Izzard

[sweetcell]

thanks to bags and ms. moritz for the password.  got a single to the thursday show in box 9.  i saw bill maher from this exact same box.  for comedy shows, i'd rather be close to get facial expressions and can deal with the side-view.  and it's not as if i'm worried about off-center sound     for folks who haven't bought tix yet and are contemplating it, i would recommend the boxes.

Interesting... I've never been to DAR, so I had no idea how the seating chart would translate to reality and what the boxes were all about.
 
 I got row L for Friday.

Hmm I have Box 9 for Friday night.  A great seat, too ... the boxes are the way to go at DAR, especially the up close side ones -- no obstructions.  Looking forward to seeing Eddie live for the first time.  His vids are a riot.

hi-res DAR seating chart.  boxes are raised off the floor a good 10 feet (people in the orchestra walk underneath them to get to their seats) so the only possible obstruction are the other 4 people you may be sharing the box with.  depending on the show, all 5 seats might not be sold.  boxes are GA, so get there early and grab a seat at the front of the box.

i wouldn't be crazy about box 9 for a music show - you'd be right under or beside the PA, so lousy stereo image.  boxes 13-26 are preferable, IMO.

you will not regret spending $50 on Izzard. TY all for the presale.. ends up I can't afford to go, but a friend is surprising his GF with two nights there thanks to you guys. <3

Any chance someone could PM me the presale pass?  Thanks

Row N is substantially closer to the stage.

plus i'm sitting in  row n  
 
 one advantage of being in a box at DAR is that is a bit more room as the seats are a tad narrow... but you are sharing a box with other people

[sweetcell]

agreed, row N > box 29.

[malkmess]

thanks, guys. i had tickets in row D for friday, but can't go that day (damn you, brother, for graduating that weekend!). so i may go for row N for thursday.
 
 i was just wondering because, with all the talk about boxes being good spots to see the show, that it may have been better to go for that.

Jamie, I hope this doesn't turn out like your aborted Superdrag reunion mission.

[malkmess]

oh, you hush. aren't they going on tour again soon? i'll have a better plan of action next time.
 
 you should go see eddie izzard and buy me a drink.

Got tix for Thursday night for me and the Mrs.
 
 Superdrag's in Bmore April 9th. Don't keep holding  your breath for a Richmond date.

if you don't need all 6 tickets, give a holler and i'll take an extra off your hands.
