Brooklyn, NY, Barclays Center, June 8th - ARCHIVE
-
I'm hoping for an opening act...any performer that has that honor is pretty talented - and I've been introduced to the Kaiser Chiefs & The Script, both very enjoyable. In fact, we have tickets to see Green Day in London, but we're really going to see the Kaiser Chiefs again! An opening act doesn't mean a shorter show for Sir Paul...just a chance to see and hear more music.

UGH, no opening act PLEASE. I like the script, so I didn't mind them at Citi Field, but I pay to see the main act and thats all. I hate almost all opening acts for ANY artist, but especially for Paul.

I love opening acts. I had the fortune of seeing Lenny Kravitz just before he exploded on the scene opening for Tom Petty in 1989. Johnny Clegg and Savuka opened for Tracy Chapman in 1990, and they were the highlight of the evening for me. I really enjoyed MGMT in Boston. I don't think it will happen or needs to happen, but it would be great for folks to see a local, young Brooklyn band open for Paul at Barclay's.

Doubt there will be an opening act, especially at the arena shows. Those ballpark shows in 2009 had them but those were the exception. Probably will just be a newly edited version of the filmstrip thing that plays for about 20 min before Paul comes on stage.

I'll be driving up - do any of the hotels in Manhattan or Brooklyn have parking?
Most (in Manhattan anyway) do have parking facilities. Mass transit is the best bet getting to Barclay's.
Just curious, based on your tag at the bottom, how did you get to meet Paul in 2010?? I want to bring a sign to Barclays asking Paul to sign my "Let It Be" tattoo (I'm in row 9, so I think that's close enough for him to see it if I write big). DO you think that might work? I know it has for others in the past...

Very cool! That's similar to what I'm planning to do. The concert is the day before my 21st birthday so I was going to have my dad hold a sign that said "sign the birthday girl" and I would hold one saying "I'm the birthday girl, sign my Beatles tattoo". Not sure if row 9 is close enough but I'm going to try anyway. Wish me luck lol

Apparently not one seat available today, for either show?? Sounds weird to me, but that is what Ticketmaster says. WHY have us wait for 10 am, then show no seats? Why not just have on the website, SOLD OUT? I do not get Ticketmaster. So glad I waited patiently for 10 am this morning.

Did you try the Will Call option (pick up tickets at box office day of show)?
-
-
I think there are tabs that lets you select US, Canada, or Other country for shipping, and then you can select Will Call. It looks like it will let you buy tix internationally. I'm not sure what you're seeing so hard to help out. I am looking at Ticketmaster, by the way.

I see what you're seeing except there's another tab that says "Other Country". I don't understand why they're not showing that to you! Can you try calling Ticketmaster from where you are? Not sure if TM has a "live chat" option or not.

OK, I DID keep trying. Site is a bit wonky. It seems to work better when you do NOT use the best available options. Goes thru more often when I picked a price and/or a section. Got so-so seats but at least I'm going!

Select "lower bowl" and you can get side view seats.
