I find it so lame and slightly unfair that you have to purchase one of these bloated and overpriced VIP packages to be able to get a decent seat, at least for my show (5/4 in Hollywood, FL). I woke up early on the day the presales were available and clicked refresh like a madman only to end up on the highest row of the second level, two sections away from the stage. I wish it was like the olden & golden days where one would camp out at the box office to get the best spot, or the general admission gigs where it was first come first serve the day of the show. Of course I never lived in those golden days, I've been growing up in the age of Ticketmaster fees and prohibitively expensive VIP crapola. Where are y'all gonna be seated for your tour dates?

Don't get me wrong though! I am so thankful I'm gonna finally get to see my absolute favorite band since age 3 (20 now) in person, and for my first BB show to be the reunion is gonna be a great mind trip. But boy for $90 it'd sure be something else to have Mike Love creepily point at me or Al give me a heads up... oh well, ya get what you can get!

i went ahead and splurged on the cheapest VIP package.  it was only 50 bucks more, so why not.  Someone was saying that you're venue might be holding some good seats till like the day before the show, then it releases them.  If that happens, i bet you could upgrade and pay the difference
