so - I am off work and will be going to TTB 10/07
seat choices are
orch left (way on the side)
loge left (2 seats off the wall)
lower balcony left (not the very left, one section off the left)
upper balcony center

suggestions?
thanks

thanks
I know the seating plan
I'm curious which of the above choices would be better in terms of site lines and sound

I typically like the vibe in the Orch. I saw Jackson Browne in Orch 4, Row H and they were surprisingly good seats, given they were so far off center. Having said that, for TTB, given the options you have, I'd give serious consideration to the lower Balcony for the price ....and put the difference into my food and beverage bucket ....

Hard to go wrong at the Beacon in any section. I would pass on Upper Balc over the other choices and reference the chart for specific seats and how close to the aisle you are - I personally don't like to be smack in the middle of a row in case I want to run and grab a beverage. I am Row A lower Balc on the 5th for TTB and I like these seats to see the whole big band putting out their sound.

As for as
line of site and sound,
Always preferred the loge,
Hard to beat row A ,B, C in the Loge,

been on the floor which was ok,
never have been
in upper or lower balcony, Row A or B would probably be
cool in lower or upper Balcony,..........enjoy the Show !

I agree about the loge, but that isn't an option here. Forget about upper balcony. The upper and lower balconies are really the same except the lower is the front part and the upper is the back part. It really depends on the row number, but with the info you've given I'd opt for the lower balcony.

if you're sitting in orchestra, do not sit in a seat underneath the loge. that is my only reco. the sound gets muffled when you're underneath there.

other then that, i think lower balcony is wonderful.

the loge and orchestra seats were very close to the wall.
the lower balcony seats were actually the last row of the lower balcony
so - I took 2nd row of upper balcony (row G), right on the center aisle - not much higher than the lower balcony seats actually.
I'm psyched
