Re: GA Pit Standing Question ...

I've never had GA Pit Standing before. My wife an I are going. She is 5'. Can we hang out at the back of the pit and she would be able to see? If so, how far back is that? I have no idea what to expect. Last time I was close to any show was the 90s and that was Metallica. What should we/ she expect?

    First, great use of the SEARCH function. Second, what show? Some shows will have pits equivalent to 7-10 rows of chairs removed, some shows will be the entire lower sections of the amphitheatre. Some of the smaller pits are very cramped and no room even at the back (ATLANTA for example)

    Tampa is the entire lower three sections, huge. There will be tons of room towards the back. And there will be tons of people with pit tickets (because of it's size) that will be fighting for the rail. And it will be very crowded until you get to the back.

    That thread seems to be written by most of the people that were at the last Hartford show I saw. Im just looking for a heads up of what to expect at this show. Any thoughts?

    Last time I was on the LAWN. This time I have Pit Standing. As far as I understand there is a difference. Why respond if you have no response?

    I'm trying to help. That thread is full of people's experiences in the pit in 2010. It will be the same thing this year.

    I have the exact question for Bristow and Scranton. My main concern is will we still be elbow to elbow even in the way back?

    Okay, had to check, didn't want you to flip out like the last guy because we can't see into the future.

    This has me thinking, I think the willcall is a great thing, however i hope they do something like letting warehouse in early or something because i could see a whole clustermob happening for those who want to wait way before the show to get up front and the ticket booths not being open until a couple hours before the show. A dilemma i probably see happening for myself and others like me. Lets hope the warehouse puts some thought into how available theyre going to make the box office.

    The Warehouse Premium Pits will get in early, as they aren't will-called
