The Spirit Song Ticket Debacle

Tickets for Spirit Song went on sale through Ticketmaster last Saturday. In case none of you know, there was a breakdown in communications and when the tickets went on sale at 10 AM, only season pass holder tickets were available, meaning that if you didn't have a season pass you couldn't buy the tickets. Some people still bought tickets though, and Ticketmaster has promised to upgrade these tickets to include park admission. (For a small fee.)

So, basically, I've been to Spirit Song, or at least one day of it, for the past four or five years, including the year I actually worked it. I know for a fact that Section 3, Row A is front row center. But what about section 1 row AA? This is where my seat is this year. It's confusing because there are two setion 1s and my aunt's tickets that she got are in Section 1 row B. Ticketmaster advertised the ticket that I bought as a "Front of the house" ticket, but I'm really suspicious. I believe it will be the first row of the other section 1 (or the one closest to the back.) Still a pretty good seat, but I was just wondering if anyone knew for sure. By the way, I bought mine for $44.99 and it was only a couple of hours ago. I have a season pass so that's what type of ticket I got.

I don't know, this ticket stuff interests me since that is my former department. Tickets for concerts, however, are handled entirely by Ticketmaster although you can by Ticketmaster tickets at the Return Visit Booth.

Section 1 Row AA is in the second section back, but not the front row of that section. Your ticket is listed as "Front of House" because it is in the front half (front 2 sections) of the amphitheater. I just checked ticketmaster.com, and they also have Gold Circle seating available. Gold Circle seating is the front sections of the amphitheater. So, if you want to sit as close as possible to the stage, do not pick Front of House, but choose Gold Circle. Or, what I always do in this situation, just leave the section defaulted to "Best Available". If you leave it as best available, Ticketmaster will somewhat pick out the closest seats for you. I say somewhat because each section of Timberwolf is divided into 2 sections in Ticketmaster's system (called x sections), and it will sell the entire x1 section before it moves on to x2, and so on, but I don't want to bore everyone with all the technicalities of Ticketmaster's ticketing system.

Hopefully this helps!

Ok, thanks Gator. I knew an employee or another former employee might know. I just don't pay attentio to it that much. I know last year we got our tickets right away and sat in section 3, row A (which is front row center) but I really had no idea where AA was. Should I assume 27 rows back in that particular section? Anyways, yeah I feel a little deceived but I don't care too much. I bought tickets for all three days and can probably make my money back by just selling one ticket because I don't really care to go on Thursday. But, of course, there will be a little scarcity once the date approaches. Not expecting it to be any different than any other year.
