    I wonder if things have changed much.

    Unfortunately, I believe the answer to that is "YES"!

    PB - I also wanted to share more of my experiences that may be helpful to you in acquiring your ticket(s). First of all, it seems that prices usually start dropping some once the ILAA sales close. As you get closer to the show date, check all the sites you are looking at often because prices can change very quickly. You may want to check the sites ticketliquidator.com and ticketzoom.com. I think they are both reputable brokers, and often times seem to offer competitive broker prices. And last of all, if you only need 1 or 2 tickets, you may want to wait until you get to the venue and purchase your ticket(s) from the box office. We have said this before, there are often seats released at the last minute that were being held for some reason (i.e. unused comp tickets). It doesn't always work out that you will get excellent seats, but many times it does and you'll only pay face value. If you opt to do this, and you aren't getting the best seats, ask the ticket agent to expand the search; for example, have them search by specific sections to see if better tickets show up.

    Hope this helps and good luck to you in your ticket search. As I always say - when it comes to seeing the guys live any seat is a good seat and I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself no matter what!

    Thanks for the advice, Dreamer. I appreciate it. I did see that ILAA is closed now but i'm gonna try to hold strong with nerves of steel and wait another week. I've noticed the prices dropping a little bit but maybe one more week will get me to the price range i'm looking for.

    After this last week, i wasn't sure if i was going to get to make it to Florida but thankfully my Florida trip is going to continue as I had planned in the beginning. I will be flying out early tomorrow morning. It's snowing and sleeting here in Oklahoma so hopefully there won't be any flight delays. I still don't have concert tickets yet but we are going to do what our fearless leader, Soda, has done before and try to score tickets on the day of the concert. Of course, i would love to be in the first few rows but i'm at the point to where i will just be glad to get to go so we are going to take what we can get come thursday.
