Dissolving and reforming so quickly I seem only to flicker.
The Ford Center has a pretty decent sound. I've been to probably 10 shows there. It's probably due to the fact that it's a newer arena and originally hosted events when it first opened. It might be a little better than the American Airlines Center, which seems to have a bit of a "hollow" sound to me. But everything can change depending on the soundcrew from band to band. I haven't been to the arena at Cedar Park though so who knows. It seems like it might be a bit smaller though. The Tool show at the Ford Center in '07 definitely sounded great.

So I got floor seats but I'm a little confused... The seating chart that pops up says that the floor is general admission but my tickets have section,row and seat numbers. Which is it?
I just got off the phone with Ticketmaster about this. Because the map they are using has also been changed from when they went on sale to now.
He described a semi circle of standing room right in front of the stage that is standing room. Then behind that there would be seated sections like the current map shows. I'm imagining something like how Nokia in Grand Prairie was set up last time around.
Of course Ticketmaster reps have the credibility of a heroin addict in my book.
they did a crappy job of managing this map,they changed it half an hour after on sale while i was pingin the shit out of general admission just to find out theres NOT a general admission,its seated like it was last time they played ford center,i pulled up some floor section 6 but i released them cause i thought it was a mistake,i ended up with fuckin section 104. lower level back of the damn arena. I miss the days of having the front rail at the aenima and lateralus shows. ford center and ticketbastard screw us again!
So what did everyone get?

How much were tickets after service charges? Think they'll sell out?
I think mine came out to about $66/$67 per ticket and that was for lower level seating. It really seems like they didn't release tickets for all the sections yesterday, so I'm willing to bet it won't sell out. In fact much better tickets might become available later as new sections are released. Or maybe not, what do I know?

I ended up buying 2 pairs of tickets for OKC... Section 5, row f, seats 3-4 and section 117, row L, seats 11-12. I've never been on the floor for a Tool show. I've always had seats in the lower level around mid-court and I've always loved them. The floor seats I got seem like they would be a great place to watch the show, I'm just wondering if we'll be able to see everything well enough. This will be my girlfriends first time to a Tool concert and I've hyped them up so much, I really want her to get the most out of the experience.
I'm going, but I have to wait a bit to get my tix. I don't really care where I'm at as long as I get to go. I'm really hoping for a new set list. If they'll play Third Eye live I can die happy.

There's one hotel thats literally right next door to the Ford Center. I stayed there last time and it was way too pricey for the tiny room I got. They were pricks too. I forgot the name but don't stay there.
anybody planning any kind of meet up before or after?

Reason: spelling
I am excited. I have only seen them once before. I probably won't technically be seeing them this time since my seats are so shitty but I am looking forward to hearing them again.

I saw them at the Convention Center in Tulsa back in '07. I had shitty seats then but it was still a great show. My seats are WAY better for this show, though!
Think they'll hold out on more good seats, seems like I can't get anything decent in the lower level right now. I know last time like 2 weeks before the scheduled date all of a sudden they had all these awesome seats come up for sale. Ticketmaster...
anyone else get their tickets in the mail today? i did.
yes i think the setlist will be the same,but i hope it changes. ive seen this setlist 5 times now
I have sec 2 floor seats to see my favorite band, I really could care less about the setlist. Yeah everyone wants to hear something new or different or their favorite or whatever, I'm just excited I get to see them again.
anyone here go to the deftones oklahoma city show tonight?
i did,just got home. i was front row and people were brutal......
epic show. ive seen them 4 times now...........
I got Section 103, Ticketmaster kinda fucked me but I'm used to it so whatever. I'm driving from Saint Louis the day of and am starting to look at hotels. Any suggestions? I've never been to OKC.

Can't wait to go! I went last year to see them at the Nokia in Grapevine, and I'm hoping this show will be even better. This will be my second time at Tool, but my friend that got me started going is seeing them his seventh time. I have to start catching up with you guys.
I don't recall the seats, but we're just up off the floor, dead center. I wouldn't want floor seats just because of the visuals. Amazing show!
