The Warehouse is a crapshoot. You put in your requests, they have a request period, and then they let you know what you got confirmed for.
Shows have different levels of seating - usually pit, upper level, lower level and lawn. You can usually opt out of lawn. In a venue that is only upper/lower level - you can pick that level but there is no guarantee you will get tickets, or that you will get lower level tickets. So you take a chance with it.
Once Warehouse informs you of what you got, then you can try in the public sale for what you didn't get confirmed for. I like the Warehouse because I can try to get tickets for high demand shows. Usually every summer of the 6ish shows I request for, I get declined for two.
30.00 a year is worth it for that, and you get the member CD. Also, new Warehouse members get treated better in ticket sales/requests than long term members. I'm not sure why, but we see it happen every year.
