January 10 - Sacramento, CA @ ARCO Arena [CANCELLED]

[Minneapolisnewsman]

It is a GA concert--which gives them tons more room on the floor!  I think the shows are selling fairly well, if one searches around for different types of seating.  Check back closer to the concert date, and this thing will be nearly sold out, if not sold out!!!   Going to be a phenomenal show--just wait until the hype kicks in closer to showtime!!!   

[Minneapolisnewsman]

Sales on this show are really picking up steam!!!  Don't ask how I know, but I do!!  If you are on the fence, you might want to make a move sooner as opposed to later.

Do you think they will have show in san jose?  I think I might get tickets for the sacramento show and not wait around to see if they have a show in San Jose.  I am already going to both San Francisco shows, but I want to see them as many times as possible.

Its not all GA, just the floor, the rest of the venue is reserved, and you can still get some great seats(if thats what someone was looking for). The show is selling quite well, but not nearly a sellout yet. Its understandable though, Sacramento isn't an easy market for anyone to sellout, I've seen quite a few tours in the area that where easily selling out other venues, but Sac was slow.

if i were to guess, they probably won't add one there. they have a lot of shows in CA already so i'd go ahead and get sacramento asap if i were you!

Has anyone else gotten tickets for this yet?  Or is everyone still just thinking about it?  I keep reading this thread and no one has mentioned actually getting tickets.

I get paid on Friday. I'm glad no one's mentioning buying tickets. Means I can get some. I am gonna have to buy 3 to possibly 5 tickets for this show. I have been praying all week that the show wouldnt sell out. Even if it did, I could go to fresno. Same distance from me. But I love Arco Arena.

Yeah I sure do. Modesto is pretty much dead center in the middle of the state, and Fresno and Sac are both 80 miles from me, and Bakersfield is like 200 miles away(or something like that). Reno is also the same distance as Bakersfield. I have actually considered going to more than one show, but as of right now, I'm just gonna buy tickets for Arco. If the setlist has been revamped in Vegas or Devore, I might buy tickets to that Fresno show.

Hi folks, new guy here.? I'm coming down from Portland for the show and while my tickets aren't on the floor I'm wondering why you're calling the floor GA when it looks like it's reserved seating (from what I can tell on Ticketmaster.)? What's the real deal??

[jameslofton29]

That confused me as well. Last time I was at arco, it was all GA. You could either sit in your seat, or go to the floor. Now, you have to pay a higher price just to be on the floor, and you dont get a seat. I wanted floor(its still available), but I'm taking my young cousin(she's a new fan), and I didnt want her around the chaos that sometimes goes on at the floor. I got good seats though.

[mikeb]

So what's the deal with all of the ticket "resellers" who are advertising great floor seats (for big $$$)?? I've seen a number of ads claiming this row or that row (on the floor.)? ?

[mikeb]

By the way, what's "good seats"?? I'm in section 101 row EE, do I need a telescope to see the stage?

[jameslofton29]

Arco is a small arena. Wont need a telescope anywhere. I dont understand how they could be selling floor seats, because on livenation it says standing only. If there's seats on the floor I'm going to be pissed because I could have had them.

very smart move.  if the floor is anything like hammerstein it will be a fucking mosh pit. 

[mikeb]

Anyone have hotel recommendations near the concert?

[DaNutz]

Does anyone know if they just sell tickets to one side of the arena, then only open the other side if first sells out?

I noticed at the SaveMart Center, everytime I would check the status of the lower level seating, it was always just one side.
Now the $75.00 on that side have sold out, and only the $39 tickets are available.

Im sure they're doing the same thing at Arco..Its gonna be kinda bunk if they only get enough fans for one side.

Anyways looks like they sold alot of tickets on Tuesday.
