Congratulations! But the Chicago show is in September : ) What kind of tickets did you buy? I've been on Ticketmaster for 15 minutes trying over and over again, both at the Fan Club Presale level (using the password) and also at the Hot Seat Package level, and it tells me every time that no seats can be found. Ah!

That was strange! I first tried to do the general pre-sale and nothing came up. Then I tried the hot ticket password and I didn't want to spend $185/ticket to be that far back just to get some memorabilia. I then tried the general pre-sale again and it put me in the 6th row on the floor for $175/ticket. I would have loved to get the VIP package, but I was amazed to get tickets this close without paying the VIP prices!

Wooooo Hooooooo! Got the Front Row Package for my 50th b-day gift to me! Row 1, Seat 9! My dream come true. *Beaker is dancing in joy* - Furthermore - I just checked and all seems to be working at all price levels. Keep trying!

Got 3rd Row Section 2 Hot Sound VIp Package as a 30th anniversary gift! Love! Love! Love! Chicago here we come!

Section 1 Row 2 Seat 2 Second row!! WAAAAAAY to the left, admittedly, but as long as I can still see, I'm a happy camper!

Yep, things finally began working. Section 2, row 14 (looks like I'll be near you, dav264). And happy early birthday, Beaker - you always buy the perfect gifts : )

Plus, I'll be going alone so if for whatever reason there's a giant speaker in my face, I could theoretically ask if there are any open spots. When I saw "The Wall" at the UC by myself, they were able to move me up like 15 rows to pack the front. Ended up like 15-20 back.

I meant September. So excited, I typed the wrong month. Sorry. Both my wife and I were on Ticketmaster to see which one got the best tickets. She won! Can't wait, it should be a great show.

Hey, Beaker, I'm in the front row, too. Just down from you in #14. I'll be there on my own, so I'm hoping to help you toast your 50th. I'll be 49!

Congratulations to those who got front row seats! I was all setup logged onto my ticket master account at 10:00 (CDT) this morning with high speed internet, but I could only get section 3 3rd row seats. Basically it was the luck of the draw as all front row and hot sound fan packages sold out once tickets went on sale. I’m still very excited that I have tickets for this event and I will be that close!
Beaker 30 May 2012 at 6:09am Posts: 102 (0 today) Status: offline
Cool Bird, it will be awesome! Red Rain: third row is pretty great. I was 4th row last year and it was amazing. Is it September yet??????
Red_Rain1 31 May 2012 at 6:06am Posts: 30 (0 today) Status: offline
Beaker you went to the New Blood concert? That was a GREAT show that exceeded my expectations. I was back in section 107 last year, so it will be great to be with REAL PG fans up front this time
Beaker 1 June 2012 at 5:09pm Posts: 102 (0 today) Status: offline
It appears that the set aside presale tickets for the fan club are sold out for Chicago. Nothing comes as available at all now on the website. I guess that's a good thing (unless you didn't get your ticket yet that is).

The fan club presales ended last night...
Red_Rain1 2 June 2012 at 6:13am Posts: 30 (0 today) Status: offline
Indeed fan club tickets are now sold out. I Thank PG for the opportunity to see the show from the third row without paying "scalper" / "reseller" prices of $500.00 plus. For those PG fans that took a pass at the New Blood tour this might sound strange but I'm kind of bummed the New blood Orchestra will not be at this show. Once again Peter brings a new dimension to his music that exceeds expectations.

I'm really impressed with some of the seats you guys scored! I have a decent seat as well, and I am so excited for my first live PG concert! I'm coming from out of town- any recs on a decent hotel? I'm rewatching Secret World Live in anticipation. I absolutely cannot wait until September!
Beaker 4 June 2012 at 4:15pm Posts: 102 (0 today) Status: offline
Gen Admission just went on sale and it seems that floor seats are still available, Sect 4, for $106. I'm driving in QuiteWitty so no hotel advice from me.

7th row center with soundcheck.. I live in Chicago... a ton of things to do and places to stay... as to where to stay, its just a matter of what you want to spend and where in the city you want to stay???? A Gabriel Fan that I met in California New Blood tour will be staying with me..going to be a great show...can't wait
Zenrider 6 June 2012 at 4:33am Posts: 3545 (0 today) Status: offline
Hardest part of the Chicago show will be going to work the next day. Just a little behind you rael9 in the 9th row. See you all at the sound check where there are no assigned seats.
