I don't see any where for him to come down into the audience during WBUL. :huh: Do you think they'll have stairs or will he just skip that aspect of the show and gyrate on stage instead? :P

I bet he will perform his new original (record but not yet released) called "Wanna Fly Over The Audience Attached To Some Kind Of Pulley System."

Row EE 31 sounded close, but looking at that chart, it seems far away.
I'm in EE too. I was going to order at lunch, but then the boss showed up, and I had to wait until the coast was clear and the afternoon's work was done. Earning a living sure does interfere with life sometimes.

Oh, and I agree with El, this definitely seems like a venue upgrade for Al.

For my sister's graduation ceremony, they could walk onto the stage from the side (they sat in the stadium)... so there is a way for him to get down. There isn't THAT much room for him to move around once he's there, but he could go up both sides of the pit/circle area. He could also (maybe) have enough walking space between the pit and circle. There's a bit of break there.

Row EE is just in front of that light blue railing. The "pit" are the black chairs, and the circle are the red chairs inside of that rail. Oh, and as you can see from the photo- the venue does have screens of live video for those in the back. I'm pretty sure those are there for every concert.
Thanks Kristine! :) It's good to actually see it on a human level rather than plan view.. appreciate it :)

It looks aorta similar to the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Costa Mesa from what I can tell from that picture, Kristine. Not that me saying this has any impact whatsoever, but you know... :P

So Joe got me a ticket! Woo! I'll definitely be seeing you all there!!! Not sure exactly where, so umm... Paging Dr. BS.... (hehe)

Sounds great!

From the picture Kristine posted, it seems like one of those venues where there is not bad seat in the house. I mean, the pit was SUPER close up so it sorta brings everything into a smaller proportion!

Maybe the bad seats in the house are behind where the picture was taken from...
