Hi Laura! I'm so sorry I didn't let you know about Oakland...You know, I didn't try to get tickets the moment they went on sale, but I did check Ticketmaster and Solo a few hours after the tix went on sale. Looks like nobody on Solo was able to get pit tickets--I guess the scalpers snapped them up again or they weren't released yet? It's a seated show except for the pit. So I don't feel so bad about not getting on TM the moment the tix were released!!! Honestly, I don't want to fly up to Oakland to sit in the balcony or be stuck in boring old seats! I'm still considering Coachella...I just don't want to take a day off of work for it, so I'm not really sure what I'm going to do. At least you have Houston to go to...I'm so jealous!!!
