obviously not this same show every night but lets just say some mind-bending adventures every night, each show! 

[midwesterner]

Anyone have a pit or really good seat extra ticket?

My brother now wants to bring his wife.

[DaydreamNation]

How early are all y'all getting there? Also how long would you guess the Roll Call line will be by the time they start letting us in early? I'm starting to get really nervous about being able to leave work in Louisville in time to get a decent spot in the pit, what with Cincinnati rush hour and all...

[LBSUNFLWR]

this venue is pretty small. I really don't think there will be a bad spot in the pit.

Awesome! I've never been there before

There are roughly 764 tickets still available to the Cincinnati show. All in the 200 level.  Not a good look for a tour opener 1.5 hours from Louisville.  I understand alot of folks going to EF but man we should have easily sold this place out!

I mentioned it earlier in the thread, but last time they played this venue there were a lot of empty seats in the 200 level.  I would not be surprised if they decided to skip Cincy on future tours and just play Columbus where they always get a great turnout.

Quite strange. I've only lived in Cincy for 2 years after moving  from Columbus and you're totally right. What's the deal, 513...

At any rate, I'm  getting more excited by the minute and still  feel like it will be an intriguing show as the tour opener.

[DaydreamNation]

It sucks that this show isn't going to sell out but luckily I think these guys are at a point in their career where that won't really hurt them much

I've been to a few shows over the years that were really undersold and it had ZERO effect on the band's performance. In fact I thought they were all great shows, and a kind of "in your face" to those who didn't go and a nod to those who did. 

Enjoy the show, I'm sure it'll be great.   

[wrgcucin]

touche to  that!
and you as well. It'll nice for my  first-time  family being in the 100 section.

cheers!

[timescaper]

the last shows in Columbus at the Palace Theatre had tons of empty seats.  Not defending the lack of a sell out crowd - but considering the GA pit attendance it has sold well it would be completely sold out if it were a purely seated show.

PNC just looks that way b/c there isn't a lawn but it holds 4,100 compared to the venue in Charlotte that has a lawn but is still only 5,000 person venue like the Columbus venue.

They may end up making more $ off of Cincy vs. Charlotte not having to pay Gary Clark Jr.  Keep in mind the 2012 Columbus sell-out required paying Band of Horses a healthy share - this year they are doing it with the districts who will receive a fraction of their take.

I think they are doing alright - it's a tricky size they are bigger than a theater but smaller than arena and only play the 6,000 plus venues with a more premiere opening act with the exception of event shows Red Rocks, NYE, etc.

I agree with Eric on this. MMJ will kill no matter how many people are there. Don't worry about who's there and who isn't just be glad you are one of the one's there and enjoy the hell out of the show everybody.  Can't wait for reports back, it's been awhile since OBH3. I expect an awesome Allman Brothers cover coming your way.

I probably should have checked there first. Thanks!

Any meet-ups been planned yet?
