Not yet, but will be!! So wish me luck!! Oh and BTW THE "Is this a dream" or a wet dream reunion tour party CHICA-FUCKIN-GO style is goin down at shoeless joe's on the 18th! But I am goin along w/my bro CHI-TOWN to the 16th show AL-fuckin-SO at allstate(formerly rosemont) arena, so we need to "get it together" for that as well!

Good job! 5 stars! Welcome aboard!!
Juice, we gotta get more peeps to this PARTAAY
I got tickets for section 109 row C at the Allstate Arena right side of the stage.
Do I have a great seat close to the band or are they shitty "unobserved" and won't see shit?
Has anyone had seats for a concert in that section before?
havent sat in that section, but looks like a good side view of the stage...the closer the better i always say...im in sec 212 i believeOriginally posted by DLRISVH7884

I just hope there won't be a bunch of Amps, stage
equipment and stuff blocking the view of the band, It looks like I'm on Eddie's side, so it would be awesome to see Eddie up close and see Dave up close also.
I've never been to Chicago, so this should be interesting.
I'm thinking of getting United Center tickets as well, but I don't know my way in Chicago well enough and don't know if I have the funds even though money isn't an issure with this.
me and Juice (jharp84) can get u around the city bro...i live right in the city about 10 minutes from the united center...let us know
What is the closest/nicest hotel near the United Center?Originally posted by chi-town324

ill tell you right now that hotels down there are expensive as hell if you can get a room at all.
i looked up hotel rooms down there a few days before tickets went on sale and the prices went up 400 percent for the 16-20th,no shit.
a room at holiday inn down there was normally 78.00 went to 360.00 a night.
good ole holiday inn.
you are better off renting a hummer for 150 dollars and getting a hotel room 4-5 miles from the show and paying a decent price, then ride to the concert in style.
fucking rediculous.
Thanks for the info, I'll be checking into it. 360 for the Holiday Inn is out of control. I do have a friend coming with me instead of my wife, so the cost will be cut in half.Originally posted by vh rides again

There is the RAM in Rosemont
Also Harry Cary
Forgot about that - That would be a good spot. It's far enough away from the venue to not be slammed, but it has a pretty good adult beverage selection if I recall.Originally posted by tajmahal

It'll be tough to get a decent rate since it is a weekday and hotels are probably busy with business travelers.Originally posted by TAKIN WHISKEY

Call the hotel directly - sometimes you can get a better deal talking to them directly than you can over the internets.

ive been looking for hotel rooms and those are some cheap ones ive found that are left.
i got a room a few days before tickets went on sale at a different hotel.
i think the hard rock still has a few rooms but they are like making a small house payment for one night.500-700 a night.
