I would, but I am not sure if I can get out of the building once I am in there. I have to be inside and checked in by 400pm.

No, I have read right here the tour was a bust. :wink:

I have watched the chart every day for the last week. They have really been moving some seats the last few days, especially in the rear of the area. The upper seats above the suites sold out quickly. I will post several pictures of the crowd over the next couple days.

Yeah, I've checked out the interactive maps once or twice myself too. :D :D :D

Since the beginning, the soft markets got stronger and the strong markets are or near sellouts. The tour is going over swimmingly. I can't wait to see your pics and hear a review.

Have a blast brother.

i am EXTREMELY pissed off....for months i've known i had to work august 13th.....before kiss changed the fort wayne date around.



i get to work 3 weeks ago and there's a memo posted... BOOM "sorry, we cancelled production for the 13th"

which means i got fucked out of being able to see the boys twice this tour. never been able to see them twice on one tour, thought i might break the streak this time around. :evil:

Working on it.

The only info I have so far is the following.

When I went to the box office at 3:00 pm to pick up my tickets, I asked the lady how tickets were selling. As of 3:00pm she said it was 95 percent sold out and there was a line of people going in to buy.

The top tiers were completely full to the rafters. I saw a few empty seats in the very back corners.

Nibs, here are a few pictures for you. The top sections on both side were completely full. I noticed a handful of empty seats way in the back on the left corner.
