FAN CLUB PRESALE RESULTS:
Used vespapod's account to get a code today.
MUCH better results than earlier fanclub presales - I guess a lot of folks used up their codes over the summer.
1st try had a block of 4 come up 13th row on the floor! But I really didn't want to commit to that when I know some folks wanted slightly elevated tickets (plus, yo, one grand in a click of a button when I had some friends I know wanted cheaper seats). Tossed back.
Tried block of 4, $90 level. Got row 23, Section 103. Too far from stage. Tossed back. Repeatedly. Kept trying but they just kept coming back.
Tried, for the hell of it, 2 in P1 (elevated side, $225 level). Got section 114, Andy's side, row 8. Grabbed them. My friends who wanted $90 tickets, I'll have to try to get them in the regular sale on Monday. I'll give my mom one of these for an early Christmas gift as I know that's just the vantage point for concerts she likes best.
Overall: Both BB and FC presale results much better than for the earlier announced show. And the Wachovia Center is a MUCH better concert venue than CBP, so I am happy.
