I seem to remember the onstage VIP's were close to $1500 for last time. Am guessing will be a bit more this time. Have seen ticket prices ranging from $45 to up to $250. Prices vary a bit by location and not all locations have prices listed yet. Definitely will be more expensive this time around. Will need to cover the cost of the new production of this tour. If they have spent some big $$ redoing the show, not sure they would shelve the production after 25 tour dates, am thinking they will be adding some more shows. Perhaps So. America will get some dates. They keep asking. IMO, I think this could be their last tour and I am only saying that because of Roger and Brian's ages. 25 dates is a good number for a tour, it seems to be a number they like for N America. If anything gets added, I would say an additional Hollywood Bowl date & I am only saying that because of the gap between HB and San jose. Or maybe 2 few more SE US cities at the end. But i even doubt that. S America? i seriously doubt that! Very very very expensive to go there and they've already done RIR, which would be the big payday down there. One more thing, as Talon said, bet the show will not be that much different. they will still have the Q, and the set list will vary maybe 2-3 songs. Dr May likes to be "enthusiastic" to the press, but in 5 years, we have not seen many big changes. I'm thinking like you're thinking. Should we decide to make the Hollywood Bowl...I'd love to add another show there. Fingers crossed the first one sells out. I also think that Houston will be the last show. Don't understand why not Atlanta or Miami.....but for some reason and same thing last tour...those markets must not work for Live Nation. I'm just thankful we got Nashville.

Yes, the code does look strange. Usually they have a single password/code that does not have number and letter combinations. Maybe they are trying to discourage people from trying to guess the code since they have been somewhat obvious in the past. Also, the VIP for the TOH tour was $495. Included photo op (not meet & greet - had about 5 to 7 seconds with Adam for picture) early entrance since many shows were floor standing. It does seem like most of the floor seating is for VIP. Am guessing some of the less expensive for the "level 2" could be non-floor seats or to far back to see. I am not a tall person so floor seating or standing only are not my favorites unless within first 10 rows or so. I know entitled fan. Looking forward to all the great performances and hope for periscopes, live streams, and amazing video like last time. It looks like an individual passcode. The Chicago Fan Club does this instead of a general presale code. Chicago also limits ticket purchases per your individual passcode; it's how they can enforce any presale limits they set. Hi Sandy!! Do you think just using the link will get us into TM as a passcode....or will we need to write that crazy number down and enter it in a box on the TM site? I really hate not knowing all the prices, locations of various levels of VIPs, etc. prior to TM going live. I see some venues are listing VIP packages as a separate feature from the Fan Presales for Tuesday. Was just wondering the quickest way to maneuver the TM site.

Do we book our presale tickets through TicketMaster? I want to be sure I'm ready. Also, when it says local time does that mean the time in the arena city? Hope so, I can leave work early and rush home to book. I'm as nervous as a cat on a hot tin roof. LOL

For those planning to go to the Hollywood Bowl, sign up on this mailing list: www.billsilvaentertainment.com/concerts/I get emails from them pretty regularly regarding events at the Bowl and sometimes they have information regarding the release of additional seats, etc at later dates. They usually also provide their own presale codes (in addition to the ones from the fan clubs). It's worth noting if nothing else. Also, I'm sure that pattihum and others in LA can also advise, but parking at the Bowl is HORRENDOUS. It's stacked parking so the best option is to take public transportation or park in a lot nearby and walk up. Just my two cents! I am so excited about this one! The Bowl is my favorite venue in LA by far!! Just an amazing atmosphere.

Interesting observation! Carlita ♎ @misswoessie So what's happening here @adamlambert Are you setting a new trend or did you run out of time removing/applying nailpolish? 😋😋😋😘 Ha, ha! I do that all time. Just get busy and put off doing the other hand! It is harder to do the right hand, so i always do the left hand first! LOL! He also missed his left thumb! I was thinking how he was playing with his hands already during the interview. Maybe he noticed then? twitter.com/MissWoessie/status/825010109877088256

Hello and happy Friday!
That is very rare to see Adam at the pres conference with half painted or half unpainted finger nails.

Well, I've renewed my fan club membership and see the code. DH said he wasn't ready to see Queen "in this lifetime, so I'm planning to go (Seattle) with son and DIL, who are enthusiastic about it. Not having done this before, what is the usual pre sale procedure? Do you click on the code and then on the venue you want and you're then taken to the correct place to buy the tickets? I don't want to experiment and somehow get locked out before the sale even happens. And I'm confused about Livenation vs. Ticketmaster. I have a Ticketmaster account already.
I'm not going for VIP... I'll probably catch enough flak for going at all. Plus I prefer being in the stands where I think there is a better chance of actually being able to see everything. I've never been to Key Arena, so don't know what it's like.

I know a really good greek place nearby! Yes, please! Looking at Chicago, St. Paul, Detroit, Cleveland and of course Nashville - booking rooms now - Especially concerned about Chicago - couldn't get close to the venue last time. And of course, ticket purchase is a challenge as I have 10AM meetings on 1/31 that I cannot get out of...Yikes!
