Philadelphia Phillies Tickets And Seating Chart
Saturday, November 28, 2009

When it comes to National League Championships, the Philadelphia Phillies are no strangers. More than just team champs, the Philadelphia Phillies second basement Chase Utley recently won the National League Silver Slugger Award for the fourth time. Each of the last four seasons since 2009, Utley, 30, has taken home this much-deserved recognition. Utley is in line behind Ryne Sandberg, who took home the award five years in a row, and Mike Schmidt who won it a total of six times (not consecutively). Utley's 2009 runs, on-base percentage, slugging percent and extra-base hits put him ahead as leader of the pack for all National League second basemen.

Most won't argue that the Philadelphia Phillies gave the 2009 season more than a good run and although fans were disappointed that they didn't take the world series, it was the kind of ball playing that made each swing of the bat a pleasure to watch. The Philadelphia Phillies opened the World Series against the Yankees and nearly shut the competition out on October 28, 6 to 1. Game 2 was not as tight and the Yankees slipped by the Phillies a couple of times to walk away with a win, 3 to 1 Yankees.

League Championship Series games found the Philadelphia Phillies winning the series 4 to 1 during the month of October with an 11 to 0 shutout against LAD on October 18. If you were able to get to any of these great games in person, it was nothing short of fabulous to see this team eat up the competition time and time again with only one loss in Game 2. After some much deserved rest and relaxation, fans can expect to see the Philadelphia Phillies back in action for Spring Training in Clearwater, Florida starting in March. Those who want to see the team in the on deck series in Philadelphia will have to wait until April 2.

Citizens Bank Park is the home of the Philadelphia Phillies and this venue is nothing short of amazing. Whether you're looking for dazzling views, spectacular amenities, an intimate array of features or just a ballpark experience that takes your breath away, getting to Citizens Bank Park is a must for one or more of the great home games featuring the Philadelphia Phillies. Located at One Citizens Bank Way in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, gates open 1-1/2 hours prior to the start of the games held on Monday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday games are available for seating 2 hours prior and if you're a diehard fan who wants to enter the park sooner, use the left field gate and get in 2-1/2 hours before the game starts.

Seating choices for Citizens Bank Park offer options to suit every taste and budget type. Not everyone wants the prime experience of the Diamond Club or Hall of Fame Club premium seating but these options bar none. On field level, infield, baseline and outfield seating provides reasonably priced action-packed views you're sure to appreciate. The club level offers a wide variety of choices for those who want action that include spectacular views and easy access to concessions. This level includes two pavilion levels, two pavilion deck levels, arcade and scoreboard porch. The terrace level is very economically priced with two levels and two deck levels of seating options. Ashburn Alley is the very least expensive seating option for those who appreciate the height and overall view obtainable from the rooftop bleachers.

Citizens Bank Park offers exciting ballpark adventure for fans of all ages, from the Phanatic Shoe Slide for children ages 4 to 9 to guests of all ages running the bases to Sunday Starting Nine which allows randomly selected children under 14 to stand on the field with the starting nine Phillies during the National Anthem.

Now is a great time to get your Philadelphia Phillies Tickets for the 2010 season. All of the home games will be played at the fantastic Citizens Bank Park

Ticket America Has Your Bruce Springsteen Concert Tickets

The year 1949 was a great year when it comes to the birth of a superstar. It was the year that Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen, affectionately known to fans around the world as "The Boss" was born. A native of New Jersey, Springsteen has been thrilling crowds around the world since 1972 with his signature sound of songs with heartland rock.

Widely appreciated for his poetic lyrics and Americana tunes that are infused with sentiments about New Jersey and his particular brand of rock, there are very few people who haven't heard of The Boss. Often, just the first few bars of one of his songs and you find yourself singing along with the lyrics because his feel good music reminds you of how great it is to be an American. Springsteen has performed with the E Street Band, Miami Horns, Seeger Sessions Band and Steel Mill and if you appreciate nothing else about Springsteen, you know that he puts heart and soul into his songs.

Strong expressions run across his face in some of the intense ballads he performs and you feel the rhythm that makes you get up and dance in his party rock-style tunes and rousing anthems. He draws us into deeply emotional stories in song form and we relate because the tunes could easily have been written about us. His albums Born in the U.S.A. and Born to Run are the prime examples of how well Springsteen takes the American struggle of daily life and puts it to music in a grandiose style that you can't help but appreciate. Born in the U.S.A. made Springsteen one of the most popular artists of the 80's. With an Academy Award, 19 Grammy Awards and 2 Golden Globes, Springsteen has sold more than 195 million records around the world.

Continuing in the tradition that exhibits the passion and love for music that is a trademark, Springsteen and the E Street Band took to the road in March this year with an opening concert at the Convention Center in Springsteen's hometown of Asbury Park, New Jersey. For hours, fans were delighted as Springsteen and the band blazed out more than 21 songs. Audiences across the country and around the world have been enjoying outstanding performances in venues since then and the excitement continues.

With just a few more opportunities that still like ahead for this tour, if you haven't had the chance to witness Springsteen in action, you simply must get your hands on some of these tickets before they are all gone. It's the last leg of the tour but as the saying goes, often they save the best for last. If you're thinking about getting in on the best of the Springsteen tour for 2009, you're in luck because this award winning singer can still be seen at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; the Sommett Center in Nashville, Tennessee; the 1st Mariner Arena in Baltimore, Maryland and the HSBC Arena in Buffalo, New York is the last planned stop for the tour.

If you've ever had the chance to see Springsteen performing live, you know there's nothing that compares to witnessing this awesome performer. The E Street Band makes you get up and dance because you simply can't resist the heart pounding percussions and guitars. Springsteen is famous for grabbing the harmonica, telecaster and guitar and belting out the music you've come to love him for. If you haven't experienced this music live and in person, the opportunities are calling now and there's no time like the present to get your tickets and check out Springsteen for yourself.

Missing The Boss? There are still a few venues left on the 2009 tour. Ticket America has Bruce Springsteen venues. We have some of the best Concert Tickets available.

Ticket America Has Your U2 Concert Tickets
Tuesday, November 24, 2009

It's the concert people all over the world have been waiting for, the U2 350 Tour in 2010. The excitement is building in the air and if you've attended a U2 concert before, you know that this band is worth every cent you spend to get in on the live music, action and entertainment this Dublin band brings to the stage. If you haven't been to a U2 concert, there's nothing that compares to being in the audience and getting the acoustics feeds and witnessing the spectacular performances as Bono belts out some of your favorite tunes live, up close and in person.

Bono, Adam Clayton, The Edge and Larry Mullen Jr. are true performers when it comes to live stage events like the 360 tour that's already begun. Tickets began going on sale in mid-March for the European shows and quickly sold out in Milan, Amsterdam and Gothenburg. "We don't take anything for granted," Bono said about the sold out shows that were scheduled for Croke Parke in Dublin, "It's a very big deal for us to sell out our hometown at such speed..."

As you may already know, U2 has been making musical since forming their band during secondary school back in 1976 when they were still teenagers. Although they had no formal musical proficiency at the time, it didn't take long before the foursome had struck a deal with Island Records and released their first album. In less than 10 years, U2 begun being recognized as one of the world's top groups, particularly in live performances. With 12 studio albums under their belts and more than 145 million records sold, U2 has won more Grammy awards than any other band with 22 to their credit. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2005 and making Rolling Stone's list of 100 greatest artists of all time gives U2 a repertoire most can't touch.

The 360 Tour began on June 30, 2009, is supported by the band's album No Line on the Horizon and is scheduled to run through October 3, 2010. That's plenty of time to get to one of these great events scheduled for stadiums around the world. The name selection for this tour is in sync with 360 degree audience configurations around the staging. Innovatively thinking, the banded decided to stream their performance at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California over YouTube which set a new single headlined attendance record in the U.S. If this is any indication of the great success this tour will be, you'll want to get your tickets before they're all sold out!

The design of architect Mark Fisher and designer Willie Williams may be setting the standard for concerts to come by many with their 360 degree configuration. The stage is in the center of the stadium and has a large 4-legged steel structure that houses the speaker system. The video screens are suspended above the stage in a cylindrical manner. Surrounding the stage is a circular ramp that has rotating bridges connecting it to the stage. General admission tickets will give fans the opportunity to get seats on the outside of the ramp along with the inside area between the ramp and the stage, close enough to feel the sweat fly!

Because of this 360-degree centered location, there is no front or back to the stage and the fans will have seating options around all sides of the stage. This progressive thinking allows for up to 20 percent more seating capacity. With a set list that includes such hits as "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", "Breathe", "The Unforgettable Fire", "City of Blinding Lights", and "Vertigo", fans will enjoy nearly 25 songs at this jam packed musical extravaganza.

Ticket America has your U2 360 Tour on sale now. Get them before theyre all sold out! The 360 Tour promises to be one of the most sensational events this band has ever given and getting great Concert Tickets like these is a breeze with Ticket America!
