If this in-the-round thing is true, my seats just got pretty damn good.

artdirector said:I'm telling you guys that U2.com will be asking you if you would like GA tickets to any of the added shows. Now keep in mind only those who still have the access code would receive this e-mail. Those who have tickets will have to settle for nose bleeds or whatever you purchased. Thats what I think they will do.
I agree - I don't think U2.com "knows" which codes have been used and which haven't. Ticketmaster is in charge of that - U2.com would have to get the database from Ticketmaster. Will they? Or just put all U2.com members in the running for t?he extra tickets? Could go either way.KentK said:
Sounds reasonable, but how will u2.com know which codes got used up on Ticketmaster this week? I think it more likely that all u2.com members will get an email, and then those who "saved" their codes can still use them.
Hope they don't end up making things worse in an attempt to make them better...

Could be. But I'm not convinced the codes "match up" with users on U2.com. U2.com tells TM how many codes they need, TM generates the codes and gives them to U2.com, U2.com sends them out randomly and that's that. TM can now tell U2.com which codes have not been used, but I'm not sure if that can be matched up with U2.com user names.MrBrau1 said:
U2 had to provide TM w/ a database of the codes for the presale. It's not insane to think TM could provide U2.com with the another DB of used codes.

"360 degree concert" is how they classified it as, they didn't have a seating chart to represent it though...
interesting isn't it?
U2SJ said:Wow that is bizarre LilJennie!!! And look how SlipKnot is end stage and Jimmy Buffett they classify as "End Stage 360 degree"
which would mean that U2s is not end stage. Wow this will be great for some people, but really piss some other people off!!
cmb737 said:Too much speculation, not enough fact. Why can't more information be made available? It always has in the past.
What is happening this time around?
fmattyh said:360 degree concert means that no seats are blocked off for a video wall or anything - they go around the stadium 360 degrees:

Compare the 360 degree set up with th e 270 and 180.
