Did anyone buy tickets for the Columbus Ohio show? I got mine today. It will be my first AKUS concert!

I got mine yesterday too. You'll love AKUS in concert. This will be my third concert not including the four times I've seen her at the Opry.

jakub,
I saw Alison at the Opry in October at the 79th birthday celebration. This will be my first "real" AKUS concert. The only cd of hers I own is the Live Cd and I have it about worn out. I can't get enough of it.
Did you have good luck getting seats? I purchased mine online at 10:03 and got Section 128.

I am yet to get a ticket but I will also be going to the Concert. It will be my 4th time seeing her in concert, I saw her at the GHM concert the Down from the mountain concert and at the IBMAs so i guess the last one really isnt a concert. I cant wait to see her do the entire show instead of just a few songs. She is amazing. I cant wait for the concert now I cant believe its so far away. I am so excited! ;D

Amy, I was also at the Birthday Bash with Natalie from the boards. I purchased my ticket around 6 or 7 that evening and got section 124 I think....might of been 127? Anyway, not too bad of a seat from looking at the seating chart....although my front row seat in Knoxville was better! I can't complain though...I love AKUS. Keisha, You'd better get your tickets soon! They're selling fast. I know here in Knoxville two shows sold out in just a few hours! Jen

I know the Cincinnati show is sold out becuase I tried to get tickets for it.
Jen, you live in Knoxville? Are you from Ohio?
That was my first time at the Opry, I am so ready to go back!

Amy, I was born and raised in Ohio, but I've lived in Knoxville for quite a while. The weekend of the concert I'll visit with my family. I've been wanting to go to another AKUS station concert this year, so the Columbus concert gives me a good excuse to go home! I haven't been back home much since school has been so crazy the past year.

Alright party people, I'll be at the Columbus show too. The Schottenstein Center is right down the road from my place. You're invited to my crib before and after. It's going to rock I assure you the AKUS show that is. Lets meet up or something at least.

Meeting up sounds like fun Lindsey! Do you have any suggestions for a good hotel near the Schottenstein?

Hey Amy, sorry it took so long to answer your question. Today I went by the venue and looked to see what hotels are out that way. There's a Red Roof Inn, and a Fairfield Inn. There's also a Holiday Inn nearby too on Lane Ave. Hope that helps you out some.

Hi all AKUS fans, I've been a huge fan since 2002 only (better late etc) and I just think the band is sensational. I'm from Ireland and I'm wondering if anyone knows will they be travelling to Europe. I've mailed the site but haven't got a reply. Seeing AKUS live is my ambition right now but if I must go the the States I suppose I will in the not too distant future.
Marvellous marvellous band.
Regards from Dublin, Ireland.

Freewheeler....welcome to the message board! I have no idea if AKUS will be traveling out of the states anytime soon. Sorry I'm not any help!

AKUSfaninOHIO, thanks for the welcome, I've been looking for this type of site for a while, hardly anyone I know is aware of just how damn awesome my favourite band is so it's good to "meet" some other fans.
Doug, thanks alot for that info, I guess I'll just keep logging on to the site for tour dates and hope they head for Europe, meantime I'll keep enjoying the albums in my car.
Talk to yiz all soon folks, thanks again.
