July 6th 2010 - Chicago Soldier Field

[KhanadaRhodes]

i've got a question. has anyone been able to buy (or at least find) seats behind the stage? ticketmaster keeps trying to give me $250 seats that look shitty tbh. i want to sit behind the stage in the 200 or 300 level. (though is the 200 level any good? can you still see the entire claw from those seats?)

I was in either 252 or 253 for Chicago 2 a few months ago and I thought the view was great.

I'm assuming that ticketmaster is trying to sell all front and side-stage tickets before moving on to behind the stage seats.

Looks like ticketmaster's best available if you select $95 is either section 302 or 243. I'll bet if you wait a few months they'll eventually work their way around to selling tickets in the 200 level behind the stage.

I was first row of 249 ($95 tickets) the first night and the view was awesome. The sound was a little crappy though; I thought it sounded much better in section 446 on the second night.

Can't have Chi-town on page 2!!

 

[tpsreports2424]

i will be going again with friends

 

[Got Philk?]

What the stirring conversation of former sox players wasn't good enough for you?

I had a great time! I just don't know if I am wanted.

 

[CloserToKnowing]

Sorry if this has been discussed... What are the chances a 2nd show in Chicago will be added at some point? Schedulewise, it seems like they could possibly add one on 7/7.

Also, what about after New York... any talk of new shows being added in 2010?

i think the email from u2.com announcing the date said it would just be a one night stand, though of course i usually take such announcements with a grain of salt. especially when said announcement is from u2.com.

Good point. However, since the 7/6 show is not yet sold out, I think the demand has been met in Chicago & surrounding areas.

I know. Me too. But other stuff came up that I have to pay, which knocks out traveling money. Damn being responsible!

I can totally relate to that Just dropped a show myself because we need the money for something else. Being responsible sucks!

Aww

 

[cleazer]

If anyone decided not to buy tickets last year, ticketmaster is now selling both $55 and $30 tickets again.

 

[CloserToKnowing]

Last September I stayed at the Travelodge downtown...not too bad and pretty close to Soldier Field. Where are all the peeps staying this time around? I need to make my reservations.

 

[CloserToKnowing]

Everyone take the winter off? lol

Kinda worried about seats

I'm from Alabama, and will be going to my first U2 concert at Chicago in July. The seats appear to be at the top level, (439 or something like that) and is in the center of that area. I'm not so worried about the view because of the screen, but am somewhat worried about the sound from there. Does Soldier Field have good "acoustics?"

Thank you for your help!

 

[U2bpbear24]

Was just surprised with section 104 seats from my boyfriend for Valentine's Day!! So excited!!!

Went to the 9/12 show but I wasn't able to afford tickets for July too but now I can goooooo! yay!!!

I sat in the 300 level in September and the sound was amazing! I'm sure it will be fine for your seats as well, the acoustics are great at Soldier Field! Have fun in Chicago
