Ticketing advice

[mfietek]

Been out of the Warehouse game for a year and have a question.

The premium ticket says 2 tickets $500 total. I am assuming this for the same night?

I am planning on purchasing premium tickets for one night of a two night stand and normal the other night. With the new priority for one night rule, can I assume the the premium ticket is more of a sure bet and it make more sense to put the priority in the one night that I am not purchasing the premium ticket?

each $500 pair is for the same night

It seems like premium seats have a fairly high decline rate. I may be wrong but that's how it always feels when people post their confirmations.

The 2 April shows sure looked to have very few Premium tickets, whereas last summer and winter tours had a lot.

To use the Citi presale do you have to have a Citi CC or would a DC also allow you to use the presale?

You can use a CITI debit card (against a CITI checking account, don't think anyone has found a CITI gift card yet)

No shit?

That's good to know. I definitely don't mind setting up a checking account just to get tickets, but I didn't want to take out another credit card.

I already had a credit card, opened a checking account online last year before the Nashville Mumford shows and summer DMB shows and then wired money to the CITI account; used both cards (on separate LN/TM accounts) for the presales. I keep $2,500 there to avoid the monthly fee.

Thanks man that's awesome. I'm getting married in May and we will be getting a joint account to use for most expenses. We will use Citi now so I can use presale in the future.

I plan on attending Indy, Alpine, orange beach and the gorge. As you know the ticketing opens at the same time and dropping over 1,000 in one setting is not ideal. I'm looking for some advice on which ones may sell out and I should purchase when the request period opens?

Definitely request Alpine. And I'd say Orange Beach as well its a small venue and on the beach so it could be popular. You should be able to get lawn seats to the gorge fairly easily I'd say or find tickets on the boards. Indy I have no idea.

Need more info. Are you fine with lawn? If so, take your time...the longer the cheaper even. You want pit or reserves? You need to decide which one's to try for up front; pit/reserves for these shows probably sell out in a similar period of time...orange beach is an unknown but may last longer. Alpine reserves probably go first.

Gorge I'm definitely fine with lawn. Alpine I heard the lawn is steep and miserable. I'm one of the odd ones that cannot stand the pit, so I'm thinking reserve for Alpine and Indy.

Then definitely concentrate on Alpine and Indy first. Buy Gorge lawn at the shows for $10-$20 each, maybe folks even giving them away.

And I agree on Gorge Lawn...I'm not a lawn person but the Gorge is one worth doing.

Been to Alpine for 20 shows. Avoid Lawn at all cost! unless you like D-bags and puke. Also, it is a huge venue and very steep.

I would request both Premium and regular for the same night. Didn't do that last year for Dallas thinking Premium was a sure thing and ended up having to buy tickets off of Stub Hub.

I have what may be a stupid question. During 2 night stands, do we know which night is random seating and which night is based on seniority for the Warehouse?

I used the Citibank presale to buy tickets for Cville N1 this past december and it looked like most of the seats that were being sold were in the way upper levels. Anybody know if this is going to be true for most venues selling seats through the presale for summer? It would be great to use that and get somewhat decent seats in the mid to lower levels.

I've never had a problem with lawn at Alpine, in fact it's alway been an amazing experience! With that said, we've always been toward the front of it sort of near the left side.
