    Will this be a "general admission" only concert?  Do we think the presale might get us into boxes ( for those of us unable to hang with the mish-mosh of a general admission floor?

    looks like GA only as the sale date on the bb is the same as the sale date on the hob web site.............and that site is only indicating one GA option

    we will be there regardless!!

    could someone confirm general admission only?  don't want to seem cheap, but wanted to fly to Chicago to see Mr. Gray,,,,this site has always been great for the true fans to get great tickets....Would like to know if there will be assigned seats like the past before paying for 3 airfare tickets and hotel before signing up.  I know the show will be great regardless, but am on somewhat of a budget.  Thanks again to this site for allowing us to get such great tickets.

    Presale is April 13th and all tickets that I can see are for General Admission.   I will be there with bells on and camera in hand.

    The venue has the general public sale starting at the same time as the pre-sale...

    http://www.houseofblues.com/tickets/eventdetail.php?eventid=74192

    is it possible to have a pre-sale and the regular sale at the same time?

    I'm just not understanding the point of a artist pre-sale if it coincides with the general public on sale?

    general admission or not, usually pre-sales are designed so fan club members can grab tickets before the general public has access to them

    also, pre-sales are usually a small allotment of the total ticket count

    so if all the tickets are G.A. making each batch (pre-sale vs. general on sale) equal and available at the same time it would seem like you'd have a bigger pool of tickets to buy from just participating in the general public sale

    Hey CrookedRain

    Maybe the purpose of the presales is to give DG fans first bid so everyone gets a chance to buy a ticket before the show sells out?

    Confused

    In any case, we're getting warmer / closer to New England with Ohio, and I'm anxiously waiting for the next venue announcement...

    I have to believe everyone on here will get a ga ticket so relax.............it is also venues at times i think - hob are a tough nut - it also appears fraser may not have a pre-sale - that too would be unfortunate

    its all good - DG midwest tour baby!

    While my chances are slim, for me to this one I'm not going to pass up on the pre sale.

    I have my fingers crossed to maybe make it to this one. ( The only one that I can maybe get to this time) well of course if they decided to come west ~ I'd be there for sure. I've been pretty lucky these past 2 years, so we will see how it goes !  Stick out tongue

    Not sure if it will work out yet. But I have learned from past experience, BUY the pre sale tickets. Then if it doesn't work out, (with tears in my eyes) sell them here.  I will be coming solo, Kari will be busy with her life :) and a lovely life she has Stick out tongue

    Good luck everyone.

    This would have been the one for me, unfortunately I won't be able to go over the pond so soon again. House of Blues, this sounds like a great venue. Enjoy everyone who's going!

    Dear Eileen, please note that the tickets purchased in the presale will have to be collected from the box office showing the purchaser's ID and the credit card that was used doing the purchase. This means you won't be able to sell them in case you cannot go after all.
