Where are my General Admission tickets located?
On the above image, all the original Lawn General Admission will be first come first serve within the green section of the above image. Please help us out and do not leave empty seats between you and the other customers as the Ushers will ask you to move over.

But what about our Add-On’s?

Premium Hilltop Seats - Don’t worry we will be upgrading your tickets into the Golden Circle seats which gets you right up front! We hopefully will have your exact seat locations to you by end of business on Thursday 04/13/2017.

Balcony Access - The great thing about the Smart Financial Centre is that they also have a Premium Balcony that you are going to be amazed when you see. When you arrive at the show bring your Balcony Access tickets up to the Club Seats and we will exchange your ticket for a Club Seat wristband and allow you to pick your seat.

Parking - We are still working out a few details for those that have pre-purchased your parking. We will send you another email when it is finalized but don’t worry we will make sure you are taken care of!

Thanks,
Pegstar, WOMH & StubWire

Super happy for you all In Houston. I hope it happens. Truly.
It didn't feel good last night in San Antonio so I hope y'all don't have to go through that.
 
I mean, for Morrissey Tour Inc. to really let the venue/promoter go through the hassle of moving the show to a different venue due to recent weather conditions, they must really be pretty confident Morrissey can pull the show off, right? Talk about an easy way out if Moz wanted to bag the show. Sounds like a logistical nightmare for the new venue to have to staff up on 24 hours notice.

Does anyone have any inside scoop on whether Houston and Dallas are REALLY likely to occur?

So, everyone's GA ticket remains a standing GA ticket, but now there will be a section of seats directly in front of the stage, which can be purchased for an additional $75 "upgrade"? Am I understanding that correctly.

I was looking forward to the original venue. This new one looks sterile and in the middle of nowhere.
 
This is a great venue. No worries!

It's still early be wary of getting news on the day of for cancellation. Morrissey usually cancels a week or 2 worth of shows, it's his cancellation standard.
 
There's still time to cancel.

San Antonio was cancelled the day of the show (correct me if I'm wrong), and Tucson was even cancelled after the show had already started.
 
"With this venue change we are now able to offer some assigned seats so close, you will be able to see the sweat dripping from Morrissey"

Ewww - what makes you think we want to pay money to see a 57 year old man's drippy sweat stinkin up the place? This venue are sickos. :(
 
Wow. Just wow.

So, we buy tickets to a General Admission show where getting there early means you'll be up front. That's what I paid for and that's what I expect.

So then they change the venue, and for the price I paid for my ticket, now I'm forced at least 20-30 feet back (if not more) because they want to charge more for the "Golden Circle". So after paying the increased ticket price, the service fees (which would be the THIRD time since they weren't refunded from the first cancelled show), we're talking paying $100 more to *maybe* get a close seat to a show that was supposed to be General Admission.

I'm glad I'm not a hardcore fan. I feel sorry for the hardcore people who had plans for showing up early to get right up to the stage and are now being completely screwed if they don't PAY UP.

I guess I'd lose my voice too if I thought I wasn't getting paid enough. I hope enough people realize that this was a classic Bait-and-Switch.
 
So if the Houston and Dallas shows actually happen ... does this mean he'll try to reschedule San Antonio? I just read in the other thread that the Tucson venue is trying to reschedule with Morrissey.

Let me translate: Moz wasnt making enough green, promoters got the hint, tix prices raised, more bling for Moz, voice problems evaporate.
Of course, if not enough of the Golden Circle tix sell, its off again.
 
they're now selling tickets for seats behind the stage curtain ! what are they thinking?
