I was wondering if any of their European shows or shows since the Gorge one had improved or changed in the visual design. I want more falling Alex Grey banners damn't! And screens that you can see.
The show in Tucson this past May the visuals seem more in sync with the music than the Gorge. I was close at the Gorge, and in Tucson. But in Tucson the lasers for Wings/10K Days were phenomonal. The lights and lasers for the Tucson show were much better in my opinion.

I landed a sec 106 row 2 ticket at 11:04 for the Everett show. The tickets were not even available on the site until 2 minutes after. The floor was already gone. I figured because I was only buying 1 ticket I could weasel my way onto the floor but it was fucking gone in four minutes.

I'm really hoping for The Grudge, but I doubt it.
So is this the last little tour? They've been going since 2005.
I 2nd this thought. I hope we get more from Lateralus, including "the patient."

Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
And jesus christ, the floor sold out in 4 minutes? How does that even happen? I'd like to see ticketmasters Tool account after that...well not really, I'd probably want to hunt down the CEO of ticketmaster and frag his ass, but thats besides the point...the system needs reform out the ass if thats happening. I bet people at the arena waiting didnt even get good tickets because brokers had 800 servers open at once pinging the shit outta it. Brother in Denver, I hope you lucked out! I remember flipping a shit about Coachella. I thought I was never going to see Rage!

yeah, except for it wasn't ticketmaster. as far as i know, the ticket sales were done solely thru the comcast arena site. so frag the events center CEO instead... no. on second thought, get them both.

They're really not coming to the east coast? That's not fair.
I know I can't afford flying to the west coast PLUS the actual tickets to the show. That sucks dude, I was really looking forward to seeing them once more this time around.

Yeah I got tics in section 201. I couldn't get through on line so I took precautions by having my gf, sis, mom, and dad all call while I was online and calling and only my sis got through and was able to get 6 tics.
Dude their are no shitty seats for this concert being in the upper level has the advantage of experienceing the whole show because of the way the stage is set up. That is if they keep the same set up as the other shows through out the 10k Days tours.

This is only the second time they have come to the west coast for this whole fucking album (if you don't count the small venue shows that nobody got to see). That is why they are coming; because the west coast got screwed.

My brother had another friend waiting in line at the events center and he scored 3 tickets right off the floor. He is going to sell the extra 2. I am going to wait in line for the Boise show when they go on sale to try to get floor if I can. I am not going to rely on trying to get through on the net after the bullshit with the server at Everret event center...
Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
I will see all of you at the Everett, Wa show! I got section 119, row 24. Not bad.
Seriously though...I can't (yet, at the same time CAN) believe what the floor seats are going for on ebay! Rediculous. Personally, I'd prefer a 100-level seat over a floor seat, because I always get stuck behind all of the tall bastards! Haha. Plus, this arena is quite small, so any seat is a damn good seat.
Here's a pic I found of the inside of the Everett Events Center (in case you haven't seen it):
Re: General Tool tour questions / discussion (merged)
Anyone know for a fact if the floor in Everett will be reserved seating? When I bought my ticket I thought I remembered reading somewhere that the floor is GA and the row/seat info on the tickets is meaningless. I'm still waiting on a reply from Comcast Arena.

Thanks Ross, I'll keep that in mind! I mapped out Tulsa from LA yesterday- you guys are far! Too far to drive. Flying is about $300. Ah well, come on CA dates!

Now, at first I really liked my seat better (since it's at a closer distance and the angle isnt too skewed). My buddy liked his ticket too, but he said he would easily trade me if I wanted the section 104 ticket. At first I said no, but now Im not so sure. True the section 119 ticket is closer, but the viewing angle from section 104 is better. Plus, the section 104 ticket is row 7 which is much closer than row 24 for the section 119 ticket.
I realize this isnt a huge deal, but I just wanted to know people's opinion's on which ticket they would prefer in my situation.
