I'm too cheap to do the $150 VIP meet and greet though. I'm also paying for my girlfriend.
Yar. I managed to break my bank and go with two VIP tickets for the Chicago show this December. Also managed to nab two extra tickets for my friends, but I am unsure whether or not they'll be able to attend due to flight/reservation costs. It's going to be expensive and difficult enough finding and taking a date too; assuming I get one :<
Worse comes to worse, I'll likely make another thread and see if anyone local wants to go or pay for their expenses to attend.
