June 6 & 7, 2010 - Angel Stadium of Anaheim

[Dakotalola]

Me?? I can only buy one at presale tomorrow but I need to get one more for my mom. She wasn't able to go to the rose bowl.

Sure, but I won't know if I'm going or not until maybe March, so definitely try for one in the general sale.

 

[mtnfox]

I'm going to get a GA for this one even though I'm not 100% positive I'm going.
If I don't end up going, I'll just sell the ticket at face to someone here.

You're going.

Here's a good perspective:

Ok now somebody please PS a Claw onto this thanks

 

[Lila64]

Last time I was at a concert there, it was David Bowie in the 80s. I can't remember a thing about it though.


Serenity now

 

[Dakotalola]

You're going.

ok, Ok, !
Threats now!

Yeah, who am I kidding? I'm going

 

[Zooropa man]

I wonder if they will be getting rid of the foul pole for that night...

Oh I will, wish me luck! I tried to pull one up during the Oakland general sale (just to see if I could) and I did pull one after a 9 min queue. I hope that happens for me next Monday

I was already thinking of taking off that Friday or at least a 1/2 day to hang...

I was there! Siouxsie and the Banshees opened!

Atta girl!

 

[Lila64]

Siouxsie opened? Why do I not remember this

 

[nicv]

^Why not? hmmmm?

 

[kramwest1]

GA is going to be nuts.

Think they might expand the Red Zones a little?

 

[Lila64]

Why not what nic? Why can't I remember it? It was 25+ years ago

I just checked my old ticket stub album. It was at Anaheim Stadium, Friday 9/9/83. General Admission = $15.00 .

 

[nicv]

^heehee, I thought maybe a little , was involved.

That is so cool that you have your stub still and so readily available, impressive.

 

[Perdue]

Heres an overhead shot if it helps..

 

[Lila64]

I think all the stubs from 1983 and before are in an old photo album, including my U2 one for the War tour. In those days, they'd tear the tickets in half, so you can't see that it says U2 on it

And no, I wasn't drinking back then I'm just old and losing my mind, that's all

Cool ! I'd be coming in Friday. Saturday is Disney, right?

I went to a handful of boring concerts with my mom when I was young in the early 90s and my stubs are torn. I REALLY miss that about concerts nowadays.
I was actually happy when the tickets in HAwaii was ripped.

I've finally been able to go concerts throughout my 20's and I hate that my ticket collection looks like a a bunch of shows I didn't go to. Tearing it myself just isn't the same

 

[DRay9911]

bring them to anaheim, i'll tear them for you

Ah, different tour. Siouxsie opened at Angel Stadium on the 1987 tour. I did see Bowie in '83 also, though, at the US Festival. Some Irish band you might have heard of also played earlier in the day...

Not losing your mind. Here's to old though!

 

[kellyahern]

so long as they're not $250, those tickets in Section 236-240 look like they'll be pretty good

I wish we could specify "behind the stage" seats when we purchase on ticketmaster - I've really wanted to try those this tour.

Any tips on getting those seats tomorrow? Is everyone here going to go for GA for the first show?

eta: Maybe we can specify "right field pavillion" seats?

 

[Lila64]

Not losing your mind. Here's to old though!

I tried googling online for pics of the Bowie show, but not having any luck. Not to mention You Tube won't load anything for me I think Madness & The GoGos might have opened the show... I had tix for day 3 of the US Festival, but after the hell of metal day on day 2, we bailed.

 

[HelloHelloHola]

warning ... for baseball Sections 135 (235) , 134 (234) are sold as obstructed view

(you cannot see centerfield from those seats) ...

the stadium has been completely remodeled since that David Bowie show

half of the stadium was torn down around 97 and re-done

 

[martha]

I was thinking that GA might be huge.

It's going to be different, that's for sure. Maybe more like Toronto's?


It looks like the soundboard will cover most of the infield.

 

[lauramullen]

I think it would be like Toronto's with the baseball configuration.
