Thanks for the heads up, C7L! Even though I have no way of getting there, Borgata still holds memories for me from two years ago, when Glenn did a solo show, and PLS and Soda missed it due to unexpected events.

You can read some reviews here:

Thanks for posting that link to those old review, gef! I haven't read them in ages. I was laughing out loud.

I'm wondering tho, who was that strange woman posting under my name? No way could I have ever been so shallow!

Oh, you all know that's a lie. And btw, I still have the goobered on shirt!

I don't think dreamer or I told this story after Charlottesville:
Before the show at our ILAA dinner, dreamer and I sat down at a table that was occupied two other people, a married couple.

Before we were even in our chairs, the man looked at dreamer and said, "I remember you from Atlantic City, you were rushing the stage and as you passed by me in the row, you told me if I didn't get out of your way, you were going to crush my toes!"

We didn't recognize them, and I'm sure dreamer and I had totally dumbfounded looks on our faces, but I recovered and said something like, "Yeah, that sounds like our Kay!"

After speaking with them (they were incredibly fun and nice), dreamer and I realized that we did indeed remember them from the Borgata and that they had been sitting at the end of our row, so we did pass by them in a huge hurry.

I know dreamer would never say anything like that to someone, (he was joking and funny throughout dinner so I'm positive he was kidding.) But then again the entire thing is kind of a blur. I hope we didn't smash the man's toes in our rush!

LOL, Molly - that's very funny! What wonderful memories you all have!

For those of you who print your own money, there will be a second show at the Borgata, on Sat. July 19th.

[Mrs Frey]

LOL, Zermie!

Thanks for the heads-up Zermie but...

Holy CRAP! Check out these prices, people!

Golden Circle $501.00
Floor Seating $396.00
Riser Rows A-L $296.00
Riser Rows M-Y $196.00

And the price of ILAA tickets...

5 Star Package Price: $ 595.00 - 1495.00
At first I was confused by the two-tier pricing, but then I saw that some 5 star packages have seats in the first 10 rows of the risers - I'd guess those are the $595. First ten rows on the floor: $1495.

4 Star Package Price: $ 395.00 - 795.00
Again, the risers/floor distinction. I find it amusing that the 4-star package offers seats in the first 20 rows of the risers as if that's a prize, when you can see from the row lettering (A-Y) that there are only 25 rows in the risers, period.

So here ILAA is taking over not only the front seats of the floor, but the front seats in the tiers. Special for the Borgata, or the shape of things to come?

OMG!

I was thinking I had enough saved up for ILAA seats for one show! If this continues as the tour does, it ain't happening for me! This is really ridiculous.

[Mrs Frey]

Thanks for the information, Soda.

Ridiculous indeed, Brooke!

Even though I wouldn't have a hope of going there I think those prices are way too much. Who is creaming off the profits here? ILAA itself, The venue, The ticket companies, I don't somehow think its the boys themselves! My actual ticket in London had the face value of £110 on it. Considering that the ILAA price workes out at about £440ish, I'd love to know how they could justify the balance. But those prices were only HALF of whats being charged in Atlantic City!!

ILAA Cop on! The Real fans don't mind paying extra for good seats and the VIP experience, but don't want to feel ripped off either!!
