Whose all going?!

I'll be going with a friend of mine and we'll be traveling from Columbus, OH for the show.

DeanTheater

I will definately be there.  I live in Pittsburgh.  Really good venue right in downtown Pittsburgh.  They have played there maybe 2 other times.  Cant freakin wait!

So I can expect a very good sound in the venue?

as far as outdoor venues are concerned, I would say better than most,  The awning overhead keeps the sound from traveling and maintains decent acoustics.  I saw LIVE, Foo, Gigantour and DT/QR here.  Just bring your earplugs. I felt it was loud.

My wife and I are driving up from Morgantown WV.  My 11 year old wants to come as well. It will be his first real concert.
This will be my second time seeing DT.  I saw them last year, opening for Iron Maiden. This time they are headlining, so I am pretty pumped :metal

jrollins

Just saw that this show is timed perfectly with my R&R back from lovely Kabul.  I'll be making the trip up from Bridgeport, WV.  Last time I was at this venue was the DT/QR tour.  Can't wait!

Thanks again mikedt! I just got three tickets! WOO I'M SO PUMPED!

I hope DT play at least 2 and a half hours. Could be possible, depending on how long Trivium play.

Hey man, how close is Deluca's from the venue? I really wanna eat there. I know its in the strip district but I dont know much about Pittsburgh.

mikedt

Delucas is only about a 5 to 10 minute drive. I have lived in Pittsburgh all my live and unfortunately have yet to try the place out. We frequent this area on th eweekends, but it seems every time we are there there is a line out the door. Maybe during the week you will have better luck.

mikedt

Cool man!!! It would be nice if we get 2 1/2 hours.

Where are your seats? I got 2nd row Section 101. I am hoping we will be within the stage area after looking at the seating chart. I can't remember the seating, since the last time I was there was for Gigantour when DT played with Megadeath.

Thanks man.  I saw the place on Man vs Food and have been dying to go there. I remember something on the show about a constant line out the door lol.

Section 101 3rd Row seats 8-10. I'll have to say hi!

EDIT: I'm hoping it will be good seating position as well. Section 100 and 104 look like they would be terrible!

Jinova

Just completed my ticket order  Sec 103 row B seats 6-8  :metal :metal :metal :metal :metal :metal :metal :metal

Thanks!  :tup

The decision was based on the Chicago show being Sunday and I'm a student at Ohio State. A Tuesday show in the middle of the week would have been a major pain. haha.

Shadow2222

Hmm. Just a general question, as I impulse-bought the 3rd row tickets.

Will the sound be terrible (even with earplugs) since I am so close and slightly off center?

I hope not.  I am in the 2nd row myself, off to the left (JMX side  :metal)  Most outdoor shows have good sound, but I have never been that close before.

mikedt

I am 2nd row Petrucci side. I am more concerned with location. It is hard to tell if our seats will be beyond the actual stage area and be right in front of the speakers. That is one thing I wish ticketmasteer allowed you to do is actually pick the best available seats in the section you preferm not just a price range. Everytime I checked for seats it never selected seats in the section in front of the stage. You should be able to select the section you want and then best avalable in that section.

Driving up from the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia. This will be my first DT show. Can't wait.

Jinova

Ticketmaster put 3 bucks BACK into my account.  I hope that isnt a sign tickets arent selling well.


Shadow2222

I'm so pumped  :metal

@Jinova, I'm gonna check and see if Ticketmaster has put any back into mine
