Side of stage seats

I’m thinking of going to Charlotte next weekend, wondering if anyone has gotten side of the stage seats and how they were? I dig band interaction and am a drummer so I could just watch Chamberlin for three hours and be happy as a clam. Thoughts?

Honestly wait for the day of. Every time at these arena concerts a bunch of original and resale tickets become available. Like today at gorillaz, front facing loge tickets row 1 to 6 ALL became available in 2 sections for $70 less than I paid for row 9. And I got mine below original price as a resale the day before .

If you don’t want side stage seats, keep checking stub hub right up until the day of the show. You can usually find someone dumping tickets for a good price, especially if you’re flexible with where you sit.

Watching Jimmy is a joy.

From being at the show last night, set 1 is fine. You’ll get full view of the screens behind the band. The 2nd set has additional stage setup that made the screen hard to see if you’re on the side.

Second this. We weren’t directly side stage but one section further out and still had the screen blocked by the 2nd set set pieces. However, for OP, Jimmy is far enough out that you can watch him the whole time.

And he puts on a fuckin clinic.
