Oh, I can't wait either! This is gonna be a blast!

Yes, we need to set up a pre-show meet up. We're gonna be a mini-army of Al fans.

We're gonna be there with Sporkman too and his company, but this'll be fun. Great, great fun.

I can't wait! I'm so excited!

I can't believe that we're actually thinking about doing this show with the Springfield one. Had to drop the Baltimore concert, so decided to drop 1 for a 2. This would be nice to go to, and fun to hang out with you all again.

So through the Mothership, there were presale tickets on there today. I bought mine for my friend and I and I spoke with Sporkman over the phone and he got his too.

But we're all in Row A, which is actually 11 rows back.

VIP tickets are much much closer, but I know I can't afford those kind of prices.

We have tickets though, so we're gonna be there.

I'm curious over what Ticketmaster seats will be on Saturday with the way the presale was yesterday.

Presale is now at Row L for regular tickets. VIP is still at DD for tickets.

All the tickets bought from the presale are Will Call too.

Well, I'm kinda peeved how this is being handled. I was curious to see how close the regular tickets were today at Ticketmaster's regular sale compared to the presale; and they were closer than the closest presale tickets. They were row GG for two tickets, which is not much closer but enough. Sporkman said he saw single tickets going for row CC.

I was almost tempted to buy an extra set of closer tickets, but decided against it since I don't have that much money really.

It's just fustrating to know that I could've waited and gotten closer tickets than do the presale. *sigh*

Yeah, we ended up with Row CC right on the aisle on the right side. Im looking forward to this one, because of the fact that my friend, who has never been to an Al concert, is coming with. It will be perfect concidering we're right on the aisle....perfect for Lovr, and hopefully some interaction with Al and the band. Excellent seats for a first time show. :)
