omnis unless you have a huge and close crowd right behind you that will get captured by the omni's since they have the rear lobe the cards do not

what do you mean by "huge and close"? they usually sell about 6,000-7,000 tickets for shows at this venue, if that helps.

If the reserved is 20 rows and the crowd will be rowdy, I would go with cards. If reserved is 40 rows and the crowd will also be reserved, go with omnis.

If you can run it high & split, omni's.  If it's a rowdy crowd cards.

about 40 rows reserved. i don't think the crowd will be too rowdy from recordings i've heard from earlier on the tour. a little hooting and hollering, but not too bad.

Can you be sure they will let you run high?  I was shot down at one of those outdoor amphitheater things because seating was sloped and people behind me were bitching.  I usually run cards or hypers for everything because I am stubborn and poorly informed.

stealthing the show, so the only way i can run high is if i grow a couple more feet.

[rsimms3]

Definately cards.
