Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
I decided that this would be a good place for my first post.
I couldn't sleep the night before, I was so worried about not getting tickets, paranoid over the whole internet-purchase experience and nervous that perhaps this time would turn out like every other time I've tried to see Tool. As in... things don't work out.
Things worked out, this time... and I'm so excited I can barely breathe when I think about finally, finally! seeing them live... in Four Days, Two Hours, and Forty-Two Minutes... Not that I'm counting down or anything.
ORCH C, Row M. Anybody close by? Cause I would love a rock out buddy.

I am willing to bet money that at least one of, if not all the band members will go to the Bodyworks exhibit at the museum on the 9th or the day of the show....any takers? Or do you think they are not that interested?

Well... I can't say I like... know them... So I don't know if they would be that interested or not. Granted, it is a really awesome exhibit. That's a really interesting idea, though, that they would check out the exhibit before the concert. Maybe I'll make a reservation to see it again for the Tenth... That and Mystic India in the IMAX.
Oh yeah. That's right.
Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
I agree LadyCommish. I wish I was going. A few friends have gone, said it was awesome. It kinda fits right in with Tool :)
So... I failed to get tickets. But my boyfriend didn't! I felt my heart breaking when my computer said 'Sorry, we couldn't find what you were looking for' or whatever. And then my boyfriend was on an 8 minute wait, and we got them! Usually, if you fail once, you're doomed. We figured someones credit card got declined or something. Lucky for us! Our seats are: Mezzanine C, Row C, seats 205&6. Right in the middle. I was really nervous until our tix came in the mail, and now I'm just excited. :)

I've never been to the Buell, but what it's typically used for, I'm sure it will probably be kinda hard to smoke in the open. Maybe go to the bathroom or something.

i was just there about 3 or 4 weeks ago for a comedy show and there's going to be no way you're gonna get away with smoking unless EVERYBODY and i mean everybody else is.. just hit up the bathroom.

It's near 16th street mall so there should be plenty of places to go and grab a brew. On my streets and trips map I found 12 bars or restaurants with in .25 mile radius of the venue.

yeah there's plenty of bars and restaurants in that area, shouldn't have any problems finding booze down there ;)
Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
Thanks. I've been in that area, but I didn't know about the Buell. I've only lived here for 2 years now. I think the Buell is the venue on Comedy Central where they have that stand-up show.. the one with the hicks. The recorded one they play all the time with that cable guy and Jeff Foxworthy... Anyway..
Anxiously awaiting...

Haha, yeah I am getting pretty excited, but I have finals this week so I'm trying to focus and still get some studying done. My last day for the semester is coincidentally, and convienently, tomorrow. Have fun everyone, it's gonna be a damn good time!
Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
By the way, Ticketmaster's website says I got section BALC C. But I got my tickets and I'm in the same row, but I'm section BALC D now. It's a little disappointing because I was hoping to be in the center, but oh well... I heard that happened to a few people. :/
Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
i've a sweet friend looking for a ticket to the show. she's a cool chick and has to drive a bit to get there and would prefer (who wouldn't?) to secure a ticket before heading out there to try and find one the day of.
if anyone has a lead on a ticket for this show, please drop me a line. she's an old time head.
Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
Man.. that'd suck if you had tons of stuff. I have a few copies of each cd, and a signed pic by Maynard, but that's it. I would probably burn all of it for tix, but I'd be sad.

ticketmaster screwed me the same as everyone i talked to. i had my two tickets, and when i hit "submit order" they pretty much just vanished. my card was valid and all, it didnt even give me an error. just "if you think you ordered tickets, check your order history"

Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
Yeah, the Foleys at Southwest Plaza screwed me (and everyone else there) nice and hard too. Their doors opened at 10 am. We sprinted to the Ticketmaster desk only to be greeted by a sign saying that the desk opened at 11 am. We all stood there while the tickets sold out. We had no chance. In all my online research in the week leading up to that Saturday NOWHERE did I see that the office opened an hour after Foleys did (and an hour after the tix went on sale). So I'm going to the Buell tomorrow and praying to God, Satan, and everyone in between that SOMEONE will be kind enough to sell me tickets at face value (or close to it). So in conclusion, BOYCOTT FOLEYS!!! Fucking assholes.

Dude, that sucks. I would never trust standing in line at Ticketmaster ever again. I haven't done that in years, since shows sell out so fast now days, and only the first person in line has a chance. And that's a BIG if. I'd go stand at the box office (but go early.) I guess at other shows people have miraculously been getting tickets that way the night of the show. Good luck whatever you decide.

Thanks. I was second in line after waiting outside Foleys for two hours, but it was for nothing. I had no idea the Ticketmaster desk opened an hour later. Yep, I'll go and hope that someone has something available. I've got my fingers, toes, and nuts crossed...

HOLY HOLY HOLY HOLY HOLY HOLY FUCKING SHIIIIIIIIIIT. I just might be going to this thing. Found a lady on Ebay selling 2 tix for $220. If this Ebay thing works out I just might be going. But I'm keeping the fingers, toes, and nuts crossed...

I'm in the same boat....a big THANKS to the awesome zonacruz for helping me get a hold of a ticket!!! I'm so excited, it's ridiculous....
Re: 2006/05/10 - Denver, CO - Temple Buell Theatre
I'm getting nervous and I don't know why. Anxiety, I think. Maybe I should stop drinking coffee :) I hope my Mezzanine doesn't fall down, but I guess I'd die pretty happy.
