if you all like they could go back to seats on the floor and you can pay 20 G's to sit in the front row, then there won't be anything to bitch about.
i was on the floor 5 times on vertigo. the first time i waited on line from around 8am on, didn't get buzzed in but got a spot on the outside of the rail... had a great time and all, but left the arena badly sunburned, sore as shit and desperately just wanting to go home and sleep for days, which was tough 'cause i wasn't in my home city.
the next time i just chilled back by the soundboard, had some drinks and generally had a pretty good time. no pressure, just enjoyment.
the next three times i was inside the ellipse, with no waiting in line involved. in fact i did a full day of work all three times. some of us, ya know, have jobs. these were by far the best experiences.
it's awesome to be close and all, and i will try to work my way as close as possible at giants stadium... but yea, there's no chance in hell i'm sitting in that line all day again. the physical toll it takes on your body simply isn't worth it. i don't need boner to be able to touch my hand in order to have a good time (ha... boner touch my hand).
if you do, hey.. good on you. even with the lottery you can still get close enough for that to happen. but the lottery is infinitely better than waiting out all night like a lunatic.
one of the times i was in the ellipse i got a call on my cell, turned around and saw two friends who literally got their tickets at 6:45 for a 7:30 opener and were only 5 feet from the outer rail of the ellipse. oh the humanity... not waiting in line all day cost them 5 whole feet. wooooooooooo... the horror, the horror.
