Ok, I figured out what those tickets were...it seems that theyre trying to sell more PIT tickets so they're selling them in pairs of 2's, which is why they're so expensive. Every show I've been to in the Wiltern Ive gone to the pit and there's never any seatings, which is wierd considering some PIT tickets are $139 and I dont know why the're a little less. This would be the first time a show in the Wiltern has pit seating if that were the case.
In most cases, every GA ticket has a seat number, which is odd since every show Ive been to on the floor/pit was standing, but that still dont explain the different pricing on those platinum tickets.
Do you think you really have to line up that early? 250 tickets don't sound like so much to me, and most people show up at the venue only a few hours before it starts anyway...
Well, you have numbered seats anyway now, no...?
(Don't get me wrong, I'd totally camp for X as well, but only because it's fun to hang out with friends like that and not because I have to be first row XD that would only be a nice side effect haha Cheesy )
It doesnt sound that much but most of the time they let a few people in the pit if there's room so sometimes it can be about 280/290 in the pit or try to fill it up as much as they can. Its best to line up early to be up close to the stage and because you dont want to stand behind someone taller than you lol (The stage is literally like about a foot away from the rail of the pit)
If you look at 0:15-0:17 you can see the pit area and how many people it holds as well as 0:24-0:31. The wall in the back and beyond that is just the regular floor area. I'm really surprised tickets are still up for sale considering this is probably the biggest JRock band to play at the Wiltern. I hope its at least 2/3rd full. And you're right, 250 tickets does not sound alot. If we were to assume those were the only tickets sold, the venue will look really empty. I hope that's not the case. =[
It's fun waiting the night before because there's not much people so its easier to talk with them and mess/run around the sidewalk like a loon and not look crazy in front of police lol
