flytheworld,
Did you buy tickets?
I have sat in the front row of the centre balcony, and these seats were fine.
The stage is so big that you might miss some action on the periphery if you are in a 'wet' front-row seat.
If I was to go again and couldn't get regular seats I'd be happy with the 'restricted view' seats (only a handrail in front, insignificant).

There are discussions of 'O' seats here regularly - use the search button above to find other seats that would appear to be sold out - MGM hotels & probably others are surte to hold blocks of tickets, or can get them without much trouble. Easy!
