Section Price Center Floor $255.00 Side Floor $154.50 Club Level $125.00 Field Level/Loge Outfield $95.00 Loge Infield/Terrace $59.50 Terrace Rear/Sides $39.50 *Per ticket fees not included in pricing above Awful seating map. How are we supposed to tell what's what? Where is "terrace rear/sides"? I know terrace is the upper deck in general. I might try for some cheapies for this if my friend wants to go--haven't seen Paul since October of '05...

I think the roof would be closed it there was significant rain. The only problem would be the lack of air conditioning.

That place is pretty well climate-controlled, isn't it? I was just there for a preseason game against the White Sox two weeks ago--of course, their usual concern is keeping it warm enough, but I'd imagine it works just fine going the other way.

#9 Dreamer, see this link for a description of seating levels: http://milwaukee.brewers.mlb.com/mil/ticketing/seating_pricing.jsp If it still is unclear, ask and I will be glad to try to help.

I've never been to game in hot weather when the roof was closed but I am pretty sure there is no air conditioning except in the club area and in suites.

Any idea on tailgating for this show? Some of my friends think they'll have it all day.
press release and Miller Park website both say parking lots will open at 5 pm.
Yep, looks like 5PM. However, I can suggest pre-tailgating at Kelly's Bleachers on Bluemound Rd. If you really love to die for Italian there is Barbiere's on 59th and Bluemound. Just bring your cholesterol meds if you have the garlic bread. It's a small place so get there early if you can. It's a much better option than the requisite fast food joints lining Miller Parkway (S 43rd St.) south of National Ave.

Cool, thanks. I want to be close to the Stadium as possible as I'll be meeting friends, etc. Are any of these places right by the Stadium? Where can I park in Milwaukee near the stadium at around 11am the day of the show?

It sounds like the best bet is just west of the Veterans Center (56th St. off National Ave.), then hike in on Washington and Mitchell. I seem to recall doing this years ago (County Stadium days) and there is now a Hank Aaron State Trail which intersects the area and looks like it might link up with access points.

There is parking on National Ave and the side streets to the south across from the VA and also on Bluemound Rd and it's side streets. However, I think you will find that there is a 2 hour time limit on all streets. DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT PARKING IN THE VA LOTS! You will get towed! Kelly's Bleachers on Bluemound is about a 15 minute walk. It sounds like the best bet is just west of the Veterans Center (56th St. off National Ave.), then hike in on Washington and Mitchell.

Sorry, but am I the only one a little scared of the "creature" in this picture? I see two eyes, a strange smile.... it's like a demon, or something from "Transformers"!

Can I just pay and park at the Stadium in the morning? I'd like to park right at the stadium and be a part of the tailgating. I'd also like to only pay one time.

Unfortunately, no. Not if the gates don't open until 5PM.

It is a Transformer...You should see it when the roof is closing!

Me and my mom are going to be able to make it to this show too! Milwaukee is about an 8 hour drive from Omaha so we will be there to rock out on the 16th. So for this tour we are going to see Paul in Memphis, Washington DC, and Milwaukee! Sooooo excited. Good luck to everyone getting tickets tomorrow, hopefully it goes smoother than last week trying to buy for Washington and Memphis.

That's awesome! My mom took me to my first McCartney concert. Sadly she is no longer with us, but I'm still going to Paul. I saw you went to the Wrigley Field shows. You don't happen to have a John Lennon autograph tattoo do you?

Not John. I have a George Harrison autograph tattoo across my right shoulder, Paul is on my hip, and John's self-portrait on my wrist. I've been to every Paul concert with my mom. We've put thousands of miles on the car, spent thousands on tickets, hotels, and gas money, and had the time of our lives doing it!

I think I met you and your mom at a bar across the street from Wrigley Field before the show. Some pretty girl with Beatle tattoos told me how you could feel the fireworks during Live and Let Die if you had close enough seats. I remembered that after St. Louis when I lucked out with 8th row. I could still feel them after Hey Jude!

That was me! Glad my advice was helpful. I was lucky enough to end up in the front row in Salt Lake City and I was so unprepared for how intense the heat was during Live and Let Die! That second night at Wrigley I had 20th row seats and it was still hot. It looks like you're catching a lot of shows this year...how many are you hoping to do?

My friend and I were dead center field right in front of the mixing board night two. Not sure what row it was. He would have been there the first night, but missed his bus from Madison. When Paul sang 'made the bus in seconds flat' we had a good laugh. My other buddy has never seen Paul and long story short, want to see every show. Not sure how many we'll actually get to, but so far: Tulsa #1 Tulsa #2 Bonnaroo Indianapolis Milwaukee We got a pair of Gold tickets in the 6th row center for night #1 in Tulsa, my birthday and his first McCartney show. Saw you were in St Louie, aka the best concert ever!
