osage2112 Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 San Antonio, I paid list for 2 seats...got lucky. (been so long ago, I can't really remember how much I paid) Houston: 4 x $349. SCALPER...I had row L, Alex side. I was happy with the seats. Too bad there is NO WAY to keep the tickets out of the hands of the scalpers. There should be a law.

danielmclark Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Houston, $300 x 2. That was pre-sale, VIP package. Row E, Geddy side. Because of the way the rows are shaped like a rainbow going out from the stage though, we were actually about 10 feet away from the stage, much closer than the row letter implies. Well worth the money, even though the VIP package sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khan Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 $94/$96 (Whatever it was on pre-sale) Row F Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an Escape Artist Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 90 bucks for 2 lawn seats at the door. I refuse to give Ticketmaster any more money than I have to. I have seen them up front plenty of times. I could see them just fine from where I was. I will buy the dvd when ever they do one. I will see them up close then.

garbo Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 (edited) Well, damn, I want to feel the lash of Geddy's spit across my face so looks like I'm going to be shuffling out the big bucks. Or I need a rich boyfriend. WTF is wrong with this picture that it is I, the Geddicorn, seeking out the boyfriend to drag to a Rush concert? Hath hell frozen over? I've found for other concerts though that it depends on the venue and location, however, I'm not sure if that's true. I would love if someone could clear that up for me.

Rushchick10 Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 SLC: 3 X $100 (section 203, row H, Alex's side...not terrible, but not great either) Auburn, WA: bought an extra ticket off of a great lady here on this forum. Oh, and she even gave me her extra hotel room because someone backed out on her. Section 105, row 3, Alex's side. Price: WAY too good to pass up!! (it's actually the second section up in the venue). Las Vegas: 1 X $350, VIP presale. Section Floor A, row H (eighth row, Geddy's side...great seat!) Dallas, TX: 1 X approx. $400 after fees from a broker. Section 100, row B, Geddy's side. We were second row, RIGHT in front of Geddy's keyboards. That was, by far, THE BEST seat I have ever had at a Rush concert. So, just in TICKETS, I spent well over $1000 this tour, not to mention travel, merchandise, etc. I don't wanna talk about it... Shooting for front row next time around.

Lost In Xanadu Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 $80 x 5 presale - 2nd price tier, dead center of the ampitheater in Milwaukee (3 rows behind the mixing board, first row that was "open") Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish_matt Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 $95 x3, Row DD center. St.Louis, Verizon ampi. Awesome show... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFireYYZ Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 $70 - first day of sale for Mohegan Sun. They were sold out of $90 tickets. Seats were in the back of arena looking directly at stage in the center. View was good, there are no bad seats at Mohegan Sun. Sound was alright, but not great.

SeaTurtle Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Chicago, presale $180 x2 - I think it was section 308. Those were great seats, almost center. Then we paid $60 for 2 extra tickets on eBay a couple hours before the show so my brother and dad could go. We'd thought that Charter One Pavilion was the kind of place that had no bad seats, but they were so far to the side that my dad said they couldn't even see Alex or Neil.

Lerxst Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Including fees/taxes, paid close to $90 apiece for row 24, floor, just left of center. Bought 'em through presale. Best seats for a Rush show I've ever had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Principled Man Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Marcus Amphitheater, Milwaukee I went to StubHub and paid 2 x $200.00 for front middle section, about the 30th row - almost dead center of the stage. My best seats ever (so far). I took my niece, and when we got to our seats, she was absolutely speechless. Getting her to stop talking is always a challenge.... http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff295/unk2112/Rush-Summerfest001.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That One Guy Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Me and several friends went. We got front of the lawn section, $32 a piece. We had amazing sound, but of course back there it was hard to see the guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was over to your right a bit. I paid, I think, about $120?? We were in the middle I would say. Seattle was extremely expensive. I've said this countless times here, but, if you wanted a SINGLE seat in the first five rows you were paying about $1,500. PER seat. However, if this is what it takes, then I will justify paying that for the next tour. I know it would be worth it.

apetersvt Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 $22 for 2nd row on Alex's side, directly from Ticketmaster (plus getting 7th row for the show the previous night). But, that was the Presto tour. Not so lucky this tour. Got on the pre-sale within seconds of tickets going sale. Closest I could get was about 50 rows back for about 100 bucks each. So, we decided to sit in the 300s level for half the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
