Make arrangements with the people in the Chicago thread. Find someone to go with. Bundle up real well and get there at at least midnight. If you meet up with people, you'll have a good time. It's well worth camping in the cold for the spot you'll get.

I too was at the toronto show last night, we arrived at around 3:30pm on the day of the concert, and lined up at the GA line, when we started to go in, the man who scans the tickets, asked us if we wanted to go into the monster pit, and he gave us wristbands and we were able to get in, we ended up being pretty much right at the front of the stage!! i guess it was just pure luck! the other people around us who were also in the GA line did not get the monster pit wristbands :( maybe it was random selection? :) either way you will have an amazing time! the atmosphere is just incredible!! :)

Tell me about it. I have the exact same problems. I spend months stressing over the will call ticket. Now I'm stressing like crazy over the monster pit. Also when I'm nervous or excited for some reason my bladder seems to shrink. I can't even drink a cup or so of water or I will need to go to the bathroom repeatedly. I guess I won't drink more than 4 or 5 sips on concert day.

Don't be stressed guys! I was so stressed until I got in line. Then, you realize how amazingly organized it is. Security was spectacular. Will call is easy! You just go between 10-4 and get back in the monster pit line at 5. There is no need to worry!!! The staff is excellent!

What time did you get there? What number were you? How many people were in line at that time?

I got there at 5:30 at was number 160. People who got there at 7:30 got in! They let like 375 people! And we were all lines up across the street, then security came at 6 and joked around and told us that Gaga's team would be there at 8, and then they got there at 8 and told us about 10 at a time with a mega-phone that we were going to cross the street as we were escorted, and if you tried to walk across out of order or without them you would get DQed. Then, we got across the street (it was extremely organized) and we got our wristbands. They gave wristbands to everyone in line because there were a few no shows so people past the number 375 got in. We got back in line at 5. Then at 5:15 we got inside and then at 5:30 they took us into the pit. Everyone was going crazy. IT WAS AMAZING.

Thanks for the information. Glad to hear it's organized but 160 people at 5:30?! :eek: I had no idea that many people show up that early. I want to be front row in the pit lol.

Then if you really want front row either get there at midnight or just push through. Everyone was nice and don't mine if you moved your way through. I stood on the back left side of the pit. I could have been like third row from the front, but I liked where we went because when Gaga was back pout on the pit we were front row. And we always had a good view.

I can't get there until 5 the day of the show.

Okay good to know but no chance of getting noticed by her if you're in the back lol, even if you have a good view. Hopefully my show won't have quite as many people lining up so early.

Yes you can leave to go the bathroom.They give you a green wristband and there is an opening you just walk in and out, and on your way back people just have a flashlight or the band glows in the dark so they might just wanna see it real quick but they let yo back in dont worry :)

ok that's good to hear. But can u get back to the spot u were in?? or will u be stuck in the back...? :(

Girl you can get noticed! She looked at us, read our signs, and laughed. Plus all of the MTN kids were from the back.

Seriously, go early. I've met some amazing friends in lines. Like we made friends in the pit line this week! everyone tends to look out for each other in the lines, too. I don't regret camping at all.

I was in line with these two in 7 degree weather in Saint Paul and I agree with what they're saying now!
