Sept. Swanking - Pink Martini @ The Hollywood Bowl (or some such thing) - Page 3

I would SOOOO love to go to Big Bad Voodoo Daddy!

Bump. Single event tickets are on sale now.

Even section X (aka "the Cindy seats") have seat backs.

I might be interested in superseats.

innerSpaceman · 05-10-2007, 07:16 PM

Well, who's arranging this? Right now, I'm too busy to be arranging, so I'm just going to whichever concert the arranger picks. I am perfectly happy with ANY of the choices, and all I want is seats with backs.

I realize full well that "arranging" means paying for. I did it for the camping trip, and put $500 on my credit card that I won't recoup in full until July. So, I'm no longer the designated payer-now, recouper-later.

But if someone will do that ... I, for one, will pay promptly. However, it's a known fact that a fair amount of repay will not happen until the actual event that is prepaid by some generous soul.

OK I can arrange this but I don't know two things :

1) How many seats should I get?

2) Where should I get the seats?

I just called Ticketmaster and these are our options:

(Be warned that ALL super saver seats are gone for all three performances).

We can be on the same LEVEL as the super saver seats (benches with backs) for $35 + 7.50 service charge per ticket on FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 14th (8:30 pm) or SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16th. (7:30 pm).

We can be one level back from the super saver seats for $22 + 6.50/ticket service charge if we go on SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 15th. (8:30 pm)

I might be able to swing by the hollywood bowl itself and pick up the tickets, thus reducing the service fees, but those are our options.

So if we are doing this, I'd like to order the tickets by the end of next week. I was thinking of getting, say, 15 tickets? 20 tickets? What do you guys think? Obviously, I don't want to be stuck with any at the end. And if you say you are in, then basically you will owe me the $. If you cannot go at the last minute, then you still need to pay for the ticket (and I'll give you a refund if all of the seats fill up and we find someone else to take the ticket)

My vote is for Sunday, September 15th in the better seats. 7:30 concert.

innerSpaceman · 05-11-2007, 04:56 PM

That's my vote, too.

Get a dozen tickets, would be my best bet. I don't think 15 people responded favorably in this thread. But I bet we can scrounge up a dozen by showday!

OK cool, so should I start a new thread with the actual title of the event on it, or is there a way to change this thread to "September Swanking : Pink Martini @ The Hollywood Bowl" or some such thing?
