Don’t miss the multi-sensory, groundbreaking experience that is Tool, live in concert. Do not delay – tickets will not last long!
Looks to me like plenty of room in the schedule for additional Sydney, Melbourne and Auckland shows, so bear than in mind when taking part in the usual ticket sale shit fight. Still bummed there’s no Adelaide show. I’ll probably look at going to either Brisbane or Melbourne though.
Tickets seem to be $180 for GA with tickets further back costing less. Expensive, but not unexpected. The recently announced Iron Maiden tour costs about the same. $700 for VIP tickets, which seem a little steep to me.
Tickemasters servers are going to go into meltdown on Wednesday
I’m sure the old “unprecedented demand” excuse will be trotted out
You would think they would stagger the pre-sales. So many people at one time is a recipe for disaster. Oh well, thankfully they’ve left gaps for additional concerts.
Will certainly be very surprised if there aren’t second Sydney and Melbourne shows
I’d say there will be. Melbourne will sell out in a flash.
Are you considering travelling interstate to see them, Hellboi?
If things go to plan Brisbane and Melbourne. Will most likely organise a Fourtheye meetup in one or both of those places
$700 AUD for VIP? haha. Unbelievable.
Believe it! I don’t think it’s great value for money tbh.
It’s really not. You’d be crazy to pay that price for VIP
Call me and my mates crazy then. No fucks given VIP Perth here we come
Have fun buddy – I have no doubt it will be a fun experience. I just don’t have enough $s in my bank account that I deem it worthwhile. For people with a bit more disposable income, I can see the appeal
cheers mate, a well timed bonus from work has certainly helped.
Tons of Americans apparently have no problem doing it so. As an American, I can barely relate.
I can see how it would appeal to people. The arguments of value are largely irrelevant if you have the money and inclination to go.
Ken Taylor for local tour posters. Has Rhys Cooper ever done Tool?
