I remember trying to come up with a plan with Dave and Shannon in Philly, moments before doors opened. None of us scanned, but if one of us had I worked it to where if either of them did, I'd have gotten in either way.

I also remember saying if I scanned that I'd tell the people that they were my long lost brothers and to please let them both in.

All I remember of San Jose is seeing Jim there with the ticket and the laptop flashing red and black and Sicy and I screaming our heads off.

Live Nation finally has 4 US shows listed... surprised they start so early, but I guess I'm just used to arena shows starting at 8pm in NYC so it seems early.

Man am I not excited to have to buy tickets through Live Nation when I never have before... I hope it links to ticketmaster.

An uncle of mine always says "don't be dilly dallying!" to one of my nieces or nephews when they are not paying attention.

Thanks!

I wish they'd put up a seating chart!

Well I bought No Doubt tickets through Live Nation on Sunday and it went pretty smoothly. They also just emailed me today to tell me that the tickets have shipped

clerks · 03-11-2009, 07:35 PM

No Doubt is back together! Saw them with U2 in LA in 2001. Gwen and Bono sang a duet...

RedRocksU2 · 03-11-2009, 07:41 PM

I saw that too, I was next to the stage.

Good times.

do you think that's when the opening act will start or just when doors open? I wonder what time they will officially line everyone up

i suspect that's doors, although at the 1 popmart show I went to, the openers (Rage) started within 15 minutes of doors.

I was with a group of 4 pretty much for Vertigo, me and April and my bf and Diemen. Neither me nor April scanned but by bf did. He then quickly traded tickets with me so that I could go in with April.

You have to have a plan ahead of time though because you cant dilly dally there where they're scanning and letting people in.

Waiting in the GA could be fun, but it was not fun to see all the people that had their spots being held by someone else show up right before the doors opened up and see your position in line get considerably farther away from the front.

And in the spirit of "dilly dally", you don't want to "lollygag" or be all "willy nilly" either.

bonocomet · 03-11-2009, 09:18 PM

I say dilly dally AND lollygag

It was strictly through Live Nation. And you have to enter your cc number in each time, but it gives you like 10 minutes. I think you just log in to the ticket portion of the site.
