I'm pretty sure that between stub-hub, ebay, ticketliquidator, radio promotions and friends of people in the business, not a single proletariat TOOL fan got tickets to this show. That is my naiive resolution.

Re: 2006/05/04 - Oakland, CA - Paramount Theatre

anybody get lucky? i was on there and they were gone before 10:01am. You can goto an agency and pay from 200-1200 per ticket. I hope they play a larger venue in the area very soon.

Re: 2006/05/04 - Oakland, CA - Paramount Theatre

I'm sorry to say, I actually got a pair. Ok I'm totally ecstatic. . I posted ealier to find some for sale in case we didn't get any since it is our anniversary so I thought I would let people know that we no longer need them. We seem to have luck near our anniversary since we went to the small Chicago show 4 years ago on our anniversary. To all that didn't get them, don't give up yet. We actually got good tickets to both Berkeley shows on the last tour from people for face value. Good luck everyone and we hope to see you all there.

That's what I'm thinkin' fucking Posh bougiefest (that I wish I were part of). But I just can't feel good knowing some douchebag's 13 year old daughter and the like will be at this show instead of us.

I thought I might have graduated the GA arena shows after 5 years of waiting.................

They need to do what SOAD did @ the Fillmore--box office only, one ticket per customer, on sale the day before the show. Or will-call only the day of the show.

Okay...so I live in Seattle, wanted to buy tickets to the Paramount in Seattle. After clicking purchase, I realized I had gotten two tickets to Oakland. Orch level, row OO.

I might try and go, but would love to see them in Seattle instead. Any dumbasses in Oakland who bought accidently for the Paramount in Seattle and want to trade?

Its a long shot...but what the hell.

Re: 2006/05/04 - Oakland, CA - Paramount Theatre

I understand Tool's decision to play only small venues and I have been to a few arena BB&Q's. But what is up with the vanashing ticket thing? Only for the privilaged or well connected or is it luck?

ven·ue Audio pronunciation of "venues" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (vny)
n.

1. Law.
1. The locality where a crime is committed or a cause of action occurs.
2. The locality or political division from which a jury is called and in which a trial is held.
3. The clause within a declaration naming the locality in which a trial will be held.
4. The clause in an affidavit naming the place where it was sworn to.
2.
1. The scene or setting in which something takes place; a locale: “that non-cinematic venue of popular nightmares, the discotheque” (P.J. O'Rourke).
2. A place for large gatherings, as a sports stadium.

Any one have two extra tickets? Did they all end up on stubhub where we can get ass raped for tickets. I have a feeling those tickets that are going to 1000 bucks are just gonna sit there, and then there will be empty seats up front...tears*

Ok. I don't know who still has tickets and who doesn't. I got fucked because I had to be on a plane when tickets went on sale.

IF SOMEONE HAS JUST ONE TICKET, PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PM ME.

I had 6 friends trying to buy tickets for me. No luck. Lame. Oh well, at least I'll get to see them in the Forum (or some other giant place) in LA with a million moshing high schoolers who have no idea what they're listening to.
