Im going back-to-back in marysville and oakland. Who else is going to go back to backs?

TheConjuring

I'm confused, it says that the only seats available are for the lawn, which is the farthest point from the stage and they cost $140 bucks according to a gotickets.com and tickco.com. I'm confused because it isn't even listed on ticketmaster yet and have the other sections sold out already? And why is it so expensive, I look at the San Antonio and Bakersfield shows and they are in the range of $25 - 50 dollars, or so it says.

EGG-MAN

Is the Great Ryan Bentz who says such words.... I too will be attending both shows as well as fresno. you cruising there?

When will the tix go on sale? I've been to the Sleep Train Amphiteater, it's not too bad of a place to see a show. I'll probably go to the Oakland show too....where will it be in Oakland??

temporary sanity

Does anyone know when tickets for the Marysville Sleeptrain show will go onsale? I would like to get some nice seats when they go on sale.I prefer to not be in the pit but can still hang esp. for Tool if need be.Even the lawn for this show will be awesome,sat. on a warm summer night,Im stoked!

This site lists that tickets will go on sale next Saturday on 7/22 at 10:00am. But I wont be completely comfortable until Ticketmaster lists the damn show!!

temporary sanity

Ok I've been to a few shows at the sleeptrain amp. In the past all the shows had a pit in front of the stage that was general admission.The map for the event shows seats in that location is this the way it is now with seats in section 1,2 and 3?
http://www.ticketmaster.com/seatingchart/229440/14445

I got a ticket for section 1 row 13 seat 24 doesnt look like gen admission to me?

MrMcPheezy

I'm hella gonna be at this show.

I'll be in section three, looks like I'll have pretty decent seats, though a little farther from the center than I'd like to be. Oh well, it's better than the fucking lawn.

MrMcPheezy

To clarify the last response you got to this question, in case there was any confusion, Marysville is about an hour north of Sac, so the drive from SF would take about 2 1/2 hours.

Dude, you scored BIG!! I went to the box Office this morning for mine and got pit sec 2 row 9. And YES pit sec 1,2,3 will have seats that is straight from the lady at the box office. 3 tickets face at the box office 165.

i am, flying in from chicago

That is so sweet i didn't get nearly that lucky on line; for oakland 114 row 2 and mary ville 115 row 9. I'm hoping they will let me upgrade.

temporary sanity

I didnt even think of going to the box office,duh!Shit I could have saved myself some cash on all the convenience fees.
i got the one ticket in sec. 1 row 13 also two tickets in 105 row 7 all together $206.06 .Im really lookin foreward to this show Im so glad they didnt go to arco arena because it sucks.
The amphitheater is a 45 min drive but worth it to not have the shitty acoustics like arco.

MrMcPheezy

So wait, are sections 1, 2, and 3 a pit or a seated area? Is it one of those things where they put seats in the pit that no one actually sits in? I've never been to this venue (I tend to avoid Marysville as much as possible) and I'm trying to figure out if I'm gonna be in a seat or in the pit or wtf.

46inme

PIT is a term to mean the section closest to the stage. Sometimes there is no seats this time there is. All its going to be is a bunch of folding chairs strapped together, 16 rows in each section, less seats in the 1st row then in the last. Also I bet we'll get a wrist band and are ticket punched to prevent stubbing down ( my favorite.) And the the sitting down thing I'd hope there passed out drunk or kicking it on the lawn it's Tool, go to church the next day if you want to sit down hehehehe that's what i think.

Yeah I sat down for the Oakland show about five minutes the whole show.As long as we are not moshing Its all good.The amp. is run by some type of religious nazi's at least when it comes to beer.Nice place but the staff is really uptight pricks.

I went to the first show at this place and it was STP if i remember right.Everyone ended up in the pit because people kept reusing the pit tickets over and over again.They gave you a braclet the first time then you could come and go and give or sell your stub to the next guy.I think they changed that about halfway thru the first season.

TheConjuring

We got seats in Section 201, row 1. Ugh, the seating chart shows that we got some pretty crappy seats. Ah well, it's still Tool.

MrMcPheezy

Hm. I really don't want to be in the pit. I don't really feel a need to be shoulder-to-shoulder with idiotic, moshing, sweaty fucking morons. I'd rather have an actual seat. I'll have to call the venue and see exactly wassup.

46inme

Wait, did you just post you don't want your pit seat? Tell you what I'll buy you a 200 sec and give you twenty more dollars on top of that for your pit. Wait, did you just post you don't want your pit seat? Wait, did you just post you don't want your pit seat? Wait, did you just post you don't want your pit seat? I'm mystified, not to go south with this but, "moron?"

honky

lets make a deal. ive got 2 seated tix and would rather be in the pit. let me know.

temporary sanity

Come on guys the pit will have seats and im sure we will have to stand in front of our assigned seat. The security nazi's may even try to make us sit down.
Dude 6,400 something posts?WTF?

MrMcPheezy

I'm gonna call the venue sometime and find out exactly wtf. I'll post again after I do, and let all of you people know if I'm interested in trading tickets.

That's right.

MrMcPheezy

I don't know why this is so confusing. Have you ever seen tool before? I'm gonna be getting stoned prior to the show and I'd rather sit back and enjoy the performance as a whole than be in a huge crowd full of obnoxious fucking morons jumping all over the place. Maybe you enjoy that sort of thing, but I don't.

I've seen NIN a few times, and I'd hate to have a seat for one of their shows, but that's because Trent engages the people in the pit. With tool, they all basically just stand there and play the music. At a tool show, being close to the stage wouldn't actually do you all that much good. Being further back would give you a better view of the whole stage and all the artwork and everything.

maggie72

How hard do you all think it'll be to sneak a camera in???? I have a camera phone but I just got an awesome digital camera and would like to take some really good pics of the show. And as far as smoking, my boyfriend wants to toke it up while we're in the show, is security that tight??

Carbine000

I know you will be there, I got you a ticket ;) I'm so bummed we couldn't get 6 consecutive, good seats. Hopefully some nice tool fans will let us switch.

temporary sanity

No problem wth pot in the past ,its just with alcohol they make you first get a wrist band then wait in line forever.
My buddy got a bottle of whiskey in at the oakland show.It was down his pants,but they did take his cigarettes.

MrMcPheezy

I need to know about this too. If the opening bands suck (have they announced who's opening yet?) then I'll probably just get high as fuck in my car before the show, and then go on right before tool comes on stage. But if anyone here has been to this place and smoked weed there before, then I'll just try to sneak some in.

maggie72

I heard it's ISIS....Never heard of them so I looked them up and I wasn't impressed with what I heard, I'm not into screaming metal. I don't think TOOL needs an opening band!! I'll just be anxiously waiting for the first band to finish so the real show can start!

Prometheus

Fuck. I totally spaced and forgot when these tickets were going on sale.. I got mine the other day.. horrible, horrible seats.. is there any chance of an upgrade?..

Carbine000

Doubtful, tickets went really fast. I have never been to tha amphitheatre in Marysville but at The Shoreline, if you are on the grass its kinda just blah if you were hoping to see some details on the stage like who is standing where. (We all know, but, if you didnt you wouldnt be able to tell). Definitely "big picture" seats.

MrMcPheezy

I don't mind Isis. I'm probably gonna try to see them, actually. Which mean I need to know if I can safely bring weed into this place. Anybody know?

Agenda

Heres what you do: wear baggy pants and wrap up your weed good ( you don't crotch weed ) and place your baggy in the crotch, they can't search your crotch or your girl friends bra works just the same . Thats how I've gotten pictures and audio from other tool shows.

MrMcPheezy

I'm sure I can find a way to get it in, but how strict is the security in the venue? If I were to light up during Isis' performance, would anyone give a shit?

Prometheus: If you're still looking to upgrade your seats in Marysville, a friend (_J_A_Y_) and I have extra tickets in section 112, row 9 we'd sell for face value. _J_A_Y_ posted them in the ticket hookup thread: http://toolnavy.com/showthread.php?t=55135&page=3

If you're interested, pm me or _J_A_Y_
