Tickets for the Gulf Show...

Bon Jovi, Paisley set to play Gulf show
City changes distribution site for concert tickets
The crowd is ready. All they need now is tickets. However, that will change come Saturday.
"The Foley and Gulf Shores are exactly how we publicized it. The concern was in Orange Beach that they felt with the number of people that would respond to this the Sportsplex would be a better place. More easily to take the capacity that we think is going to happen," said Mike Foster with the Gulf Coast Convention & Visitors Bureau.
The Orange Beach Sportsplex, the Erie Meyer Civic Center in Gulf Shores, and the Foley City Hall are all ticket locations for the Concerts for the Coast event. Foster said the three locations will split an allotment of 4,500 tickets per concert. The two concerts that weekend are Bon Jovi on Friday night and Brad Paisley on Sunday. Each person is only allowed two tickets for one of the concerts, not both. However, there is a way around that.
"If you take your husband or wife, or best friend, and you stand next to each other one of you could get two for Bon Jovi and one of you could get two for Brad Paisley. It's possible to do that, just find a friend," Foster said.
Foster said there were some concerns with tickets to the Jimmy Buffett concert a few months back, and this time they wanted to do things a little differently.
"What happened is that we put it on Ticketmaster, so when it turned on, it turned on everywhere," Foster said.
Tickets for the Bon Jovi and Brad Paisley concerts will be available in all three locations starting at 8:00 a.m Saturday. All you need is a photo ID and maybe a little patience as you wait in line.
Kids 10-years-old and younger don't need a ticket to attend.
