stephena Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 QUOTE (Prattster @ Oct 3 2012, 04:24 PM) Yeah, for me, had to cut it somewhere. And, hate to sound like a guy who's past his prime (even though I am that guy), but my days of driving 3 plus hours each way for a midweek show are probably behind me. If it was opening night, we'd probably go down and stay, but as it is we're headed up to TO next weekend, so I guess that's the line. Ugh - don't you hate it when you realize you're what you used to call "too old"? I hear ya there... Opening night and Bridgeport are probably it for me this leg...
Prattster Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Honestly, we were only planning to go opening night. Then a bunch of weird things happened within the last couple of weeks. Now I'm going to Boston with my brother (long story), and we're going up to TO next weekend to see our friends play the RushCon gig. We don't have tickets to the Sunday show yet, but I guess we'll just see what happens. Who knows.
Kelly D Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Is there a parking garage or a public parking lot around the venue that doesn't cost too much?
stephena Posted October 4, 2012 Posted October 4, 2012 i have no idea about how much parking will cost but here is a pretty good map of the lots around the arena: http://www.websterbankarena.com/ViewArticl...TCLID=205157093

Hi,there are other garages and lots in the area you can park,but keep in mind,this arena isn't in the safest neighborhood if you have to walk back after the show..my advice would be to park in the garage attached to the arena,the few extra $ will be worth it for your safety...

He hasn't seen Rush in over 20 years... loves the new album... So yeah - just picked up two tickets. Guess I'll see you there, after all stephena!

Hopefully I can still see Alex from there! If the Barnum House is the consensus, I hope to see you guys there.

Yikes. This is when traveling alone sucks. Thanks for the advice! Absolutely park in the designated lots surrounded by fans. Don't want to scare but want to make you aware. Bridgeport is a bit rough.

byoungjr Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 Quick question for anyone that has been to Webster Arena...is Row A on the floor the first row in a section? I have seen some tickets state that AA is the first row. I have yet to find a detailed seating chart and was curious. Thanks...
Prattster Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 It's double letters first in the loge but don't know about the floor. I can tell you though, I have yet to see any floor tickets with double letters for resale. That kinda leads me to believe it's single letters first.
aj11nort Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 selling meet and greets for tomorrows show anyone interested?
tomhealey Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 StephenA, I'll see you tomorrow night. Saw you briefly at Manchester. I hope to be at Barnum Public House around 5.

Yefa Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I am so excited for tonight! I'm planning to park near the venue, pick up my ticket from will call, and then head over to the Barnum Publick House.
Prattster Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 We might JUST make Barnum's before the show - if traffic is with us.
