Quite a few times.
Most memorably, I saw jazz trumpeter Christian Scott in Chicago a few years ago and sat front and center.
It was kind of an odd venue, and tickets didn't sell well, nor was the show well promoted. I found out about the show (which was about half a mile from my house) a few hours before, and went to the box office to see if any tickets were available. I asked for the best they had, and it ended up being front row, center seat. Awesome.
