    They did the 2 night no repeats back in 2021 at Aftershock and Louder than Life festivals. Must have been a good outcome. 

    I'll be watching from the sidelines. 

    Three Fish

    July 1996 San Francisco

    June 1999 Chicago

    2024. OK, guys. If there was ever a tour to wait on buying it's the second leg of this one. 
    Seriously.
    Who thinks tying up money in concert tickets for 20 months is a wise move? 
    This weekend we rock Portland

    agreed....I was thinking about Chicago tix but that's way too far out. And I'm guessing the pricing is going to be insane.

    Fuck that

    I didn't notice at first some of the dates are in 2024 that's definitely a long way off to plan for but I do like the idea of getting a ticket to both shows at once

    Kind of sucks that you can only buy for both nights. Apparently there's going to be a limited number of single night tickets available in January.

    No repeats? Who do they think they are? Pearl Jam?

    I have seen them three times and the first time, 1993 (basically supporting Live Shit Binge n Purge) was really, really good. The next two were good enough, as well. I thought Jason Newstad brought a ton of energy in that first one (he was still on board in the second one, as well).

    I'm not sure about seeing them in the Vikings Stadium but I do like the idea of getting that many songs over two shows.

    Fair point. I had money in RATM tickets for 2.5 years and it just got cancelled. I think I'll try to get tix for this but I'm not messing with anything over face in case it doesn't happen. If I have to, I'll hit the secondary market in summer of 2024...

    Difference being the Rage tix were tied up due to pandemic postponements (other bands had similar situations of course), an unforeseen circumstance.
    In this case the band/promoters are taking money nearly 2 years before scheduled shows. Ridiculous.

    Somehow I missed that wrinkle. There is no chance I'm dealing with getting in and out of Gillette two nights.

    I got a legacy presale code in case I change my mind before tomorrow and decide to go. How crazy high are the prices going to be for two shows?

    $600 for 2 tix?  Ummm, no.
    + a poster and a drink! So there is $100 right there. ;)

    The Enhanced Experience prices actually seem alright for what you get. Not inexpensive obviously, but compared to what good arena/stadium tickets go for alone nowadays.

    Snake pit tickets are $1400 
  • hihobibohihobibo Tampa, FL Posts: 1,055
    Prices are pretty reasonable actually. Here is what the NJ show has for seats, without including fees. 
    2nd level is $239 ea, Upper deck between $100-$155, 1st level End zones are under $300 ea.

    If I was close to a show I would have been in but the travel and hotel expenses are just too much for me I've seen them several times. I got through the ticketmaster maze in less than five minutes with the legacy presale code

    No, that's not good.  That is double what they were pre pandemic.

    500 for a pair - 2 people for 2 shows = $125 per ticket. 

    I got a 2-day pass to 3 cities in 1st level, 50yrd for $340, $408 & $456 after fees. $170 - $228 per ticket after fees is pretty reasonable. My ticket to EV in October was $240.

    125 I can stomach but I don't really bother that much anymore.  It's a 600 night when I go see a show now.  It's nuts.
