What a douche!
 

Who ever made the decision to do stadium shows with reserved seating is probably the world's biggest effen douche!

When I heard that they were doing stadiums in North America I was hoping for general admission on the field like the recent U2 show. I guess the reserved seating just lets them make a shitload more money. I can't believe how rediculously greedy the touring has become.

Whay don't they use the same tour promoters as U2 - then we could take the promoters out of the equation and unequivocally say that Jon is the cause behind these erroneous prices.

I'll only be seeing 2 or 3 shows this tour and I think the pricing scheme will be forcing me to have my worst seats ever since my first Jovi show.

I'm delighted to have them on the road - but I wish they could start thinking about the fans every now and then. Are these guys not rich enough already? If I could make $1,000,000 for playing music for a year I'd be happy to do it - these guys are about getting the money to theit wallts, not about getting the music to the fans. They are really starting to taint my perception of them.

Hopefully something happens to restore my faith in the music - but churning out 5 mediocre records in 10 years says they don't want to put the effort in or they've just completely lowered their standards. Combined there are maybe 2-3 solid albums out of everything they have released the last decade - I'm thinking they are continually looking for an excuse to tour so they can rake in the serious dough; hence the unusually high number of filler tracks we have been subject to these past few albums.

I'll quit the ranting now, but I'm still pissed that North America gets no general admission.

I think it's gonna be a shit tour compared to the arena shows we've enjoyed - but maybe the stadiums will entice a few rarities out of them.

I don't have a bone to pick either way as I never sit on the floor, but if I did, I wouldn't want general admission. I have no desire to stand there without moving to go to the bathroom or get something to eat, and endure a possibly lousy opening band, all the while, never getting a chance to sit down.

Dan you need to get your ass to a European stadium gig. That's how we do things here....

And I don't understand what the problem is. The atmosphere and the gigs are electric.

Yeah, I know. I'd love to someday.

I just scored awesome seats for Foxboro. Section 112, which is 2 sections from stage, lower level.

I thought that these didn't go onsale until 6:00 pm this evening. Did you get fanclub tickets?

It says fanclub pre-sale, but they're general pre-sale tickets.
