They just put in a new sound system in July that is supposedly designed better acoustically for the arena.

I was there last week for Taylor Swift (hey, it was free) and it didn't sound noticeably different than earlier in the year.

Interesting, I was there for the Kalachakra event and it also didn't sound too different. But I was reserving judgment for something other than Tibetan Folk songs.

Was this before or after Sade? Friends of mine saw that show and said the sound was bad.

in a foo fighters threads, hell just in general . . . nobody's going to bust a single ball for going to taylor swift, even if it was free?

Seems like most of you forgot about this ticket fiasco. At least people pulled tickets - and whining about not getting better ones. I never understand why someone doesnt just take a good one, and if need be, sell it.

Anyway at least this gave me a good laugh. And at least its not their last show - and you have plenty of other options (places) to see them.

I threw three sets of tickets back and then got GA #56-57 on the floor.

By the way, why are they numbered? GA or is it floor seating with numbers?

And the worst part is now I am waiting to find out if my family has a wedding that day. If so I will sell them here for face value.

I got a floor ticket for LCD the week before the show as they released more tickets

they're numbered for inventory purposes only.  there will be no chairs on the floor for the foos, all standing/dancing/pogoing/fist-pumping/etc.

how was that pat benetar show?

you dare compare the queen of rock, pat benatar to taylor swift?  and if you even breathe how many records taylor has sold . . . my litter box paw will be all up in your face.

[Here's the thing]

Dortiz, if you can't make it, can I be the first in line to buy them?

[mekmad]

Has anyone tried the live nation app for their smart phone?  Sounds like its a new tool to get tickets, I wonder if its quicker than a normal computer.  I saw this post on the FF board:

"If you have a smart phone the app for Ticketmaster/Live Nation is awesome for GA tickets. Just saying.
Got my GA for DC using the Livenation app even though its promoted by IMP for this show."

[sweetcell]

i wonder if they set tickets aside for mobile app users...

Another bit I read:

"wondering if there is a dedicated ticketmaster app for the droid platform and more importantly the droid x. im not sure if some of these apps are device specific. reason im asking is im getting my X tomorrow and need to purchase tickets friday morning. tickets are alot easier to acquire using the ticketmaster app on my blackberry vs. using the ticketmaster site and getting thrown in the pool with the masses and hoping for the best...ive gotten great tix for just about every show using the blackberry app vs. the ticketmaster website. any insight would be much appreciated as this is coming up very quickly between receiving the phone and ticket buying time friday morning. thanks in advance!"
