Who all is going to this show? From what I saw on Twitter it looks like so far we have:
Me Jenny Charlotte Annie Liana JenK Mary
...and I think that's all. I have a feeling Jenna will be there though! Am I right?

I hate not being able to stand! I wish he would have a general admission show! I think we should definitely stand for the more upbeat numbers and he shouldn't have to tell us to stand!

Can anyone think of any way to boost ticket sales? I've been checking almost everyday since they went on sale to the public and the same seats are still available. I would hate to walk in there and the venue be half empty! Hopefully Matt has plans to promote it more on the radio or something. I've been tweeting the direct link almost everyday to get people to buy tickets. I know his show in August was almost cancelled due to low ticket sales so I'm a little worried. I haven't heard anything about this one being cancelled if they don't sell enough tickets but ya never know...
Here's the link if you guys wanna help spread the word! http://bit.ly/bVc3pX

Christina,
I don't have any suggestions, other than Matt promoting it more to folks in Michigan, which I expect he will do when the holiday weekend is over. But I wouldn't worry because they have probably already sold enough tickets to have the concert. He needs some ticket give-aways like for the Bay City concert. I don't know if that helps sell tickets, but it seems to generate excitement about the concert.

csprof,
Good points you made! I am hoping he has some promotion plans and/or ticket giveaways. I keep checking how many seats are left lol. There are more than half still available. Only the first 5 rows are full and then a few seats are gone from the other rows. I guess we'll see what happens

Christina,
I went and looked after your note last night, and it looks to me like he has sold a little less than half the tickets. I didn't exactly count, but estimate that the venue has about 750 seats, and he has sold about 340 tickets. Is that what you're seeing? While it looks like he will have trouble selling out this show, it seems like ok sales to me for two weeks ahead of the concert.
I bet your tweets are tempting at least a few people to want to go. Aren't there always a few people who decide to go in the last week?

Yeah, that's what I was seeing.
And I don't know about others deciding at the last minute. I hope so!

Here's the first video I've seen from last night. This is pretty cute, and Christina must have been dying.
Haha a few of us were dying. Yeah, that's me laughing in the beginning and saying "I told him to do this song!" lol
Also, Mary's video is better b/c it has the funny banter at the beginning (making fun of Davy and Sam) Also, you can hear me, Charolotte, Liana, Jen, Steph, and probably Holley scream at about 0:32 and then Matt looks at us and laughs haha. It was AWESOME.
