I totally agree and don't get how in minutes these tix's are already in the hands of the ticket agents (would scalper be politcally incorrect since it's an Indian Casino?? LOL.....)....

Yeah the fan club has a presale but the tix's are dead center, there right/left side of the stage leaving the "prime" tix's for WHO???? We ARE the NATION who should get a little bit better choice of seats....

Yeah I don't mean to be pissy and bitch, I'm lucky enough to be able to go and thrilled as shyt to be able to spend New Year's with Skynyrd. I just wish more of my Frynds from the Nation could attend...

And the offer is still out there......

I'M WILLING AND ABLE TO "STEP" UP AND LEND A HAND....

Thanks rf... I watched an interview and read some of the articles.

It's no surprise that this happens, especially when there is no competition.

Unfortunately it's the fans that suffer in the end...

Well, I am certainly no high roller...and you are right, it's not fair that to get the seats I really want i'll have to consider spending extra $$$.

BUT first- I am going to try on friday and see if the casino held out some tickets to "sell" at their regular sale time that are worth the trip.
I do LOVE this band..... BUT to get up at 5 am, drive to close to 200 miles to the airport, fly east 8 hours , and drive another unknown amount of miles---- I have to have better seats!!!!

By the way, Medway---I loved the scalper comment. :-) (always been known as scalpers in my lifetime!)

Stay tuned!

Sandi

We really want to go but the room prices and not-so-great seats are bumming us out.

Congrats on your tickets, Greg. Hopefully we'll see you there.

Randy - are you and Diane really considering coming out???? That would be the icing on the cake for me!!

Oh ya, and I'm having trouble becoming a premium member again. I keep getting an error message.

ls, I feel your pain and you should expect nothing but the best if you're going to trek out this way.... SKYNYRD TAKE NOTICE.... LOL....

It would be cool to meet another member of the Nation, but would totally understand if it doesn't work out.... And good luck tomorrow.... I'm sure you'll let us know how you made out...

SwampFox, how did you make out??? Did you get tix for the show???

Thanks for asking if i got tix....
Nope....I'm still Unemployed...no money for that HIGH Priced Ticket....whew..

As for the Availability of GOOD SEATS...for NATION MEMBERS.......

I am all for Capitalism....but there also comes a point where the FANS = SKYNYRD NATION paying site members do matter......Meaning Wake the F****K -UP....SKYNYRD...!!!!!

We come to this site...support you YEAR long....have a Saloon in Honor of "SIMPLEMAN"...
We have a Band with Nation members that plays your tunes.....
We Have Summit's to Celebrate the Music and Heritage of Southern Rock.....
We put alot of our Time..Money and Effort into promoting YOU......Lynyrd Skynyrd......

the F**KING Least you as the band can do is make Premium Seats Availabe to US, SKYNYRD Nation, FIRST...!!!!!


or have you gone corporate on US.?......

I also cannot afford to go on the Simpleman Cruise.....though I'd love to hear and chat ,if possible, to the many Groups I've Supported for 35 YEARS..!!!!
so if you want to Donate some Tickets to a DISABLED VET.....SKYNYRD...I'd Accept......

You got to show more Support for the Real FANS...SKYNYRD....we're the ones who've supported you,Shared the good and Bad and are " Still Unbroken.."......You can put and end to the corporate rip-off that exists in the Ticket/Scalping world.....of your shows......

Sincerely
Swamp Fox

PS I'm glad some members are going and showing their support regardless of the Corporate..BS.!!

" That Ain't my America "

I agree with yall 100%............................ We tha Nation should be givin what we deserve for supportin tha band ...... buyin thier t shirts, cd's, joinin tha Nation, Payin our 25$, n like ya said my frynds...... supporting our boys fur 25 plus years...

Where's tha love MAN....................................................

ls, yeah that's for the "High Rollers" who spend tons of $$$$ at the casino. The money we don't have to pay for "good" seats. Which is wrong but it's there right I guess. These people, NOT FANS have money to throw away at the casino like nothing yet they get rewarded for that..... But US, THE FANS get the shaft not only in bad seats, but higher prices and who actually want to go to the show and have a hell of a time....

Now I'm going but SECT. RIGHT, ROW J!!!!! REALLY.... And when the casino put there tix's on sale TWO DAYS LATER, they had SECT RIGHT ROW J.... Same as mine.... So I guess the fan club didn't have any better seats?????

Swamp I feel for you and it is disappointing that the REAL people who should go are left out....

THAT AIN'T MY AMERICA....

Medway-

Worse case I will cave in and pay the money for tickets. It will be a combination 26th anniversary- Christmas, and BD present: and for my son his gift for finishing his degree ..
