    I'm going... then I'll be headed to St. Paul the next day. Should make for a nice mid-week vacation. Too bad both shows are indoors.

    At least I'll be hittin up some Alpine earlier in the year.

    I put in my request for 4 reserved seat tickets. It sucks since I've been in about the 10th row on the floor each time they've been at the Qwest. I really wish they would have set up a pit area and then had chairs on the rest of the floor. I'm sure the floor will be full, but if it's not, it's gonna look bad.

    The floor will sell out for sure. Think about it, if you were buying tickets late in the game, and had a choice between upper level or floor, what would you do?

    I agree with you, it should be full. I don't have much of a problem with GA I guess, but my wife and any other girls that are with us usually can't see over everyone so it doesn't work for them. When there are rows of chairs it spreads everyone out and allows them to see. That's why we'll be in the arena seats from here on out I guess.

    Yeah, that seems to be a popular opinion. I'll be in a suite for the Qwest center show and am curious to see how the GA floor is gonna work in an arena, since the very next night I'll be doing GA in the Twin Cities.

    I had GA seats on the floor at Qwest for a Green Day show a couple years back. It was ok, but the floor was only half full so we stayed back out of the mosh pits and could see pretty good. I can't wait for the new baseball stadium to be done so we can start getting summer shows outdoors and the GA won't be bad for those. You can stay back and still have a good view.

    Exactly what we did for the Des Moines show last year. Hung back where it wasn't crowded and could leave for the bathroom or to refill without worrying about losing your spot, no stress getting inside the venue right away, and yet we were still closer to the stage than most shows with seats.

    I was in Des Moines as well. We had a blast that day and night. I wasn't sure how that venue would turn out but I enjoyed it. Makes me look forward to TD Ameritrade Park.

    Anyone else doing the two-day trip from Omaha to St. Paul? Just to let everyone know that might be on the fence on going to the Xcel Energy Center, it's an unreal cool venue.

    I saw a few people tailgating by their car outside the Qwest in 2008. It says no tailgating, but they may have been looking the other way. There are some bars within walking distance which is what we did.

    We go to the bars as well. I haven't experienced a tailgate here at the Qwest before.

    I would reccomend just hitting the bars downtown. Tailgating might not be that great.

    The Mattress Factory is right across the street from the Qwest and it will be packed with people. There is also a new bar I believe on the north side of the new baseball stadium but I haven't been there yet.

    There is a no tailgating rule but as long as you are of age and not being stupid they will leave you alone, at least in my experience tailgating at qwest

    Ants meetup was at the Mattress Factory last time, though it was so crowded really only people that met up were us that already knew each other because we knew what each other looked like

    This is an absolute fact of a statement. I was with a bunch of friends I knew from Omaha at that show, and we were at the Mattress Factory for hours before the show. I knew that Ants were meeting up there, but I didn't know anyone. I walked around the joint 3-4 times seeing if one of the groups looked like an Ants party, and never found you guys.

    And don't worry, we've got a LONG way to go before this show hits. Plenty of time to talk about the show.

    i'll actually be 21 for this show, my birthday is acouple weeks before, but seeing as people in my group are younger than i am, we'll just be going out to dinner before, but it'll still be a great night. i'm always bouncing off the walls on concert nights
