Verizon (Irvine Meadows)
This is a follow-up post to a comment by Gary last week about this venue. I don't think anyone goes back to read old posts so I figured I had to start a new one.
The reason you are unable to get good seats is because Verizon offers "season seats" You hold the seat for the entire season. The premier seating is not made available to the public. The best you can usually do is the second lodge section. If you go onto ebay you will see all the season ticket holders trying to get rid of their Iron Maiden tickets. This is why I despise this venue, it's almost impossible to get good seats without paying a markup of 4 or 5 X the ticket price. Oh and someone is selling pit tickets at $319 each, good luck.

Verizon doesn't have much time left to live anyway. The Irvine Company has been laying plans for quite a while to bulldoze it. As soon as the leases are up (2010 I think) Verizon and Wild Rivers will be replaced by track homes. The land is far too valuable to be wasted by them parks and concert venues.

Wow, talk about being enlightened by 2 sources lol...now I feel better about not getting orchestra seats and it makes sense that the venue and Wild Rivers are going to be torn down in a few years.

Dan, what seat did you get?

We actually went down to Tower in Laguna to get the tickets since we had to drive down to San Diego right after. So we did not get the best seats. We are in Lodge 11 row HHH.
