    I'm concerned about my seats. I wonder if I should try to get different tickets because I can't tell much from the seating chart. I'm in Section GA1 Field but I have a seat number. What is the difference between GA field and GA floor? I got on early trying to get a good seat but now I'm worried I'll be standing the whole time..but I have a seat number?

    Just from past experience, if you're down low, you're most likely gonna be standing no matter if you have a seat assignment or not. Pretty typical to sand at a rock show

    Yeah i think GA is GA, there is no difference and most people sit before the show and stand when the band takes the stage. From my experience you get caught up in the show and the spectacle and its over before you know it.

    The last concert I attended was U2. Saw them in 95 at Narrowhead stadium. We were in the rafters, but it did not matter one bit. Great show, great bass player.

    They had those giant screens stacked up, and put ol George Bush up on the screen and strung together some speeches to make it look like he was saying, "We....will...rock...you." Then over and over faster and faster.

    This was GW's daddy, mind you. Great concert and I was not even into the band at that time. But I was after the show.

    ok...personally, I told myself I didn't care where I ended up as long as I got in the building! I'm just excited to see them. I was afraid with a GA ticket it would just be a mad rush to get up front and I'm small and easily trampled. But it does look like I'll have an assigned spot...maybe....I still can't tell.

    Well it is my understanding that if you are GA there are no assigned spots, where you get to watch the show from is based on how early you get to the stadium and get in line. I doubt anyone will get trampled because there will be plenty of security. I would say your best bet is to get in line early on show day and you should have a good place on the field. If im not mistaken the ring that goes around the main stage holds a bunch of people so if you get in there you should have a good view of the stage and the band.

    I think the ring tix are $250 dollars but I could be mistaken.

    I think I'll keep my upper facing the stage seats and sell my GA.. hubby wants to be up close and personal.. but I think that might be too close and personal standing for hours on end.. I guess I'm old.

    what i mean is there is a ring that goes around the main stage that also serves as a catwalk for the band, which they can access by two moving bridges that connect the main stage to this outer ring. Inside this ring is the area sometimes called "the pit" which supposedly 3000 or so people can get inside, depending upon venue. These people will all be GA ticket holders but most likely they will have waited in line the longest since the area inside the pit is probably the most coveted. I think once inside you get a bracelet on your writst that way you may come and go if you need to go to the restroom or whatever.

    Another thing i have heard is that the main stage is pretty tall, so maybe being up in the very front is not the best place because it would be like watching the band play on your rooftop. Im guessing being inside the pit and back towards the edge of the ring would give one the best view of the stage, band, and all of the special effects. Plus i have heard that sound is pretty good at this position. And the band will use the bridges to move across the crowd onto the outer ring which is considerable lower than the main stage.

    just got back from Dallas Cowboys Stadium, the show last night at Jerryworld was awesome. The stage is out of this world, the band is on fire and its well worth the wait. The people in the seats will have the best view of it all, the stage and all of its tricks, lighting, etc. Those of us on the floor will get to "interact" with the band somewhat, which is great. I don't think there is a bad seat in the house. Norman we are in for an incredible show this coming up weekend.
