I'm not really a concert goer, so I have no idea which seats are best, etc., especially in a large arena. Based on this layout, is section 123 or 111 a good place to watch (row in the 20's), or would section 106 or 128 be better? Many of you have been to the Q, so perhaps you can provide some insight.

dlazz, fuck off.

I sat in section 103 I believe for AC/DC a few years back. It fucking rocked.

Hope this helps.

My wife and daughter sat in a similar section to 111/123 for Taylor Swift at Nationwide a few years back, and they seemed to enjoy it. I just don't want to purchase tickets that are behind the fucking performance.

I bet ya loved it.

Do they even sell tickets behind the stage? Been to one at NWA and some at teh Nutter center and they dont even have seating behind the performance

Can't speak for Nationwide, but the Nutter Center isn't really built for that. Even if they wanted to have seats in the rear, they'd only sell a handful more tickets.

A fine venue, nonetheless

yeah, Nutter Center is a good venue. Only thing I saw at NWA was TSO and they didnt have seats behind it.

So would 123 or 111 be bad spots?

I wouldn't want to sit there.

I usually look for something 1-2 sections back from the stage, lower level.

Not available, at least not on their website. The Q website is awful for ordering. I'd like to see the sections that have tickets together (like stub hub), but they don't let you choose between sections.

Try Ticketmaster. You'll get bent over, but they might have different sections

The pricing on the Q's website is much better than anywhere else. Blows them out of the water. I can get 6 tickets for $70 a piece, and that is their most expensive.

If those are your 4 options, 128/106 for sure.

Dinner at GLBC before hand is required. The bar is in the basement.
Not sure for concerts, but for games, they have transport to and fro.

Hope this helps.
