Roger Waters to tour The Wall

So expensive but I have to say if it will be the whole production this is a one in a lifetime event.

 

I don't get how some large ticket prices are already posted (as available!) by some companies for events that have not gone on sale yet. These companies must have some sort of pass to buy bulk and scalp to us plebes. The site (linked below) was my first Google hit when searching for tickets.

Looks like the average price will be around $70 - $270 service charges included, depending on the city.

 

Got tickets to both NY shows.
So I will see The Wall at MSG and Nassau Coliseum.

Good seats to both shows.
This is a must see event.

 

Where would be the optimal seating for a show like this? My tickets go on sale tomorrow and I'm not sure where to try for. I'm thinking once the wall is built and they have the rooms within the bricks open up for songs like *"Nobody's Home" if you're too close, you might miss it.

*At least I think it was this song where one of the bricks folded down to reveal a room where Roger was sitting/singing in.

 

This is actually kinda sad, this stuffs going on over 30 years old now, and this band is a caricature of the band who created this music. I was hoping for some new ideas from ole Rog, not a rehash of the past, post live 8.

 

you want to have a good view of the stage so anything way on the sides won't be desirable.

I'd shoot for center floor or first levels if I were going.

 

Ticketmaster is doing their usual unethical practices of offering presales of elite high end packages and Amex only sales. So by the time general public sales is availabe to fans there will be nothing left by far right & left stage. I'm getting less enthusiastic about this tour and I have a feeling I will be missing it. I miss the old days of camping outside a store and paying only $20.

 

looking at his dates online there seems to be many opportunities to add dates at many venues...hopefully all fans who want to go will manage to get in.

 

Got tickets for the Staples show, not horrible on the bottom level 2nd price range, not willing to spend the $270 for the top price range to see a wall in front of the stage for half the show.

 

Thank God for my cousin! Scored us some tickets for the Staples show.

 

What are the price ranges? And I'm assuming this is for the American Express presale?

**edit - Nevermind, I answered my own question. It appears to be $75, $125, and $250.

 

Well I just received notice that every single city (and it was a few) I had selected at Roger's site for the pre-order opportunity had come back negative. What a joke. I guess I should have purchased The Wall from iTunes...with AMEX, that is. :thumbsdn:

 

I got a negatory on my two selections as well. There are $55 seats, which are in the back, of course, but will hopefully be available once the general public sales go on.

 

Just got an email saying I'm accepted for the Ottawa pre-sale but there's no prices.

 

I picked up seats at the $75 level for a group of my friends to see the show at the US Airways Center in Phoenix. We wanted the $99 ones, but couldn't get enough together. I was lucky a friend reminded me about this and fortunately, I have an AMEX card.

 

I just picked up pretty good seats for the Vegas show. Thanks to this forum for reminding me about the AMEX pre-sale!

 

I've always been a big Waters fan, but I have to agree with you completely.
Dark Side Tour, Wall Tour... old hat, really, no matter how great the sound and visuals will be.
And Roger has been saying for years he has two albums' worth of new songs sitting on the shelf he still needs to finish...

 

I got bumped from the pre-sale group for all 5 of my chosen cities (North East). I can picture the quality seats that will be avialable on the 7th for the general public after the bulk buyers get their alottment.

 

Nothing for Boston here.....

 

Same here, me and some friends were all denied for the presale for Boston.

 

So, I take it you were one of the few individuals on the East or West coast who saw one of the handful of shows PF put on for the Wall "tour?" If you were, you were lucky; if not, how can you be bored at what you didn't see?

 

I was not selected for both shows I picked in So. Cal. good thing I decided to get them on the Amex Pre-sale yesterday.
Can't even imagine what will be available when they go on sale to the general public, after all these pre-sales.

 

I was able to score myself 4 tx to the MSG show during the AMEX sale yesterday. Seats are pretty good, in the 200 section, just right of center. I noticed that the price selection for normal, non-VIP seats were only $75 and $125, leaving out the most expensive $250 seats. Even with all these pre-sales, I think there's going to be plenty (well, maybe not plenty) of good seats available for the general sale.

 

I don't think anything new from Roger would sell out like the Wall. And don't say it's just about the money-----I believe Roger is just giving the fans what they want to see and what many missed back in 1981.
