The first of the two Chicago shows. We have almost the worst seats in the house, but still very excited! :thumbup:

Where are you sitting? Plus, anyone that's been to this theater before; where are the best seats?

hard to say. every seat in the house is great if people are sitting. they say the best sound is front of the balcony. best seats for viewing are the floor.

people won't be sitting for this show, so if you're short and on the floor, it'll be hard to see cause the floor is pretty flat.

We are in the very back of the second section of the balcony. So, I guess there may be worse seats. Just not a lot. ;)
My beloved, yet technology-challenged husband was helping me play the refresh game to get tickets and scored us box seats... until he couldn't figure out how to check out. So maybe these seats are a little stained with the knowledge of what could have been.

I have been to this theater several times and it really is a great venue with wonderful seating all around, but my favorite is a box seat or the front row of the balcony.

anyone else going solo to this show? I wouldn't mind teaming up with someone to get early entry if they're doing it.

Anyone have a spare ticket for this show ? I'm a Vault member so can help try for early entry.

I was thinking of doing the Wisconsin show then stop in Chicago on the way home. I have no ticket for Chicago, looking around. I have been offered one in Wisconsin. Got an extra ticket for the first night ? :-)

Local station 93xrt is live broadcasting the show. If any of ya tech savvy folks wanna record it that'd be great.

What's up with early entry? Do we have to still be a vault member, because I was only subscribed for the Lazaretto package
