Sort of an old guy here asking a fairly basic question ...

Wanting to see a band in Boston on Wednesday night - just me - so I need a single ticket...

Any advisable strategies on picking up a premium seat close to showtime?

Assuming these don't require an electronic transfer, then the best thing to do is get to the venue 1 hour before show time and hold up your index finger - indicating you need one ticket. Someone will find you.

Just make sure to hold up your middle finger.

I’ve been to 2 concerts this summer and bought the tickets last minute. One show was outside the gate. I bought $500 tickets for $50. The other was online 2 days before the show. Ticketmaster opened up a few seats and I scored 2 tickets in the pit for $100 each.
