If no one's answered, maybe it's just because they can't because they haven't seen a show from the front of the lawn at USANA and the cheap seats at the MGM to enable them to compare the two. I myself have been to the MGM, but not USANA.

That One Guy... I am from Salt Lake, and have seen Rush at USANA at least five times. I've also been to the MGM three times for Rush shows. Unfortunately, I can't tell you about lawn seating at USANA because I've always been in the front 3 rows. But, I have been on the second to highest row in the corner at the MGM, and it was not bad at all. You may be a little further back at the MGM, but you will also be elevated much more than the grass at USANA. In other words, cheap seats at the MGM won't be bad at all. It is a small enough venue (smaller than Energy Solutions Arena) that even the worst seat isn't that bad. I hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a small enough venue (smaller than Energy Solutions Arena) that even the worst seat isn't that bad. I hope that helps. I have been to many a arena show and in my opinion MGM is pretty small. I took my daughter to Lady GAGA last minute last year the night before Rush and was like 4 rows from the back dead center and felt pretty good about seeing the show. It didnt really feel that far back. Before anyone flames me for Gaga I'll tell you she was fantastic, had a great rockin' backline band and sang her ass off! We dug it so much we are going back again next month. This time we got Sec. 14 row H so we will be right on top of the show. I just got my Rush tix today Sec 14 row N so I'm super happy esp. since it looks like the only one for me after a record 4 shows last year including a crazy 3 shows in 5 days! Did I mention I love this band!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unattractive Truth Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi folks, I'm new to the board but not Rush or the online Rush community. My wife and I went to vegas last summer, and will be returning again this summer. I drew incredible seats, and can't wait to go. My wife indulges me and enjoys the trips. She likes the live show, but is not crazy like me. Anyway, Viva Las Vegas!!  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unattractive Truth Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 If you look at this link, (from MGM Grand) it looks like they don't have the very back on sale. It seems to me last summer most of the seats were filled (It holds something like 14-16,000) http://www.mgmgrand.com/entertainment/gran...lans%2fRush.gif It shows you where the least expensive seats are. Just for kicks I tried Ticketmaster right now, and pulled 211 Row G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These sections will be closed off and covered with a black tarp. Rush is one of these acts and this was also the case last year. I can tell anyone intrested that the very back availible on this chart will be fine seats with a nice view. I have sat about 3 rows from the top back(the closed off for this show) at other shows and thought it was good so the lowers are even better. See you there!
