I've been trying for a week to find a ticket but I get no match everytime. Sold out already?

[collapsed shell]

might be. i am surprised if they are, but go tool. i was just looking at them for of friend of mine who lives in alabama, and could not find one.

[Prisoner 37]

I need 1 ticket,don't care if it's a floor ticket or the worst seats in the house.If you have a pair and are only willing to part with both, and not just one, I may be able to swing that, but I would prefer just one.Please someone help me out,I've never missed a Tool tour since the beginning,but I was seriously broke when tickets went on sale.I'm also a real fun-guy,if that helps.

[dr funkmaster]

Everybody looking for tickets, just keep checking ticketmaster. Extras almost always show up the week or two before a show. It's random though so you just have to keep at it.

[Oliver Clozoff]

It is looking like my travel partner may back out and if so you have first dibs on 1 floor ticket Prisoner.Not a promise but if it happens the ticket is yours.

I've got GA floor tickets and was wondering what time we should get there. Will a line start forming early?...I went to see them last time they were in atlanta but there wasn't general admission tickets to that one. I'm also curious if there will be seats on the floor or if it will be standing room only. I would really appreciate any feedback i could get on this.

All I can say, is that I'm pretty sure there won't be any seats on the floor section. I've never heard of that.

[nickg420]

There absolutely were seats on the floor last tour...To keep the stupid moshers from getting too rowdy. It worked pretty good too. I usually always sit in the seats around the arena at Gwinnett because there really isn't a bad seat in the house anywhere there. I've seen shows all the way back center stage upper level and had just as nice a view as I have first section next to the stage 2nd row...When they designed this place they staggered the seating so you have a decent view from anywhere. I love seeing shows at Gwinnett.

I guess i'm getting old....i'd love to be able to sit on my butt the entire concert and still be able to see the stage. It was so funny at the last concert; everybody just stood there...It was like somebody said, "all rise" and then never said, "you may be seated" I swear to god it looked like we were all singing hyems at some evangelic Christian megachurch.
I might have better luck getting the "arrival" question answered if I post in one of the threads where the concert has already taken place. Hopefully the moderators won't kick me out.

[blake1138]

The 2007 show had seats and the tickets were listed as Sec F1-8 and your seat #. The upcoming show is just GA. I used to be big into pits in my younger years, now, not so much. I have never understood pits at a tool show however.

Tweak Bird has gone on within 5 minutes of the start time at every show. Look at your tickets to see when the show starts. Tool will take the stage roughly one hour after that listed time.

[superdopestar]

2 years ago when Tool played Gwinnett Arena, I got there super early to hang out and managed to hear sound check from through a closed door, but it sounded great.
I think I arrived at about 4 and sound check was around 5. I'd always rather get there too early and enjoy some beer in the parking lot, then get there too late.
I plan on arriving quite early tomorrow. Probably before 5.

[l David l]

fuck yes, the time is almost here.... first Tool concert this tour, third overall. cant fucking wait.

[blake1138]

I am working til 7am, sleep to around 3 and then I am off to Atlanta. Hope to be there a little early and catch a buzz in the parking lot before the show. I want to get about halfway back from the stage and hope it is an idiot free zone. Last tour we got Pushit instead of Flood, so for me I will get a new song.

As far as the setlist, I do not care if they come out and sing sonny and cher duets all night, I am going to have a great time.

[Prisoner 37]

hopefully we'll get something special,we're the only date with a day off the day before and a day off after the show,either way it'll still be great.

yea, do you think that a man trying to find a 3rd eye enhancer will be able to find something in the parking lot? i've tried to get some here but i haven't been able to.

[eulogys]

Leaving Florida for the drive up there now. If you see someone in the parking lot with a black Toyota Tacoma with NH license plates and wearing a Queesnsryche shirt, stop by for a beer.

[blake1138]

Well I am off to the show! Crazy excited! I will be the big guy in a "In case of zombie apocalypse, choose your weapon" tshirt

[withSpirit]

And we'll get ya to Duluth on time!

Wrinkled strings my dog-eatin' brother?

that ode is awesome. It's referring to a local restaurant, The Varsity. The are locally famous for their short tempered order takers and frozen orange drink. Guess we know where Blair had lunch.

That would be awesome!! Hope you guys have a good show there is a strange post/poem on Toolband about the frequently talked about cover song.

Why? I was completely satisfied with the Dallas show. If Duluth gets something new good for them!
