My Chem Chicago tickets for sale! :D?

Heeeeey-yo, so! Since My Chemical Romance were kind enough to announce that they're PLAYING THE MOTHERFUCKING EAST COAST IN EXACTLY A MONTH, [livejournal.com profile] brooklinegirl and I made the most ADULT decision to scrap the Chicago plans and go to New York, instead! \o/\o/\o/

Which means we are currently hanging onto TWO MCR @ the House of Blues, Chicago tickets - December 15th!

We'd like to sell them for face value, no fees, which is $33 per ticket. The tickets are GA.

If you know anybody who wants them, PLEASE send them our way! Spread the word! They can contact me at mrsronweasley @ yahoo.com.

Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you! :D

oh i'm definitely going. lol, i'm at work now trying to sign up for livenation fan club to get early sale tickets. if that doesn't work, i'll be at my computer at 12 AM friday till i get tickets. and yes, the line was long for lifehouse/kris allen. i waited about 2 hours, but did get fairly close to the front. they did sell VIP tickets to that and if i can get those this time i will. there was a section to the side that was above floor level. i imagine the floor is going to be crazy! lol, i'm alot older than the average fan and not sure i can hold my own in a front roe free for all...

I was just there like two weeks ago! I AM SO EXCITED MCR ARE PLAYING THERE, I CANNOT EVEN DEAL.

Okay, so it's a big open venue, with a GA floor and then a balcony. My understanding from the way Ticketmaster is set up is that you either have a GA Floor ticket or a GA balcony ticket. The overhang isn't substantial though, so most of the floor gives you a wide angle view of the stage. The floor is longer than deep - there's the front section of the floor, then a little ledge where the sound crew is, and then a back section which is raised a bit so you can see over the sound crew, but that part of the floor is under the overhang.

It has a standing capacity of around 3,200 people for both levels. There is a bench for seating along the house right wall, but that's under the overhang and not a great view, in my opinion - not worth staking it out. At the concert I was at a few weeks ago, people got there, got their spots on the floor and then just sat down until the openers started. People weren't too pushy but it was a VERY VERY different crowd than a MCR concert, so.

The concert I saw there had a line outside that was longer than I expected, and I'm sure that MCR will obvs be longer, with more hardcore peeps holding down the fort. It snaked down one block, up an avenue block and then around the corner a bit. I expect that MCR's line will be a full city block long by the time doors open, if not longer, based on other NYC concerts I've been to recently.

By which I mean that it'll loop all the way around the entire block, most likely, sorry that was so unclear. At the last concert I was at there, a friend of mine got in line at 1 p.m. and got right up to the stage in the theater - I'm guessing that for MCR it would require an overnight wait.

Also, other concerts there have had like a little VIP/more expensive ticket option - there's this raised section in house right, it's not on the balcony, but it's its own little thing that at other concerts has been sectioned off. I haven't seen that option on Ticketmaster tho, so I'm guessing they're not doing it.

It's a really good GA venue - one of the best two or three in Manhattan, IMO.

this is INCREDIBLY helpful! YAY. Thank you SO MUCH. (are you going? \o/? I can't BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING SO SOON AND IN SUCH A GREAT SPOT.) THANK YOU SO MUCH for the GREAT info!

You're welcome! Oh and I am TOTALLY going - I found out about it yesterday and COMPLETELY freaked out and then immediately bought tickets for me and my girlfriend and a friend, and ONLY THEN did I inform them that they were coming to NY that Friday, since they both live out of town, and they were both like OMG ILU. These are the good things that happen when you're dating a fangirl and have spent WEEKS flailing about the new album and everything else - those sort of decisions are very very easy to make. :D

And I cannot BELIEVE I get to see them so soon - it'll be my first MCR concert, and I thought I'd have to wait until their big spring/summer tour. SO SO SO EXCITED.

OMG, this is SO AWESOME AND HELPFUL. Thank you so so much!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I AM SO SO SO EXCITED IT IS UNREAL.

I am completely freaking out, no lie. I've never seen them before and I was sure I would have to wait until they tour in the spring/summer. Also it's gonna be such a great venue for them, seriously.

*FLAILS LIKE KERMIT AT MY DESK*

And because I am neurotic and cannot edit my comment:

The bench is along House LEFT, not House Right. As someone else commented, standing on Ray's side will likely get you closer - the doors open up into the room on House Left, so that side fills up faster. You walk into the venue from the side - the sound guys are pretty much right in front of you, with the stage to the left. I am sure it's gonna be NUTS.

....however if you feel a STRANGE AND INEXPLICABLE NEED to be on the House Left (Stage Right) side of the venue, I WILL UNDERSTAND, HEE. :DDDDD

GOD I LOVE THEM.
