Seated theater show, huh? Hello, quiet evening with NIN.
Of course, I'm only kidding. Right?

Lots of phone calls, eh? I'm soooo looking forward to this lol. I'll be glad when this is over.
The direct event page is here, which includes some additional logistics information: http://www.bochcenter.org/buy/show-l...ine-inch-nails. 92.9 FM is going to be there playing music while we wait in the rain.. fun times.
The one time I happened to turn the radio in forever I heard a spot for it: http://alt929boston.com/event/nine-i...re-sale-event/
Radio stations getting tickets while we all have to wait is total bullshit. They better have mid to shitty seats...
It’s been ages since I had to line up for tickets to a concert. My current plan is to be there by 7am to scope out the area. DD opens at 6am so that seems like a good place to linger for awhile. It’s right around the corner from the Wang Theater. Weather forecast says chilly with drizzle, so rain gear seems wise. This will be my first NIN concert, very excited!

I'm going via the MBTA, which opens around 6:00 am, so I hope to be there by 7:30-ish. It's a nice theatre and bigger than the Orpheum, where they played in 2005--sold out in about five minutes, but that was via ticketbastard where you could get tix at any chain.
I was planning on getting there around 10am, but are that many people actually gonna line up as early as possible? If I just want decent tickets (i.e. don't wanna shell out hundreds for front-row seats), coming at 8am is overkill, right?
</looking for excuses to sleep in>
Math time! The Wang theatre has 3500 seats. Let's assume all 3500 are up for grabs and that 100 are held back for friends of the band, radio promos, and ADA/other sales. If there are 3400 tickets available per show, and everyone bought the maximum allowance, you'd have to be one of the first 850 people in line. Pretty sure that many aren't going to buy max for both shows, so that number creeps up. If they all bought 2 per show you'd get to 1700 people in line. You can decide on when to get there based on how many people you think will be in line by a certain time and how many tickets per person per show they will want. I have no idea what kind of crowd this is going to attract, so getting in line at 10 might be just fine (though you'll still have to wait for everyone else already in line to buy their tickets).
Personally, I was aiming to be there around 7-7:30ish, but that's because I want a shot at some of the closer seats.
I'll be there tomorrow. I'm the one with short navy blue hair wearing the dissonance shirt.
Likely getting to the area around 6:45-7:00. Is there an ETS bat signal?
I'm glad that the Longfellow Bridge will be open. Otherwise it's a huge pain in the ass to take the shuttle--an extra 30 to 45 minutes.
I could get seats in New Orleans, both nights. Willing to trade (2 tix) for same (2 tix) in Boston. Can trade in person in Vegas, if you'll be there.

Just arrived. Approximately 100 people ahead of me.
The line is stupid long already.
Just arrived... OMG line is stupidly long... Hahaha
This is ABSURD. I was like oh, this doesn't seem too bad, then followed the line to find the end... and kept following... and kept following... I suck at estimates but it feels like there may be near 1000 people here, no?
