hey, anyone planning on getting tix and would be willing to get an extra one for me, let me know. i have a lacrosse tournament in worcester on saturday, so i can't order my own ticket (i might have to miss the dredg show that night too)

send me a PM or IM if you would be willing, i'd appreciate it a ton. i've never seen tool before and i'm dying to. thanks!

If anyone gets an extra ticket, know that by selling it to me it will be going to a troo tool fan, instead of a fake one.

Ps - Tool fan from the heart

the wang centre is the theater company that uses it, so the wang center is the official name. when theres a concert there though its known as the orpheum.

"Thanks for your e-mail. Unfortunately, we do not have Tool scheduled to
perform at our theatre in May.
We appreciate your interest in The Wang Center for the Performing Arts.

well the wang center is all the theater group... i saw dream theater there and they dont have the past scedule for dt on it... so it must be a seperate group that rents it out.

ill buy tickets even if im not sure its real.

EDIT: on the dreamtheater ticket it says that i went to the orpheum and not the wang center. Judging by pictures its the same place.

ToolArmy now lists the Boston show as being at the Orpheum Theater, so questions have been answered. Ticketmaster was right.

this is exciting!

think it will be one of those small venue shows that is impossible to get tickets for? if i can't go i'm gonna be a little girl about it and cry.... ok well maybe not but i'll be sad. i'm gonna do phone/online approach, and have my boyfriend do the same.

It's at the Orpheum. The Wang only hosts musicals and ballets and the like. The Orpheum is a rock joint.

Front Row Tickets my ass. Been to amny of shows at the Orpheum, and there's no way I would pay $135/ticket(their cheapest) to sit in the back of the balcony for anyone. $415 for 11th row is their closest seat. Keep it, i'll give ticketmaster a try on Saturday, thank you very much.

Alveolate, I just got off the phone with Ticketmaster and the Orpheum - limit of 2 per person. You may have to bring 3 friends...

In other news, I'm a total newb at this whole fighting-for-tix thing, and this tiny venue is going to be sold out in 2 minutes. Can any veterans give me advice on how to get the best seats at box price? Do I camp out at the Orpheum? Do I have a ticket-buying party with lots of computers and phones in one room? I would LOVE LOVE LOVE good seats to this.

edit: I'm getting a bunch of real fans together, either to go camp at the Orpheum or bombard Ticketmaster on Saturday. If we manage to get more tix than we have people, I'll post it in the swap forum.

Kevin,
If you happen to buy more tickets, I am in the category of "need[ing] some", so I would be more than happy to purchase them from you. I have extra Red Sox tix for the Monday night game against the Yankees the night after the concert (5/22) in the Right Field Roof Deck, so I'd be willing to throw those your way, obviously in addition to compensation for the Tooltix.

hiya tools,

i live less than a mile from the Orpheum and just went there to see if people were camping out over night and for those of you who are worrying about missing out on tickets....

well STOP, because they are not allowing people to stay overnight nor are they allowing people to start forming lines before 9am tomorrow. instead, they will place everyone who gets there after 9am in a lottery and draw #s for priority sales, and yes ticket limit is two per person.

adios,

~man-gnus

Setve
04-21-2006, 07:55 PM
thats a stupid setup, i think. someone dedicated enough to camp out in the street the night before should definitely get tickets. it kind of defeats the purpose of a line.

i am going to have 2 friends on the website tomorrow morning while i got play the lotto and hope for a good drawing. good luck to the rest of you.

Ticketmaster would probably end up cancelling both orders. just stick to the two ticket limit. you can only buy two tickets. they have ways of finding out if you ordered more, and they always do.

yea i got screwed by TM for Pearl Jam in Hartford a couple weeks ago. pulled up 5th row center, was told they couldnt process my order (only had one window open with TM.com in it). then i pulled up section 600 row KK which isnt too bad, so i ordered it. i check my status and i had section 800 Row FFF. all the way on the right side. i called and made them cancel my order. i hate TM.com with a passion.


oh and it looks like the reason the tickets went up in price is because i think they included some service fees in the price now. i only got charged an extra $6 over face for the ticket.

this will be my first tool show.... so i'm really excited anyway. i just keep telling myself "kim, there's nothing else you'd rather spend your money on"

i thought the show in Boston, at the Orpheum Theatre, was general seating.
i'll have to eventualy purchase two tickets on here, most likely seperately, and i'm not sure how that will work out when i have to bring a friend with me.. i have no car. we have to drive up from mid-connecticut, and like everyone else, TM shitted out on me at 10:oo am this morning.
If there's anyone that's been to the Orpheum Theatre that knows how the seating works, or *crosses fingers* has two tickets (or even one) to the Boston show, post it here. or aim/email at lifexispeachy or [email protected]

this may be a stupid question, but can someone tell me what their seat location from Ticketmaster says exactly if they are sitting in the section in the Orchestra called LEFT? i'm having a tough time figuring out exactly where my seat is. this is what TM tells me:

Section Row Type Ticket Price Convenience Charge
ORCH NN ADULT US $66.66 No Charge


Double letters are way up front. Theres Left, Left Center, Right Center and Right. You are on the far left side around the 11th row. Its tiny, those seats smoke.

does anyone know how many people this place actually holds?

my tickets are in the left balcony row Q... sounds not so good but i'm guessing no seat is a bad seat in a small place (if it's as small as i'm thinking). no matter how good the seat is, i feel lucky to be going.

I need 1 or 2 tickets I'll take anything at this point. Sold out in 5seconds. My friend was trying to get them I was at work and I call him on break and almost punched a wall. TM didn't crap out on him he was literally constantly refreshing and on one refresh that took 10sec it went from not being on sale to onsale he quickly selects 2 ticekts and go and it comes up sold out. I'm gonna go no matter what (even if by myself) but god damnit $200 is retarded. $750 for front row!? I don't have experience with eBay for concerts...do the prices usually drop come closer to concert time because they realize nobody will pay $750 or will people actually spend that?

Why aren't there better measures in place to stop scalpers. Its rediculous. We have so much shit about downloading music/movies/etc. and 8 year olds getting charged w/ downloading disney volume 3 while the real criminals are doing what is explicitly illegal in every fucking state and making a killing off of it. I dunno I guess it makes them available though. If 3800 ppl (or w/e) actually got tickets that actually wanted to go then I guess I'd have 0 chance of going instead of a high priced opportunity. Ugh.

If anybody can help me PM and I'll love you forever.

I have seen MULTIPLE shows at the Orpheum. What would you like to know about it? It is a very old venue, but most of the seats under the balcony aren't that bad. I had obstructed view last month and it was still pretty good. But for $1K a ticket I better get a Scarface pile and blow job ; )

I went to NIN at the fleetcenter and me and my friends had 2 Js in there but we didn't smoke because there was security walking up and down the aisle. I have the left center balcony 5th to last row.

Well this thread's pretty much dead, but I also managed to get a ticket (probably a result of my school's high powered, if terribly expensive, internet connection).
I got: BALC, row V, seat 109
I know it's a shitty seat, but I was just happy to get one.
Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone is going to be near there?
None of my friends got tickets. I feel kinda bad but Tool is just too important to me, I had to go off on my own and depend on my school and some serious luck to pull me through.

Thanks to a certain person(i love you man!) on these forums I was able to get 1 ticket for myself. I'll be going by myself, which I really didnt want to do but I guess you gotta do what you gotta do. This is Tool and my first time ever seeing them. I'm all up for having some people meet up before the concert and discuss the new album, maybe do a little mischevious deeds before we go in, who knows?!?

My aim is 'jgm' is anyone wants to contact me.

I paid $170 for this thing and the transaction went through fine and I recieved the ticket through e-mail. I got Balc LC Row V seat 107 which is a seat that exists so that seems legit. (i immediately was thinking maybe he faked a ticket that doesn't exist...) Does anybody know if there are identifying factors on the ticket that could prove if its real? Like some kind of show PIN number? I see a bunch of numbers but don't know what they mean. Help much appreciated

MJR, if it's a ticketmaster ticket I'd call them and ask to verify a ticket purchased through a broker. It could be he's selling multiple copies or something - if so, you'd better hope you're the first copy through the door or it won't scan.

mjr
04-25-2006, 10:41 PM
I'm still kinda worried but he sent me this which is vauge but reassuring...


Hi;

I just got home and found out the same information, and I am quite shocked. Ebay sent me a vague e-mail which I will post at the bottom (because otherwise it screws up my e-mail formatting) and forward it to you if necessary. It does not offer any sort of reason as to why they messed with my account. Regardless, the Paypal payment is still secure. Ebay's buyer protection is notoriously weak; if any sort of situation was to arise, then any dispute or buyer resolution would be made through the payment system such as Paypal. If a customer was ripped off on Ebay, all that would happen is they could file a big red negative feedback, which does nothing in terms of getting their money back. I've had a stellar reputation on Ebay, and my most recent ID was desi115 with a 99% sucess rate. I can be reached anytime at (646) 275-****.

I took the phone # out but yeah. I guess I have no way of confirming he didn't sell it multiple times but it seems like he didn't. He doesn't seem like a normal ticket broker though, although his supposed past ebay account had a lot of sells with all positive feedback. I only saw this seat on ebay once so unless he sold it elsewhere I hope I'm all set. If I go to orpheum and am for some reason denied at the door you will all be able to spot me being the 18 year old alone banging my head against the closest wall.

I'm still looking for 1 ticket- like a lot of fans I guess.

I am willing to pay a fair price for it- so far, the only PM wanted $450, which is too much for me.

Would there be anyone willing to pick me up a poster at the Boston show? I saw them here in Oakland last week and you won't be disappointed, obviously! By the time I got to the front of the merchandise line they were sold out, damn. Willing to pay double plus shipping for any good soul willing to help out. If not I understand, kind of a pain- enjoy!

I paid $750 for two 5th row center floor seats,...... I feel like a rape victim. It's unfair that scalpers charge so much for the tix. But the show is at the orpheum and the band is Tool,...... so It will be worth every penny. It would be nice if Tool (or a mediator) would control the tickets so that people who honestly appreciate the abnd could get the tix instead of a bunch of money grubbing cock suckers....... good luck to all in search of the grail,..hope to see you at the show

To those still searching-

It's been reported that the venues release tickets day of the show. That's happened at most shows and has definitely happened at the Orpheum for other concerts.

So before giving up, you may want to the concert on Sunday. What better way to F-U the scalpers than to get a sweet seat for face value!

I went to the Detroit show the other night and they didn't have the 2 t-shirts I wanted in my size. I am offering someone who is honest and a hardcore fan a 50.00 deal to hook me up. I will BUY YOU a t-shirt(35.00) plus 15.00 to hook me up with the 2 I need. I would send you a grand total of 135.00 to cover (35.00, 35.00, 35.00, 15.00 shipping, 15.00 you) If interested please contact me at [email protected]

What are the odds there's a fan out there with an extra ticket to sell?

I've tried to pull every string I can to get into this show and I'm coming up with nothing.

The last time I saw these guys was in Lowel in 2002, right before Halloween. During 'Parabola' Maynard's stripped down to his jockeys with his back to the crowd and he's acting like he's having an out of body experience ... like he's floating. Sick.. I've seen these guys almost a dozen times since '95, I'd hate to miss them this time around.

If anyone has a ticket to spare, please let me know.

Thanks,

E-bay has several tickets available (Brutal prices)..... It's the only place that I know of,...... I imagine the vultures will be on Tremont street trying to sell (Short of robbing you at gunpoint)tickets. Look for guys that look like they're from "Southie" or Charlsetown. Be EXTREMELY careful of counterfeit tix. Good luck

Right in front of Danny.

Did you ever stop to wonder if Danny's "the beauty" Maynard's referring to when he sings:

"I embrace my desire to
feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside and weep like a widow
to feel inspired to fathom the power, to witness the beauty,
to bathe in the fountain, "

Im still looking for 2 tickets if anyone has anything to offer or even any last minute ticket ideas. Im doing everything I can to find some(excluding paying 700bucks on flea bay). I may look new here, but thats because i got a new IP and have no idea what the old email and password was that I used. But regardless, I made it back. Im in Vermont, and a stay at home dad now. This would be a nice break for me. If anyone can help me out, PLEASE find a way to let me know. I know its last minute, but I just cant give up on this dream, not until its finally over. I cant actually go to the box office, thats out, Im a litttle far away for that. Thanks in advance for any help. It'll be appreciated more than you know.

Go to the Beantown Pub before the show. If you're looking at the Orpheum, Suffolk Law is on your left, then to the left of that, you'll see the Pub. I work in the area, and I can say that the Beantown is the best option pre-show. Good eats, a killer *networked* jukebox (if you've never seen one, you gotta check it out....basically, you can search for ANY song, and it finds it online and plays it) and of course, drinks.
I'm going solo, so I hope to see some of you there!

I'm sitting 5th row floor seats 7&8 in fron of Danny and Justin,.... I'll be wearing a a "coroners office" shirt and I'll be with a hot little blonde chick,. It'll be easy to recognize me,....... I'll be the one that has a raging errection and a confused look on my face because I'm so close to the stage. I can't stress enough how careful you need to be regaurding counterfeit tix. Make sure you only buy "hard tix" if you buy from the scalpers.
There is a liquor store around the corner on Winter Street for those who chose to drink in the commons. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's going to be slow dancing with a vodka bottle in public before the show. It's going to be an amazing night.......be good ,....if you can't be good,..just don't get caught.

i know its probably been said before, but the box office usually relesaes tix right before the show, so show up to the venue as soon as you can and stand in line. and you'll only have to pay face value unlike some of us suckers.

but, it is tonight! and will no doubt be worth every penny spent! my friend and i are probably going to hit up the beantown pub preshow (around 4:30ish). we'll be the two most excited women in the bar. aka - two short chicks, one with blond hair, and another with a big fro of curly brown hair! look for us! we'll be looking for you!
