I had GA Tix for 3 shows in 2019. I got an “operational upgrade” to pit each time. I accidentally came across a roadie passing out upgrades before the first show in Chicago. Same guy was doing it at each show. He had a hundred+ upgrades each show. Not sneaking around, fully official. He upgraded my entire group of 6 once. Look around for someone passing out wrist bands in GA once you arrive. I was mad about the shows I actually paid for pit. But for St Louis this year I bought pit, not taking chances.

Even if you don't get the upgrade GA is the best bang for the buck in my opinion. I kind of wish I would have gone with GA.

Thank you so much Kovach. To me, that is what this board is best at, helping other fans. I think I will stay at the Marriott St Louis Grand.
Like a lot of you probably, I am torn by wanting to see as many shows as possible while worried about COVID. I am fully vaccinated but still worry with Delta surging. Trying to balance my firm belief that this will be the last US tour so my last tour to see them, with trying to remain as safe as possible. Not easy decisions to make.

Keefmick, going to respectfully disagree on Florida. Didn't Florida just set an all-time single day Death record for the entire pandemic? If I didn't have to fly and get a room at a public hotel, I'd be more inclined to risk it. Your plan to double mask and stay distanced a bit sounds good. It's the rest of the trip's exposures that worries me. Part of the deal with the girlfriend was to also do Disney while we were down there, but she doesn't feel comfortable doing that either. Nor does she think it would be very fun to be anxious about eating maskless at Disney. Half the fun for her is all the food and drink at the parks. Sorry if this is going off-topic. I'll keep it to St. Louis from now on.

I looked into the Marriott while on Expedia and while it is fully refundable, it must be paid for immediately. If you can afford to pay for it up front, no problem I guess. You can cancel up to Sept 22nd for free.
Does anyone know anything about the Holiday Inn which also seems to be nearby? 811 N. 9th Street.

I bought a ticket this morning to the St. Louis show. Something in my gut tells me I need to be there for the first show of this tour. I’ll be going solo but the opportunity to have a floor seat right beside the end of the catwalk on the B side was something I just couldn’t pass up
