That's a tough scenario..

As we know, Ticketmaster withholds the best seats and sells them to their own brokers who then scalp them to the customer.. Its their way of getting $200 for a seat with a face value of $70.. Should be illegal..

As far as getting those seats cheaper, yes, I do believe the prices go down significantly the day of the show, or an hour or tow before the show, and even during the show.. Its whether you want to take that risk of getting a decent seat cheaper.. and not having a snafu in the buying process.. Or finding a guy in the street with decent seats.. Its risky business - especially since you have a 2.5 hour drive to the venue..

I know I would buy tickets now and just pay the stupid price - because I need stability in my tickets if I'm driving to Dallas, which is also about a 2.5 hour drive for us.. I know I couldn't drive there and hope to score good seats.. I know I could get SOME seats - just not sure how good.. or how expensive..

Its definitely a rip-off and should be illegal.. Let us know what you decide...
