Yes and no. Way less people will try to get tickets for this one. BUT, it's a very tiny arena. 10,000 capacity. Hell, that almost doesn't even qualify as an arena. So you have half as many good seats to fight for.

Still, I'd say more yes than no.

zoeyk · 11-11-2012, 11:53 PM

wow that is a small arena!

zoeyk · 12-11-2012, 12:35 AM

any one know if pre sale tix go on sale for the CT for citibank holders? The website is not giving me any info. Thanks!

Just looked up Barclay and they have a little over 18,000 capacity. Of course some seats will be taken away by the X stage.

I think it's for the New York shows only. I checked the link and there wasn't any info about any shows as of about 8:00PM EST

MX6789 · 12-11-2012, 02:06 AM

I really hope I can go!
I saw them in Boston this past summer, so I wonder if the sets for these shows will be much different than the MX Tour. I know the charity shows of winter 2010 were pretty regular with the addition of Christmas Lights. Maybe they'll play some new songs that will come out with the comic books?

zoeyk · 12-11-2012, 02:31 AM

Thanks! Ok does anyone know if it will be continuation of MX tour just closing out? ALso ticket wise what are people buying..? Also since theres only two ticket prices does that mean General admission I am so hoping for that.
