Ok. So I'm definitely gonna hit up Irvine and then maybe Hollywood. Since I'll be going alone, I don't have to worry about ticket limits. I didn't get the chance to meet any ETSers at the Staples Center last time, so I hope to meet you guys this summer.
Now I'm 0000
Ah. Thank you — I was 99% of the way there. I even clicked on a presale link, but that one didn’t lead to MusicToday … plus it was in Portuguese.Originally Posted by m15a
My vote’s for NINgarden since no one with any taste calls NIN “Nails.”

They were probably the best live act I saw last year. It'll be interesting to see how fans of Soundgarden and NIN take to Death Grips live. They're incredible really.
Anyway, so I'm certain this will probably be Nine Inch Nails only time in North America this year? I would very much love to go to that show in Chicago at Tinley Park but they scheduled the show the week after Pitchfork Festival and my vacation time is set up to where I get back the Tuesday that week of the show..it doesn't really make sense to come back that Tuesday and then leave again Thursday for the NIN show. It's a shame because I would've loved to have seen this show. I'll still weigh my options I suppose but I really hope to go to this tour just for NIN and Death Grips together.
Does anyone think Nine Inch Nails will tour again in the fall for North America or is this NIN 2014's last US stop?

I'm still hoping they'll tour with QOTSA come September. Both of their schedules free up then -- at least what's been made public.
Active Member
If they tour again in 2014 in the US, it would have to be some sort of winter jaunt extending to 2015. I can't see them announcing another US tour shortly after or before going on this one to be honest.

just emailed Musictoday about max ticket in presale issue (2 or 4 depending on where one looks)
We shall see if they reply
Bent Member
Why? This leg with Soundgarden isn't much more than a month long, into late August.
Bent Member
That's just a reseller/scalper. They often sell tickets before they actually go on sale. If you read the fine print on most of those sites, they're only obligated to sell you the ticket you've picked, or one deemed "better" than it. So they're just speculating.

What is it? All I get when I go to page is a loading page that never goes anywhere.
EDIT: nevermind, someone already answered my question

NINgarden sounds acceptable. Let's go w/that.Ah. Thank you — I was 99% of the way there. I even clicked on a presale link, but that one didn’t lead to MusicToday … plus it was in Portuguese.

I sometimes call NIN 'nails' among my friends that are fans. And I have plenty of taste!

First off, they've been on tour nearly the whole entire year. Secondly, if they were announce a whole tour with or without Soundgarden with other dates, they likely would've been announced all at once. Third, they're hitting all the major markets on this tour, seems pretty redundant to announce another US tour in such a short period of time, considering they've covered all those markets with Tension and more and some of the same markets with this tour.

Well no Buffalo date or Darien lake date ( Not surprised) , leaves me with road trips to Toronto or Clarkston or both...Doesn't look like theres room to even add on dates..
Anyone care to speculate there "MAY" be a fall Club type tour? Or do we think this will be the last leg in the US?
Flaccid Member
Do these nin.com tickets include a meet and greet option for more $'s or not? I don't see a mention of it one way or the other and I know they did it for the first leg of their Tension tour last year and I missed out in St. Paul. Have the finances and means to see them this time around and am hoping they are either included in the nin member presale tickets or are added later..

I definitely don't recall meet and greet options for the presale last year?
Stubby Member
They did that for select Wave goodbye shows ( Donations for Eric?? ) , not this tour , unless I missed it..
Bent Member
St. Paul was the first show of the tour, so they decided to buy the line-sitters a bunch of pizza, and some of the band members came out to say hi. There was no meet and greet.
Hairy Member
According to Soundgarden's website, their pre-sale is the same time during the NIN. WTF? I thought the Soundgarden pre-sale was Tuesday? This is gonna be a shit storm...I hope I can get through the website.
Hairy Member
Trent will take another 4 year hiatus from touring after this one. How much do ya'll want to bet?
Hairy Member
yeah - twitter for them said Tuesday - their email sent out with the password said Monday for SG presale.
Please no one post the password on the public forum here - it only makes it harder for everyone to get tix.
None of their links to the ticket sale sites work though - ticketmaster seems to have changed them all/removed them.

We've been down this rode before. Again:
At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from critics, the album received an average score of 70, which indicates "generally favorable reviews."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_An...tical_response
As for album sales, again, a few hundred thousand in 2012 for an old-school rock band is very respectable.

Soundgarden's website currently blatantly lists the password so I don't think it's intended to be secret. If they're using Ticketmaster then ideally it will be a different pool of tickets from NIN's sale anyway.
Active Member
I don't know if I'd go that far, but it wouldn't surprise me.
Active Member
Does the NIN presale work via ticketmaster?
Bent Member
According to the Soundgarden site, Death Grips will not be playing at either the Chicago or Toronto shows.

Nope, NIN presale is artist direct through musictoday.
Hairy Member
damn. Hopefully they have allotted a certain # for NIN.Com pre-sale and a certain # for Soundgarden. If so, we will just have to worry about the servers crashing. This is what happens when they co-headline with a large band. People panic about pre-sales.
Bent Member
The Soundgarden presales might not come with fancy tickets/early entry if they're doing it through Ticketmaster.
Edit: and their FB page says presales are Tuesday, with a different password than the one that's on their Web site (which says Monday).

oh - ok well then ignore me then.
Active Member
I'm not too worried about getting tickets. Even if you waited until Friday, you should be okay.
Hairy Member
well, if you are a seat snob like me - partly caused by getting such good seats to so many NIN shows through their presales.
then its stressful
Thing with the hollywood bowl is - its a fantastic venue - BUT, its a very large venue - and even behind the boxes feels "far away". I dont just want tickets - I want "good" tickets.
Ahh but it will be whatever it will be. I actually just wish the presales were spread out more - as I would like to do a few of the shows.
