Isn't this actually

Sleep Country Amphitheater (Amph at Clark County) (http://www.ticketmaster.com/Sleep-Country-Amphitheater-Amph-at-Clark-tickets-Ridgefield/venue/123505)Ridgefield, WA

I did notice that tour.nin.com says Portland, OR but I am fairly certain that is incorrect.

[jessamineny]

They're calling it Portland because it's just a hop across the river from it.

Just like the Sacramento show isn't in Sacramento, and the Seattle show isn't in Seattle.

I'll be in attendance at this show. Haven't posted in here yet.

Got row "PB" Which stands for "pit B", which is basically 2nd row. Can't wait!
Originally I was all up in arms because the venues were seated... but to have centre 2nd row without being squished and the ability to leave to go get a drink or go to the washroom at any time during the show and not lose my place is going to be pretty awesome.

EDIT: just took a peek at the seating chart and what tickets are still available and wow... this show is NOT selling at all. Hope sales pick up next month, hate to have them pull the plug on the show. Has NIN ever done that? Cancelled a show before of poor ticket sales? There were those mysteriously cancelled shows in Europe at the end of June this year... I wonder if those had poor ticket sales.

I have 2 extra NIN pre-sale tickets for sale if anyone is interested. The 2 friends that were going to attend cannot make it up to the show. Shoot me a message or email if interested.

Not like anyone is going to answer because i'm pretty much apparently the only one going to this show but... did anyone get that "nin.com instructional e-mail" on where to go get your tickets and what time the show starts etc for this venue? Because I certainly did not and it's a couple days to the show. I feel like they forgot about this show...

Well, there will be at least two of us at this show....

Copy of the email I got awhile back:

OK, so they just just decided to not give it to me. Thanks for the info.

Printed off my confirmation e-mail in case there's any trouble. I figure since I just bailed on the Toronto show and didn't claim my pre-sale tickets they decided not to send me the e-mail to this one as they figured I wasn't going to show up anyway.

[matt925]

Pretty sick emek poster for these last two shows. People are going to be flipping these so I'd grab one early if you were so inclined.

[ManBurning]

Yeah, poster is pretty bad-ass indeed. I defiantly need to grab one of these!
Guess there's a reason to get to the venue early after all now...
