thank you, cure kitty! i know that it will be an experience that i will never forget

From COF:

"I called Allstate Arena and the person I spoke with said the facility has no set curefew and that would be up to the band themselves. wonder how long they'll play on saturday?"

With no curfew, I hope we get an extra long show Saturday night or at least an extra encore!  8)

Only 3 more days to go now!    I can't wait to catch my flight on Friday, check out the town, visit friends & see the show!   Anyone sitting in Section 5?  I'm in Row 3 Seat 1 next to the sound boards.  Is that a bad thing to sit next to that?  At 1st I thought the seat would be too far away from the stage but with the half stage set-up, they don't seem too bad.  Anyone if they are OK or not?   I didn't expect to get decent seats since I bought them in February. At least I'm glad to be on the end of the row & not in the middle.  Maybe then I'll be able to see the stage better. 

Well to everyone who is going, have a safe trip & a have a great night. 

That is about where I was initially (on the other side of the board), but returned my tix when it was rescheduled, then bought crowbi_wan's ticket.  Your seat should be fine...keep in mind that the sound at the venue is mixed to what the engineer hears at the board, so you should be hearing about what he is hearing.

Enjoy the sweet spot, j

My wife and I will be in section 5, row 7 seats 1 and 2, I believe.  Stop by and say Hi if you like.

Hi all.. My wife and I will be attending the show from Detroit. I got her Section 1 row 2 tickets for her college graduation/birthday gift. We are planning to bring in her camera. I'll just shove it in my pants like I do for every show, just in case they don't let me take it in without hassle.

I'm pretty sure we'll be at Neo on friday night (to bad we can't make it tonight when  Lol is spinning!!) so if anyone is around, lets grab a beer.

See you all at the show!

Wow, I am jealous of the awesome tix you guys got!  I am in section 112 CC...I can't complaine, at least it isn't the nosebleed section.  Well, I will be out the door in about 15 minutes to begin my 10-12 hour drive. You all have a ball Saturday, and thanks to everyone for the kind words!  Like one big happy family

Wow, you must live near Canada or something? 

I know that some places in Minnesota aren't all that far from Chicago.

From what I heard all cameras are banned.

But it's pretty easy to sneak one it.  Atleast it was for me last time I was there.

Anyone interested in a Curefans preshow gathering? 

****I just deleted what I previously wrote about meeting after seeing this:

http://curefans.com/index.php/topic,5006.msg48864/boardseen.html#new

Guess we can all just meet at the Wyndham- say 5-5:30-ish?

[Soxguy]

j,
  me and my boyz seriously thought about doing just that but we'll be leaving Lincoln at 7:30am getting to the hotel at about 3 - 3:30 hopefully sooner.  by that time our tasty "beverages" should be nice and cold. get the pre show festivities started by crackin' the jaeger...   been waiting for close to a year for this and the countdown is at T-26 hrs ...or somethin' like that   grin
god bless all of you Faithful Curefans.

I won't be there...I have a 7am flight home out of O'Hare.  But I will most likely have a drink or 2 at the Wyndham bar afterwards
