Would you mind letting us know what section and row you got? I still don't see how to figure out the row before taking the plunge.

Thanks in advance!

I checked out my seat assignment at stubhub before buying. It was much better than the seatmap on Ticketmaster for U2. You can google on U2 Rose Bowl for example, and get to the stubhub site which shows the stadium map including location of the stage. I got Section 20, row 5. I had checked earlier, and seats appear to be sold out for that area. Folks are trying to get $1K each for them on stubhub. I'm happy.

Happy to hear you got the band you wanted, and great seats nonetheless! Enjoy your concert!

Thanks SD1k but exactly at what point do you get the Row #. I'm at the submit ticket request screen, and it seems like that's the point of no return. Is there a confirmation page after that?

I got a confirmation page which showed me the section, row, and seat numbers I had gotten. I think I only knew the section - 20-H - before I committed. But I had done enough research to know that 20-H was the section closer to the field, and that I would be content.

usually gen adm tickets have row and seat numbers just to keep track of how many they sell, once you are in it's standing room only. Are you talking about U2? if so then I know for sure this is the case, there will not be seats on the floor at U2, if there's a row/seat on your ticket then it's for keeping track of tickets sold and nothing else

Looks like U2 was the hot ticket to get

I was able to grab 2 in Toronto - 11th row on the ground level !

Good use of points and a nice perk for being SPG loyal. Thanks to William for the heads up. Mrs CC is thrilled

William,

I was really hoping to see Erasure this summer in Boston, but they're not currently planning any tours. If I called, would the Summer Concert Ticket redemption people be able to get them on tour and arrange for them to play near me? Oh, we also need a babysitter.

Thanks,
Mike

I just got an email about this promo. It appears FT had a 3 hour window before anyone else even know about it. Thank you, William, and thank you, Starwood!

Did not snag any tix as their are none in DEN and could not find a way to swing a trip to see the bands.

On another note, just got the email from SPG announcing the new round of tix

(SanDiego1K beat me by a minute)
