8/23 PHILLY - GIDDY UP!

Can't wait!

Unless WXPN is streaming this show, I don't think we'll get a recording. The Mann website specifically mentions that no audio or video equipment is allowed for any performances.

I understand that wxpn will be broadcasting from this show 4-7 but i don't think they are recording it.

I wasn't planning on going to this show (what?) and then realized I can't live without it.  Don't have tickets yet, but will probably pull the trigger on stubhub sometime tonight, as there is nothing too hot left on ticketmaster. 

[Ruckus]

We definitely need a Ruckus update. Whaddya say man? Are you going to make the trip?

I am likely going to pass on this one and save some cash for some other trips and shows unless something magically falls in my lap. 

However, I would like to sincerely thank Mahg33ta and APR for going way out of their way to help me and my friend find good tickets. :)   I'm just grateful for all the overly kind people I have met on this board.  Thanks again   Awesome!

Rock it Out!

I have snatched victory out of the jaws of defeat.

After being out for this show and then learning I couldn't transfer the tix, I spent the day moping around until Mrs Magh33ta said "WTF why don't we just go after all".   Whoo hoo that's my lady!

So we are packing up and I am researching hotel rooms as we speak.   We'll be there tomorrow evening - time uncertain - but look forward to seeing everyone.   Would love to be a part of pre-game activities so if you have my cell or email keep me in the loop.

Along with this came a promise to stop buying tickets for shows months in advance with no clear way how to use them.   But damn roll call is like crack - great seats at face value.   how to say no?

Anyway, I'm pysched, obviously.   No Honest Man please!

[mahg33ta]

ps if any locals have hotel recs, I'd love to hear it.   Doesn't need to be the ritz, I'll be in the room less than 8 hrs total.   safe, clean, quiet, convenient to venue would be great.   I just re-read the thread but didn't see anything.

These two are the closest I can think to the venue, I pass by them everyday on the way to work, safe areas, but I've never stayed at either one.

That's awesome!! Great lady you have there. Keep her around :-)

Ruckus---X2 what Tracy said! JK we'll miss you ..looks like you have a lot of awesome shows coming up, though!

I have two fan club purchase tickets available for tomorrows show.  I was hoping to take the wife and kid but plans changed the last minute.

I will be at the show tomorrow with two extra tickets.  Only looking for face value.  In this case $51.10 for each ticket.

Awsome Seats!  Located in O/A/C section.  Seats 103 and 104.  I will be in seat 105.

Based on the Manns seating chart I would assume this means Orchestra/A/Center.

From what I can gather it's row 4!!!  That's just after the pit which is only a few rows deep.

First one to email me gets them.  We'll have to exchange cell # etc.

Reach out to me at RoryLiam1@aol.com

I feel much better offering this on the fan site than just pawning them off to some Joe that walks up to the gate. These tickets need to end up in true MMJ Fans Hands!!

Magh33ta, this is very, very good news! Mrs Magh33ta must have been picking up my psychic vibes! Can't wait to see you guys!
Last year we stayed at the Hyatt at Penns Landing and it was lovely. Not sure of proximity to the venue and all that but it was great. We actually did it through a tip from ericm and went on price line, put in 4 star or higher and came up with that at like half price.

Either way, we will be down between 5 and 6, so we will catch you guys there!

actually it was 4 days living with her mother-in-law that provided the necessary motivation.

is it the venue people are heading straight to?

[JohnnyClash]

I found a home for my two tickets.  Congrats to the Lurker!
