HOOOOOOOOOOOOOTDOG
Scored a floor ticket AND scored a pit ticket for Deftones at the exact same time somehow!?!?
FUCK! I am so goddamn excited. It seems like it was a bloodbath too, a buuuuunch of my friends got the sold out screen by the time they got in. KC was $145 total after fees.
Just got in the queue for AZ. 2000+ people ahead of me and I was there early. Jesus.

This is crazy demand...
Scored four for El Paso up on the sides. Pit was still available. Husband getting pit for Las Cruces, hopefully, but he's still waiting.
AZ was a shit show. No matter where I clicked and what I did, someone beat me to those. Finally settled on a pair but they weren’t where I wanted them to be. TOOL was a breeze compared to this.

What a nightmare. I got in about 10 minutes after the onsale time, they had pit tickets still left, but I grabbed four seats up on the side, because we are taking our 2 kids who love Rage, and obviously taking them into the pit would be ridiculous. Husband waited more than a half hour to get into the Cruces sale and everything was gone, and he panicked and bought us 2 behind the mix board for what must be an inflated resale price already?! Makes me feel sick.
Good god I fucking HATE Ticketmaster!
WTF, I clicked the buy tickets right at 11am sharp and have been waiting in a bloody waiting room since... this is new. Never seen this for a North American tour before. I've never got put in line for a "waiting room" urgh...
I don't like this. The waiting room progress bar isn't even 1/4 full yet. I had got 5 hrs of sleep and had to set an alarm for this lol. God, I'm tired. Was hoping it was going to be quick and painless. In and out in 5-10 mins and could go back to bed. It's never that easy.
If I can't get floor, I might just say fuck it. $200 a pop for garbage seats doesn't sound enticing.
Fun fact:
Bands pay ticketmaster to be the fall guys on their behalf. The bands don't give a f u c k about you. Which is why this money grabbing corporate rock band is charging upwards of $190 a seat for nosebleeds on their arena tour.
I tried for Hamilton tickets, $190ea no matter where they were. I'd have been OK with that for floor tickets, but the floor tickets were gone when I got there, so I ended up passing.
got in at 11:25... whole venue sold out.
Everything.... nothing left at all! wow
Who are all these people trying to see this washed up band from the 90s?
45mn in the fucking queue... this really doesn't look good.
im so fucking pissed right now!!! This is complete bullshit!!!
I managed to finally get a floor ticket in my cart (needed 3, but whatever,,, take what I can get) and my payment wouldn't process. Credit card transaction error kept popping up.
Then my fucking bank called me saying illegal activity was happening on my CC... no it wasn't!!! it was fucking me trying to buy a ticket!!!!!
I am so angry right now it's not even funny.
2nd show in oakland, stick around guys, other big cities may get one too!
edit: got floor for night 2, this one was a breeze.

How long does it take a city to get an announcement of a 2nd date added?
I don't get why they are playing the Pacific Coliseum here, it's half the size of our actual arena...
All the other dates look like they have proper actual arenas and we have this half assed venue...
Hopefully they upgrade the venue to bigger one or at least add a 2nd date...
Tacoma on Apr 28 and Van on May 1. 2 days in between... can add a date on April 30th hopefully...
$125 before fees was a hard pass for me. Funny thing is, I have the money. I just don’t see the value.
Open question...is flat arena pricing - from the floor to the rafters - a thing now?
I have a group of 7 people that was trying to get floor tickets. I knew it wouldn't go smoothly. It didn't even let me in from the waiting room until tickets had been on sale for 12 minutes (!!!) and then I couldn't get anything other than nosebleed seats. Luckily, my friend managed to snag 4 floor tickets (I'm joining him on the floor), but 3 of our friends are stuck separated from us way up in section 238 or something like that. I'm glad I'm going and that some of us managed to get floor, but we really didn't want to be split up. I even had my wife trying on her computer at home and another buddy had his girlfriend trying too, but between the 4 of us, only 1 person got them. THEN I tried for Portland, OR with a friend who lives our there and that was even worse (we didn't get them at all, all that's left is the overpriced charity tickets). Fuck TicketMaster...

Yeah this was a shit show. I had ZERO issues buying four floor tickets for Slayers final tour in the SAME VENUE. Rage had always been popular, but this popular in Sioux Falls? I doubt it. Resale bots were out in full force for this one guys.
Anyways, my friend now gets to bring a friend to join him in the stands, since I got a floor ticket, it just took a little bit of work. But fuck though
I can agree and get behind people being disappointed with not getting tickets, but these are in demand. If there’s 20,000 people wanting at least one ticket in line at sale, not everyone’s going to come away with what they want- or come out with anything at all. And judging by how little the volume of tickets are on Stubhub for most shows, fans and not scalpers actually got them.
I got 2 nosebleeds in AZ. Not what I was hoping for, but better than nothing.
1 floor ticket for a weekday show in Tacoma... $488 after fees. I love RATM and RTJ as much as the next guy but hard pass.
Nope. Apparently they’re trying to combat resellers by pricing out 10% of seats, “Official RATM Charity Ticket”. I don’t care if the band isn’t keeping most of that cash and where it’s going- the pricing is insane. Go take a look at the El Paso show where flood seats are over $1,000.00. For that kind of coin the purchaser should be able to pick where the money goes. Would rather take chances with scalpers.
