I wanna make sure I'm damn ready for this tour so I can get the best possible seats at both concerts (Boston & Montreal) that I intend to go to. So I have a couple of questions:
1. How long after the release of an album does it usually take to announce the first leg of a tour?
2. How long (on average) does it take for tickets to go on sale once the tour is announced for any given venue?
3. How long should I plan to go to a city (I live about 13 hours away from both cities by car) to line up for tickets (I'd like to avoid Ticketmaster, all I've heard is terrible stuff about them)?
4. How long before tickets officially go on sale should I line up so to assure I get GA/front row tickets?
5. How long should I plan to be in any given city for the concert (ie how many days)?
6. What is the best way to travel to a city approximately 15 hours away for a concert?
7. How early should I be on concert day to line up?
8. What's the best way to meet the band on concert day?
9. What should I bring for lines, etc.?
10. If I'm a few people back in line and I go to order, and the people ahead of me take longer than they should, will all the speedy little bastards using Ticketmaster get all the best seats and I'd be stuck halfway back, even though I'm like 3rd or 4th in line?
11. Line up or Ticketmaster?
12. Should I stay at a hotel or somewhere else? Is it feasible to do this?
13. Any other secrets or tricks I should know before going?
14. Lastly, any stories/comments?
Thanks guys! You're the greatest!
