dodint's Thread of Concerts and Public Events

How does a band with a huge following like Phish get stuck playing The Pete? Guess I could say the same thing about Tool and Green Day.

I definitely would not have you pegged for a Phish fan

IIRC they've never played there. Played Mellon and Palumbo back in the 90s, and have done a few at Star Lake/First Niagara/whatever it's currently called.

My guess is they're playing there and at Wright State's place in preparation for their 13-night run (non-consecutive) at MSG right after it. They also haven't played an indoor show in Pittsburgh since the 90s. Perhaps Corporate Energy Center said no.

Phish is playing at the Pete July 19th

Got my tickets in the lottery

as did my brother (hoping he asks me to go). Should be fun.

Welp, just listed our Metallica tickets for sale. The missus has two large kidney stones that need removed STAT.

This dude and his wife are going to see Ghost at the Benedum Center.

This dude and his wife are going to Dan Savage's HUMP! Film Festival next weekend at something called Spirit Hall.

Was her idea, I'm just along for the ride.

But how did he feel about Rick?

Nightwish at Stage AE on Sunday. My excitement cannot be contained.

Thinking about seeing if I can fit Bill Burr at the Benedum into my schedule.

Postby **Lemon Berry Lobster** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:25 am

$122 a ticket...

Postby **Silentom** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:30 am

For a comedian? Wow.

Postby **NTP66** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:31 am

Depending on the comedian, I'd pay it.

Postby **Lemon Berry Lobster** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:32 am

For Bill Burr I am really considering it.

Postby **NTP66** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:33 am

I would. Bill Burr's standup is hilarious.

I just bought tickets to the 10pm Burr show, got seats 66 and 68 in my section, score.

They were $49 each direct from the Cultural Trust. 7pm show is pretty much sold out but most sections still available for the 10pm, tickets went on sale this morning.

Who sits in 67?

Postby **dodint** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:39 am

No idea, that seat is literally as far away from mine as you can get.

Postby **Lemon Berry Lobster** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:41 am

They were 122 on the Benedum website, Pittsburgh Trust Arts has them for $50 plus fees. No brainer.

Edit: dodint beat me to the punch. Definitely attending the 10 PM show.

This reminds me...need to get my tickets to the Banff Mountain Film Festival this year.

Theater seating isn't generally labeled the same way. Odds are next to each other on one side, evens on the other side. That way you know what side you're on compared to the orchestra or whatever...

And Burr is one of the funniest stand up guys out there...

Glad you saw it in time.

I had a choice between Row U in the Orchestra or row DD in the balcony so we went with the balcony seats.

All the seats are the same price everywhere. Wish I had remembered to login at 10am when they went on sale. 'Om kind of blew it for me by bumping this thread late.

Postby **Silentom** » Tue Mar 20, 2018 11:51 am

I couldn't be bothered to bump it sooner.

Glad I happened to click the thread. Snagged V 21 in the orchestra section. I've seen Tom Segura twice, saw Joey Diaz once, and I can't wait to see Bill Burr.
