    Got my GA tix for Vancouver!! Thanks to those who tipped me off on the presale code. I never did get that email from the band's mailing list, which I know I was on. But anyway, all's well that ends well. It was a bit of a harrowing ticket buying experience. I was signed into TM but not ticketleader, then I couldn't remember my ticketleader password and had to retrieve that, and then I discovered that the CC they had on file was expired and I had to change that, and then it wouldn't read the CV at first.... It took forever - I thought the tix were going to disappear, but they didn't. :plus_one:
    I got Row 1 side stage. Very happy!
    Awesome! I am jealous, lol. If I hadn't had all those issue with ticketleader I may well have been able to land a pair like that as well. I love the pit, but again, when I go with a friend things just aren't the same. They aren't even into it enough to have the will to get a good spot on the floor unless I insist. I need some more music obsessed friends. :lol:

    I asked my wife if she would like floor tickets, she said the only band she wants to be on the floor for is Pearl Jam...so that narrowed my choice down ;)

    Scored GA for Portland, OR. Looks like a small pit upfront. Woohoo!

    Happy others were successful in scoring tickets. 

    This is going to be awesome!

    Finally getting around to getting pictures downloaded from some recent shows. Saw them at Cal Jam and then a couple days later at Red Rocks. Both were great shows, but the experience at Red Rocks was absolutely incredible. Got out there early to explore the amphitheatre and park a bit and met some locals that were queuing. One of them was particularly kind to me and made sure my first Red Rocks experience would be absolutely unforgettable. Snagged us some front row spots. While that may not be optimal for taking it all in view wise with the setting, it was surreal to be up there. Had been on the rail and up close at a few of their club/theatre shows before, but this topped them all. The show was amazing. Loved the new material live as well as getting to see them play "I Appear Missing" again, which I only saw once out of 5 sets on the Like Clockwork tour. So glad that I made the trip. Bucket list trip for sure and can't wait to go back again to explore more. 

    Picked up a GA for LA today and will likely look to add a show or two down the road (Likely Vegas since my cousin lives there and used to work at the Cosmo). Need to see them play "Fortress" since they scratched it at RR!

    im hoping to Spin it tonight with some nice wine... hopefully watching the Yankees advance.

     Looks like I’m going to Vegas!
    I also need to thank a board member for the pre-sale code since queens never did send me one
    Brutal. I wonder if they are aware people who are signed up didn't get them?
    That is awesome you're seeing them in Vegas. I would love to do that (but can't afford to).
     I don’t have much desire to go back to Vegas...not a gambler, and the decadence/opulence kinda creeps me out...and it’s expensive...but my gf has never been...flight/hotel packages are reasonable, and with vday, the Oilers/Knights game, and a small venue queens show all in succession it was too much to pass up.  Also just found out my mom/stepdad planned a trip there for the Oilers game...been talking about a vacation with my mom, so I’m killing a lot of birds here :smile:

    I saw the Boston & Portland shows this weekend. 

    Josh was hammered in Boston & his rambling in between songs took away from the whole flow. It also didn’t help that the mix of guitars sucked for 2/3 of the show. 

    Portland was a completely different story. With the exception of ‘Feet Don’t Fail Me’ the sound was perfect & the energy was up all night (despite Josh aggravating his knee / leg, he was limping & apologizing towards the end of the night)

    I think QOTSA is much better suited for clubs & theaters, the two times I’ve seen them in arenas have been only ok. 

    One more thought: John Theodore is a F’ing monster; I could watch that guy play drums all day long.

    Great crowd in Portland last night.  Both bands seemed to really appreciate it.

    Tickets are still available according to their post that showed off the poster. Also, apparently there are tickets hidden in NYC Subways.

    Great show in Boston this past Saturday night. Both bands sounded fantastic, I walked out saying to myself, that's a rock concert! Royal Blood played a solid 10 song set as the opener and they set the tone for the evening, great sound, high energy. The QOTSA came out and it was game on, strong 21 song set, 2 hrs of classic QOTSA! Great blend of new and old, show had a nice flow to it. I know someone on here mentioned they didn't sound great, I couldn't disagree more, I was 15 ft center from the stage in the ga and it was perfect.

    I wonder if Royal Blood will open this new leg of the tour in January.   I'd like to see them here in Victoria.
