After scrambling for a ride to ATL and scraping for cash I have gotten probably the worst seats ever for the best show ever but I'm happy. Its my first mmj concert. So I'm just happy to be going. My seats are up SRC. The place is built on an incline so my seats should still be okay.Not the greatest but okay. But I'm short, so I should probably find some really tall shoes. That way its not like the RHCP concert when I was stuck behind the jolly green freakin giant.

[size=14]Look, I had my choice of spots when tix went on sale and i chose the front of the balcony.  It's widely considered the best location in the venue as there are no impediments to see around and the sound is perfect.  You'll be better off where you are than if you were stuck 3/4 of the way back on the floor.
I was concerned when the tour began about yappy non-fan hipsters ruining the vibe but i'm sure they will have moved on to the next big thing by then and the balcony will rock!!![/size]
O, How time flies, with crystal clear eyes.  But it's cold, it's cold, when you're ending with diamond eyes.

I've seen the guys from the Cotton Club to the Roxy to the Tabernacle and now on to the Fox and every show was poppin'. "Movin' on up". Atlanta loves some Jacket and there's not a bad seat in the fabulous fox theatre.
Side note: I just got an original tapestry from the Fox prior to the reconstruction. Now just looking to take home some live EU.
Anyone think they'll be playing the new Verizon Amphitheatre in Alpharetta on an upcomingt tour? At this rate, I could see it next fall...

Yeah I think you're right. Ive been to the fox the balcony seats really are good, better than at other venues. I'm a new fan but I'm deffinately with this band for the long haul. I have a feeling this will be an amazing concert.  8-)

If they are gonna play the new Verizon Encore Amph., they will need another huge band to team up with.  
That's 12,000 tickets to sell.  
I'm thinking someone like:
Drive-by Truckers
Dr. Dog
Black Keys
It has to be another huge draw.  Maybe from another fanbase.  12,000 is alot of people and there are still tix available to the Fox show(4,000 tickets).
The Crowes are playing there in a few weeks and they are bringing along Phil L:esh to help sell some tix.  They are an Atlanta band and they still need to get the hippies out for a nice autumn evening.

I've gotta get a ticket. I don't care where I'm at as long as I'm there.
We forgot about love...

yeah. good point Shock. I'd welcome the pairing...depending on whom...maybe with the next release.
Best not get ahead of ourselves here. I selfishly want to go back to the Cotton Club shows where Tom B. was selling merch. Proud of their success though...of course.  ;)

Totally!  
They're like the lil' plant that was purchased at the store long ago that has grown up big and strong and is bearing some fuckin' delicious fruit at this point.  
I miss the lil' bush but appreciate the yummy fruit.
