It is a digital service that allows members to get deals from local restaurants, retailers, entertainment, etc. The have millions of members so sometimes they are given hot things to let people know that a concert is happening. I checked the "rules" at the WFC, Philly - you don't know what seat you have until you get to the venue with your ID and have the ticket issued- the seats are assigned in order of reservations. I think it is great, especially for students who can't afford the $100+ tickets or folks who are not invested but would like to "check it out"... I remember when I was a poor graduate student at CWRU in Cleveland, OH. There were Cleveland Symphony tickets available to the music students the week of the symphony. If all the music student allotment was not sold out by Friday, any of the other students could buy the tickets. They were in the back of the balcony, but I got to go to a few symphonies this way, which I could have never afforded otherwise! ETA - These student tickets cost $0.50! That's right, 50 cents! But then that was back in the late 70's. |

IKR!!! Though as a Canadian I can substitute June for July. And as a long time Queen fan it's almost more excitement than I can handle! |

Since Vegas has sold out or almost sold out......Q3, what are the odds that they might add a third night there? They have two days off afterwards before the Tx show. I wouldn't think it would be that profitable, because of only 4,000 seats.....but was just wondering before I make my plane reservations back on July 7th. I know it's over 3 months away, but was curious IF you think there might be a possibility. The venue is open but it seems like an odd and unlikely addition to me. For starters, I do not think Adam would want to do 3 concerts in a row. That is the kind of scheduling that turned out to ruin many rock vocalists' voices. If he did do it, not sure he would do that in Las Vegas when he is headed to New York MSG which is the big media show. I also think that Brian and Roger may not want to do 3 shows in a row. They certainly do not need the money. ** What I think is possible is a show on 7/20 - 7/22. Phillips Arena (Atlanta) is available in July, American Airlines Arena (Miami) is open on 7/20 and 7/22. I just an a feeling they will end in Merriweather. Two caveats -- on this theory. 1. Adam clearly has something booked for after this tour, or at least that is what Shoshanna seemed to hint at. So he may have a hard stop. 2. They could end in Merriweather but sort of end with a big TV appearance. One possible is the MTV VMA's August 24, 2014. |

Adam Lambert ✔ @adamlambertToronto! Great tickets have just been added for the July 13 show! bit.ly/1fx8p2hnot sure what was added - if you look at the avail. seat. map - only side upper level sections are available. IS that what they added? oh..may be Platinum level? - you can't see those.. I think they added another side section almost in line with the front of the stage, maybe they will move the stage back? I pulled 117, just for curiosity.
Anything on the Plaza level (100 level in most arenas) is considered a great seat. ETA: I just picked up 4 great seats for a concert that goes on public sale tomorrow with the Fan Club Presale code. It might be worth a shot is you are still looking for tickets. ETA 2: I just spoke to MSG box office and for good seats they told me to go a reseller or buy Platinum Seats which are not great and are $625-$750. Best they could give me -- even with the presale code was 226! AND I AM LOOKING FOR A SINGLE SEAT!! |

But I live and work in Akron, and one of the best things is that the Cleveland Symphony makes their summer home just north of Akron (about 20 miles south of Cleveland) in the Cuyahoga National Park at Blossom -- one of the best outdoor venues in the US. The concerts are quite affordable, there is wine and the stars, plus one of the world's best symphonies. I am missing a couple concerts this summer because I have other music obligations!   |
