We usually stay up the road a bit from that place (less than a mile.) I'd definitely be interested in the shuttle if that price is for round trip. In the past, we've gotten a ride to the show from friends that go on the trip with us but don't go to the shows, and get a car service back to the resort which is $60 (plus my drunk tip). This year we won't have any non-show friends so we were looking at $60 each way. $75 rt sounds better.

    Is this just for those that stay there, or can others pre-arrange to shuttle over with the group? When I say others, I mean me..(and my sister too).

I normally like to stay close and walk or have a short Uber/cab ride... but I can't tell my dad that I'm coming to FL and not stay with him.. I'm a good daughter..

    Yeah that definitely makes sense. Used to do the same for the TX shows.

    So my wife and me may be hitting up the WPB shows depending on if she can get off. However we won't know until June if she can get off. Will this be a hard show to get reserved to?

    So would section 8 or 4 be good to go on and get just to be sure I'm in the venue?

    Keep check closer to time and sell if I find better?

    Don't pay marked up prices on Stubhub yet, and avoid sections 4 and 8, they're way to the outside, and where the Warehouse put all the senior members.

    Unless you want to buy me 8-R pair, and in that case they're great

    These are a little below face. I know they're way off on the side which I hate but was thinking maybe I'd at least have a seat. May think on it. Just wish something closer to the center would come up soon on the boards.

    We'll be up the road about a mile. Will figure out how to get to your hotel later. Worst comes to worst we just walk it.

    We're flying into Fort Lauderdale. I'm too old for a road trip of that size.


    We lucked out and were able to book the flight there with points on Southwest and the flight home with points on Jet Blue.

    We drove to Tampa for our honeymoon and it wasn't tooooooo awful. We're staying a week at my in laws. They live in Port St. Lucie.

    We're broke at the moment and gas will end up being cheaper I think.

    Got section 6 row CC N1 for face today. Far back I know but at least we're center. I'll keep my eyes open for better seats and N2. Still can't believe we're doing these shows!

    May keep looking for n1 but I'm very happy! Let's get this tour going!
    Did 7 EE long time ago and worked out great. Perfect sound from there. This is the last row so my height challenged wife could stand on seat with no one behind. However bring rain gear. You can get a wet A$$ in these seats. There is no cover from W-EE in 6 and 5 & 7 varies! See Below.

    Hopefully I'll upgrade those CC seats. I just grabbed them to have center and tickets to the show. Should be able to unload these pretty easy if need be.
