Can we get a (legit) NYC Date?

[ericm]

Just got my Friday night Gilt ticket locations.
Orchestra center row B... I am beyond amped, 6th row center? glad I took the gamble to say the least.

Yea, I'm glad I paid the extra so I knew I had it AND I got this too. Row B in Orch1.


3 shows in orchestra, 1 in loge. I'm a happy boy.

Makes me wonder if rows DD and A were even available? I purchased my tickets right at 10:02 (I think Gilt opened the deal at 10 AM).Unless location and timing have no bearing on eachother?
Granted i got 4 so that might have made it harder to fulfill, needless to say I'm glad to hear you got the Orchestra also.

Hopefully EricM and Jenfarr had similar luck.

Thanks for the finger crossing Jbats  . Looks like we're all gonna be rocking that 6th row!  I got two in Orch B Center too.  See you guys there. 

Now let's hope Jenfarr had the same luck (or better)  as all of us. Pulling for ya Jen!

(Orch 1) Row A for Sat.!!!

How psyched was I to get the Gilt City e-mail right as I was getting home from the Camden/MPP weekend!!!   

Happy for everyone!

Congrats everyone!
Did anybody else get friday night Gilt? If so some preshow cocktails should be in order!

Nice one Jen! Good for you. 

I'm still going through Camden/MPP show withdrawals so excuse my reading comp everybody.    Forgot to say my Gilt show tix are for Saturday, and I just now realized some of you got row B for Friday.  So it looks like even if we won't rock it together, that row will definitely be rocking both nights!

Anyone familiar with orchestra 4, row J?? I didn't think any other orchestra seats were going to pop up for Saturday so I took those seats now I'm a little skeptical of the view. What do you guys think?

I don't think that's a bad seat at all. It's pretty roomy in that row of both outside Orch sections at the Beacon. You're the 2nd row of that section with the row in front of you only having two seats in it.

The key to the view in the Beacon from there is how far back from the front of the stage each bands sets up. The more forward they are the better the view from the far outsides. The Allmans always tended to be a bit on the forward setup, and I've seen them the most of all the bands I've seen there. Those seats were great for them. Some bands go a little more towards the back of the stage. Especially ones with a video/effect screen that isn't hung real high. That could be obstructed a bit in those seats but I don't see that being a problem with MMJ. My instinct is they're going to be like the Allmans and have a more forward state setup.  So IMO, that seat is a keeper. An added bonus is you're out front enough to not be under the Loge, or Lower Balcony overhangs. There shouldn't  be any issues with sound there.

Here's a pic of the Orch seating from across the room. Your seat is on the far side in this pic, near where the big opening/arch way is. Looks good to me.

it might be one of two options, ticketmaster delayed delivery of the tickets, but if you already got Etickets that wouldnt make sense.
OR, the event doesnt allow transfering, thats happened to me once before and there is nothing you can do about it.. you'd just have to email them the original eticket or hard ticket once it arrives

i agree with all of that- its a solid seat.. youre far back enough to get good perspective, close enough to not be under the overhang, good sound, good view, small row, lot of space..   no issues there ..

thanks, i chose the mail option initially, figured i'd be going and i prefer hard tickets.  something came up and i can't go anymore, sold the ticket...i think i've done hard tickets before but was able to transfer them electronically, i think it has something to do with the printing of the tickets getting delayed.

Im trying to transfer tix to someone on the board too but ticketmaster says the Transfer option is not being used for these Beacon shows. Ugh. Anyone know why? Or if itll get turned on when closer to the show?

are the tickets will call?  Ticketmaster will usually allow you to change the ticket format.  For instance if you chose will call you could request to have them sent to you electronically or hard copy in the mail.  Worth a shot.  Or were all tix will call only?

[paloozajam]

I can't believe there are still amazing seats for Friday & Saturday shows. Just pulled Sec ORCH Row T, Seats 104-105 on TicketFly for Black Friday show.  Not buying them, but that's dead center orchestra for the reduced price of $59.50.

My Fan Club tix are still better in Row DD on the Aisle for $15 more per ticket, but still!

[ashk1]

Where do you see those tix? I'm going Saturday but would love to pick up tix for Friday too.

The Beacon Theater doesn't participate with the Ticketmaster transfer program.  Not all venues do.  If you call the box office there is a message about that.  The box office is pretty easy going and may be able to do the transfer in house.  I'd call.
