It's clearly a lot bigger than previous seasons and can hold more people. There is even a "mosh pit" area directly in front of the stage where several fans can stand (which isn't that great of an idea for a few reasons but that is another story).<BR/><BR/>There should be no reason THIS year to have to bump 1/3 of a line. And yes, they are upfront about their policy but I actually think that rather sucks. You're a public show, the entire point is to have a whole bunch of anxious fans to up the excitement factor (b/c I doubt all those "VIP" people are going to squee over David Archuleta nearly as much as the gaggle of 12 year olds still standing outside). There should be a cap on the VIP area, IMO. There are not that many damn important people trying to get into AI, I am sure.<BR/><BR/>I hope the person planned to do other things while on her trip so that it wasn't a complete waste.Gaylahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13270090452667577697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-71791190630464789312008-03-20T07:54:00.000-07:002008-03-20T07:54:00.000-07:00If I'm reading that correctly, AI is upfront about the tickets not guaranteeing a place in the audience. Thus if you plan an entire vacation around a "maybe," no offense but the person you should really be mad at is yourself, not a tv show. Disappointed? Yes. Angry? No.englishedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12844405949981064198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-69755892347853321802008-03-19T13:31:00.000-07:002008-03-19T13:31:00.000-07:00i wouldn't change the channel to watch AI.<BR/><BR/>everything about that show is so contrived and painful to watch Gaycrest try and be witty.<BR/>and if i have to hear Randy "yo dawg" one more person..i swear.jaxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13009699859972498455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-85024710090740084042008-03-19T11:58:00.000-07:002008-03-19T11:58:00.000-07:00That sucks. VIPs on AI are people that Seacrest gave "reality shows" to. ie: Denise Richards and White Oprah and clan.wtfhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17707429637058810059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-19716185793787336852008-03-19T11:43:00.000-07:002008-03-19T11:43:00.000-07:00I couldn't get into David Letterman through the convential route of requesting tickets. FINALLY, a friend of a friend who works for CBS not only got us in, but we were VIPs. <BR/><BR/>I wouldn't cross the street to watch a taping of AI unless I had inside info that Paula upped the meds that night.califblondyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15433021451239221224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37309174.post-41591717358585084462008-03-19T11:39:00.000-07:002008-03-19T11:39:00.000-07:00oh wow that just sucks, sorry for the person. Hope you didnt have to travel far, book a hotel, pay for many meals, get a new outfit, shell out a small fortune for gas or rent a ride to the venue. I'd write ole AI a letter letting them know you're disgusted. They're making so much bank maybe they would do something special for you.
