1st Bank Center (Colorado) NYE Run

[midwesterner]

Night 1 = $66.10 (with fees)
Night  2 = $66.10 (with fees)
Night 3 = $93.90 (with fees)
======================
Total = $226.10 vs All 3 package = $204.85

Randomly interesting to me that night 3 has premium price. Does that mean fire-breathing dragons and shit?

It means a later curfew. Nights 1 and 2 will most likely end by midnight. 12/31 will go to 1am is my guess.

Do all the VIP travel packages have 2 beds? I didn't see any place to specify one or two beds...surely they don't assume everyone is a couple?

When you order you get the choice, 1 King or 2 Queens

can we delete the word "rumor" from this thread title? 

Agreed! 

Someone needs to start a Roll Call. I gotta run but if no one does in the mean time, I'll do it later.

Hi All,

Yeah, not a very smooth ticket purchasing experience.  Looking like we have (1) 3 Night 'Z' Experience VIP ticket up for grabs.  PM me if interested.

I'll take it

Someone shoot me a text at 205-XXX-XXXX if they still need a password.

Just sent it to mgood41 (first response).  Good luck to everyone else!!

I also let my Roll Call lapse in May of this year. Didn't think it was a big deal, the presale I was interested in was OBH which is provided as a retuning guest. Feeling shut out now, anyone want to share some MMJ love and send a code? I know it's a stretch but I thought I would ask. All the best, see everyone in Denver on way or another.

As someone that's been here, lives in town, and knows people that have been to venue more then me.  They have to limit the floor ga.  NO WAY AROUND THIS.  So roll call was all ga floor, or they will limit the amount of people onto the floor, which will mean showing up early.

ill even take seats i dont care as long as im there but id most prefer being in the pit with all you peeps

Totally agree.  Every venue I've ever been in has been subject to local fire codes. Even MSG in NYC limits the amount of people they let on the floor.

I know for Springsteen shows he has a front GA Pit and and then the rest of the floor is a secondary GA. Depending on the venue I've been to shows where they only let 250 in the front Pit and others were as high as 450. Then added to the rest of the secondary GA, it added up to what the local codes say are safe for an emergency evacuation from the floor for everyone.

I'm sure this floor will be crowded but I'm just as sure they'll be a limit to how many they allow on it.

They'll just keep a counter at the gates to the floor. Once it hits the limit, no more people allowed. Went to a Jack White show a few years ago that was all GA between the floor and seats. Got there too late and they didn't let me on the floor. Ended up with an entire row to myself so I wasn't complaining!

Yeah that  would work provided the floor has its own bathrooms or access to them and concessions. Otherwise without a wristband system it'll be a real cluster f*ck. Everyone and their uncle will be saying they were just on the floor and are coming back to their spot.

I have 4 extra NYE Dec 31 tickets (Roll Call GA; Not VIP) due to the CID issue with the VIP presale ticket quantity.  I needed 4 VIP and for a minute the CID site only allowed 1 VIP and I panicked and bought 4 non-VIP just in case. Just looking for face value $95/each.  Will pick up at meet you at Will Call day of show.

re the GA thing, you never know. I've been to tons of shows at venues that are entirely GA with floor and seats that don't do anything to regulate...Hampton Coliseum, Oakland Coliseum, Cal Expo, and Bill Graham Civic come to mind. What would they do if you needed to go to the restroom? Make you wait to come back to your crew until someone else leaves? Seems like a huge headache for the staff. I bet it's just entirely open GA.

Ill send you my paypal email!  There are four, maybe 6 entrances to get to the floor at the venue, all have gates, all have a security guard.  The restrooms and concessions are all outside on these gates on the main level, so people with ga seats and ga floor can access.  If i remember right, you get a band for ga floor tickets, so the line moves fast.  But i does look like all ga, as the map has changed to all ga on Altitude Tickets  The floor will be regulated, if not it will be the first time ever at this venue.  Pretty sure its law, code, and or fire regulation.  So plan on early arrival!

I'm thinking it'll be a third set type of thing. If it's anything like NYC, the extra dough covers the labor costs for going past midnight and possibly offsetting a venue curfew if there is one.

... and the confetti and white suits and who knows what else since it's in Colorado

It would be rad to get a poster with ticket on NYE.  My first gig poster was handed out free at the Filmore in Denver after the The White Stripes show in 2002.   But guessing it will off set cost of a long show, like DayDrinkin said.... And it could be more expensive to operate and staff a concert on a major holiday.... but i don't know if that is true or not but guessing workers might get holiday pay.....  I've never done live music for NYE, in fact, not a big fan of the holiday, but this year will be different!

Sorry if already asked...

Will there be 3 day passes available during the general sale or was that only a RC/presale perk?

like i said earlier, i've only been to a few shows here - and i'm not sure any were completely sold out, maybe radiohead or bon iver - but i've never seen the floor full.  it is a large floor and it has always been pretty sparse towards the back.

At some point logic kicks in and people realize side seats are better than back floor.
