That's good. More tickets available. Always good to better odds, especially at the casino.

    Definitely a good one. I would stay there if I had the money. 50 minute drive for me, not too bad. Just have to get a DD for my wife and I.

    I'm thinking about putting in for the premium $250 ticket Reserved 1. For this show I really think it'd be worth it...

    I don't think it'd be worth it. The arena is only 10,000 capacity, so any seat is a great seat. It's gonna be like seeing them back in the day, man.

    Do it dude. There's hotels within about a 15 minute drive that are reasonable.

    Steve
    Especially for a show of this size. The demand will be through the roof. If I had to guess 25% of the tickets will be reserved for high rollers and "friends".

    I've seen a bunch of shows there and while I like the venue they are TERRIBLE with tickets. I saw Billy Joel there a few years ago and everyone I talked to got tickets from someone who got them as a comp from the casino.

    I have a feeling they will try to offer as much as possible to Warehouse members because its going to be Warehouse or bust IMO.

    Also, it is going to be a total $hit show for those with GA pit. Where do you line up in a casino?

    The Warehouse Posted an $85 Face Plus Fees while ticketmaster says $80 Face Plut Fees. It'll probably amount to the same because ticketmaster's fees are far higher.

    This arena is awesome. Been to a bunch of shows there and always had a blast. Hopefully my Dad can swing tickets through his "connections". As someone upthread said, they hold the best seats for their "best customers".

    Why do we always get shitty openers in CT? The Lumineers are opening for the second half of the tour and we get old washed up Jimmy Cliff.

    Wife and I love this place. Stayed at the hotel for my birthday back in July. It was worth the extra money vs. staying off site.

    Will be too pricey to stay there on a Saturday, though, so we'll likely drive home afterwards. Need to save money somewhere if we are gonna try and do 4 shows.

    Definitely the show I want to see most

    Well I am about a 45 min drive from Yankee Stadium in Fairfield and am about 1:15-1:30 depending on traffic and speed I drive from Mohegan. Thats just a rough estimate but you are looking at 2+ hours.
