Looks like the more range Jon loses vocally, he makes up for it with increased range price-wise. Ba dum tss.

F6. I was having that same problem and could only get F9 or F7 at the back. Then out of nowhere I hit refresh and a bunch were released.

There are so many different presale offers holding tickets that it’s messed up: fan club, Live Nation, arenas, American Express cardholders, Facebook.... That’s a lot of the best tickets divided up between a lot of options.

I settled for Section 116, row 7. I prefer to be up a little then too far back on the floor.

Maybe I should have held out for F6.

Yes and I also noticed when I looked at tickets for either Milwaukee or Chicago they were still offering Amer. Express card owners certain sections after presale. Also Chicago has a special Legend and RNRHOF packages in the middle of the arena for $500. Good seats but way too much compared to standard prices in the same area. I also wonder if they shouldn't take up so many rows for the usual vip packages. Milwaukee overall is selling well (they didn't have a show last year). Chicago with a show last year is not selling well. I've been studying the pick your own seat charts. I've also figured out that during presale the arena password I had was offering upper levels seats and lower level seats in the corners of the back only.

Ticket sales are very low across the board, except for MTL that is sold out, but they hadn't been there since the WAN tour.
Honestly, I'm not surprised. Most people will not pay over 100$ for nosebleed seats and I totally understand that. This is no way to attract new fans and the casuals who have seen them plenty won't be coming back either.

They definitely are shooting themselves in the foot with these prices.

I’ve been seeing a good amount of people on facebook saying that they went last year and thought it “sucked!” and that they won’t go this go around (I went to a show last year, still had a great time).

I’d still go again if they were coming to my city, but yeah, loss of vocal range and steep price do not go well together

Absolutely, the "cheap" seats should be just that. If you're gonna be charging through the nose for the decent seats at least make the nosebleeds affordable to attract people who would otherwise be on the fence. I'd go and see a band at £30/£40 for a punt in the high seats. Anything more than that and I'll pass.
