I guess i'm just kind of freaking out because I don't want to miss out on the good seats for this show because Joe Rich over here has the big bucks and can just ask for the tickets and get them before me or any other regular Joe. Sorry, i'm done with my rant now.
    Don't be sorry Peek. It's completely understandable. When I logged in here and saw the announcement of his show in Miami I only had an hour to prepare my bank account before presale tickets. I managed to get a seat in the 19th row or row S even though it only took me until 5:05pm to receive my confirmation of purchase. And as of now have less than 6 wks for the Hard Rock Live show. Not complaining just was a little winded from getting details in order in that small amount to time.

    Glad he's doing these shows cause I was sure January 28th was gonna be the only time I was gonna have a chance to see him perform.

    If Glenn follows suit maybe he'll give people a little more time to breathe..lol.

    You have a legitimate gripe if you ask me Peek!! I've stated my opinion in the past about this VIP stuff!!! I'm sorry a ticket should be a ticket and should go to ANYONE willing to pay for it (or in other words---the TRUE fans-not just some guy who thinks he should get special seats because he dropped a few K at the tables-and probably isn't that much of a fan anyways!)

    Sorry about the rant! JMHO!!!!

    I was surprised about that too. But it doesn't seem fair for the comped seats to be up front. Maybe somewhere in the middle but not right up front. I agree with Willie that the tickets should go to TRUE fans.

    They should, but they don't. It is all about the almighty $$$.

    I guess this could be because i'm so paranoid about missing the date that the tickets go on sale, I called WinStar again today and now they tell me that the tickets will be going on sale this Saturday. Good thing I called because last time I called they told me that the tickets would go on sale on April 23. I'm sure i'm still gonna be in freak out mode till I actually get the tickets.

    I'm no longer freaking out. I got my tickets. After being on hold for 20+ minutes this morning, I was able to get 3rd row center.
