I think the 45 bus goes straight down to Public Square to where the ticketmaster is located by me. Maybe if I get there at 8:30 or something that should be enough time before they sell out right?
-
so i am on the floor in section 4 in row ee. so i have to wonder if ee means row 5 of section 4? or ee means row 31 of section 4. i am wishful thinking that section1 starts with a and section 4 starts with aa and section 7 starts with aaa? anybody know?

You should be fine if you get there that early. I really doubt there will be a line for this show all the way out in Cleveland. But if I were you, I'd call that Ticketmaster outlet first over the weekend and make sure they can get you the tickets on Monday morning for Pittsburgh. You'd hate to go all the way there to find you can't get them there, then by the time you'd get home, the show would be sold out.

You should call the Mellon Arena box office and see if they have any details on the seating of the new arena.

That is a smart idea to call the Ticketmaster outlet first. I'm pretty sure though that you can get tickets for any concert at any Ticketmaster outlet. I've done it before but that was a few years ago, so it may changed, I don't know.

I kept throwing back section 7 row kkk, so you might be on to something there. Perhaps section 4 row ee really will be row 5. I talked to a very helpful lady at the arena the other day - they are switching things over, so she has to go look some stuff up, but she helped a lot.

Thanks...I've been panicking about getting my ticket all day today and I don't want to miss out on this. Not after I've waited SEVEN years to see Paul again. I'll be heartbroken if I can't get a ticket for this show.

I too hope my seats are okay, they're pretty far to the side. We also went to Halifax lsast year, drove there from here in Western PA, only have to drive 50 miles this time instead of something like 13 hours last year.
What section are you in? I'm off to the side too in 113. Isn't it great having Paul come to US this time?! I drove to NYC last year and on previous tours we traveled to Ohio and DC. It's so great knowing he's coming here this time!
I got seats in Section 221 just couldn't get myself to spend more since this is the 10th time I've seen Paul and there's going to be 6 of us this time. Anyway I hope going for these seats wasn't a mistake.

~ BUMP ~ This should be on front pg. I'm not happy w/ my seat but the TM kept giving me the 105 sec. each time I threw it back I got the same sec. again excpt further back, I began to wonder if I'd wait too long I wouldn't get anything!!! I know, I should be glad I'm getting to go at all, But I wasn't counting on this lousy of a seat...5 1/2 hrs. of driving to set way back, so far back I don't think I'll be able to see anything...if any of you are going....take photos so I can see what I missed, OK?!!!

There will be video screens all around, you won't miss anything. Maybe you should have just tried for the general on sale? Plenty of decent tickets get released.

I believe TM has a racket going...highest bidder gets the good seats, not fair to the many people who don't have the money!!!!

You need to use the virtual map to locate your ticket. sec 115 row W is actually a very good seat. You're right to the side of the stage. I would love to have that seat. You also have the nice jumbo tron to see with a clear view. I would be happy with this seat if I were you. It seems you will be able to see the band run out when they hit the stage.

Great website, just found my seats for Nashville, thanks for posting!

I don't think I'll be able to make it to this show. I have a high phone bill to pay which I don't have money for. I HATE verizon wireless!

When you click that link the stage will be set up right there at the first goal cage that you see. It's a great view, I don't understand the disappointment. Whether it's a sports event or a concert, it's still the same view you are looking at. You'll basically have the stage right there in front of you.

Becky001...Here's what you do.... upgrade your service to the amount of minutes that you went over on your bill. It will cost you less money that way... then you can downgrade your service again. I had to do that once the month my Mom died and I was on the phone alot.

I thought this sale was TERRIBLE. I bought tickets for Charlotte and had no problem whatsoever - I could have bought from the Amex sale in TM, or the PM.com presale. No problem. Now for this Pittsburgh sale - I had the same set-up, 2 computers ready to go. Every time I went to TM (starting at 10:00 on the dot) it said "there are no tickets available" even though I knew from the Board that people were getting tickets there. I NEVER got a ticket selection on Ticketmaster, on the VIP package either. Then I went to PM.com and tried there. I FINALLY got to the screen that shows the ticket selection, but every time I clicked on a section (and I tried MANY different sections) it redirected me to Ticketmaster. So I felt like I was in a vicious loop. Luckily, my best Paul pal (Sunbeam on this board) got us front row tickets via the VIP route, so we are way excited about it, to say the least. But I was very distressed at my experience because if she had not been available to get the tickets, I would have been totally cut out. What a mess. I hope everyone who wanted to go to the Pittsburgh concert managed to get tickets. And I hope they add another Pittsburgh show, although I don't want to go through this stress again!!!
I know...and yes, I won't go thru that again!!! I believe you got tix 'cause you bought VIP tix, If it is just a mid range price...you're just in the cold!!!

~BUMP!~ Again...where are the ones going to the Pittsburgh show. I know you are out there somewhere...speak up and let yourself be heard!!!

Wow he sold out in less then a minute. There is definitely going to be a second show.
