Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
oops I was busy today and forgot to order until about 5pm. My wife ordered via phone and got tickets, but I have no idea where. I guess I'll just be content to be there, lol.

HAHA that made me laugh. I went to a cd warehouse at 9cst to get tickets for the Dallas and houston shows and the 1st thing I did was ask them if they knew how to work the ticketron machine. When the "stupid cunt" kinda stared blankly at me, I hauled my ass back to my house to press my luck on the net. Pretty good seats for Dallas, last f'n row from woodlands. Just glad to be there though.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater

Wow, 6 in a very good spot. Your friend must have connections or quick hands. I hear there is a curfew for the venue of 10:30 because it is in a residential area. I hope this is either not true or not in effect anymore.

There is still a 10:30 curfew. Bands tend to finish exactly on time since they are fined for playing past the curfew. There is also a decibel limit. Bands can only play so loud or they are fined. Fiddler's is a horrible place for a concert although there have been some good shows there.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
That is really not cool. Maybe they will go past the limit, thats why the tickets are so expensive.... Seriously though, I hope they play a long enough set.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
Hey All!
I will be flying from Missouri, and will be going to the show solo. It would be cool to meet up with some people before the show. Possibly even lining up a ride to and from the show. I can compensate for gas/beer/whatever money. I will be in Westminster. I am a chill type of person. See me @ www.myspace.com/dysfunkyone I have a ticket for sale in the hook up section that is in sec 201 row Y Seat 41 ... See that post for more info...peace! d=) I will be in section 102 row HH Seat 142
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
Got lucky via a HOB pre-sale. 101, row CCC, 2 seats from the aisle towards 102. Wife pulled 103, row GG over towards the side. Thank heavens for her work's high-speed access.
As far as the curfew, doesn't the show start at 7:30? I could see ISIS doing a 45 minute set w/ tool coming on around 8:30-8:45, making it close to a 2 hour show.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
Funny story. My boyfriend and I are actually in Florida and planned to go to Disney World on Jily 22nd and 23rd. We got a little worried when we found out tickets went on sale on Saturday. The time difference is two hours here, so at about 11:45 we stepped into a quiet area (hard to find during tourist season at Disney) and started calling the Colorado ticketmaster. It was busy until about 12:08. We were getting pissed because we knew if we got anything, we'd be stuck with lawn seats when we wanted regular seating. At about 12:10 or so, we called my mom... she is a heroine! She got us two seats in section 103, row LL. We were so relieved and it made our Disney experience even better. Thank God for Tool and thank God for amazing mothers. :) See y'all there!
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
I was able to get in through the member section of HOB.com before tickets were available on Ticketmaster and scored section 103, row CCC - third row! As far as the curfew, I did a little research and 10:30 pm is accurate. However, previously some bands have asked the county commission for an extension to 11:00 pm and had it approved, so there is hope! The show starts at 8:00 pm and I'm afraid Tool might not get out until 9:00 pm, give or take, leaving them only 1 and 1/2 hours. See y'all there!

Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
As of the time I type this, you can still get tickets for the show if you are a House of Blues member and you buy tickets through their website using a VISA Signature card - sections 102 and 202 are available. Email me at [email protected] if you have questions/need help. Spiral out.

Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
So I called and was on the internet and got Pavillion seats both ways. Only bought the online ones though probably shoulda checked to see which was better but they don't tell you until you buy them on the phone.
Anyways 4 tickets in 201 row F.
I'm happy. Fucking curfew will blow nut sack though
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
All the tickets are sold out now, for sure.

Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
I hope these auctions aren't going to become the whole ticketing process in the future. I also hope ticketmaster isn't holding all the profits for themselves. Instead of beating the scalpers they have joined them.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
I don't think TicketMaster will switch to auctions. I think that these tickets are actually people giving up their tickets and TicketMaster thought it would be better to make money with an auction style sale. Of course it wouldn't surprise me if TicketMaster really did stoop to the level of scalpers, as they are already at the level where they give priority to the scalpers instead of to the fans. Equal chances at getting tickets my ass.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
Ticketmaster is essentially an organized scalping monopoly. Look at all the added "convenience" charges and whatnot, and without another company to compete with they can charge pretty much what they want through whatever cryptic language they desire. And they do! I think booking should be part of the original cost of the ticket and should not be an add-on "convenience." Whatever.
Thanks, Cloud, for clarifying. I was confused why they would sell tix again.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
One of the auctions is for pit general admission. Where is it located? I have never been to this venue and don't want to assume that the pit is right in front of the stage to find out it's in front of the lawn. Can anyone confirm the location of the pit?
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
I believe the pit is the very front between the stage and the first row of seats. I've never been there either but pit usually suggests right in front of the stage.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
The auction says GA and that's the lawn... so I'm assuming they're tickets for the lawn. All the maps I've seen of the place say the GA area is the lawn and the area that's supposed to be the pit is 101, 102, and 103 seating.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
Anyone thinking about meeting up somewhere before? I know of a place real close, but haven't been in a while, so I'm not sure if it'll be packed or what.
Re: 2006/08/30 - Englewood, CO - Coors Amphitheater
I was nearly freaking out for tickets to this show and I almost bought someones extras in sec 204, but I checked ticketmaster today and got me 2 tickets in sec 101! WOW It looks like there are still some left too!
