I think the VIP stuff could be the reason I keep getting so lucky with upgrades. There were 6 seats wide open in the front row (4 now that I took two of them), and I think it could be because they released the seats that were a part of the VIP package, either because they aren't selling well or because the promo's over.
I hope something similar happens with the Detroit show, because I don't even have my tickets for that one yet, and the only seats left kind of suck.
Either way, as long as I get to see them once, I don't think I'll mind (especially with how ballin' the seats are).
It's kind of weird that they don't tell you where your seats are for the VIP package. Everyone else who has bought a ticket knows exactly where they're at because of the "pick your own" functionality (which is the bomb).
