Craig Benfer Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I don't know about anyone else, but I wasn't able to get the Balcony Seats. Was anyone succesful? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannoman Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Likewise - tried 15 times in the first 10 minutes - nada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregkevinw Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 same here.......IMO there were no balcony seats available after monday...one of us would've gotten lucky.it's not wether i sit our stand (hell, i'll be standing anyway) but i wanted a chance to meet the guys....maybe something can be worked out for those of us that wanted to spend the extra money, but were locked out?i really wanted to meet the band....

JuliaAllByMyself Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I was also there immediately, but there was no balcony seating left. I am really disappointed. This week has been so stressful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlene Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 It's the same for me...i could care less if I have to stand, in fact, I'd prefer it honestly, but it's a shame that so many of the wonderful fans here won't get to share in the "special package" that was put together. I don't begrudge the people who have "Meet and greet" tickets, and hope they have a terrific time....I'm just kinda feeling sorry for myself !!

mannoman Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 GA tix still being offered - at least I am in the bulding - but like the rest of the Board wanted to meet the guys just to thank them for the lasting musical memories they have provided us all.BTW - I tried a total of 30 times in 20 mins. I guess it's time for me to pack it in, eh?Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Benfer Posted October 9, 2004 Author Share Posted October 9, 2004 I would have definitely prefered the seats, but it's not that big of a deal for me. It's my buddy I'm concerned about. He has a bad back because of a car accident a few years back. And I know that because of the expected older age of the crowd that their are bound to be a lot physical ailments that would have made seating desirable. Oh well....time to stop complaining. I would have hung upside down by my ankles to see the Raspberries perform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannoman Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I didn't notice this before on the HoB website: Pass the Line: Ticket holders who dine at the House of Blues Restaurant on the day of the show will be allowed to "pass the line" for the concert. Works for me.Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mymooladi Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 None here either. June Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggiesjc Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I agree, it's not the sitting or the standing, rather it's not getting to meet the band that's so painful. This was my third attempt at M&G tickets, and another major disappointment. I would have happily paid double the M&G price to be able to shake Eric's hand.

Raspbernie Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Ted,Now *THAT* is tremendous advice! Do they take reservations for dinner?Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Argee Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 and do they have any sort of dress code for the dining room? (coat/tie?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadfingerBarb Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Pardon my ignorance, but what does "pass the line" mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raspbernie Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I think it means that you get in before everyone else, which means if you have general admission tickets you could get as close to the stage as you'd like :-)Bernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadfingerBarb Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I see! Well, I guess we'll all be eating at the HoB that day. Most likely, there will be a line to pass the line! FYI, there are no balcony tickets available for Les Paul the next night at HoB either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlene Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I'm all for that....maybe we should get a list going of people who would like to make dinner reservations (if that's possible)It would be fun, and like Bernie says, maybe we can get a little closer to the action. Count me in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannoman Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Argee,I have never been in a HOB that had a dress code. The only dress code will be to dress for the Cleveland cold. I plan to wear jeans and a sweater to be comfortable. The only caviat is, stage lights plus 1200 people might warm up the room considerably but I'd rather be hot than cold. It's up to you.Ted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seattlesteve Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 No new news here. Couldn't get the reserved tickets either. I've screwed up twice on this. First even though I was already a member I didn't realize that the HOB presale was as early as it was, then this morning I'm assumming that I need to get on Ticketmaster right at 9:00 to try, so hear I sit at 8:00 and get all the bad news from the east coast who tried an hour ago.Erics note on the meet and greet softens the blow.Seattle Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliaAllByMyself Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Seattle Steve ~ The time difference is a scary thing isn't it! I'm glad you still managed to get a ticket.Ted ~ If you go ahead with a block booking, if poss, please add two reservations for me!! (Thanks!)
