kik 1,564 Posted December 4, 2014 Well... the silver package is $250 and the only interesting thing for me is that it allows you to get in the venue before general door opens. The regular GA ticket is $120. My ultimate goal is to be in the pit, but I'll be happy to be on first or second row even if it's not right in the center, but I don't want to be stuck on one end. The thing is I don't know how many VIP tickets will be sold. What if there's enough VIP people to take the first GA rows (we're standing up, so there's no row per se). So, I wonder if I should just buy the regular GA ticket at $120 and wait in line at 4-5am or buy the silver VIP package at $250, be in a premium section and not having to get in line that early, even though I'll still have to get in line a few hours before the show in the VIP line. The VIP is so tempting, but I'm desperately trying to save money lol. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FLA to the Moon 137 Posted December 4, 2014 @@kik I just want to be clear that the $250 silver VIP package is for Canadian shows only, so if you're American like me, then we still don't know! And honestly I am having the same concerns. I want to be guaranteed early access into that pit but would all that money be worth it if a regular GA put ticket will be half as much? And would we have to wait all day? Probably. Sorry if I come off obnoxious! either way all I see on Lana boards are people trying to go for the VIP! and since I'm in year 12 of high school I spent so much money already on submitting my college applications! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aaron 163 Posted December 4, 2014 Yooouuu guuuuyyys! I'm struggling with this. Of course I wanna go, but Tinley Park isn't so easy to get to from Chicago if you don't have a car. I'm sure I can find a way if I really want to, though. My second problem: I don't know what ticket to buy if I'm buying one. Part of me is over waiting in line for the whole day only to feel like dying before she even comes on. However, I don't know if I'd be content not being in the front, and I'd feel weird getting a seat if I'm going alone. Idk. So really that leads me to the Silver VIP, but idk if I wanna spend over 200 for it. I gots some thinking to do. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So really that leads me to the Silver VIP, but idk if I wanna spend over 200 for it. I gots some thinking to do. I don't know how bad it is to wait in line all day, but when I went to her show in May, I was in line by myself for general admission (there was more or less 500 person in front of me) and when they let us in and I got closer to the door, I saw a pile of old blankets, cheap umbrella chairs and plenty of takeout food trash that people left behind. I spotted some mini-camping settings that looked quite comfy. I waited 1.5h in line before they opened the door and my lower back was killing me, I had to sit on the ground. I guess for some people I looked completely idiot as I was the only one sitting on the asphalt for that part of the line. It looked like I was being punished or something. I was not prepared, but now I plan to become the queen of organization and comfort. A perfect Martha Stewart of GA. I need one of these: If you decide to get a ticket with a seat assigned, don't worry about what other people think. If I had to wait for my friends every time I wanted to do things I like, I would have missed great life experiences and opportunities. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Backfire 26 Posted December 4, 2014 Would the gold or silver be better for getting a chance to take a picture with her? Gold seems like it has more stuff, but it's behind GA and that's how you get close to Lana. Do you think she'd *pop in* to the pre-show Gold package thing? I don't want to talk about life with her, but a picture would be so great. At my concert Lana didn't even visit the seated area, she only goes in the mosh pit area and the front of that 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadcore 137 Posted December 4, 2014 Someone posted this on tumblr http://www.ticketmaster.com/promo/4e3fzr?ac_link=lanadelrey2015 I guess this would be different depending on the venue, but it seems like the GA pit, at the venue in Chicago, is closer to the stage than that of the seats. And unless you want more merchandise or early entrance for a designated seat, which seems unnecessary, the Silver VIP Package is the way to go!

Bae 565 Posted December 4, 2014 Nope, usually VIP goes on sale a little bit earlier! i think it's the presale for VIP. It says VIP package presale and then there's vip package general sale. Thanks for responding. I'm confused, though. Live Nation says that the VIP "pre-sale" is tomorrow? So, it would probably require the same code? @ first live nation said you wouldn't need the code for VIP but now they're saying ELVIS is the code for both. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
