[ninlive]

My body is ready.

[Space Suicide]

Might go. Might not. We’ll see.

I wish it were in Charlotte or Greensboro.

[buckets of lube]

This venue any good? I am reading all sorts of mixed stuff, particularly about the sound being too low.

[m0reta]

My friend from Raleigh confirmed that this venue can do PIT. So let's hope that is up with the proper seating chart. :-D I didn't ask about acoustics, sorry!

[m0reta]

I see we may have info for one opener on the tour from the Livenation page (https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/2D005C42C1E25C93?irgwc=1&clickid=S3lRCoUFJxyOT2twUx0Mo3YQUkGUCg2lp3m4Vo0&camefrom=CFC_BUYAT_361433&impradid=361433&REFERRAL_ID=tmfeedbuyat361433&wt.mc_id=aff_BUYAT_361433&utm_source=361433-Linkfire&impradname=Linkfire&utm_medium=affiliate) for this show.

[FULLMETAL]

Good find. Sucks they have that "fast lane" entry bullshit.

Boy Harsher would be an awesome opener.

No worries... per the article from 2013 below, there's a 95db limit. Not great.

[ninlive]

LOVE Boy Harsher and they would be an awesome opener!

[buckets of lube]

So there's no GA pit after all. 100% seats. I got a ticket on the far end of section 1, but I may end up reselling.

[Zimbo]

I am going but I fucking hate ticket master.

[trollmanen]

I got tickets in Sec 3 in the back but close to center. So excited for the first NIN show in four years!

[Space Suicide]

Tickets are a rip off. Pass.

[MrEWhite]

Managed section 2 front row, hell yeah.

[redwingsrock]

Lawn seats for this one, but I'll be there!

[Failure]

Managed section 2 front row, hell yeah.

Wow! That’s amazing. What did you pay for those (just out of curiosity)?

[MrEWhite]

Wow! That’s amazing. What did you pay for those (just out of curiosity)?
More than I should have ;)

It was one of those Platinum tickets, but I really wanted to get up close for my first NIN show. Surprisingly wasn't even the most expensive Platinum option.

[Failure]

It’ll be worth it (no matter the cost). Getting an actual seat in the front row (for a NIN show) is a pretty rare treat…

[m0reta]

Seems like they dropped PIT tickets as Platinum price of $298 right now. FYI for anyone who can swing that!

Fucking insane price

[xinina]

pit tix just magically appeared FYI

[FULLMETAL]

Ticketmaster is shitty. They don't release PIT tickets during the Artist presale and magically they show up after it's over with that bullshit Official Platinum.

[MrEWhite]

pit tix just magically appeared FYI
I'm confused, it shows pit being where I purchased a ticket (looking at the seat map in my order, it literally says my ticket is in the front of the pit), what the hell is going on?

Likely your ticket will be converted to pit.

But seriously, WTF is this bullshit.

[MrEWhite]

But seriously, WTF is this bullshit.
If it is, we're gonna have an issue. I'm going to call the venue tomorrow morning to see what's up and see if I can get swapped to a different seat or something.

that is so weird! I have bought many concert tix and have never seen this happen.

must have been some fuck up by the venue?

[buckets of lube]

If it is, we're gonna have an issue. I'm going to call the venue tomorrow morning to see what's up and see if I can get swapped to a different seat or something.

If you cannot, please sell it to one of us!

[MrEWhite]

Called the venue and they said my seat was still set in stone, but the pit will still be there in front.

Kinda pissed as I thought I'd be right up at the stage, but whatever, still seeing NIN! :D

[ninlive]

I’m so excited. I am counting down the days.

[MrEWhite]

I’m so excited. I am counting down the days.
Same here!

[NotoriousTIMP]

Got my pair of tickets! Pumped to finally see the band after FOUR YEARS

I would double check on this because the seats now start at Row J with Rows A-I removed for the pit.

It was like that when I called them before. On the phone with TM right now just to be sure.

[MrEWhite]

Called TM and they said the seats are pushed back, so row A and such still exists. They said they're working on fixing the seat mapping as we speak.

[buckets of lube]

I got a ticket on the far end of section 1, but I may end up reselling.

Ended up reselling on Stubhub with a $10 loss, but fuck it, I got better tickets for better venues elsewhere. Hope everybody has fun! This being the tour opener is cool in that the setlist will be totally unexpected.

[REPLICA]

I’ll be at the show taking pictures of and buying merch from the booth!

[REPLICA]

Oh, I forgot to add that my girlfriend, my friend and I will be in Section 3, row CC.

I wonder how they’re going to do merch design. I know John Crawford was gearing up for the tour when I got to speak to him recently. But since last year was going to be Cold And Black And Infinite part 2. That venue picture from FULLMETAL’s post reminds me of NTAE. Especially since this one hasn’t been given a name yet, aside from NIN 2022.

[NotoriousTIMP]

Where is everyone is staying hotel wise?

My girlfriend and I, plus my friend, will be staying down the street from the amphitheater - the Marriott City Center Raleigh.

Same here, only two blocks from the venue.

[fishtifer]

Some regular priced tickets have appeared on Ticketmaster today if anybody is looking

[magnolia]

Soooo, I had originally written this one off, because seemed like too much to travel to hit 3 shows in 4 days, but FOMO on the opening date of tour kind of got the best of me. We're going. :p

See y'all there!

[NotoriousTIMP]

One week left!!!!

[bobbie solo]

gonna be F5ing like crazy that night.

[Zimbo]

I am fucking stoked. Less stoked for my 6am flight home on Friday but...LOL all for [NIN]

[NickAcosta]

Anyone else going from la?

[Jaimie]

I was supposed to be coming from LA but realized literally today when I saw NIN post that the tour starts Thursday (this whole time I thought it was Friday) that all of my flights/hotel/rental car are booked to get in late Thursday which obviously won't work. Fixing it all would cost me around 1k and since I am seeing them at Red Rocks and Philly I've decided to just bail on this trip. :(

Soooo I have two tickets in Section 1 Row V seats 4-5 available for sale if anyone is looking.

[buckets of lube]

So a ticket that I already sold on Stubhub is now in my TM account, but I still cannot transfer it... this blows.

This will be huge if it affects folks buying on the secondary market.

**edit** I'm thinking you'll be able to transfer to another TM account closer to Thursday. Please keep us posted.

[Jaimie]

A friend of mine mentioned she took a screenshot of the QR code and her Stubhub buyer accepted so maybe that is an option?

no es bueno 😫

[buckets of lube]

Thanks for the suggestion. It's certainly possible since it's not a rotating barcode, but would rather transfer it via TM to avoid any issues.

[Jayson]

Has anyone who bought via Stubhub received their tickets yet?

[magnolia]

I bought through StubHub also, since I only decided to go, like, a week ago.
Email says tickets will be transferred by 10 AM on the 28th, the day of the show. Makes me sweat a little.

[magnolia]

Well, j/k. My tickets just transferred from the seller.

[buckets of lube]

Yup, I am now also able to transfer. Yay!

[ryanmcfly]

Can’t believe for the first night of a tour I’m not gonna be F5’ing on here. TWO MORE DAYS!!!

[bractune]

I have a pair of tickets to the show tomorrow. In the middle right behind the pit. Section 2, row U, seats 8 and 9. Selling them for what we paid or best offer. Message me for more details

[spahn]

if there is a tour poster, would someone be so kind as to pick me up an extra copy. I am good for the $$ if you been on ETS for any extended amount of time.
I also help run nincatalog.com so you know where to find me. :)

[trollmanen]

I just got an pre-recorded phone call earlier today from either Ticketmaster or Red Hat Amphitheater about tomorrow’s show. Doors at 5:30, show starts at 7:00. They have a bag policy in place, 12”x12”x6” or smaller clear bags only or a small clutch. So I’m guessing poster tubes are not going to be allowed in. I plan on bringing rubber bands and a folded plastic bag or record tote bag in my pocket to carry merch.

They might be soundchecking right now?

[HeckyDee]

Soundcheck ended around 9:30. I was able to watch maybe 2/3rds of it from the hotel parking garage that literally overlooks the venue.

[ryanmcfly]

Today is the day

What did they play?

[magnolia]

Sitting in ATL airport at my gate waiting for connection to Raleigh. Honestly hadn’t hit me until just now that NIИ LIVE IS BACK TODAY!!! So fucking excited

so that was you. Did the guard ever say anything about priority entrance?

EDIT: I know the second song was Somewhat Damaged.

[Zimbo]

Sound checking March of the Pigs right now.

[NotoriousTIMP]

Sound checking March of the Pigs right now.

pretty sure they were just playing live tracks over the PA.

here is a quick shot of the merch table

poster is limited out of 250

[sonic_discord]

Only 250? I hope they make more for Red Rocks and the other shows in Sept. or those posters are going to sell out 5 minutes after doors open.
Missed opportunity to have a big lower-case fiery backwards "n" on the back of the Broken hoodie. Why would they use the tracklisting? I still want it, though...

[Zimbo]

Could have been Pa only yeah.

Closer too, then.

Gave up and now Sanctified are soundchecking with vocals.

[klyrish]

Was it the same version of "Sanctified" as the last few tours or yet another new interpretation?

[MrEWhite]

Called the venue and they said my seat was still set in stone, but the pit will still be there in front.

Kinda pissed as I thought I'd be right up at the stage, but whatever, still seeing NIN! :D
Welp, look like they lied to me. Went to the box office and asked what was going on in my situation and they said I’d need to go to guest services once the doors open and get my ticket converted to a row with seats. Fucking hell man.
