Well, I'm definitely going to DB this week to see Sasha, and when I was about to purchase tics on ticketmaster, I saw that the best seats they had available were: row 202 (upper level) for 35 dollars. I thought that those kind of seats really suck,so I held off in favor of finding scalpers. My question is, would you do the same or would you buy the bad seats just so you have something in hand by comp time? When I went to 2001 worlds, I bought sp tics but not lp, then I found scalpers for the lp. I am also wondering if any of you guys know what the "going-rate" for tics right by the ice at a comp like this. In Vancouver they were 500 bucks to "start", I'm gussing it will be cheaper for this event since "it's not worlds". What would you do if you were going/or are going???

I am row 10, and they were $50 a piece. If I hadn't waited so long I could have had row 1 for $50. The highest price tickets were $50.

If you buy them right at the door, scalpers are usually desperate by that time. When I went to the Jewel concert, they were selling them for $5!

But you have to remember, this isnt as big as a Jewel concert or Worlds/Nationals, etc.
