Since the gig is in Tinley, you'll be even closer to Joliet!

True

My son lives in Aurora. If we do Chicago I can get him to go along, too.

OK so I think it's officially Maidenfans Chicago 2017!

 

[bearfan]

I am going to buy 4 on the floor for Chicago .. decent chance though I will only 3 of them .. so I might have a spare

 

[MrKnickerbocker]

I'm gonna go for seats right behind the pit. Not a big floor guy

 

[Startripper]

I'm also (hopefully!) going to buy tix for me and friends tomorrow for "Chicago." Could anyone tell me how many people get to fit in the floor area at Tinley Park? I didn't realize this venue was mostly seated. Just wondering which area I should shoot for. Also, would they be likely to offer FTTB at this venue? Thanks in advance for the advice

 

[bearfan]

It has been a loooooooong time since I have been there, but the pit area is small compared to arenas. that said, I might do what @MrKnickerbocker said and get seats right behind the pit .. as that is pretty damn close

 

[bearfan]

This should be cool .. 2 of my cousins are up to go.. 1 may or may not be able to, he coaches summer basketball leagues and needs to wait for the schedule to come out. Neither are massive Maiden fans, think it will be their first times seeing them

This seems like great advice

We just need to make sure @Wästed The Great gets tickets and we're golden.

 

[bearfan]

I bought 4 ... and I know for sure 3 will be used .. the 4th is a 50-50 deal .. so I might end up with one extra if anyone jumps on late and needs a seat.

 

[Wästed The Great]

I'm waiting on my son to see if he can go. Should know soon!

 

[Travis The Dragon]

Everyone bailed on us for the Minnesota show so it will just be my dad and I. Is anyone here going?

 

[Startripper]

I'll probably be bumping into some of you in the pit at the Chicago show--and throwing horns to those of you in the seats!--if I don't have the chance to meet any of you beforehand. Can't wait! Good luck everyone with tickets and travel. By the way, for my show there were definitely no options to transfer/resell tickets.

Got my ticket for Chicago! It will be my first time seeing Maiden from the pit!
