Wow, that reminded me of the old days.

Got through on the phone at about 10:03
nothing on the website

Seats at the back of the floor.

See you at Easy Street at midnight the 2nd and the Paramount later that evening!!

so pumped....

    I am probably 0-for-10 with the hot commodity concert tickets...I feel like destroying something. There has to be another way at getting these tickets...
  • Unfortunately, TOOL is not accomidating at all when it comes to tix..

    PJ treats their fans SO much better.

    See you at the show(s)..

    I'm at work, but I had already gotten my Gorge tix at 9, and was all set to try for Tool at 10, but at 9fucking59 (I shit you not) my manager comes up to my desk asking about some work-related crap. By the time he's done yakkin with me, it's 10:03 and the damn thing is already sold out. Figured it'd sell out quick with only a 2800 capacity at the Paramount, so I knew I needed to on it at 10:00:01 to have ANY shot... Of all the goddamn times the boss has to talk to me on a Saturday (when it's dead as hell in here) it had to be then... FUCK!!

  • The Denver show was sold out at 10:01, I got shut out. Fuck, that's ridiculous! Now there are hundreds of scalpers selling them for $500 and up, so only the rick fucks who can travel can go, and i cant even attend a local show.

  • I had 3 computers going at 10:00 sharp and was only able to pull 1 single ticket to seattle...and I got lucky getting that one. I refreshed 8 zillion times with the standard "nothing available" screen before finally 1 seat in balcony showed up. I assume something pulled it but threw it back or something...I'm not sure but that was damn hard.

    Fuck I'm still pissed. I'm outta here at 2 and the boss hasn't conversed with me AT ALL since 10:03. Why the fuck couldn't he have come by 5 minutes either way? These small venue shows are gonna hard as fuck to come by anyway, just glad some of you were able to score something.. Christ, I was fucking stoked to be able to get PJ AND Tool on the same day, but it was not to fucking be.. Going to a BBQ tonight so I will vent my frustration on a few dozen Bud Lights.. Or maybe some Hefeweizen.. Or maybe some Absolut.. Fuck, tomorrow's gonna be rough.. :D

    I tried getting them at 10:03...needless to say it didn't happen. That SUCKS! Looks like we are in the same boat...

  • MERCY I just went to eBay and they are already going to $300 + for a pair. That's bullshit!

    yea people already had them on ebay BEFORE they were on sale!! WTF!!!?

  • Im thinking that some tickets must have been withheld by scalpers before the sale, cause the same person was selling 20 pairs all to the Denver show, all of them topping 300$. The show had a two ticket limit on ticketmaster, so either he has multiple credit cards, or some tickets were withheld ahead of time. This is such bullshit!

    Yeah, I wanted to slam my size 12 boot upside his head, but he's otherwise a cool guy and I kinda like being able to pay for shit like tickets to concerts, DSL for the computer, and oh yeah, my house payment and truck payment too.. :D

    And of course, there's the whole "using the work computer for non-work-related shit" thing that would have made my pissed offness moot..

    so you would get fired for sure then if you were caught? that would suck!!

    Innocent_Bystander - yea i think there definately has to be something going on with the scalpers, brokers and TM.. i'm sure they pay them off or something. This is just not right at all....

    fuckin bastards!!!!

  • same here in AZ, sold out before they were even available it seems -i'm not impressed with the make a quick buck before Europe. You are exactly right when it comes to Tool's approach to the fans.. Seeing this I'd wish alot of PJ fans could recognize the care they have and for this tour..It seems they are giving each and every date the upmost importance. I respect this anytime. If they don't come to Phoenix till the fall/winter it will be that much better without the heat plus the spacing of dates..if we wanted to we could see PJ all around through this year...this is an awesome thing..

    Wow!!! That is amazing. Congrats. :)

    Like most others... myself and EVERYONE I KNOW, were shut out. They were gone before they were even "available". It makes me nauseous when I think about it. An assload of tickets...like 40 something sold by the SAME DUDE, were up on Ebay before they even went on sale!!? :mad: I know they'll probably come back in the fall and play massive places...and I know I'll probably be able to score tixs for those shows, BUT of all the shows that should truly be for hardcore fans it's these super small intimate ones ya know?!? I'm still contemplating wether or not I should go down to theater day of. I'm NOT willing to sell my body though and refuse to pay the price of a car....so I think many others might stand a better chance. :p People are really getting crazy about this shit. :eek: haha.
    But hey...I do believe in miracles so....
    :D;)
    We'll see.

    HAIL HAIL the lucky ones!
    These shows are destined to be out of this world!

    I plan on being at Easy Street tomorrow night. Who knows, maybe Tool might drop in and play some stuff? Also will be in front of the theater begging anybody for tickets.

    It really is depressing to see how many tickets scalpers sold on eBay. There has to be a better way to combat having the same person sell so many tickets.
