I am a newbie to this forum, but I appreciate the help received before the tickets went on sale. We are in Section C Row 22 - four tickets. After my wife and I went to see Paul at Comerica for the first time in Detroit last summer, I was bummed we did not take our college age kids, now 23 and 21. It was such a lifetime memory and special event. Well, I feel very grateful to have a second chance, and they are road tripping with us for this show! Should be a great family experience!

I've attended 5 of Paul's concerts since 2002 and my very favorite is the one that I shared with my daughters. You will love sharing this concert with your kids!

Were only VIP tickets available for presale today?
No, various price levels were made available for the pre-sale.

Do not give up. There is AEG pre=sale tomorrow at 10 AM. Passwords came in email from AEG. Last time I went to Denver, I talked to the venue after not being happy with what was offered in pre-sale here. The manager told me that the fan club gets a certain number of tickets, but some good tickets have to be available for the public sale. Guess I lucked out as I had no problems this time. I have had problems in the past, so I feel your pain.

Yep, that's what I'm shooting for tomorrow. My uncle has generously accepted my plea to sit on the computer tomorrow morning while I'm at school and hopefully score some floor seats for my grandmother and I. If not, there is still the general sale and who knows what else

Got my tickets!! Section 302, Row H, Seats 12 and 13. The opposite side and further back away from the stage than when I had my nosebleed seats at Paul's Tulsa show in '09. I've had my experience on the floor (smack dab in the middle of the arena, in KC last year) so these seats are fine by me!

I have two others who will be traveling with me, and neither one of them wants to go to Texas or St. Louis. I'm hoping for more options.

When I first heard about then newly announced shows I paid for the 'premier' account thinking I would get advance notice of presales. I was gone most of the day and when I got home, found out about today's presale. Did NOT recieve any advance notice. The best tix I could get were sec. 104. Saw Paul last August @ Wrigley Field with my husband. This time I am taking my almost-15 year old. She has shunned my Beatle love most of her life until the last 6 months or so when all she is listening to is classic rock. Last night I walked in on her downloading The White Album (my fav). I guess I DID raise her right. So tomorrow morning I will be trying for floor seats since hours of refreshing did not get them for me tonight. I would be ok with 104 but this being her first BIG concert (she's been to others but not of this scope) I kind of want her to experience the floor. My last 2 floor seat experiences were not so great though - people dancing on chairs in front of us, and we're not giants. I was in row 20 at Wrigley Fied and Paul was but a dot to us, we watched the screen most of the time. What do you all think, keep my 104's or try for floor seats. I want this to be memorable for my daughter. Really wish I could afford the sound check tix but that's a family vacation in one night. Comments very welcome.

vaca2012- I'm shooting for the same method that you are, to try today and see what comes up!!! I think you're doing what's right...go for the best you can get! Good Luck!!!

Quick question for those who did Gold VIP seating... Did you guys get floor if you were quick enough? I read many of you go for Soundcheck and such and I really can't afford it... because I'm a full time college student. I may get something like that if he tours again... and I will fly out to that one. It's just, I'm still a little young. I'm glad to see there was many happy people in this forum. I'm pretty sure I did a dry run of tickets yesterday morning 30 min after it opened and got row 12 section B - apparently good seats... I'm starting to second guess myself because it's my first time. ops: My sale is at 10am Mountain time and it's 3 hours away... I couldn't sleep. Thanks for your help!

Are you going to try for a "hot seat" package? If so, you have a good chance of pulling up a floor seat. The "hot seat" is higher priced (I believe they also send you a merchandise package, usually arrives after the show). You may be able to get floor seats for the regular price tickets, especially if you are only requesting one ticket. Also, it doesn't hurt to keep trying if the first thing you pull up isn't what you want. If you aren't able to get floor seats on regular price, consider the sections on the sides but close to the front. Don't panic, and Good Luck!

Yeah, going to get a "Hot Seat" package, but only Gold, not Hot Sound or Front Row. I'm still spending a bit of money, but seeing what regular seat might pop up and retrying is worth me time. Not many folks where I'm out at likely don't have premium membership to look early for regular for the PM presale, so worth poking at for sure. For spending on Gold, I have specifics that I would like to meet - first 10 rows in the middle or 20 at worst on the floor. I'm not spending $500 or $700 for less than. For regular, something close to the stage. Hopefully I'm not being overly optimistic.... Thanks for the advice and I'm trying hard to not panic... lol

Did you buy the seats in 104? Just my opinion...but I would consider keeping section 104. If you're worried about not being able to see over people standing in front of you (which will happen on the floor) then it's great to have the advantage of that incline. Now, section 102 or 103 would be better. But if you pull up floor seats in 20th row or further back, then I think the incline seats would be better for your daughter, so she could see the show. It seems a shame to have to watch the screens the whole time and not Paul himself. Definitely search this morning and see what you get then weigh the pros and cons. Good Luck!
