Behind the Stage
-
For some shows at Madison Square Garden, seats will be sold behind the stage. These seats will have a view to the stage, but fans purchasing these tickets should understand there will likely be some obstructions to seeing the show. Fans purchasing tickets behind the stage should be aware of the following: Content or visuals projected on screens may be out of view Portions of the stage may be obstructed by lighting or equipment The performance will face the other direction Majority of the show will be looking at the performer's back Difference by Level The views from behind the stage differ greatly by level at Madison Square Garden. Those seated in the 100 level, 200 level, and Madison Club will have the clearest views of the stage. The window out to the stage in the 400 level is greatly restricted by the height of the level and overhang above. It is the least desirable location behind the stage for this reason. The 300 level balcony seats have clearer views, but views are steep to the stage due to the height. Fans with a fear of heights might want to stay away.
Blue Seats

Affectionately known as the Blue Seats, 400 level seating at Madison Square Garden is only for the most diehard fans. These are almost always among cheapest tickets available, making them popular among fans who live and die with their team. Each section contains fewer than 7 rows, though you'll want to avoid being in rows 5-7 if at all possible due to obstructions. One benefit for Rangers games is that these seats are located on the side of the ice the team will attack twice. Views to the other side of the ice will be much more difficult, however. For basketball games these seats are located behind the basket. Fans choosing these seats are more likely choosing them for the price than the views.

Went to my first PHISH New Year's Eve show and was DEVASTATED to see that my view was completely obstructed. The ticket was not marked obstructed. The whole idea of going to MSG on New Year's Eve is to be able to see all the festivities from your seat. This was not the case in Section 415, Row 7, Se...
