Who forgot that tickets went on sale 10am Cleveland time and not 10am Los Angeles time? This guy!
Man, what a crappy system. Join the waiting room, get in to purchase, try a set of tickets, get a message saying they're gone, try again 5 more times, get booted for trying too many times, join the waiting room, repeat ad nauseum.
Even when I gave up and decided to go for lawn tickets, I had to try half a dozen times as it kept telling me the seats were gone. It seems like they only list one set of lawn tickets at a time, so if you don't click it first, you have to try again. So sloppy.
Anyway, see you in Cleveland!

I settled for a pair of lawn, but went back in and kept trying. I was able to get seats, not great seats, but closer. When it is closer to the show date I'll have an extra pair for anyone wanting to go in with me. Face value of course.

Got my tickets for the lawn, hopefully it sounds halfway decent there so I can get a good tape.
(Good sign they used the early 80s ministry font... Hopefully Al brings the noise)

Man, that was some Hunger Games bullshit. After 30 minutes and getting kicked twice I managed to score a seat just right of center 2/3 of the way up the pavilion for under $100 w/ fees. I'm kind of shocked.

I'm glad to have tickets and I'm glad they're seats. I'm too old for a pit now.
Last time I was in one I ended up with a broken rib, and that was many years ago even. It was the Wave Goodbye tour.
I just looked it up, that was June 2009........13 years ago.....holy fuck, it doesn't feel like that long ago. And I've seen NIN since, but I've always grabbed seats.

I have my Wave Goodbye and Tension prints framed side by side in my office and Tension is the one that blows my mind when I think "Fuck that was 9 years ago??" WG was a different stage in my life and, to me, it seems like 13 years ago. But Tension...seems so much more recent than that.

Got lawn seats, I guess something is better than nothing. The next burning question is should I pre book lawn chair rental.....
Throbbing Member
If they have that then do it. Also check if you can bring your own chair or blanket. If you can bring a blanket that will help mark your spot from people who will literally show up late and stand/ sit in front of you. Finally get there early and cop a spot on the front edge of the lawn if you don't want people in front of you.

I'm just going to wait for secondary market and get either PIT or bomb ass nice seats. The pre-sale was bullshit. I followed all the "rules" and when it started it would not even give me a number of people ahead of me, just "calculating...". It eventually let me in but all that was available was "lawn seats". I'm not going for "lawn seats" like at Tinley Park in Chicago Land, those suck.

Hopefully you get another crack at it on Friday.
Throbbing Member
Well I just got approved for WFH on Friday so we'll see. Thanks!
Stubby Member
I'll be trying again on Thursday and Friday, there is some kind of Rock Hall/WMMS presale happening on Thursday too.
Flaccid Member
Got lawn tickets, never been to this venue before. Is it pretty good?
Throbbing Member
It's kind of like Tinley Park in the Chicago Land area except better acoustics (but that ain't saying much as Tinley Park is hte shittyist.)

Anyone know where I can get Thursday’s presale code? I couldn’t get tickets for today’s presale in the pit and I want to try my luck again

Keep looking here and on reddit. There should be plenty of people still on the HOF mailing list.Anyone know where I can get Thursday’s presale code? I couldn’t get tickets for today’s presale in the pit and I want to try my luck again

I have Lawn tickets too! I dont care, first NIN Show in the States for me! Driving from Montréal to see this epic show! I will still give a try friday for better tickets.

Settled for a seat, paid way too much for it but it's a good seat. Trying again Friday, but damn I think I used all my luck securing pit tickets both nights last year. If anyone's willing to sell or trade+sell a GA ticket, I have a seat that would be excellent for recording. I just need to move around.

Got lawn tickets, and I'm stoked! First of all, at least the price was right, you can't beat $30 for a ticket, and I'm kind of on a budget right now so it was a lifesaver! And I saw (while not at this particular venue) two of the NIN/Soundgarden shows from the lawn and it sounded great and gave a good look at the stage show as a whole. Sure, nothing beats being up and close but this is still a huge win!
Stubby Member
Searched relentlessly during the presale. Finally about 30 minutes into the sale I was able to nab pit tickets. So excited. Today I was thinking about the potential set list and was wondering if it will be PHM heavy. Or even the album in full?! Given all the facets of the location of the show, timing, etc.
Stubby Member
I am thinking that too, which makes the flights and such totally justifiable. Still got Something I Can Never Have on my list of songs to experience live.

Anyone receive the Live Nation presale code? I got an email yesterday from Live Nation with a presale code for a band I've never heard of but nothing for NIN.
Throbbing Member
CURTAIN
At the moment, the live nation site is acting super wonky, which does not instill faith that i'll be able to get tickets this morning
Active Member
Oh ok, that's the same code from that email they sent me for some other band. Thanks!
And yeah the site is acting weird. It just let me add two tickets but then it errored out when loading payment info
Edit: Or not, it just let me buy 2 tickets!

I started better today, at 1510... then it took 10 minutes to go down, 5 at a time, to 1347 when it said "The queue has been temporarily paused." WTF?
Stubby Member
Same, my friend is seeing that, never saw that before... can't be a good sign...
Flaccid Member
Buying concert tickets shouldnÂ’t be this difficult. I miss the days of getting tickets from Music Today when the fanclub was around.
I am super excited for the show and the lineup. We are gonna have a great time!! I just wish my 50 year old ass was gonna be in the pit.
