wow it seems like a lot of people are going to buy the garden boxes... I was too, but none of my friends wanna go! And after reading the replies, I won't be able to get one box for myself, plus that's really lame anyways. Well, we'll see.

Oh, and....
Does anyone know how fast these tickets sell? *sighs
I was looking at air fares and they look pretty decent. I'm going to be spending like five hundred dollars if i go. But it sounds well worth it...
LisaFace
So I have a little info about BoA to you BoA fans...
She actually has an up coming tour in 08
and It's going to run from May to June.
One of her concerts are scheduled on May 16 2008
So I guess that gives us almost no hope for BoA This year
which really sucks but at least I saw her last year =]

We might have a little tinsy winsy bit of hope since none of her concerts are actually on the day of the Hollywood bowl so lets all hope she makes it =[[. I wouldn't mind at all seeing her again!

lol seriously this is getting confusing.

So it means you CANNOT buy 1 or 3 tickets for the garden seat?
you Must buy 2 or 4etc... ONLY?


Yep, has to be an even body count of 2,4 or 6

QUOTE (geekazoinks @ Jan 19 2008, 02:35 PM) *
if you wait to buy tickets, then yeah, all the good ones will be out. plus, the korea times aren't that dumb to feature un-popular singers. they always usually get good ones.


I agree, at first I was a little upset about the no reservations but I know for sure that I'll like a few of the artists.

Soo, can anyone tell me how the Super Seats are? Like how far do they seem from the stage? Or where are the super seats in this picture:



I barely found out about the music festival last year and I missed it because nobody wanted to go with me. So I'm determined to make it this year! Especially since I missed Big Bang, Super Junior, and Epik High last year. T__T

The Super Seats is right behind the box seats behinds the green bush plant separator. I wouldn't say the view is totally horrible, its pretty good. Anything behind it is kinda bad.

yea the super seats are behind the bushes. which arent bad at all haha. i sat there last year and i was pretty surprised that it was still good. however if you get seats behind those... the artists would just look really small. haha my bad. i kinda forgot my seating areas tongue.gif but yea.. LisaFace is right about the seats xD sorry if anyone misunderstood x]

however there are like 2 big screens on the side of the stage so you can always look there if you want close ups :]

No the seats right behind the bushes are Terrace Boxes, the seats right behind Terrace Boxes middle center is the super seats. The reason they call the center part super seats is because its the only area up there with the "comfortable" seats which is why the middle 3 sections are more expensive then the ones to the left and right of them, anything to the left and right or behinds the Super Seats are all wooden benches.

last year i heard wilshier grand hotel like the other people said ahah. im thinking that they would stay there again because thats where they usually stay.
and about looking at the back.. haha not really i mean most of the time the artists stay on the main stage and sing and dance. although when they do go on the extended stage you might just only see their backs ahah. but i figured one bad thing about pool circle seats was that it would be very crowded haha. there are a lot of people around you trying to reach the stage and sometimes there are security gaurds always blocking your way from the artists. i think the best seats are just the garden box because its actually alreayd really close to the stage and its a really good view~ :]


oh i see..thanks fo da info!^_^

uhm. i think the tickets sell out pretty fast. me and my friends were going to get garden box last year but we couldnt cuz it was sold out. so instead we got the bench seats which were actually pretty good too. haha. and um i dont really think you would be able to touch their hands cuz it is like more than 10 feet away from the stage though ahah. unless an artist did what big bang did last year and like went on stage by going through the garden box seats and the pool circle seats then yea you might be able to~
but yea i agree. im not sure can i go this year because i dont know the list of artist yet coming.. but i dont think garden box tickets would still be on sale on march.. maybe you can try but there are also other ppl that mite be selling them on soompi also so you can always check the thread...

but omg i realized the prices kinda went up this year. i remembered that the section i sat in last year was only $50 and now its $80.. O_O and i think other secitons went up.. oh well. cant wait for the list of artist to be up soon~ :]

pandadeath
Ah, thank you everyone for answering!... I think I'll aim for those seats so I won't be totally broke this year. x]

Also, one more question for now... How fast do these tickets sell? ^^

Gah! I wish I can go. T-T But I don't think I can since my father would think it's a waste to fly all the way over there and watch it. XD

They weren't bad for how much they ended up costing us. I would much rather have garden because you get a box to yourself so you don't have to worry about people getting up and down all night long (I was on the end of a row so it was a tad bit annoying).

Thank you for your input~! Ugh, I want Garden so bad, but my friend doesn't want to pay that much when she doesn't know who the artists are... And she's the only one who would go with me. >.<

Tell her it's worth it to buy the good seats now because an artist she's really excited about might come, and then you will be stuck with bad seats sweatingbullets.gif

Really though, I thought that I only wanted to see Super Junior last year but ended up loving the rest of the line-up. Totally worth it to buy now.
DBSG[=
i have a question..when you purchase the tickets do they tell you your seats or do they tell you later on?

^ you tell them what seat you want and they sell you the ticket (:

thanks for answering my questions ^^

if you buy garden tickets for 2 people, will your seats be set back farther than the people who buy 6 seats for garden boxes?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v325/mai...er/DSC00093.jpg
^ in that picture, are the seats behind the silver thing garden seats? (:
that's where i wanna sit, right in front of the extented stage ^^ haha,
btw, the black thing is the extended stage, correct?


SO HYPED FOR THE CONCERTT<33
haha, im keeping my fingers crossed for big bang to come.
DBSG[=

yep, when i ordered last year they send me a copy of my tickets to my email and it tells you where you are seated. and when you get to the concert the people there will show you where your seats are.

haha your welcome :] and i can answer your next question ahha
im not sure about buying the seats but yes. that black thing is the extended stage and the silver thing is sorta like a divider and the artists sometimes go and walk on those things too :]
and yea the garden box are behind the silver divider thing :]
BigBangLuv
Omg again?!
Ugh I so wanna go again this year
I went last year and it was so fun!
But if I go this year ill probably be on my own
because my sister clearly told me that she didn't want to go
next year with me since shes in a process of moving in may =[.

wtf the price went up for pool circle =[... lame!
I had garden seats last row... they were alright
I could see the artists well.
Miss Bouakham
gah, i really want to buy good seats for my sisters and i right now but i don't want to take the risk in case the artists i'm obsessed over don't come (and that's a very small list... sad.gif )

but then if BigBang comes again...and i didn't buy good seats, i'd be really depressed...

>____<
i don't know what to do!
i wish they already have the artist list before selling the tickets! sad.gif

Yep just called them...

I don't even know who's going to perform.

QUESTION:

So i read in here that we get to pick our seats. When buying tickets over the phone, what do i say to specify the seats i wanted? like if i want garden box seats for 4 people...do they just pick any garden box with 4 seats for me?
--joyful.
^ I think it's random, you can request for seats, but it just really depends on who has ordered already, no guarantee.

i called korea times yesterday and they said we can't choose which seats we exactly want.
it really sucks : (
monicaaaa
^ aw...that sucks. thanks for letting me know.


besides pool circle and garden box, are the terrace and supper seats the next best thing?
chrissatinee
ANOTHER QUESTION:

so i know that garden seats you have to buy an even amount of tickets.
what about for other seats? like super seats or terrance seats? do you have to buy an even amount of ticket too?
kayla.
QUOTE (helennn @ Jan 19 2008, 07:09 PM) *

Yeah. I sat front row garden seats last year and they're pretty nice. Cause no one is technically in front of you (except pool) but even when pool is standing you can still see the stage.

I think you have to buy it in even amounts for Terrace too because they are also boxes.
--joyful.
I just talked to my friend. She bought tickets in MARCHish/APRIL last year, and still got front row garden. I'm amazed haha.

My other friend was in pool last year, and she had lots of fun interacting with the stars, specifically Epik, FTTS, Eru..etc. when they walked down the extended stage and the wall seperating pool from everything else.
13miracles
^ thanks that friend for me lol <3

this is the view of front row garden seat...pretty clear...i think i zoom in a little bit
I took like ~450 pictures (of Super Junior) and thanks God that I have front row so the quality is good <3
and the next morning my hands is sooooo hurt because I only use 1 hand to hold and click, and my camera is heavy
great experience though^^ i wish Suju come out last....the picture i took when all the artists come out at the end look much more nice with all the light T_T


you can click here to see the pics I took...I only up the pics that good and it's only Suju pictures...I have epik bb and other as well but i dont have it in my laptop right now...

guest password is forever13

im excite for this year : )


v i'm regret that i that time i didnt know how to use that camera much, now i figured out that it can get better quality T_T
smile-jw
^ Wow, thats a pretty amazing camera you have there. :D All my pictures were soo blurry, and it was the most recent canon too. ._. nvm, its just my lame photography skills. -_-

I'm planning on getting garden (fangirl domination, unlike last year LOL.) , but I still have financial problems, so maybe not.
If I cant get garden, Ill get the benches next to terrece. Im just going to HB 08 no matter what. xD
BigBangLuv
So i'm pretty much 100% sure I'll be going alone
since a lot of my friends aren't really into kpop music like I am.

Anyone in need of one more person? I'm looking to get Pool Circle or Garden Box seats.
BANGiN_Ci
i been reading through the pages.
nd i'm very new to this
like going to the HB for the korean musical festival.
nd i'm VERY HAPPY!!!
i can't believe i miss the one last year, which is sad b/c i didn't hear about it nd i live in CA. hahha

so i call the # or buy the tickets online.
and i just go pick it up nd tickets are onsale on the 21st.
the list of artists doesn't come out yet until iuno when ? haha

but i have a question :

so no matter what tickets you get it must be an even # of people ?
like right when you order it or like arriving ?
or is that just for pool circle seats, garden box, and terrace box seats ?

OH & another question

OMG hopefullie my friend says YES & she can come with me ! haha even though she doesn't listen to KPOP! haha

2. $150 each person. Expensive isn't it.

It usually starts at 6 PM- 7 PM and it ends at 11 PM- 12 AM.

You buy the tickets, and KoreaTimes assigns you to a seat.
But they assign by "first come first serve", so you never know.

oh so about 4 to 6 hours ?

so if i buy tickets and my friend buys her ticket on her own like separate
that wouldn't be a good thing b/c we wouldn't be sitting together ? right ?
SOPHIIE
Garden box this year (:
I am really curious as to which artists will be performing!

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I RECOMMEND GETTING POOL TOO!!!!!!
imagine getting a view thats like twice as good as Hei Yan's pics... and i got garden seats like two years ago, and pool was SO much better. for garden, i got second row and the view wasn't as great as the view in pool circle.
and i think the part about interacting with the stars is true, because if you're in garden, you can't really do much except stay in the box, whereas in pool you can go up to the extended stage and touch them LOL. besides, you might get the worst garden seat ever since we can't choose our seats, whereas if you get pool, all the tickets are basically the same since you can just go up to the front later unless you get a really nasty guard in your pool.
and yeah, 50 more dollars may seem like a lot, but it may be worth it, no?? haha 175 bucks was worth it last year, so im sure it will be worth it this year as well :]]

so yeah, i think people should get pool circle and have a little soompi section there haha

EDIT--
yay i topped a page~ see this is a sign people should get pool LOL

OK! I'm looking for one more person that wants to buy garden seat tickets with me and two of my other friends. smile.gif) Anyone interested?
BigBangLuv
Omg I'm so excited for this!!
Hopefully I'll be able to to D;
Omg do you guys remember last year

some crap started falling over the hollywood bowl

It kept falling on peoples hair and mine as well!
I thought my hair was going to get caught on fire D;
if_U
i know most everyone wants a garden box i'm scared i might not get a good one! only if they let the first few people pick rrrrrrrrrrrrrr that really sucks but oh well what can we do?

oh and i have one question do they tell u on the phone what seat you get or is that only online?

also what do u guys perfere online ordering or phone line ordering?
