Nikon @ Jones Beach in New York http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22644982 en Tue, 08 Dec 2009 22:32:41 EDT Tue, 08 Dec 2009 22:32:41 EDT Re: Nikon @ Jones Beach http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22717582 NYR 56 : In case anyone was curious, I went to the Nickelback show last night, which was amazing, and got the tickets on the spot. We got two at Section 1 Row H for $75.50 each. They were pretty good seats but nothing to write home about and certainly not at the front like I got with OAR. I think I'll look to see what is being sold in advanced for Lil' Wayne. I'm not really sure how it works but I guess OAR was just a much less popular band. The first picture (excuse the quality) is the only one I have not zoomed in but it gives you an idea of what section 1 is like.

just curious..... anybody have any similar experiences at pnc arts center?
That's usually where I nailed my front row tix for Aerosmith. If anything, it's easier because stage setups vary and they have to hold back tix for front row seating because they dont know if its going to be stage or seat in a certain spot.

My friend really wants to make sure we see Lil' Wayne so I'm thinking we'll get tickets to that regularly and risk it for Nickelback trying to get close up seats. I'll let you all know how that goes, the Nickelback concert is next week.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22660432 Mon, 06 Jul 2009 10:48:50 EDT Re: Nikon @ Jones Beach http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22648877 The Dv8or :

All of the seats at Jones Beach are good ones imho. Try to get tix online when they are released.
I disagree. It doesnt take much to feel youre too far away, and the side views suck. Never liked going to shows there.

Basically, you got lucky and showed up at just the right time.. I wouldnt count on that happening too often.

Nickelback could definitely sell out.. Not so sure about Wayne, but maybe.

If they're not too far from face value, it's doubtful. If the prices are super high, then the demand is there because of a potential sellout. Secondary markets are a great barometer.

I plan to go see Lil' Wayne and also Nickelback this summer and was wondering if we just got lucky since OAR isn't the big of a band or if we should try that again to get good seats. Are these concerts likely to sellout? If that's the case I would just buy the tickets in advance. Thanks for any input.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22644982 Thu, 02 Jul 2009 12:55:46 EDT
