I'm wondering is it worth it to wait until the night before on stubhub to buy tix? I'm thinking maybe if the Pit tix go down to thr $750 range on stubhub I might splurge and buy one...
what were the prices for the tongue pit night before the o2 shows?
I'm already going to the Dec 15 show in the "ahem" cheap seats ;-)

It depends on how far you are from the venue. My NYC college kid has gotten very cheap tickets to concerts at MSG by watching the price go down on StubHub and then buying within an hour of the show. She even scored free tickets off of craigslist when a band staffer posted that he had some extra tickets to give away for a donation to Hurricane Sandy relief.

Ticketmaster is now dropping seats in the 100 sections at Barclay's for $500. $800 seats are now much closer to the stage. It really doesn't pay to buy early, does it?

I disagree that "it does not pay to buy early." That's not correct. It depends on what seats you are able to purchase early. If you are able to purchase front blocks or pit tickets in the presales, it very much makes sense to buy early. I think that most people on IORR who ended up in the pit or in the A blocks for the O2 probably purchased their seats in the presales - those seats were available. However, you had to be lucky, and you had to act quickly.
The actual axiom is "It does not pay to buy bad seats for high face value early". In other words, if you are not lucky in the presales, don't panic.

Agreed. That's pretty much what I meant to say, dr. Thanks for clarifying. I saw very few good seats myself during the pre-sales and the prices were ridiculous. I'm content with my Section 105 which turned out to be "rear view" but still close.
Hey Bleedingman,
After watching the videos from the 02 I think you are really going to enjoy your seat. After they pull back the ballon lips it should really open up your view quite nicely.

When do they pull back the balloon lips, after how many songs?

Oh, thank you, Virgil.
Pauly, I think there is more bitching in the US about the prices...for whatever reasons.

still hoping for a single, but the only thing coming back so far is the $500 seats on ticketmaster. Surprisingly, even the stubhub listings for singles have not even dropped. Looks like I am going to have to take my chances outside the arena b4 the show.
