Single seats in the front floor of UBS on 9/9 that got left behind from other Platinum purchases are being repriced as standard...at $247. A couple of good ones right now in 6th row Brad side, and 20th row dead center(which is 5 rows from the extended stage front). As platinum sells a few more of these may become available, but it looks like Platinum prices came down as well and there really aren't too many left at this point. I missed those single UBS tickets. Will keep a closer eye out. Would like to go but $690 for platinum still feels very high. Glad prices are coming down but also pissed they made true fans pay through the nose when these first went on sale

Street Jesus is a gem, though. They should play it on this tour. Agreed. I almost included that on my 'crazy 8' list, but as much as I'd like to see them do it, there are others I'd like to see more.

Glad prices are coming down but also pissed they made true fans pay through the nose when these first went on sale Platinum just lowered to 325 and 350 ea for front orchs. There are around 25 seats on Brads side and a pair in front of the extended stage. Anybody trying to do resale just got hammered lol. I'll only upgrade again if I get two seats adjacent to the extended portion of the stage , around 10 rows back if I could pick my favorite seats here.

With what's available as of now I think there is a good chance it will.

I just bought 4 tickets for a double date night at $320. Row 13 on Brad’s side. That is a fair price. I will get hosed on my January MSG ticket that was $400 and way back on the floor via the AF1 sale.

I saw my old section now has three seats available in the low 200s range. I considered it but am going to stick to where I am. I am a little concerned about seatgeek stating that section 119 is still restrictive views after this whole "every seat is the best seat in the house" advertisement. But what the hell. Even these seats are better then sitting at home yelling at my idiot dog to stop howling out the window at the neighbors walking by for a 9 millionth evening in a row.

Nearly all of the floor seats (for UBS) sold after dropping to $320-$350. That was nearly a 50% drop from the prior day
Glad I got the tickets. And just picked up the 6 disc Japanese GH box set

And just picked up the 6 disc Japanese GH box set After seeing Joe up close on his solo tour recently, I really would have enjoyed being smack in front of Brad but I'm sitting on 187 dollar seats in 103 row 15 that effectively cost 250 after all my ticket shenanigans. The tix in the row in front of me, row 14, were actually priced at 247.50 so I'm pretty stoked with the way it worked out. If I can pull off something spectacular at 250 in the few days before the show I'll take another small loss, but 350 didn't work for me. I'm quite happy with my seats though and looking forward to the show.

These prices are offensive although in line with big acts like Springsteen and RHCP. When did rock become a luxury product? And call me a purest but I hate the wavy wings. The merch with the cursive logo or classic wings just looks so much better to me. Wonderful if they will do city specific posters. Hope so

Not surprised by the prices.
I'll pass, considering what's offered. The regular stuff is too shapeless and the only girlie items are the tank tops and the longsleeve. And I have a bunch of problems with those girlie items.
First off, the fabric. Most of the other shirts seem to be 100% cotton, but no such luck for the girlie items. And that polyester blend sheds fibers like crazy. Seriously, this is how you know the people approving this stuff don't scrub their own homes themselves and don't unclog their own pipes. It's so fucking annoying to clean your light beige carpets and to scrub your white sink and they're all clean and nice and then you move around the room for a couple of hours and you go to the bathroom and brush your teeth and fucking Hell, it's full of black fibers on your light beige carpets and on your white sink again.
Second, the depth of those cuts. I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but those tank tops will only fit you properly if your breasts are in a furious race to see which reaches the belly button first or if you own a pair of watermelon-sized implants. Otherwise, that textile won't cover the nipples. Though I'm sure plenty of dudes will say that was precisely the point.
Also, while I like V-necks in general, I find that longsleeve V to be to wide and the rest of the thing to be too shapeless.
Third, the bling. Maybe I got unlucky, but 50% chance those things come off in my experience. The old logo tank top I wore at the Vampires show (and for which I've drastically shortened the straps) is the only item I have with the whole bling still intact.
Otherwise, I like the simplicity of having just the tour name and the band logo. But the rest, combined with the price... it's more than enough to make me to say a definite no.
---
That being said... the tour starts TODAY!
Hope everyone going will have a great time!

Not to pile on...well actually yeah, the city specific shirts are kinda boring. I don't think we necessarily need to see Steven crawling up the Empire State Bldg. or Joe standing guard at the border south of San Antonio (a la Maiden), but a little more please. My wife and I have bags full of old concert tees and when we move on our kid will probably throw them out or give em up to the estate settlers so I'd just as soon go and reach for a vintage Mama Kin Music Hall shirt out of the bag. I know it will fit too, unlike the funky cut JP shirt I got in April that makes my stomach pop out like a Dr. Seuss charcter.

If you’re parting with any Aerosmith ones, please let me know! 😊

When did rock become a luxury product? Yes! That is the question we should all be asking... This is quickly becoming grotesque, the way the prices are going...

Not surprised by the prices. Yeah, me neither... not anymore, anyway. Unfortunately... First off, the fabric. Most of the other shirts seem to be 100% cotton, but no such luck for the girlie items. And that polyester blend sheds fibers like crazy. Not to mention, all those poly- fabrics are much worse for your skin, breathability etc. It's like wearing a plastic bag Cotton FTW! That being said... the tour starts TODAY! Hope everyone going will have a great time! I am honestly on the edge of the seat to see the setlist. Anybody here going tonight? Have fun, but don't forget to keep us posted, people!
