Looks like Mohegan Sun, CT is very close to be sold out...I was able to pull only single Standard seats, not 2 available together...don't know how many VIP and casino allocations though... Barclays Center, NYC - looks like at least 2/3 is sold, LA looks even better - I'm starting to agree the second show will be added there...Phoenix on the other hand is not looking too hot atm - I wonder if there is any local advertisement there... I didn't look at the rest of the venues ... I wonder how much the weather has to play in this? 112 in June you might be right... I decided not to go to PHX for that exact reason actually... on the other hand for the locals it would seem to be a good idea to do something indoors... well, still 5 moths to go...

Would love to keep an eye on Chicago, where I'm going. go to TM for your event and click on "BUY ON MAP" - it'll give you the seat by seat chart. Not all venues have it (as Patti pointed out before), but Chicago comes up with the map.

You said Vancouver does not have the map....but it does. Perhaps you need to go to Ticketmaster.ca rather than .com?
also, 720 US Dollar equals 937.69 Canadian Dollar

I will never understand how and why would anyone have any difficulty reading music notation...is it some form of dyslexia? after all it's the same as reading...even easier imo.... I can understand not being able to spontaneously take a sheet of music and play from it without any prep, especially something very complicated and fast - is THAT what they mean when they say "can't read music"?

I can not read music and never played an instrument...not a note. I never studied it. If by "difficulty reading music notations" means looking like this sheet of music below...I have no idea how to read it. It means absolutely nothing to me...I say embarrassingly! lol P.S. I am not dyslexic but I just have not been trained in the art of reading sheet music. So no it is not a form of dyslexia in my case.

If you can read it, it is easy. But if you can't it is hard. My mother also never learned to read music. Even though she can sing very well. She can see if she needs to go up or down though, but she won't be able to say if it's a c or a d. She also tried guitar lessons, but after 4 years she still couldn't play anything. She als tried the piano and flute, but she just couldn't get it to work. She doesn't have feeling for it. Even though she can dance and sing.

I suppose I was not clear... I am sure you could learn to read and understand the stuff you posted above after just several hours of study...

Perhaps you need to go to Ticketmaster.ca rather than .com? also, 720 US Dollar equals 937.69 Canadian Dollar I think she means...you cannot access ....choosing a seat by viewing what is sold and still available. (The way you can see the open spots versus sold seats....the option on the left.) It still opens only for computer selected choice, as I was trying to see open seats last night for Edmonton. The on stage seats were selling for approx. 1,575.00. In Edmonton.... Holy Moly eh! ...and assuming the Vancouver would be the same.

Not all venues have it (as Patti pointed out before), but Chicago comes up with the map. Also make sure you are on a device that uses flash or at least a browser, such as Puffin, that does. Otherwise you won't be able to see the seat map.

I read music but that doesn't translate to my fingers doing what I want them to do at the piano.
I have a hard time believing Adam doesn't read music AT ALL.
All those years in performing groups . . . the many hours of rehearsals . . . When one auditions for a 'show' and is cast, a copy of the dialogue and SCORE is handed out. The score contains the music, the interludes, the words as they are sung to the music, as it details your part in creating that magic. Maybe Adam didn't need the 'score' to assimilate his part in each musical theatre role. There is no doubt that he has a musical ear for nuance, blending, emoting, lending meaning to every note - that is totally Adam, totally unique, totally genius.
But, he also spent each year of high school singing in choir, in madrigal groups . . . I did the same; and part of a high school 'choir' curriculum is learning to read the musical part (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) which you are singing. That is what tells you when to sing, how to count the beats and measures, when to be silent, how the harmonies blend and connect . . .
I learned to do all this, but I still can't play the piano worth beans. Maybe Adam and I have something in common!!! LOL!
