Too bad those ATL shows are during the week. It's nice to get a little Southern love though

Nice! gonna go to the show in Houston.

Wonder what to do for Presale for Houston? cause the venue doesn't have a link? Wonder if it will be through live Nation? presale tix go on sale tomorrow according to the email.

cmm6734

I'm going to try and presale it for Houston....hopefully the link pops up before tomorrow morning.

I saw SG when they played the Forum a couple of years ago, kick ass! Especially since Mike came out and played during Superunknown and I was moshing with Dave Grohl! YES!!!!!!!!!!!

Newch91

Definitely trying for the Wallingford show.

Does anyone what the presale starts tomorrow?

IF YOU'RE GOING, do yourself a favor, get as close as possible so you can hear their amps over the PA.

It's been over 10 days and I still can't get over how bad it sounded in Oakland. Had a few more friends verify they couldn't make out a thing either, one even in the VIP section next to the soundboards. I just don't get it, been to soooo many loud thrashing rock and metal shows and have never had an experience like that before. And then I recall back in '11 in SF, how far out to either side they hung those PA stacks, how less than optimal that sound was too.

Don't get me wrong, MATT sounded awesome. He obviously gets his drums tuned in just fine -- different kit, and just so much more thunderous than his PJ kit. Sheer joy! Kim by himself was there, but distant, Chris's guitar was panned pretty far right away from me, but again, alone, you could hear the sound. And then Ben, I dunno. Pretty wild tone for a bass I guess, but when it's mixed in with the guitars, just ... mud. Mud mud mud.

I mean plenty of acts plays the same riffs on guitar and bass and you can HEAR them both, sure they combine and make a good crunch, but you can hear the guitar up there and the bass down there. There was none of that with Soundgarden. Just one big, loud SOUND. No distinction, everyone muddying up on top of each other.

And then Chris, well, he's gotta be a challenge with his four octave register, his quiet singing ramping up into those screams. Heard a bit of mic feedback during song 2-3. And yep, there it still is during the encores. Lame. But most of all, just couldn't hear him, waaaay too low in the mix.

And i just gotta conclude, THAT's the sound they're going for -- these guys are pros, they hire pros no doubt. I've heard worse out of small club opening bands, but not by much. They know how to mix albums, great sound on King Animal, you can hear each instrument just fine. You can do that live too.

They chose not to... So, my advice, get there early, get up on the rail and make sure those amps are as close to your ears as possible.

Thirty Bills Unpaid

Given what was said in the previous post... the Vancouver show's sound sucked. Ruined what could have been a great concert. If they want it to sound that way... yikes.

My guess is that one of their cousins is in charge of sound. He drinks heavily and needs a break. They are exercising patience with him even though the crowd must endure sound similar to that produced by stock 8-track stereos in Chrysler Cordobas.

Bad. Really really bad.

Does anyone have the presale password?? Would love to grab tix at the Tabernacle!

Agreed. I couldn't get 2 for GA. I got 2 tickets for Wallingford in section 204, row YY, seats 3 and 4.

At 10 sharp I was on, entered 2 for GA and it had nothing.

I think the fuckers at borgata held all the tix! I was quick and on a fast computer with ZERO tix available. Something's fishy.

Got two very distant orchestra tickets for Louisville. Had to keep re-entering for tickets for over ten minutes before I got anything but "no tickets available at this time." I was starting to figure that with the likely small percentage available for the "fan club" presale, and the fact that the password was easily accessible, there wouldn't be any available from minute one, but I kept trucking for a few minutes. Got stuck with Row MM of the orchestra (RR is the last row, and I'll be well under the balcony overhang, which starts before the end of the single alphabet), but, hey, I'm in the building for a small-venue Soundgarden show, so I won't whine too much.

I may look again during the public onsale to see if something better pops up and pass the MM tickets along, but I'll probably just stick with these and make the best of it. It's still better, distance-wise, than I'd have at most arena shows for bands, so how bad is it, really?
