This show is going to be in a SMALL ASS TENNIS COURT.

soooo small!

This concert spurred me to take a 1 month vacation in Europe. so nuts. I'm so excited

[Asclepius]

I'll be in Europe at that time and am trying to set my return flight from Rome..what about tickets?

[VinDieselFiesta]

yeah i'm going too. i got tickets off of euroteam.info
is this site legit? i sure as hell hope so.. they seem like it, tickets are supposed to ship out here starting the end of this month so we'll see.
can anybody provide info on the place it's at? like where in the city it's at?

if you think that charging 120 euros for a tool ticket and another 30 euros for shipping costs is legit... ehm.... no
You probably get your tickets but you sure payed way too much.

[ateoitalia]

Where can I buy normal priced tickets for Tool concerts in Europe (but especially Italy)?

Please help!

I want to see Tool at least 3 times and in 3 different countries while I have the chance!

[Staralfur]

i'm there!!i'll be alone, so if any of you guys is coming alone too let's hook up..

[master86]

I'm US Air Force stationed in Naples, Italy. Bought my ticket last week at a ticketshop downtown. The girl behind the counter used ticketone.it to pull up my tix. I paid a whopping .....72 Euro for two tickets. Thats about $85 give or take.
Saw Tool on the Lateralus tour back in '01 up in Faenza (near Bologna). Small basketball arena. No bigger that a decent sized high school gym. General admission. Got up to the stage. Amazing.
Oh, btw- I asked the girls who sold me the tickets if there were assigned seats and she said "no, libero"...which meant general admission. I'm taking two days off for this!

[master86]

Here is a link showing the "venue." Center court. BTW- turned my friend on to Tool this week. He purchased tickets this morning and the numbers were 4418, 4419. Obviously meaning there have "only" been 4400 tix sold...

[Staralfur]

this is gonna be the best european show, you can bet it.

get there anyway, there will probably be touts round there

[3poundsoflove]

this gig is sold out as I said before... but it seems it could be moved to another location in Rome

Friday I'll post the news on toolshed.it ... at the moment I cannot say more, cos I just don't know.

[master86]

3poundsoflove- what makes you think the gig will be moved? Did you hear something or are you speculating?

[Staralfur]

does that mean we need to change tickets or something?the new venue is out of the city?

[Hans]

normally, tickets remain valid if a concert is relocated. (I experienced it a couple of times in holland.)

[Staralfur]

yeah I guess..but moving it out of the city kinda sucks...

[herbert]

hi.. i'm italian.. and i can confirm that the gig was moved.. to the "palaghiaccio di Marino"

www.palaghiaccio.net
telephone number: 06 37518551
Address: Via Appia Km.19 - Marino - Rome

By CAR, 3Km away from the GRA of Rome on the Appia Nuova. Big private parking area in front of the Palaghiaccio.
By COTRAL buses, on the Roma - Albano - Velletri line.
By FF.SS. TRAIN on the Roma - Velletri line stepping donw at the S. Maria delle Mole stop.



tickets remain valid.


i found another news that will see tool come back in november in italy.. but it's only a voice from an italian site... www.hardsounds.it


i guess you will forgive me for my bad english.

[3poundsoflove]

yes, it's true. I can confirm. It's not that far from the centre of the city, and... no, it's not a beautiful venue as the Centrale del Tennis, which could have been a magnificient and appropriate one. Anyway... see you there.



edit: the concert begins at 10pm

on toolshed.it other information to get there.

[Staralfur]

10 pm?why is it that late?i don't think there is an opener anyway...will there be any public transportation back into the city after midnight?flying tomorrow to Rome...can't wait for the show..

[herbert]

maybe there will be a problem with trains that will go on strike probably..
but the organization will put to disposition some bus shuttle only for the liveshow..

here there are the timetables of the bus:

from "Centrale del Tennis" to "Palaghiaccio di Marino" there are 3 bus that will start at the 5pm - 6pm - 7.30pm

from "Palaghiaccio di Marino" to "Termini" station there are 3 bus after the concert probably...
