if i was legally allowed in this country to call him my husband like everybody else who gets married and treated like a person instead of an idea that needs to be fixed . . . then i will quit.  until then, my partner and i will surely enjoy this show, as partners.

on the tickets, you just need to sign up.  it is free and i'm sure it is not too late.  this tour will not sell like hotcakes last year.

a piece of paper that says "you are married"  and full rights that everybody else has that gets married, are two totally different things.  like drinking odouls.

and i hate it when people shorten any words.  all words should be spelled and said out.  i blame twitter like that one famous person.

what if roger is partnering with american express for this show.  are you not going to go?

By the time gay people are allowed to marry (with all the perks) straight people won't be getting married no more..

most str8 people that i know who use "partner" do it out of solidarity with gays - either because they don't want to use wife/husband/spouse/etc until gay couples can, or they want to sow ambiguity around them and get people to question their assumptions - "why should everyone assume that every couple is hetero?". 

By the time gay people are allowed to marry (with all the perks) straight people won't be getting married no more..

gays are always picking up heteros' cast-offs.

in europe no one is getting married anymore, so it's only a question of time until it takes its natural cultural flow: europe --> north american fringe --> north american mainstream --> gays.

I wish DC got the ballpark stadium version.  Although the show is indeed an arena thing, just to see a setup that is proportionately bigger with possibly enhanced lighting & effects would be quite a spectacle.
And....if the end of tour as currently written still stands, then Philly two days after DC is the place to be.

No thanks.

like i said: it's a great show, totally worth seeing once, but at that price i don't think i'll be going a second time.

i was able to pull up $64.85 tickets for uppers.

fyi, that $146 price includes most fees.  there is an additional $5 per order fee and a few bucks more if you want Ticketfast, but that's it.

Hardly the case...but with a bit of budgeting I can most definitely afford to spend a couple hundred bucks on something like this every once in a while. 

there are $65 and $92 tickets, so it can be done.

The AmEx Preferred Seating (Gold, Platinum, or Black cardholders) is pretty good but not extraordinary.  I pulled up some section 121s and some floor seats (middle of section 4).

Got spendy tix from the roger waters presale.  They don't tell you the exact location of the seats - just a statement that you're located somewhere between sections 1 and 6, rows A thru W - that's the entire floor! 

"Your exact locations will be sent via email within 4-6 weeks."

Bogus.

my apology . . . i really should have entered in my opinion about getting seats for this show a little more detailed.  i do not believe that floor seats will be "that great" compared to most seats in the 100s, and this show pays to sit back a bit, up-angled.  i just think the floor are too expensive, even if you got front row, which would be horrible for this size and scope of a production.

and i guess roger is ultra crackdown scaplers, with the not knowing your seats and pick up only for the person who buys them, day of.  i like the suspense.

Having seen the show from very close on the floor (from RW presale seats last year), I'm excited to see it further back this time.  Being very close was cool in some ways, but it was hard to take in the whole scope of it.  I got Sec. 111 in the AmEx presale today and am very happy with that. 
Title: Re: roger
Post by: sweetcell on November 07, 2011, 09:39:03 pm
that's where i saw the show from - 6th row of 111.  i thought it was the perfect distance from the stage - far enough that you could take in the whole stage but close enough to see the details.

if i got floor seats, i would want to be in the middle of the floor.  certainly not front row.
Title: Re: roger

Overwhelmingly a sitting crowd.  Totally bummed me out.  Even during "Young Lust" -- not only one of the more rockin and danceable tunes but also one that Roger hadn't played on previous tours -- the bulk of the audience stayed seated.   
And not only a D.C. response; saw one other show, too. Same deal.

i stood for portions of the show, as did some others in my section, when the music called for it.  definitely got up and wobbled for "young lust".  we were in the minority, maybe 1/10 of the section i was in stood up during the show.  at times everyone sat down, like for "mother".  definitely a sitting show overall.

I don't think I've been to an arena show since 1984 or so, so I'm not the guy telling you to sit down.

guilty.. I use the term yuppie...


I lived in DC for close to two decades. No word better describes whats happened to 14 th street.. my god its just one yuppie after another... overpriced bars and restaurants (sushi anyone?)..oh yeah lets not forget the ridiculously overpriced furniture places.. and does anything say yuppie better than those "art galleries"?...valet parking... world bankers dining on the sidewalk... a shit show.... about as much personality as i got on my fingernail.

they're going to keep putting up bars and restaurants and expensive condos until its one giant yuppie wet dream..


bye bye great jazz (HR57)..by bye metro cafe bye bye Pulp ..bye bye District Garden.. in its place we get expensive condos, expensive restaurants... a place that sells overpriced beer to yuppies etc..


people are now paying $2000 for a junior one bedroom.. if those aren't  yuppies i don't know what..


thank god for places like the Black Cat and Stetsons that manage to retain some sort of connection to reality.. not sure how long they will last.. oh and DC's best record store: SOM.

Springfield. Forgot to mention all the retired ex-military.

Moved in 2004

Let's see...one neighbor is an artist, another is a social worker, another a government worker, and a fourth has a off duty cab parked in his driveway. Hardly a yuppie neighborhood, at least not what i remember "yuppie" meaning.

What I mean is that I haven't heard the word "yuppie" used since like 1987 or something.

isn't that right about when you moved to the 'burbs, i.e. among the yuppies?  ;D

Takoma Park or Silver Spring?

Whoops... From about 2002 until 2007, I spent probably 5k in wings and beer on Wednesday evenings at Stetsons... I also gained about 20lbs.

Well its a funny thing.. no matter how much beer or wings I consume I can't gain weight...though I'd like to...



Stetsons was never my bar but its a good place and i've had some good times there.. I don't know they can last...

WELL, its a sore spot.. the lemming who took the picture really messed up..half a second earlier I'd be standing next to Keith Richards...instead I got Pauly Shore.. if its any consolation I think he was high cause a joint was being passed around when I got backstage.. he sort of has a high look about him.. and being high can cause anyone to look like Pauly Shore..this is well known.
