    I hope I feel satisfied with my decisions come showtime. I sold both 10C singles (rows 21 and 36 floor). I was very very relieved to actually manage that. Now I have row 10 right between sec 119 and 118 for N1, and row 2 on the aisle between sec 105 and 106 N2 - that one I paid $289. Pretty decent seats... but for N2 i am getting the feeling that I could have easily done better for less of i had waited until next week. Frustrating. Although I am on the aisle, which is kind of a big deal for me.
    Also, I find it strange that the sections are all half one actual section and half of the next. Really weird.
    Yeah, it’s kinda messed up the way the sections start and finish. You need to switch the view to seating map to see exactly what/where you’re buying!

    Anyone have any guesses on the opening song for N1? Will they open Vancouver with new material for the first time since Riot Act?!?
    I could see both Scared of Fear or Upper Hand being good openers. I’m kind of hoping they just dive right into Waiting For Stevie. Putting all my N2 opener wishes, hopes and dreams into Who You Are 🙏

    Really enjoying the new album and look forward to hearing lots of it live however I'd love to hear one of the classic openers with
    Hard to Imagine and Wash at the top of my list!

    I haven't heard Hard to Imagine since 05 and Wash since '06, both would be amazing :)

    Looking at N2 and the lack of ticket sales I'm really curious how that one will play out. Will they make it epic? Use it as a show to stuff a few extra new songs on as a live rehearsal? Same as any other show? 

    I know a lot of times they seem to thrive off the energy and you have to wonder what the energy level will be with so many (currently) empty seats. 

    Also, I really want pit tix for this one!

    I'm guessing if it's still kinda empty in the 100 level come show day, a lot of people in the upper bowl will find their tickets updated automatically to lower bowl by TM. Usually what happens in that circumstance. Chances are it will fill up pretty nicely come show time though. 
  • Yeah TM really screwed a lot of people by dropping all those seats after the Presale. It was really well sold after the initial sale and then all those seats appear. Like how many shows do you see where the upper bowl is almost sold out but tons in the lower at the same price? It sucks for people who got shutout of the initial sale and evidently moved onto something else. Also sucks for those who spent above the standard ticket price initially on worse seats. All in all - TM sucks and is getting more shady for the average fan.

    These would be my first two choices for openers for these shows. I don't believe either have been played in Vancouver, maybe Wash but that would've been pre 98. Hard to Imagine is a top 5 song for me and I've never seen it live yet, so that would be incredible.

    I’m hoping they stick with the sit down/acoustic opening format from the last two years for the first 4-5 songs. I’ve heard a lot of my favorite songs that I wouldn’t have otherwise heard over the last two year during the acoustic opening portion of the shows- of the girl, NAIS, sleight of hand, parachutes, HTI, oceans, wash, and off he goes. Hoping they continue pulling out similar songs on this tour. That being said, it wouldn’t surprise me if they opened with a song from dark matter. I think upper hand could make an epic opener. I could also see upper hand being used in the way present tense has been used a few times over the past two years, as a transition from the acoustic portion of the show to the electric portion. Or better yet, upper hand into present tense to transition from the acoustic to electric portion. Either way, I’m looking forward to seeing how they incorporate the new songs into the setlists.

    I was hoping/predicting first song of the tour would be Of the Girl. This week I've really been thinking that the opening to Upper Hand will be their walk on music. I just don't know how that would work with Of the Girl.

    Of the girl is my favorite opener, so I’d love that. But I also think upper hand would be a great way to kick things off. 
  • Release or Long Road. Have seen 7 shows and got neither. Or something from Dark Matter.

    Who You Are would make an amazing opener.  Never been played in Vancouver :)
