Have you been this this venue before?
I was looking at photos of the venue, and I noticed it was all seats.

Will there be a small pit/floor area for this show?

If it's all seats, I'm going to pass on this show.

EDIT: Holy fuck! The price range for this show is out of this world... Price range from : 67.50 to 95.00 €
I converted the top tiered price to Canadian Dollars... $145!!!
That's expensive as hell for a theatre show, isn't it?
That's like an arena price....

2007 my son and I went for two days.
There’s a balcony seated and the floor area is standing. Capacity almost 2000: best atmosphere you can imagine. Presale code is a fact, I see right now.

Edit: I guess, floor will be €67.50 and balcony €95.00. And....this will be sold out in minutes. I'm almost sure there will be a second show the day before when this one is sold out.

ManBurning, I was at both nights back in 2007 & this venue is an excellent place to see NIN perform live.

I don't know if they've updated the layout, but it was an open floor without any seats.

I don't know if they've updated the layout, but it was an open floor without any seats.

Then in 2007 the situation was the same. The possibility for 'seats or no seats' on the floor. This time it'll be the same: 'no seats' ;)

ManBurning

That was stressful as fuck! I'm shaking..... but I got a pair of standing tickets!

I also had no idea what I was doing, I saw "Row 5" and then I started to panic thinking "I don't want seats" so I gambled and re-did it, and then it said row 1....
But I don't think that matters now, my girlfriend is French and said "debout" means standing. Would have been good if she wasn't outside having a smoke while I was trying to buy these, lol...

But, Guess I'm going to Paris. Now where are those UK dates so I can make this trip worth it, heh. Or at least night 2...

But, what I want to know is..... why were the floor tickets the cheapest and the balcony tickets were the most expensive? Shouldn't it be the other way around.

Mine had seat rows and numbers as well. If you bought from the Orchestra level and it says "Debout" on your ticket/order, you're good. You're in the GA area.

I think the assigned rows and numbers are just to keep track of how many tickets they are selling so they don't over-sell the floor.

Seriously. I'm in the car right now and my girlfriend called because she absolutely couldn't get through on that website. I stopped the car and bought them with my phone. Intense couple of minutes, but I'm really glad it worked out. Now I should get going again.

01-29-2018, 10:21 AM
Wrong prediction of me: I really thought this one would sell out in a couple of minutes. Still tickets for sale. Does not everyone have/know the presale code?
Still curious if there would be a second night the day before. Because the venue capacity is only 2000...

edit: just noticed the presale is done. no possibility to buy tickets.

I think a lot of people had the above mentioned issue and after 10 minutes gave up and haven't checked the website since.

So there's a *chance* I'll be in Paris for work that day, but there are too many unknowns to make it worth buying a ticket now and dealing with the hassle of reselling later. Best hope (if I do end up there) is that someone backs out last second and has one to sell at face value. I can dream, right?

I hope there is a method to this madness of releasing 1 date a week at a time, because this doesn't make any sense to me.

I'm hoping for a second show, but I guess it all depends on what the band has planned the week before...
Are they going to do the UK or not?
Hope they announce something soon. And by soon, I mean before this Amsterdam show gets announced and goes on sale, because that show is a tad out of my way, but at the same time, I want to hit at least 2 shows when there. Shows in the UK are preferred as my trip is going to consist of stopping in the UK for 4 or 5 days before Paris and then doing Paris for 3 or 4 days and then flying back home. Would have to cut each city down a couple days if I wanted to throw Amsterdam in there, and at that point it's becoming a bit too complicated and too much traveling around. Not enough time to take in the sites of the places.

Been lurking here a while but decided to finally join ETS! So excited for the Paris show, it will be my first NIN show after waiting many years to finally see them :) Also going to Berlin

Does anyone know how early it's best to be there to get barrier? We're coming straight from Graspop festival in Belgium to see NIN and the earliest we can be at the venue will be around 9:45am, is that early enough to make it to barrier? :) I am used to Manson fans who can be terrifying in Europe!

(welcome!)
difficult to estimate, I think it mostly depends on the size of the venue (bigger venue = more tickets sold = more likely that fans will be queuing early I guess), if it's a weekday or a weekend and many other factors.
For smaller venues, when NIN played at Scala in 2013 there were around 5 people queuing at 9am and around 20-30 at 4pm. Most people arrived around 5pm-6pm if I remember correctly.

Well only 1996 tickets sold, around 1000 standing and it's also a Monday :) So that isn't too bad I don't think! I would be there at 6am but I literally can't get from Dessel to Paris early enough, so just gonna make do with as early as possible :)
Thank you for that! Helps put things in perspective, the UK is pretty bad for queuing! So shouldn't be too bad in Paris I don't think? I counted on photos and the barrier holds 40-50 people so hopefully I can be barrier for my first ever NIN show :D

We're coming straight from Graspop festival in Belgium

Lucky you!!

We saw the lineup poster a little too late, and by the time we started looking into traveling for it, all the hotels and such were fully booked. I spent like 2 days trying to see if it was doable from taking the train in and out of Antwerp, but it just wasn't feasible. Decided to put graspop off this year and aim for it next year. Next year, we'll be more prepared and will book one of those on-site mini houses. We don't do camping. I've learned my lesson with camping. I've camped at 2 music festivals before, both were the worst experience of my life. After the first one, I swore to never do it again, but one of the guys coming with me to the 2nd one single handedly convinced a group of 6 camping was the way to go. We all wanted hotels, but this guy pushed and pushed and pushed (and is a great salesman), so we bought into it... it was even worse than the first time to the point where even the guy that convinced us said "yeah, that was the worst camping experience I had ever had at a music festival in my life"

I guess the key is to just book a mini hotel ahead of time when the dates get announced regardless of what the lineup looks like. I tend to wait until the lineup comes out for these things and make a decision based on that, but then you miss out on hotels and stuff, so it's a tough call.

Same with Hellfest in France, I think it's the same weekend as Graspop, wouldn't mind hitting that up, but once again... all accommodations in the area are booked.

02-21-2018, 04:37 AM
It's gonna be tough but hopefully work out :D

I was the same with seeing it too late, I had hellfest tickets for us both, transport planned and more, but then Graspop went and dropped a surprise announcement with Ghost, Eisbrecher and Septicflesh, three of my favourite bands... I couldn't say no! So selling our Hellfest VIP tickets and off to Dessel we go :D

Oh damn, yeah with such bad experiences camping I wouldn't blame you! We're pretty accustomed to it now as a couple, we have routines and ways to survive and enjoy it :) It works out pretty well! However I do think we will be doing one of those hut things ourselves sometime in the near future just to check it out :) Make it a fancier holiday

Yeah, just book ahead then sell if needed :)

You can try airbnb for Hellfest, locals open their homes to festival goers for the weekend

Tbh the French do queue pretty hardcore! For Rotting Christ people were there at 2pm! I am from England and going to the show straight from Graspop :) So I aim to be there for 10am, it'd be cool to team up with you and both go for the best spot in the house! My partner is there but not coming the gig (she's coming Berlin with me the week after).

Going to just quote/pasted this in this thread here, since this is the gig we're talking about. Not gonna continue to clog up the London thread lol...

Why is your partner skipping out on this gig? I'll be with my girlfriend at both shows, London and Paris. She's only ever seen them at a festival once. I'd like her to experience NIN live from the barrier at least once in her life. Figured since the Paris show is so small, this is her best bet. Next tour run might be arenas. Gotta enjoy these small venues while we can. The small venues are the best for seeing NIN.

Sounds like you have a pretty exciting adventure/vacation planned out. Graspop and then NIN in Paris and Berlin! I think we might come back to Europe next summer for Graspop. Try and book early this year to score one of those little huts on the site so we don't have to camp.

But yeah, meeting/hanging with fans while queuing up in the line is half the fun.

She isn't as huge a fan by any means and I pay for everything for us pretty much, which means we struggle a lot :') So she decided instead she can go some Art Galleries in Paris and I can go the gig :) Then Berlin is her chance to see them :D

Yeah barrier is the way to go with any band, I've been barrier for every band I enjoy, so I am really hoping I don't break the cycle with NIN as I am so bloody excited for it :)

Haha, yeah it should be good! We also have Marilyn Manson in Denmark that month too, so it's gonna be a very busy, very tiring month. I'll tell you how Graspop is when I go! I've done Hellfest and that is exceptional, so Graspop has a high bar to pass :)

Sounds like my situation. My girlfriend is in-between jobs right now, desperately trying to find work to help with bills and whatnot, we had this trip planned before she got laid off, so now I need to foot the bill, lol. She'll pay me back for her share when she can though, but still... lotta coin to dish out in one sitting! She, like your partner, isn't the biggest NIN fan. She never listened to them until she met me. She likes them when I listen to them, and even has a couple songs on her phone now, but wouldn't go out of her way for them if it wasn't for me lol.

I took her to her first NIN show last fall at the Aftershock festival in California. Like all of her fav bands were there (Halestorm, New Years Day, In this Moment, Ozzy Osborne etc) and even she came out of the festival saying that the best set of the weekend was hands down NIN. She just wish she could have seen better. She's short, and when you throw a short person into a festival crowd, it's chaos lol. That's why I want her to experience a NIN show at the barrier at least once in her life.

You guys over there are lucky though. You get all the great festivals. Graspop, Hellfest, M'era Luna, Download, Amphi etc... and all the BEST BANDS in the world play those festivals. Nothing like that ever comes to Canada. If we get a festival, it's your top 40 crap...

Here's an example of what we get here in Canada. Totally not my cup of tea.

https://www.kelownanow.com/files/files/images/skookum(1).jpg

The festivals in the states to be honest, aren't much better. The problem with the fests in the states are, it's mainly North American talent. Like all the big NA bands. Very rarely do we get European bands on the bill. The problem here is, they keep recycling the same bands over every 3 years as well. The festival market in the USA is very over saturated. There was a time where we only had 4-5 festivals to choose from, but now that number is closer to 20-25 all trying to compete for your money, and the issue is, the lineups kind of take a bit of a hit due to everyone trying to compete.

It's a dream to be able to attend a music festival in Europe. Hopefully next year we will be more prepared to do so.

For my partner she's a tattoo apprentice and freelance artist, she's insanely talented and once she is tattooing I doubt we'll have many financial issues. But this period where she's training up and proving her worth is dragging on for me :') Oneday though it'll be more than worth it!

I have seen the US lineups, it's always Shinedown/Godsmack/FFDP and other "Hard Rock" bands playing them. It does look a bit dire

Hah! I wouldn't count on it. The words "early" are not in my vocabulary. I'm a night owl. I can't usually fall asleep before 2-3am and am usually up around noon.
We'll probably be maximizing our sleep in time at the hotel and checking out at the very last minute (like we usually do, lol).
As long as we get 1 rail NIN show, we're happy. If all goes well, and we end up getting floor for the 2nd London show, that one probably makes the most sense to queue up early for and hit the rail, but we'll see what happens!

So we're a week out from my first ever NIN show and I am so excited

I was wondering if anyone would be up to help me out? I am going to be queuing 10 hours to try and get barrier for this show, however that means I have no chance at getting the poster as I am going alone (no-one to hold my spot or anything)

Would any fellow ECS members be able to help me out with that? I'd obviously give you the money for it, I just really want my first NIN show to be perfect, I've waited 6 years for this :D

As for the posters, we still don't know yet which merchandise will be on sale at the European shows. However, during NIN 2014 there was a single poster on sale for all the EU gigs so don't expect the fancy posters that are usually sold at the US shows :( if that's the case, you should be able to buy one later quite easily.

Yeah, you scared me for a minute there, but I googled news about this and I can't really find anything to be too concerned about. Seems like trains appear to be running as usual from what I can tell.

Yeah ? Well that is exactly how i described it, this morning i got 1/2 trains in rush hours and will do the sameon friday' as every 3 days since the start. They used to annouce it this way and close 93% of trains Paris-Versailles sometimes. However it's perfect timing, as i said.

You describe a normal day in London with no strike :D

But seriously, there will be a lot of people using trains that day for NIN so it's worth bearing in mind.

The goddamn train strike will affect travel on the Wednesday though right?
I'm booked on the 10:25 Thalys to Amsterdam... I just checked the site and that particular train will be running. Phew.

I'm finally at the hotel in Paris....

Trent and his band were on my Eurostar train!!

We saw them on the platform collecting luggage. I spotted Robin first, I went up to him and told him great show last night and shook his hand. Ilan and Alessandro were right there as well. Then 2 feet ahead was Trent and his kids. My heart raced and I was shaking. I walked right passed Trent Reznor. He was with his kids and a bearded security guy that looked at us and kind of did a wave to shoo us away, a motion to keep on walking. It was clear they were busy and didn't want to be bothered.

I'm glad I got to meet Robin at least. Wish I could have gotten a photo with him, but they looked like they were in a rush, so I didn't want to be "that guy"

That was intense. I am happy now.

Was also on the train. In London i smiled at Robin and he smiled back and I was really nervous. I then saw them too afterwards. I tried to see if Robin was interested in signing my rah ticket. His body language said no but he probably have done it had pushed .

I normally I don't ask for stuff like that but it's Nine Inch Nails and Robin Finck. I wish I wouldn't have even alluded to it. But it is what is. I was super awestruck.... Lol

So said ok good show last night and walked away like you did and he said thanks. They definitely seem in a hurry/ stressed .

I saw Trent but just looked and walked by . No need to disturb him while with family. Robin was alone .

The unfortunate kicker was I had a nin shirt on because I didn't have anything else to wear back to Paris.

Still a great experience even if I kind of fucked it up

I think we might have been right behind you. As we got off the train we were walking behind a girl that had the 2018 European tour shirt on. Do you have like middle length brownish hair, no longer than the back of your neck, but shorter than your shoulders? I think we were right behind you.

you must have got to Robin a few seconds before me, cuz I saw someone talking to him quickly and walking away. I wish I had the courage to ask for a photo, but you're right... they seemed in a rush, and I don't blame them, the train was delayed, so they were probably cutting it close for their sound check. It around 3pm when we got off the train, so they had to hightail it to the venue.

That was me. Again, as you saw it was quick. He saw me with my stub, I put it away and shook his hand . Yeah I can not even imagine the rush to get there.

The Royal Albert sound check was at 4. So assuming something similar, not much time at all to check in to hotel, get situated etc.

Rough train too. I just hope Robin wasn't too annoyed at the convo. Lol edit: I know he actually won't even remember.
