Ticketmaster gave me hell too. First I tried buying them online.... but they kept on saying i needed to have Java enabled, which i do. Did anyone else have that problem?

After about 5 trys I just gave up and called the box office... I ended up getting section B, row D, seats 1,2,3. I can't complain about the seats, but it does seam like nearly everytime I have to deal with ticketmaster there is somesort of problem.

Anyways, this looks like a great venue! I'll see you there stupidsurgeon, melcor.... and of course Jared. Hopefully I can finally sign the rock hall petition :)

YAY, I'll be going to this show too (with Jared and Danny). I was originally only planning on going to the MN State Fair show, but I figured it would be less of a hassle just to tag-along for all of them (plus I really want another chance at getting a picture with Al; (if I get the chance) I'm gonna have him hold the issue of Mad Magazine from 1965 that has the "Uncle Nutzy's Clubhouse" article that he took inspiration from in UHF!).

I should've just called ticketmaster to get through it faster, but oh well. I get stubborn when it comes to ticketmaster online.

You'll get to sign the petition. I'll have it on me!

I should go tell Greg I volunteer again. :lol:

Oh, people will have choices to a person to who to sign with. ;)

This'll be nice. It's nice to have another person doing it with you.

I'll sign both if I can find both of you. I should plan ahead on what I'm going to wear. Probably a Led Zeppelin t-shirt or something. Then I'd be easier to spot.

Yeah, so I briefly concidered the Kansas City show too...but I'm afraid I don't have the money for it...no matter how much I think I can pull it off. It would be a hassle to drive from Des Moines, all the way to St Paul, then all the way to Kansas City, then all the way back to St. Paul the next day. Well, okay, it's not the driving I worry about...it's the money. I happen to hate money...because it's the only thing standing between me and more concerts.

Yay for 4th row! Excellent work on those...especially concidering you went through ticketmaster. Thats all the better I got for Mankato on the Poodle Hat Tour, and I bought mine the minute they went on sale. I wish I was handicapped...then we could have been in that little spot in section A :P I just hope there's not an orchestra pit at this place...making a bigger gap between us and the stage.

You only need to sign it once. It's the same petition.

Well then I guess I have no reason at all to sign it, since I signed it 3 years ago. Is it against the rules or something to sign more than once? I guess I never got that memo.

No, if you signed it three years ago, you can sign it now. New try at the petition.

Cool. Yeah, I don't know what the use would be to sign both petitions now that I think of it. I guess I just like signing things. Hm.
