Kind of the way when you get down to requesting 1 it's easier to get closer. Not sure what to do.
That is a good question - does anyone know how the lottery for seats ACTUALLY works? That is, do they draw a name out of a hat for reserved seats, see that the person requested 2, and then try to match them up with 2 seats?

If that is the case, I would think that requesting 4 seats would narrow your chances of getting drawn in the lotto, but not necessarily hinder where your seats would be located

Does that make any sense, or am I spewing verbal diarrhea?

    I guess as long as I was in the lower bowl somewhere I'd be ok, there's not really a bad seat in that place. I have to decide whether or not I want to screw my cousin so I can just request 2 seats for my girlfriend and I.

    This is really random, but is that you in the green suit in your avatar? If so, do you go to Gopher Men's Basketball games?

    Hello to all the Twin Cities ants!!

    I snuck into the X for this show and it was awesome!! It's nice to see that they've finally dumped the Target Center.

    This is true. I had first level seats about half way up the section, opposite the stage for the Police a few summers ago. And they were still sweet seats.

    Plus it can't be said enough, any seat there is better then the Target Center

    So true - still can't decide if I should try for this show, Alpine tickets were like $350 (ouch)

    When I went to request tickets for the Xcel show I noticed there were only two options, a GA option and a "bowl" option. WIll the whole floor have no chairs? Also, does it matter how soon I request tickets, will they result in better tickets the sooner that I request them? Thanks!

    No chairs on the floor. Doesn't matter when you submit your request for tickets.

    Floor will have no chairs and when you request will have no bearing on what seats you may be selected for, it just matters that you get it in.

    Thanks

    It's pretty pathetic, really. I've been a fan since UTTAD, but everytime a concert came near where I was living at the time I either didnt have the time or the money. This time since it's only 20 minutes away I said F it, i dont care if I dont have the money.

    5 pages later I'll just express my opinion of GA floor is lame.. I've delt with the GA and got real close the past 2 years at different fests. I'll just stick to the reserved bowl where the seat is waiting for me on beer breaks. Lets hope this show sticks to the final of the tour. Never experienced that. Be an awesome feeling knowing they could play anything from the tour. Anyways, Cheers to the weekend!
