Hannah Montana I got tickets!

[mom2mykids]

WOO HOO. Yesterday she was in Baltimore. I had read on here that people were able to get tickets online the day of the concert. So off to ticketmaster I went at about 11am. I kept checking adn checking. About 3:30 the site no longer let me seach for tickets and I thought "OH well" but about 4:15 I thought I would try once more and boom there they were. I was able to get 2 floor seats! I printed my tickets off and we jumped in the car to make the 7pm concert! I can't believe it! We had awesome seats! So don't give up hope, keep trying the day of the concert.

Just curious, how much were the tickets? Were they floor price or regular admission price. I'm hoping to get lucky when she is in Vegas!

I read that she did admit to using a body double.
This was on one of our local radio station's site:

Teenage singer/actress MILEY CYRUS has confessed to using a body double during concert performances so she has time to make costume changes.

The star was caught out by eagle-eyed fans who spotted a lookalike onstage during a recent show on the sold-out Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana Best Of Both Worlds tour.

But the 15-year-old's representative insists a double is a necessity of the performance, telling OK! magazine, "To help speed the transition from Hannah to Miley, there is a production element during the performance of "We Got The Party" incorporating a body double for Miley.

"After Hannah has completed the featured verse on the duet with the Jonas Brothers, a body double appears approximately one to two minutes prior to the end of the song in order to allow Miley to remove the Hannah wig and costume and transform into Miley for her solo set.

"Other than during this very brief transitional moment in the show, Miley performs live during the entirety of both the Hannah and Miley segments of the concert."

To me, I didn't make much sense to use a body double for appx 1 - 2 minutes. When we saw her in Cincinnati, she sang with the Jonas Brothers, then they stayed on stage while she "changed into" Miley Cyrus. They even said we are going to sing a couple songs while Hannah Montana changes into Miley Cyrus. Then they went off stage, we waited a short bit then Miley Cyrus came out. Since the Jonas Brothers sang while she was changing and we waited a few moments anyway, why use a body double for "appx 1-2 minutes"? I don't like the fact that she used one at all. I'm curious if anyone thinks a body double was used for more than "appx 1 -2 minutes".

This would be true...she did this at our show on Long Island. While I understand the necessity, I think she could have finished the song and let the Jonas Bros. do an extra song in the middle. I don't think the body double was used on any other song. It didn't make any difference to us.

I paid the floor price for floor tickets. I'm sure if I had looked for other seats I would have just paid whatever they were selling for. Here in Baltimore there was a range from about $25 to $63.

My DH told me about that and I did not see anytime where the other people on stage covered her with anything. So I guess if she did it she isn't doing it anymore. It was really obvious when she changed from Hannah to Miley. The Jonas Brothers came back out and played.

The Jonas Brothers did come out, they sang with her, she left, they kept singing and maybe even sang another song. Since I had heard about it just prior to the show I was on the look out. It wasn't a quick change so I think maybe there was no double last night.

We had a great time. Had I known my son wanted to go I probably would have tried to get them the day tickets went on sale but since he didn't say anything about it until a few days later! UGH, LOL I kept saying are you sure, really you want to go. I was afraid we would get there and he would say that its nothing but girls here I want to leave. He never said a word about being surrounded by girls....LOL. It has been forever since I have been to a concert! After we parked the dad near us, well turns out his daughter is friends with my older son so I got to act all "mom wacky" in front of her so she can go to school today and say "I saw your mom screaming and dancing" HAHAHAHA I told him as he was leaving for the bus all the dance moves I did.....he was so embarrassed! Truth is I didn't get too crazy, just let him think that

Congrats on getting the tickets! And floor seats to boot. Nice.

We got tickets the day of the show last month in Chicago, and I got a couple of shots of the "fake" Hannah. Our seats were BEHIND the stage. I didn't even notice, just thought she was making a weird face. My wife mentioned that it didn't look like her. Now with the news story, I realize this is the fake Hannah.

We are going again this Sunday to Milwaukee, with MUCH better seats. I'll be watching for the switch this time.

Great fake pic! I think that's her backup dancer, I think it would be fun to be fake Hannah.

Sorry, I mean extra extra song. I think they played two in the middle after the one with her...maybe they could have done one more. DD10 would have been happy for them to just stand there...she loves them more than HM. It did seem stupid to do the switch two minutes before it's over...I mean is that 2 minutes REALLY gonna make a difference.

The Jonas brothers couldnt play another song because the concert had to end by 9:35, they even cut 4 songs before the tour started because it was too long. At baltimore they didn't do the switch because too many people complained, thats why the house lights came on in between (i heard they did) and i think everyone should just leave miley alone, its like 1 minute of a song so that she can change her outfit, and its not like she used a double for the whole concert, and its not like ur getting ripped off! And the chorus of that song is the only pre recorded part of the entire show because its not like she can sing while shes changing. (this information came from her keyboard players blog so it is accurate)

The lights only came on after the Jonas Brothers and before Hannah came out. Not while she was changing. I'm not busting on Miley just stated that I didn't see a double.

yea the lights came on because they decided to not do the switch, and her hair wasn't done yet

they already played every song except Games and Hollywood I believe. (which are my 2 favorite songs) I didn't go but that is from my knowledge. I went to a Jonas Brothers concert after the Hannah one.

Oh, snap! I am NOT telling my daughter this!!

 

[Mickeyluver37]

Those pictures are hilarious! It's obviously not HM!!! We also went to the Baltimore show, and since this is the day the body double made the news, we were watching, but she obviously didn't try it that day. I don't think it's horrible, but I don't think it's at all necessary. I agree that we can deal without her being on the stage for 1-2 mins. Just curious, why does the concert absolutely have to end at 9:35? I couldn't believe she didn't sing True Friend- that's my favorite song of hers!!!!

I have no idea about ending times. I know in Cloumbia MD at the outdoor pavillion (Merriweather) I'm pretty sure concerts have to end at 11pm since there are residences near by and all the noise laws and such. I'll be seeing Toby Keith in Baltimore and his concert is scheduled to start at 7:30, not 7 like Hannnah's. I hope it goes longer than 9:30!
