(TV) Chicago/seating versus gen. admis. standing?

["Casey, Leo J" <CaseyL@VOLPE.DOT.GOV>]

I will also be at the Metro show in Chicago.  

Question my tickets say "General Admission" but the also have "Section/Row Seat #" designations on them, can anyone explain this apparent contradiction?  How do your tickets read  Maurice?	

Anyone who has been to Metro in past know about this, and if there is open floor space for concert-goers on the first floor, or is it all seats up the stage?  

I'm going to be pissed if my $44 tickets are way back.  I always (at least at TV shows) prefer to stand  relatively close to stage (like 15-20 feet).  At the Television concert at the Paradise in Nov. 1992 the club forced everyone to sit in folding chairs crammed together and which the Paradise euphemistically referred to as "cabaret seating".  That particular setup at the Paradise sucked bigtime.

Last but not least: Ticket master, the Noise Pop people & the Metro boxoffice web sites have all stated that "No seating plan available".  Anyone know how the rows/seats "run" at the Metro?

Hey there, Tom.  Welcome to the list.

My wife and I are heading to the show, from Pittsburgh.  (Gotta start 
making some actual _arrangements_ here...)  Rick G. lives there, and 
Scott Neukam's travelling in.  Who else do we have?

There's also word of an upcoming film soundtracks show here in the 
'burgh, sometime this summer or fall, if you missed the one in the DC 
area.
