KingMacca:
QUESTION-- My ticket says "rear-obstructed-limited view". I am in the 100s, the last section before the roped off ones. Does this mean i won't be seeing paul and I'll be behind his screens, or that I'm just going to be looking at his back. I hope it's the latter because he'll be facing me on the piano.
I really don't believe any venue would release seats that are "totally obstructing your view" of the performer. Based on the seating diagram for the Albany show, sect 109 does look to be a view from behind. You are right about the view you'll have when he's playing the piano however!

I just posted 4 AmEx Preferred tickets for sale (face value, fans only) in Sec. 121 Row N Seats 5-8, PM me if interested. I bought them, not knowing my husband bought tickets, too!
-
The seats are in Section 119 Row P Details in the ticket thread.

Can you believe we're the ones who get to welcome him back? OMYGOD!!!! Paul is gonna hear the LOUDEST CHEER I've ever yelled in my entire life!!

Going to be interesting to see what the rumored "surprises" will be (if any) for the US dates. We'll find out first.

Just a heads up... Tommy James was the entertainer for 2012. Last year, we had Johnny Rivers. This year, Felix Cavaliere of The Rascals is scheduled to be the headliner for the 2014 July 4th Celebration. I'm afraid the information you found was outdated. And, for those wondering, my source is myself as I'm a resident of Albany. If you are going to be around for July 4th, the fireworks are amazing and the plaza is beautiful! Almost forgot the best part... it's FREE!

Albany residents, what do you recommend for a good place to eat in the downtown area before the show? Not necessarily looking for anything fancy, just a couple of good options before heading to see Sir Paul.

I'm planning on Limo Watch. Anyone know where performers can enter the Times Union Center? Also, what time does Paul generally enter the venue? Thanks

Hi, there's no real set time. I'd say sometime between 3:00 and 5:00 p.m. would be a good guess. It all depends on if he's flying in to town that day or not.

Mailman brought the tickets today!!!! on another note, saw Ringo in Providence last night...great show!

There is a great Italian place located on Madison Avenue, down the street and within walking distance of the TU Center, called Lombardo's. Price range is in the middle and it's best to make reservations. If you decide to go fancy there's a restaurant called Jack's Oyster House, closer to the venue, but much more expensive and business casual to dress attire. You would definitely need reservations. Are you staying in a hotel nearby? If so, let me know which one and I can give you an idea of places near where you're staying.
-
Any suggestions on hotels? Hilton or Hampton Inn near the TU Center?
