tuned4life Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 4 hours ago Neil Young announced North American 2008 Fall tour. I hope to land some good seats via the fan club presale for the Aire Canada Centre in Toronto and the Nokia in Ottawa. Same band as the 2007 fall tour. If anyone has info on presale dates please post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rplace Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Do whatever you have to in order to get tickets. I saw him in Nov 2007, it was the most amazing concert I have ever been to. I know I will get some s#!t from you guys but I almost cried during a couple of songs...I looked over at my wife and she did shed a tear or two. The sound was amazing. Neil was so genuine and soulful. Truly wonderful. EDIT: Jut looked at the tour dates. Looks like a lot of big venues. The last tour was smaller, at least where I saw him it was.

My wife and I had front row seats for the 11/30/07 concert at Shea's Theatre in Buffalo N.Y. First time I ever saw him in a small venue. He had me in tears a couple of times. " No Hidden Path" just blew me away. I just spoke with a gentleman in Toronto that is going to get me front row center floor seats for the Aire Canada Center in Toronto. He got me CSN&Y front row in 2006 at the Aire Canada Centere, they were the absolute best seats in the house. I am going to see Bob Dylan tonight in Canadaguia N.Y.. I am spoiled when it comes to concerts, if I can't get front row I don't go. I will post pics tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Toronto, what a great city. I'd make the flight for FRow Neil. Ever been to the Red Tomato? I remember it be a cool bar right downtown. Plus Cuban cigars in that town....bonus!

tuned4life Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 I am 99% sure I can land a pair of Front row Reserved seats (section CFLR). To be on the safe side I bought 1 ticket via the fan club presale. My seat is in section 118 row 19.When I have my front row reserved tickets in my hand I will try to sell my seat in section 118. 4 hours ago Neil Young announced North American 2008 Fall tour.

WopOnTour Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I was told there was absolutely no reserved floor seating in any of the Canadian venues, just GA (General Admission) on a First-Come-First-Seated Only Please let me know if you find out otherwise Thanks WOT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuned4life Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 The gentleman that is getting them has been selling tickets in front of ACC events for many years. Before I bought the CSN&Y tickets from him I asked the security guys and they all recommended him. He most have some sort of inside connection because he had 12 of the best seats in the front row and alot of second row seats. If you look at the seating chart you see there is a narrow blue area infront of the GA floor sections that doesn't say GA. so I am thinking that there is infact a couple of rows of reserved seats. I am proceeding with caution. If he says he has them I will make a special trip up to Toronto to see the actual tickets before I buy them. If infact he does get front row reserved seats they will likely cost me double what I paid for my presale ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuned4life Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 I was disappointed to find out that there are no ACC reserved front row floor seats. Glad I got my section 118 row 19 seat via the fan club presale. Looks like all the 250.00 seats through ticketmaster are sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
