IMO, you got the best section for floor seats... You won't be disappointed.

He spends some time on the other parts of the stage that you'll have a little problem seeing, but most of the show is facing your way... Enjoy.

Should be an awesome seat! May I ask what price this ticket was? I'm still trying to figure out all the pricing for the different tickets. Thanks.

From what I could see at the gigs, the VIP tables are kind of inside the little wedges produced by the stage and the floor seats have a more staight-on view. I think you got great seats.

I sat in that exact seat 5 of the last 8 shows. That is the last seat in the isle so you have plenty of dance room.

What night are you going? I secured A row 1 seats 9-10 for May 27.

And VIP 2 Table 4 for May 28.

im going the 29th! if u are looking at the stage, are the seats closer to the left side or right? there are no seat numbers on the seating chart so just trying to figure out which side of the row my seats are on. also looks like alot of ppl crowd around the stage , so do they not make u stay in your seats/rows? or maybe those ppl were all the vip tables. i wish those prices didnt go up so much, u are lucky to have a table!!

these tix came to like 260 with the ticketmaster fees etc. so he raised the prices about $50 for these shows and also the vip tables prices went way up.

The #12 seat is between Sec A & Section B. Just lift your chair back and you will have that room plus the benefit of the isle. Security is really cool there and they look after you since the celebs are directly in front of you in VIP 1. I have had table seats for several shows but honestly Sec A Row 1 is the bomb. I couldn't get that row for the 28th so I settle for a table but I also have to say sitting right there when P is on his piano is also a real treat. Sat there when Alicia Keys performed.

awesome thanks for all the info! so the piano is on the left side of the stage (when u are facing the stage) i always thought it was on the right so that would be awesome if im right infront of the piano! i feel much better about spending all this moeny on tix, was worried it would be hard to see with so many ppl in front of me so as long as people dont end up moving forward towards my row, thats awesome!!! thx:)

^^^ You cant really move around on the floor too much, so people won't be crowding you...

Trust me... You'll like these seats.

My faves have been Loge 28-30 or 6-8, The Risers, or floor A & D.... Haven't been able to pull VIP yet, but those seem like a blast.

Any insight into the Rows of the Risers? I've got RISER2 Row E seats... I've seen single, double and triple letter in places for the RISER seats. And where is seat 1 (outside or between sections 1 and 2)?

I've sat here a couple of times. Riser 2 starts off at Row BBB to GGG, then Row AA-GG, then Row A onward. I've sat in seat 3 in Row CCC and seat 1 in GGG, they are on the left side of the section or as you mentioned the putside of 2 not between 1 and 2

FINALLY I can post now!!! After waiting for the .. holding period...smh...lol.

For Riser seats, the first row is BBB and going back it goes BBB,CCC,DDD,EEE,FFF,GGG,AA,BB,CC,DD,EE,FF,A,B,C...etc.

So Row E is towards the back of the risers. Seat 1 is in the corner on the outside, not between sections but closest to the restrooms. Hope that helps! cool

Try Loge 9, around Row E or F. AMAZING vantage point.

I've sat in B for all of the Forum shows that I've been to. (3 so far). It's really great, especially since it's only $25 at face value. He faces this side a heck of a lot during the show as well, and the sound is also great. Also when they call people on stage one of the entrances is through VIP1 if you're into that. Have fun!

Very good seat. I've sat in Floor A for the past 6 times I've gone. The reason your seat is so good is because you don't have to deal with the celebrity tables and the constant ins and outs that could get annoying if you are between seats 1-6. Seat 12 is probably the most perfect seat as he spends most of his time going up and down the arrow and he tends to be on the Floor A side because that is where he comes in and out and that's where the premium celebrity tables are. Also, plenty of dance room because no one is in front of you. You're going to be up close and personal, not need a jumbotron. Have a BLAST!!!!
