where do you prefer if in the PIT? sides? back? front? I'm in no rush to be on the rail personally but would like to try and watch Charlie a bit if possible
As others have mentioned, I'd opt for the back rail of pit as close to center as possible.

I will comment on each of your comments about the pit Hairball:
In a massive US stadium show, not the best location especially right on the front rail -- well, yes and no. You will see the band closer than anywhere else, especially good for seeing the expressions on their faces, body language, and interaction between them. Paris 2 was the first time I was in the pit/Pit/PIT and I was just blown away. I had forgotten just how truly great they really are and all the reasons I ever loved the Stones came home to me WITH A VENGEANCE. And you could see that they were really into it and not just going through the motions, cashing it in. You won't see those things if u are not in the pit/Pit/PIT
Miss out on entire stage production - true
can't see all band members - yes you can, but maybe not some of the supporting musicians (qualification -- on Keith's side, a clear, uninterrupted view of Charlie is interrupted by his cymbals, but you do see him every time he hits the cymbal on that side, it just goes back and forth of course)
lower quality sound - I thought the sound was great in there which was another reason why Paris 2 was so impressive AND I thought the band was amazingly tight.
and packed in like sardines - overall, I found it to be OK. Paris 2 I was in the equivalent of the fourth row and it was not packed, and Dublin and London 2 I was on the rail so really had no problem there either.
Paris 2 was my 50th show and was the greatest Stones show I have ever seen, and to date.
And as Beast would say, "it's pit or nowhere." This, coming from the Queen of the Rail.

I was at Paris 2 2017 in Pit B, blast blast blast!
My advice: just show up, get in your correct que/line, and go from there...
BAD. YOU WILL ONLY SEE CATWALK.
Hi Plexi. That was for the Seatle show. Works well as my cousin lives there -
at least that’s my excuse! I checked last night and they were priced the same.
Not sure if the pit tickets $498 during the day or just late at night.
You can check various "View From My Seat" web pages. $400 + fees is pretty steep to just see the catwalk.
I might take them. E mail me. Don't know if they are transferable.
plexi
Yes if you stand on a box and none of the 50,000 people in front of you hold their arms in the air taking crappy photos on their iphones.
And it has to be said, if the US floor plans are to scale, those Pits look substantially bigger than the European Pits of 2017 & 18 so I really don’t think we’re comparing like with like.
It's hard to say before we actually witness the first show and get firsthand reports, but seems it's going to be quite crowded within the standing pit section even if it is larger.
Whereas in Europe you had standing Golden Circle and regular GA behind that, the US shows have a limited number of reserved seats behind the pit. Once the limited reserved seats behind the pit are sold, they'll pack in as many as possible in to the pit itself. There might be some sort of regulation as to the amount of people allowed in the pit, but pretty sure every square inch will be occupied.

Well, I am able to get onto other websites plus I tried it in Firefox, Internet Explorer and Chrome, all three and got the same message. And I have saved it as a Word document as well. Has it worked for you when you tried it later?

Yes, towards the centre at the back is a good position; if you are not so tall you may need to move away from the centre a little as you will have more room to find the right spot.
If you want to see Charlie, the pit on Ronnie's side is much better.

For what show Tom?

I have to ask, I know it's trivial but it's been driving me nuts--why does everybody capitalize "PIT"? I mean, there may be a good reason that I just don't know.
To make it sound better. bigger, and more important than it really is?
In a massive US stadium show, not the best location especially right on the front rail. Miss out on entire stage production, can't see all band members, lower quality sound, and packed in like sardines.
There's good reasons those seats behind the pit are more desirable - you have a designated spot, and the overall audio/visual experience is better.
I will comment on each of your comments about the pit Hairball:
In a massive US stadium show, not the best location especially right on the front rail -- well, yes and no. You will see the band closer than anywhere else, especially good for seeing the expressions on their faces, body language, and interaction between them. Paris 2 was the first time I was in the pit/Pit/PIT and I was just blown away. I had forgotten just how truly great they really are and all the reasons I ever loved the Stones came home to me WITH A VENGEANCE. And you could see that they were really into it and not just going through the motions, cashing it in. You won't see those things if u are not in the pit/Pit/PIT
Miss out on entire stage production - true
can't see all band members - yes you can, but maybe not some of the supporting musicians (qualification -- on Keith's side, a clear, uninterrupted view of Charlie is interrupted by his cymbals, but you do see him every time he hits the cymbal on that side, it just goes back and forth of course)
lower quality sound - I thought the sound was great in there which was another reason why Paris 2 was so impressive AND I thought the band was amazingly tight.
and packed in like sardines - overall, I found it to be OK. Paris 2 I was in the equivalent of the fourth row and it was not packed, and Dublin and London 2 I was on the rail so really had no problem there either.
Paris 2 was my 50th show and was the greatest Stones show I have ever seen, and to date.
And as Beast would say, "it's pit or nowhere." This, coming from the Queen of the Rail.

I have two lucky dips available for The Rosebowl. I can’t use them because my senior prom is the same night so I’m looking for two LDs for Santa Clara. If anyone has them please let me know. I was going to see them at T-Mobile arena in 2016 but the show was cancelled
