Sec 102 Row J mofo's! My only concern, after I got the tickets, is that I might not be able to take in the screen show. Oh well, those are still awesome seats.

I did, just to be worry free of any potential hold-ups, but I don't know the area nor do I have a guess at how many people will be at the show.

hey guys i live in grandview (suburb right near nationwide).
Dont buy the garage tickets!!!!!!
there are other parking places and honestly the best parking option is to go north on Neil Ave. about one or two blocks and there is a Giant Eagle or Kroger Grocery Store with enormous wal-mart style parking lot. I have gone to two shows at nationwide by parking there for free and walking to the show which takes maybe 10 minutes.
I was clicking and ready to go with two credit card accounts set up right at 10 am and still the best I did on tickets was..
113 Row D Seats 13+14
113 Row W 7-8
105 Row N 14-15
112 Row R 15-16
I wanted 6 together but didnt want the really bad seats it was offering.
See you all there.

Got my ticket! Funny I almost had the Floor 4 row J ticket too. Only a 2 row upgrade from what I originally got.
Which is: Floor 4, Row M seat 8
The lucky SOB in front of me got Floor 2 Row B or D (i think). Oh well, hopefully it'll still be a good show. Surprised at how huge this show is here in Columbus.
Yeah I got Floor 1, Row Y, Seat 5. That was on my third try about 10:13. Gotta bust my ass there from band practice ending at 6:30 at Ohio University in Athens. Anyone have a guess as to how long Isis will most likely play?

damn i was on there at 10:00 on the dot and the best i got was section 116 row w but that is like right by the stage but to the left so I think it will be awesome enough. be a 5 hour drive from where I live though.
thanks for the parking tip congrats to you guys that got floor

Dang, did you select Best Available? I went with Floor tickets, waited around 2 minutes and got an error from ticketmaster, so I went back, put 3 tickets for floor again, and my wait time went all the way up to 15 minutes(which took about 4 minutes) and still got floor tickets.
yeah i selected best available. I had firefox looking for some and then internet explorer lookin for some 116 was best that came up
o well im going thats all that matters. I may buy some floors from ebay if i can get lucky and find some cheaps and then sell mine on there
edit: mercury keith what makes you think you wont be able to see screen show. Im in 116 which is same spot as you just across arena. Hopefully angle will be good seats. There close but angled i hope this doesnt suck. Ive never seen Tool live before so if anyone has had similar seats (meaning close/angled) let me know how they are.
Edit AGAIN: if you go to www.nationwidearena.com and look at the seating chart they give you a picture of what the view is from your section. So based on that my seat is pretty good.

Row U, unfortunately. I messed up by having two browser windows open at once and had to go to the back of the line or I'm guessing I would have been closer. Guess I know not to do that next time.

I don't know, I always have this concern when I do lower bowl on the side for bands who use a screen show. I was worried about some NIN tickets I had in Cleveland last year that were about in the same spot in Gund and it turned out fine. I think it's just how those seating charts look.
Actually, after looking at the interactive seating chart, I think we'll be fine. Folks in 101 or 117 might have a problem if they sell those. I saw Tool from basically that same location on Maynard's side once and couldn't see the screens, but I did have a fantastic view of the band where others really didn't.
I was pretty disappointed about not getting floor tix, but after checking the Nationwide website and looking at the view of my seats i'm pretty excited now.

I'm pretty pissed at my buddy who was in charge of getting the tickets. He had section 115 row M up but then he waited longer than 2 minutes to check out so he trys again and just got the next pair that popped up which happened to be section 113 row W!!! WTF!!!!! Calling him a dumbass would be an understatement.

I was there at 10 am and trying for lower bowl the whole time. I wanted something in 107 to 111 and had to settle for 113, 112, and 105 which still involved a lot of clicking. Im not one to take chances on getting the side section seats and HOPING nothing blocks my view.
Opening band probably 40 minutes. I would expect Tool at 9 or 9:15 pm. Play til right around 11 pm. Just my expectations.
