See updates on Meet and Greet times below (2/16/2008)
Do I have to purchase Friday (4-11) and Saturday (4-12) concerts
separately?
Yes. For security reasons, each nights transactions must be
separate. You will need to make a separate purchase for each
night's tickets. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
What if I need a hotel or
airline arrangements?
Check the bottom of the
ticket purchase page, you will find links to assist you. While we
have secured special hotel pricing for RushTour attendees, we have no
other affiliation with the hotel or the other travel services listed.
You must make your own arrangements with each service.

available?
See
link at bottom of ticket purchase page. Follow the instructions on
that link.
What should I do if the ticket page says that tickets are sold out?
We recommend that
if you have been unable to purchase tickets, check back. Sometimes
blocks of reserved seating tickets are released close to the event
date. Availability is subject to change.
Are my tickets open seating or reserved seating?
All seating is
open seating by section. We suggest bringing a jacket or some like
non-valuable item to reserve your seat when buying food, merchandise, or
using the restroom facilities. Security is not responsible for lost or
stolen items, but security will be posted to provide the safest
environment possible. Seats can not be reserved by people in attendance
for people who have not arrived at the concert event.

Yes, all ticket
sales are final.

No, they are not.

You can purchase
up to 8 tickets at a time. If you wish more tickets, you must re-enter
the site and begin over. If your group exceeds 20 people, we suggest
contacting the group sales manager.

having trouble purchasing my tickets online?
Click the
link at the top of your page that says "contact us." We will be happy
to help you immediately.
Can I bring a camera to the guaranteed Meet & Greet?
We believe that
cameras will be allowed for the guaranteed Meet & Greet times, but check
back closer to the concert to confirm this information.
Can I bring something for Dog and the bands to autograph?
Beth and DOG have
asked that you purchase items when you arrive. Outside
items will not be permitted when checking into the venue. You can
advance purchase a RushTour T-shirt prior to your arrival for Band
signing. It's just $10 prior to concert, or $15 at the concert. When you
arrive present your email receipt to pick up your shirt.
Will all proceeds from the concert be donated to Mooseheart Child
City & School?
A portion of the
proceeds will be donated to Mooseheart, just because its a favorite
organization of The RushTour. It is our hope that others will see the
value of Mooseheart's work, and consider becoming monthly donors or make
a donation. We hope our choice to utilize Mooseheart campus' will
increase public awareness for a worthy cause.
Who is Mooseheart?
Mooseheart's beautiful 365
acre main campus is home, school, and community to more than 200
socially and economically disadvantaged children. Their work in
restoring lives is nothing short of miraculous.
Children and teens come to Mooseheart from any situation in which
they're lacking a secure home, be it the death or disability of a
breadwinner, an unsafe neighborhood or living environment, or a
situation in which grandparents have been forced (again) into a
child-raising guardian role. Children and teens are generally admitted
to Mooseheart as old as 14 or 15, but in recent years Mooseheart has
taken in babies as young as five weeks old. When Mooseheart admits a
child, it does so with the agreement that despite the age, that child
will be cared for until his or her graduation from Mooseheart High
School. When a child graduates with grades of "B" or better, the Moose
organization has been able to provide scholarship funds equal to four
years of tuition with room-and-board at a state university. To learn
more about this organization, go to
www.mooseheart.org.
Where is Mooseheart Child City and School?
The Mooseheart Field house is between
the cities of North Aurora and Batavia, Illinois off of Route 31. See
the events page for a printable map.
When do doors open and how long is the concert?
Friday nights concert begins at
7:00pm. The doors open at 5:30pm. Family night should conclude between
10-10:30pm.
Saturday night's concert begins at 6:00pm. Doors open at 4:30pm. Rock
night should conclude between 10-10:30pm.
What time should I arrive for Guaranteed Meet and Greet?
(UPDATED 2/16/2008)
Check back for final details. We are
awaiting Duane's and Beth's arrival schedule to set the times.
Scheduled time will probably be (but is subject to change):
Friday: 4:30-6:30pm
Saturday: 3:30-5:30pm
Meet and Greet has
been changed to accommodate DOG's travel plans. Meet and Greet
will now be held immediately after DOG's presentation. Early
arrival at the concert is no longer necessary. Doors open Friday
4/11 at 5:30pm and Saturday 4/12 at 4:30pm.
Can I meet DOG if I don't get a Guaranteed Meet and Greet pass?
DOG will do everything he can to meet
as many people as possible. Because of travel plans and TV interviews,
we can't guarantee that everyone in line will meet him, but he will make
every attempt possible to meet as many of his fans as he can. Best
advice is to purchase the Guarantee pass as soon as possible.
Does Meet and Greet include Beth, his wife?
Yes, the guaranteed Meet and Greet
includes Beth's presence. We'll have to play it by ear for extended
Meet and Greet times, because we have not spoken to her concerning additional
time. My guess would be that wherever Duane is, there
she will be too. Check back for further confirmation closer to concert
date.
Is this event appropriate for children or youth groups?
Absolutely. RushTour events never
contain inappropriate material or language. These events are designed
so that all can enjoy.
How long will Dog speak?
Duane plans on speaking 45 minutes to
the audience, but DOG speaks from his heart so he is not held to a timed
script. He has been known to speak longer when encouraged. He will
introduce his wife Beth, and she will probably say a few words to the
crowd before leaving as well.
Will DOG bring merchandise for me to purchase?
Yes. Dog the Bounty Hunter
merchandise will be available for purchase.
Am I allowed to bring food into the venue?
No food is allowed, and will be thrown
away during check-in. This facility has full concessions capability for
your enjoyment including hot food, candy and beverages. No
alcoholic beverages will be available at the concert.
Will there be security at the door?
At events this large, security at check
in is a must. Be sure to bring your printed receipt to get approved for
entrance. To avoid disappointment, delays and inconvenience, arrive no
later than 30 minutes before concert start time.
