i just ordered my ticket online but they didn't have a section to put who's credit card it is and it isn't mine, but do u guys think its okay or did i do something wrong or will they just poll money out of that account?
^I remembered putting down my name for the 'Account Name' part... unsure.gif .. well, did you see your receipt?
You should've gotten the confirmation and it should say which account name you put down. If not.. I'm not so sure...
I'm really not sure about how using another person's card will work when you go pick up your tickets..
But i used my own.. i was just curious about how they're going to confirm it.. >_<
You can have that person check their account balance. They should've automatically pulled the amount out if your transaction was done correctly. =]

Oh and *redballoons, that's exactly what i did on monday as well. smile.gif

You mean the User name?
No it doesn't have to be your dads name.

You cant pick them up till I think around March
or until they announce when you can
pick them up.
but usually people pick them up
the day of the concert.

I called Korea Times again and this really nice lady picked up.
I started complaining about how I called since 10am the first day and only ended up getting SuperSeats.
Nearly BEGGED for a refund.
She said no dry.gif But it's not her fault I guess.
So I was wondering, do tickets on Soompi sell well? Especially Super Seats?
Because in the "buying+trading" thread, there doesn't seem to be much demand for Super Seats.
Just want some advice because I want to buy Garden Box but don't want to buy it if I can't nearly guarantee selling my Super Seats.
Anyways.
So I asked the nice lady about the artist list and was like, "Who's coming? You know huh?!"
And she was like "No. Wait until March." LOL.

Well I only have like 4 classes so
I leave school at around 12:30
and I booked a flight at 2:00 on Friday
so I'll arrive at around 3:00

That should give me enough time to get to my hotel.

That's cool, I used to live in Philly. Anyways, you don't need a passport if you are traveling within the U.S., only if you go internationally. This is true for any airline so no worries.

Since you are going to be in L.A., the metro bus lines run everywhere until pretty late at night so you don't need to worry about that either. If you feel safer taking a taxi, you could always do that since you live around NYC so that should be a piece of cake for you. The HB is in Hollywood and you can take a shuttle from the airport that can drop you off directly at your hotel. There is usually a set rate for that. Since you are coming from all the way out there, I am going to assume that you do realize that this trip is going to cost a good deal of money.

Be careful of one thing though, getting back might be hard. Traffic is TERRIBLE after the concert and it does not help that you are in the L.A. area on a Saturday night either. Besides the enormous amount of people that will be leaving the concert+going to pick up people from the concert+people who are going clubbing or whatever in Hollywood/L.A...traffic is going to take a really long time to get out of. The setting of the streets and parking lots at the HB does NOT help. Find a reliable way to get out of there because I don't know how reliable buses and even taxi's will be at that time.

Chances that DBSK are coming, based on the events of the last few concerts [like who came and etc.] are unlikely. But we could be surprised.

As for restaurants, the great thing about the area you are in is that places open really late. Places in ktown even open 24/7. The problem is getting from the Bowl to the restaurants. If you are looking for GOOD Korean food right NEAR the HB, that might be a problem...if you can find a way to get from the HB into ktown which is like 4 miles south [although it might feel like 40 with traffic] then you're set. Use www.yelp.com to help you out there. The concert will end at about 11ish. Getting out of the stadium will take about 20 minutes. Getting out of the area itself...might take a great deal longer.

Good Luck! If you have any other questions, just pm me. [It would be easier to help you out if the people you are asking knew which hotel you were staying at and how long you are staying for.]



What about walking back to your hotel in that area? will it be safe. I think I will book a hotel close by. Maybe couple of blocks, will it be safe to walk back at 11pm? Will there be a lot of peope in the streets? don't want to get rob. But there will be 6 of us girls.

Uhm... a couple of blocks? That seams a bit far...
for your safty and your friends,
If I were you I would probably take a Taxi or the bus.
Some parts of LA are pretty creepy
so just to be safe. Also you're all girls ;x so...
yeah just be safe! Plus the bus will be filled of people (most likely packed rofl)
after the concert, should be pretty safe.

Tickets from Super Seats and all the way back
pretty much stay available till the concert.
The artist will be listed one by one starting around mid march.
April is when the full list will be released.

Stay at a hotel that's like down the street. I stayed at the Holiday Inn last year which is soo close to HB. I walked to and from HB. Even after the concert at around 11:20pm there were TONS of cars/traffic and people in the street. And this was a 15 year old and a 14 year old walking together. But there were so many lights and people just walking that it just kinda felt safe? The cars were seriously going no where and there were too many people on the sidewalk so sometimes I had to walk on the street next to the sidewalk.

i think it's because someone was holding those tickets in their cart so it showed that the tickets were sold out.
but ater a certain amount of time, if the person doesn't buy the tickets in their cart it goes back on sale again.

i kept refreshing&putting the tickets in my cart....i was doing that for 5 hours straight until i finally got the garden box tickets.

Ah seriously wish DBSK would come.
That sounds kind of scary now that I think about it but then again,
I am not the kind of person that is easily scared. So, I don't think I will be.
Ah, I will probably go before going to the concert like the day before on my way to the hotel
from the airport.
hahahaha
If anyone from the East like the tri state area is going it would be cool if
we went together...either way.

well by that time the artist list releases, it's be around March - April.
If you want good seats, obviously they're gonna be sold out (since Pool and Garden are already sold out now? I believe).

But if you don't mind Super Seats, then I geuss it'll be fine for you. Super Seats aren't that bad. It's not a bad view, as long as you got a camera.
