoover dam and play some golf. Might play a little blackjack or slots but not much of a gambler. Might even try to catch (and I'm afraid to admit I lover her http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/wub.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/blush4.gif ) a Celine Dion show. Then I just want to have a few drinks before the big show and enjoy my favorite band in a magical place...hopefully with some new friends. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/trink39.gif

 

Edit: And by the way, why are so many people from last time not going this time? I'm going again so I can hook up with the people that I missed last time. And now a lot of you aren't coming! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/fists%20crying.gif Come on! Change your minds!

Hey weatherman2112

I love veteran rush fans.

 

In fact in 2004 I met a lot of them. Perhaps my feelings are a melancoly.

I know a few other people going not TRF but on FB. Anyhoot, I had a dream last night that I went alone and in the pit again and Alex was showing off so it is a good sign. I have gone too many shows alone in fact it is what I do but will miss some pals from last time. Traveling alone has some challenges, however, I get first rows a lot of times on my own. I have no trouble meeting people etc meeting fans. Have had some trouble with TRF not fitting in at times. We will definitely meet up and I have a friend in Vegas and will ask her if she can score us some good tix. I met her in Toronto at the Rush show in 2007 and she put me in the 6th row.

will be my 29th show http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif

After my dream with the band happy I am happy http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/smile.gif I LOVE http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/wub.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/heart.gif my http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif

You have a good heart http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/trink39.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/goodpost.gif

I just talked an old high school buddy of mine in to joining me. He'll be flying in from Minnesota. It will be his 1st ever Rush concert! He's been a fan forever but never had a chance to see them. Should be a hoot!

 

Wow, 6th row would be sweet!!!! !!!!!!

 

Any word on when these tickets will actually go on sale?

I'm guessing the first or second week in May. That's when SLC is going on sale, and those two spots usually go on sale around the same time. Looks like I'll be coughing up a lot of cash at once http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif because I am going to both of these shows. Just me for Vegas, but my hubby and 10 year old son are going with me to SLC.

Also, I'm planning on spending the day Saturday at the mini RushCon. Those tickets go on sale next week...27th, I believe. It would be nice to hang out with some TRF members before the show...have a couple of cocktails, you know the drill! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/trink39.gif

Hey you

I just talked my neighborhood friend to come to and we shall see if it happens. WOuld love to get sixth row and waiting to see if Caroline calls me. I still don't know much about the mini Rushcon....is it the first ever? That's sounds cool. I NEVER miss RUsh in Vegas NEVER...MGM is classy and cool and I met Pat McLaughlin there too. Also the indoor show is awesome just really cool and your friend will love it no doubt. I went to Moving Pictures in Oakland when I was sixteen and hope the feeling is just the same. An absolute dream come true for me. BTW seen them almost 30 times and never enough times for me http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/tongue.gif

I can't wait to meet you http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif

Hey Liz, I'd be glad to keep you company. Not sure of any details yet, but how can I miss VEGAS??? I missed VEGAS in '08 after hitting it in '04 and '07, so this time around I have to find a way to get there. And I won't be making any hotel or ticket plans, that will have to come later. But it's in the pipeline.. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/yes.gif

Has anyone seen any more ticket info on the Vegas show? LiveNation still says pre-sale is tomorrow but neither Ticketmaster nor Musictoday have it listed. I am also getting tickets for the DC show tomorrow and TM has the show listed with ticket prices.

 

Another question about the MGM. My brother saw the Eagles there this weekend and said the venue was horrible unless you get floor seats. One door in/out and the bowl seat all face the center. Have others seen a show here? Is it a must to get floor seats?

 

Thanks.

I purchase my tickets at the show. I do know the locals purchase them via the MGM Venue to get close and personal. The MGM sell the tickets too. Broker prices are in the thousands. It is a tricky deal so I buy from MGM day of which is a gamble but got second row so? I am not sure what he means by horrible but I have always enjoy it on the floor. I prefer more than Mandalay. Again, just personal opinion for sound and venue. Friends make it worth the trip http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/smile.gif

Hey, Weatherman! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/bekloppt.gif

 

I want to make it to Vegas more than anything. But, as things stand for me financially right now, I'll be lucky to be on the lawn for Dallas. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/sad.gif If there is anyway possible that I can swing it, I'll be there. It'll be a very last minute thang. It would be cool to hang out with you this time. Dump those fancy shmancy friends you got stuck with last time, and do this thing right! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/653.gif

It's a bad time for a lot of people. I could probably go, but without everyone else, I'd rather wait until next summer, when more people from the board are planning on going.

I'll be @ The MGM in the morning to buy tickets. I don't really care where I sit, I just want to be in the building when the lights go down.

 

Edit to add:

 

I just found this: Events Ticket Center If I want to, I can buy MGM tickets right now.... http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/unsure.gif

 

I guess your credit card has to be a # Citi® card to be able to buy them @ the pre-sale, I don't know think I have one. I'm going to see if I know someone that does and see if I can pay them back plus whatever interest tickets add to the card balance.

Gonna get my ticket tomorrow morning! Since it's just me going to this show, I'm springing for the VIP package with all the swag! Maybe it is a rip-off, but I don't care! Been saving my pennies for this! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/1022.gif

 

Oh yeah...this is gonna ROCK!! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/2.gif

At this moment there are not enough tickets available to fulfill your request. Please try again using a lower quantity of tickets or choosing a different ticket type.

Currently there are not enough Reserved P2 - Lower tickets to fulfill your request.

 

That was for ONE ticket at 10:00 PDT!!!

I just got Floor Section A, Row H, seat 11. BUT, that was through the VIP sale at TicketBastard.

 

Yes, I am a sucker for paying $350 for one ticket, but hey...you only live once, right?!?! http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/confused13.gif http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif

 

I also bought 3 tickets for SLC through the regular fan pre-sale this morning and only spent $336.50. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/eyesre4.gif

No luck with Music Today presale, but I did find a code for Citibank. Got one ticket in section 11 for $99.35 after charges.

 

Does anyone know the size of this venue? I have never been.

MGM's site says it can seat up to 16,800 people...but I am sure it all depends on the event. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/confused13.gif

My local tiny airport just announced TODAY that they are adding weekend trips to Vegas for around $30 one way! HOLY CRAP! That's WAY CHEAPER than putting gas in my pickup and driving for 8 hours! So, I booked my flight! I am SO STOKED! This is going to be an awesome summer!
