Did you actually ask a question?

Oops, yeah I forgot to ask my question. Are any of these seating choices a bad idea. I'm thinking row a for Phantom might be to close.

I never understand why people ask these types of questions after they've already purchased the tickets. If you're concerned, why don't you ask for input and then buy them?

I agree...unless you got them as a gift and were curious, why bother asking? You're stuck with them unless you go through the trouble of reselling them and buying new tickets.

Maybe I'm wrong, and frankly I don't have a clue what city we're even talking about here, but I got the idea that the poster bought these three shows as a series and now can pick which performance and pick the seats. No?
Aren't there a lot of theatres across the country called The Orpheum?

I thought that too, but the post says "I just got my tickets today."

Sorry, I even missed the rows mentioned. What does that mean? Row F may sound good, but if it's the extreme end seat of a side section behind a post without a full view of the stage. . .

There are a lot of different theatres around the country called The Orpheum. Asking if you have good seats at an Orpheum theatre is like asking if I got good seats to a show at a nederlander theatre on Broadway. It would be helpful if you were more clear about which Orpehum theatre. Just like it would be helpful if you were clear about which Nederlander theatre on Broadway you were talking about.

Argh, sorry It's the Orpheum theatre in MN.

I have heard that row A is bad for phantom of the opera, this of course after ordering my tickets.

Without the original post, my head was spinning.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

You created an entirely new thread, just for your question, but forgot to ask it?

Oh boy.

TDH: The poster originally asked the question, but edited it due to the "overwhelming" response.
