Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
I just won two tickets today from my radio station. I'm fucking amped although nervous about where the seats are located. I hope I see you all there, good luck guys and gals.
Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
Yes, that is what I heard before on the RHCP board right before tickets went on sale. I've never chanced it since, I only refresh in the minute or so before 10am, and only 2 or 3 times.

Hey, did you win those tickets at about 5pm yesterday?! If so, I played against you... and by the way, the stupid girl on the radio didn't tell me she was going for quantity of facts, she said to go with whatever "obscure" facts i could come up with... I wasn't listening to the radio and didn't know what was going on but one of my co-workers told me to call in, since she knew i was a moderately large tool fan. So I feel cheated, but happy the tickets went to a real fan.
Anyway, good on ya. But don't be too stoked. I've won tickets from FM96 before -- Pearl Jam at the ACC, Jane's Addiction at the ACC -- and the seats were terrible: back of the arena, second level. I've had friends win tickets for the amphitheatre and end up at the back of the 400s. Just a heads up.
Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
oh, and i second whoever said "London" for a tour stop... the JLC is a fine venue, and there's nothing like seeing your favourite band 5 minutes from home.
Earlier this year there was a quote from mjk floating around that tool would tour "everywhere" in the fall of '06 and "everywhere else" in the new year. My guess is that the band will swing back around and hit either the JLC or Copps in late winter/early spring '07, like they did on the Lateralus tour when they played the ACC first and then came back to play Copps.
Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
last question... sorry to load up the board...
i've been to TMA lots of times, but never in the 100 level... is the floor level or sloped toward the stage down there? I saw the pixies from the mid-200s and thought this was a little far away, but i'm "vertically challenged" and worried about being in the pit and seeing nothing but the backs of everyone's heads... so i need to decided to try for GA or 200s (assuming i even get a chance to have a choice...) If the 100 level is sloped, I can easily stand to the back and still have fine view, but if it's level i'll be screwed.

Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
I can't find the TIX limit info anywhere? Where r u finding it?
This may b a completely wrong assumption but on the toolshed site under 'TOUR' the Toronto date (and all others) for this stretch of their Tour which ends on (or is listed up until) the 29th of Sept. makes it seem like they may even hit Toronto or surrounding area (London, Ottawa, Hamilton Etc.) even one more time in the proper Fall.
It does say after all of those dates listed 'A fall tour in North America! Start saving up!!'
If they are having a successful time in Canada right now (w/ Platinum Album status Etc.)
this Molson AMP date may even b much the same as the HBrd show :(
w/ another date to come much later this year

Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
I was at this venue for Nickelback last week.
My girlfriend likes them although I don't (and hate three days grace that opened) and I had GA 100's...they were so ridiculously close.
I'm praying I get GA for TOOL....if I don't get GA or 200's at 10 am...i'll buy from ebay. I'm hoping that tickets won't skyrocket like they did for Hummingbird and that I can get a pair for only slightly more than ticket price. If i'm in GA for TOOL...it's going to be no hold's barred...and no sleep for days before.
Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
After getting screwed over for tickets for the HB show, i don't know what im gonna do if this one sells out in a second like the last one. Goodluck everyone.
Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
It likely won't sell out...
i'm pretty sure everyone can get tickets...but I really don't want to shlep all the way there to sit in the 400's.
I'll settle for 200's...but if both that AND ga are sold out...i'll probably try to get GA's for about $200 for 2...I hope.

Three Days Grace kicks ass. Nickleback is one of the worst bands ever though.

Re: 2006/09/23 - Toronto, ON - Molson Amphitheatre
I see on the seating chart that the capacity for General Admission 100's (Floors) Standing is 1,000 ppl
I'm wondering what capacity is for the entire AMP?
Dave Grohl thanked (during a Foo Fighters show) all 23,000 ppl for attending
The Lawns were packed but that figure sounds just a little high
That would b more than a show at the ACC
