Mohegan Sun

Damn - I was on ticketmaster at 10:00 a.m. EXACTLY and those tix sold FAST!! By 10:05 I couldn't even get 2 tix to Saturday show. I ended up with one on Friday, one on Saturday!!! Bummer, cuz I'm used to being on the floor, in first 10 rows at Newark, in the pit at Foxboro... at Mohegan I have lower balcony. I hear those are still good, cuz it's only a 10,000 seat arena... might try for different tix as we get closer. Sometimes, better seats open up as the show draws near. Who cares, though ... I'M GOING!!! Woo hoo!!

Yea, between the Ticketmaster VIP packages, fanclub and high rollers all of the front floor is pretty much gone. I was lucky to get a fanclub ticket for the Saturday show. I don't have anything yet for Friday. I'll wait it out and see what happens.

Are you going on your own? A bunch of us are meeting up at Mohegan for the Saturday show - a girl I met in Newark and a couple of her friends.... if you're alone and want to hang with us you are welcome!!!

Where's your seat for Saturday show?

Yea, I'll be coming up on my own. With the fanclub seats you only know that you are within the first 15 rows of the floor, when I pick up my ticket from them the night of the show I'll know the seat location. Thanks for the invite.

I'm SOOOOOOO jealous... a Bon Jovi show is fantastic no matter where you are - but it would be better if I was on the floor like I normally am. I'll take what I can get.

As we get closer to the date, we can make a plan if you want.

Sounds good Mary. Yea, I actually sat in the upper corner back section for the HAND tour and I still had an awesome time!

In my experience with Mohegan Sun it's better to just wait until a month or so before the show to buy tickets. Every big show there "sells out" in 5 minutes because it's a small arena and so many tickets aren't released right away. A huge number are held for the casino high rollers - but the ones they don't take eventually get put on Ticketmaster. I didn't even bother trying to get tickets for these two because I know I'll have better luck later.

I got 2 pretty good tickets at 10:30. You should have kept trying.

I got 4 shitty seats, but it was on purpose. I hate myself for paying $126.50 per ticket as it is.

$196.50 per ticket? Piss off.

My tix are good - but I'm used to being on the floor in first 10 or so rows. I already plan on trying again after the first of the year - right up until showtime. I did that for Newark and lucked on on 10th row seats...
