Not long now until Tool hit the road for the first time in 2011 (and hopefully the last time before recording!). As we all know, Tool are playing the Big Day Out tour here in Australia in New Zealand, which also includes a couple of sideshows in Melbourne and Brisbane. As an added bonus Tool will be playing a show in Hawaii the week before this tour. Support band for… Read More »Tool Tour Update
It looks like the second Sydney Big Day Out isn’t selling as strongly as expected. An announcement from Big Day Out organisers today tell us that all tickets for the event on the 27th of January can now be used to get an extra guest in for free: The Big Day Out has announced a very special Christmas gift for punters in Sydney – all ticket holders for the Sydney… Read More »Second Sydney Big Day Out tickets “2 for 1”
The timetables for the 2011 Big Day Out has been released, and it looks like Tool are only getting 75 minutes this year, unlike 90 minutes that headliners get in previous years. Not sure what’s up with that, but I imagine there’s plenty of disappointed Tool fans out there. Hopefully the sideshows many of us are going to have no such restriction…
I was at work on Friday so wasn’t able to update you guys about an extra release of tickets for the Brisbane Tool side show. Luckily for us all though, Gold Standing tickets are still available as I write this! If you missed out the first time then make sure you get on top of this pretty quick, since I imagine there aren’t many left! Hawaii ticket sales seem to… Read More »Tool ticket updates, A Perfect Circle winding up
Ticket sales for the two side shows have now pretty much wrapped up, with Melbourne sold out, and Brisbane being close to it – at time of writing there were some silver tickets only left, all single seats. Ticketek sales for the Brisbane show went pretty smoothly, and Ticketmaster for Melbourne not so. My experience this morning with Ticketmaster was that at about 9:00:15 there were only GA tickets left,… Read More »Tool sales wrap-up, APC do Arizona
Well the pre-sales happened earlier today. Brisbane went about as smoothly as you’d hope. Tickets may even still be available if you haven’t got them already. Melbourne on the other handle was a cock up of epic proportions. In between wrong passwords, My Ticketmaster pre-sales and the late availablilty of Gold Tickets, there’s a wide range of fans, myself included who feel a little pissed that they missed out. Good… Read More »Pre-Sale Wrap Up, Adam Jones Interview
Just in case you’ve forgotten, Tool pre-sales start in about 20 minutes in Melbourne, and then about an hour later in Brisbane. You should already have the details via Toolarmy or your ticketing agent. As we all know by now, this pre-sale isn’t very exclusive. I get the feeling todays sale won’t end well for many. A few people have reported that Ticketmaster is already slow. Unfortunately I don’t have… Read More »Tool Pre-Sales opening soon
I’ve had about 20 or so emails today asking about the pre-sales, so in an attempt to try and minimize the amount of time I spend logged into Gmail, here’s a compilation of what little we know about the presales. As more information comes to hand I’ll try and keep this post updated. UPDATE Pre-sale details, which include a link and password to the sales are now up on Toolarmy.… Read More »Pre-sale FAQ
Blair has confirmed that there will be a Toolarmy pre-sale for both Australian side shows. Details will be posted before tickets go on sale, which is at 12:00pm on the 4th of November. Technically 12:00pm is lunchtime by the way, so I presume it’s then and not midnight. I hope this gets clarified, as I’d rather no stay up until midnight the night before unless I have to…
