Toronto VFest gig

[wattershed freak]

A Foo "Ten Club" would be money.


Ya true but it would probably be less than that stupid COF membership I bought.

[DoubleM]

Ya true but it would probably be less than that stupid COF membership I bought.


As mentioned earlier on I think you can get a refund on it since the Foo Fighters didnt have a pre-sale.

And the COF is no stupid. It got me into Tool already and Radiohead in a week or so. I love COF.

[jennyroo]

HAHA! by money did you mean good? Thanks Jen for the clarification.
And I know that I can get a refund I was the one that mentioned it before. And I didn't necessarily mean stupid....it's good if it is useful to someone (like you) but sucks for me.

[I am Canadian]

I skipped class jsut so I could come home and get these, and now I can't get them!!!! I hate this, my teacher's going to be pissed.

[jennyroo]

I just called and she said you couldn't get a refund :(
She said that it states on the ticketmaster.ca page that there is NO CoF pre-sale and blah blah...so we are stuck with them!! If you DO end up getting a refund, DO let me know so that I can be like...UH YEAH. lol.

[wattershed freak]

WHAT?!?! god I spoke to the COF co-ordinator last time....is that who you spoke with?

I'm going to phone and I'll let you know what happens....but I'm waiting to get tickets before asking for a refund just in case.

[DoubleM]

You probably spoke to that Jennifer girl at the Hummingbird Centre, she has a pretty hot voice.

But yeah, just buy pre-sale concert tickets to any COF event and sell them to make your money back. ts rediculous how much the Tool tickets went for and how much the Radiohead tickets are currently going for.

Yeah I spoke to her....LOL her voice was alright.
ANYWAY: yeah. she said you can't get a refund just because there was no presale..
bleh.
hopefully someone else will play there thats good within a year.

Knowing me Im going to forget about the presale tomorrow. All my times are messed up right now.

[Cammy]

wait a second....so you spent $60 on something that you will prob never use, that at first they did say that tickets would be avail. on and now they won't give you a refund. That's shit man....I'd lose it if I had of bought it and wasn't able to use it for anything. Didn't you buy it before it was posted that the Tix wouldn't be avail. thru it? because to me thats just ripping people off. I'd say call again and keep asking for the persons boss. Someone will give you your cash back.

Yes I guess the wait continues for everyone. Wonder when we will get a pass word, I'm also wondering what seats they are offering in the Pre Sale.

well, it didnt say anything about the CoF not getting a pre-sale when the show was posted on Ticketmaster.ca last week for the day or so...i did mention that but I guess that didn't count...but you know? whatever. its ok. Its for Foo. yeah, its 60$, but we get a $50 tax receipt so its alright. I'll live.

[I am Canadian]

So we all know how well the Foo emails get around (sometimes they come after the presale lol), so I say as soon as someone gets the email they should PM everbody on this thread. I can't believe how complicated this has been!! I just want tickets now. And is there any way we can find out what tickets will go on presale tomorrow, because I'm having someone else get them for me, so they will probably just take whatever comes up.

So this is a bit off topic, but honestly I don't think we've been on topic for a while....I'm going to Toronto next Thursday for school and we are going to the ACC, the Eatons Centre and MOD on Much Music...watch for me on tv, if you can stand to watch Leah lol. I've been in the Eaton's Centre a few times and I think it's kinda overrated. For you people that live in Toronto are there any good stores around that area that I could walk to? I plan to go up to the big HMV......heaven haha. But I was just wondering if there are any cool stores around there or a place that I could find music tees. Any help would be appreciated!!! thanks so much

[tafom]

Check your emails, the newsletter just came, if you didn't get it you can PM me and I'll send you the password

blech I hate Leah! Music tee's you'll find on Queen St., but I'm not sure if you'll be able to walk all the way down to where they are (ok DUH i just re-read and realized you'll be at Much Music anyway so just look around there...there is a store by the Condom Shack that looks very small and full of buttons and patches, and in the back they have music t's). Look in Bluenotes though, they've had a nice little selection of music tee's lately actually...

[DoubleM]

I just checked my email and junk mail and I have yet to receive the password. Someone PM me please?

[jennyroo]

thanks for the password Tafom!! Unless....you were being sneaky and giving me the wrong one so that you can hog the tickets....hheee..that would be evil.

[DoubleM]

Thanks to both the peeps who sent me the pass. You think the password is case sensitive? I remember something like that might have caused me some trouble last year.

[Random_Hero]

I was JUST going to ask about the case sensitive thing. I got my password in the ol' junk mail box like usual which is probably why I didn't think I got the newsletter anymore. ANYWAY... If anyone finds out about the case sensitive thing please let me know. I'll be at the hockey game tonight (go Sabres) and running around this board and can be a pain sometimes...Especially after not being on it for a few hours because you nerds clog it up lol.

[wattershed freak]

I asked about the case sensitivity in another thread and I was told by "Footastic" that she used uppercase and lower case last week for the US dates and both worked.

That would be clever of me to trick you guys, but I wouldn't do that to you... plus I'm not even getting tickets because I'm going to be away on vacation on Aug 23 (damn), but I still thought I'd help anyone out who needed the password.

Good luck to everyone getting tickets tomorrow!!

Oh, and about case sensitivity, I don't know about this particular one, but I know in the past I used uppercase (I had copy and pasted from the email) and it didn't work, the password only worked in lowercase. I think it might have been the last Foo show... *edit* it was from the Aug 13 show, check page 4 of this thread

[sucker4foo]

i dont think im going to get presale.
you have a better chance of getting etter seats in general.
in my opinion.

Good luck trying to get tickets through general sale. I'll take any advantage I can get.

[I am Canadian]

can someone please send me the password, i didn't get it!

[abelfan]

Jenny!!! We need to talk--do you want to get tickets together or do you have someone else you wanna go with? I wanna go! Also, we need our yearly concert and this could be it!!!

[I am Canadian]

Okay I have the password now!!! Thanks, I knew I could count on one of you :)

[BIGphutte]

Could someone please PM me with the password, Im a long time reader but havent posted so I understand if you guys just think I signed up to get the password....:( Thanks

[perklunk]

Hey everyone, I haven't got the newsletter with the password yet, I know in the last letter #90, they had the american passwords, is the canadian password the same?

[wattershed freak]

I don't mean to be a bitch but there is no way I'll send the password...you just never know since these are your first posts...sorry!

[perklunk]

well how can I prove it to you, I could send you a copy of about the last 50 newsletters from my own e-mail account, also look at when I signed up, just cuz you don't post doesn't mean your not a big fan, I bet I know as much, if not more about the Foo Fighters then anyone on this board. and thats a challenge ;) :D

[wattershed freak]

Well I tell you what....if you do belong to the newsletter go to the main page of FF.com and click on current tour, there you can log in using your email address and see all the presale info.

[perklunk]

awesome thanks

[DoubleM]

To all of you people who have Circle Of Friends membership you should have gotten an email saying how to get pre-sale tickets through them. They give out VERY good tickets I'm in Row B for Radiohead so it looks like I'm going to be buyiong my tickets through them tomorrow.

[wattershed freak]

Email? what email? they dont even have my email address because I purchased the COF over the phone with ticketmaster.....I got my COF membership card and I can't even log in to it.

And now they ARE having COF presale.....cause there is still a big banner across ticketmaster that says there is no COF presale for this show.....I am super confused.

[StkdActress]

I'm in the same boat as you, except I gave them my email address over the phone but I haven't gotten any email!

AND to top it off, I lost the id number they gave me, do you know if it's the same number as my ticketmaster order number that they sent as confirmation??

[wattershed freak]

Ya mine is the same as the ticketmaster confirmation number.

[DoubleM]

Your confirmation number is your COF number. The email says just email them tomorrow between 10am and 5pm but not before 10am. With your name number email COF number etc etc and the two ticket limit and they will get back to you.

If you send in your email before 10 they will not process it

[StkdActress]

thanks a lot Double M

[Wannabe Taylor]

Is there going to be standing room at this one?

[DoubleM]

Is there going to be standing room at this one?


Well, at the Tool gig everyone stood up. But I imagine at a more mellow and intimiate show everyone will be sitting.

But simply, there is no standing room tickets. All seated.

[DoubleM]

Crunch time folks. Good luck to everyone.

[jennyroo]

I'm really nervous~!!! and i have to go to the washroom. GREAT. lol.

[DoubleM]

Wow, I didnt a pair of tickets through this presale.

[StkdActress]

DOUBLE M keep trying! I tried a few times with Best Available and it didn't work, and then I tried clicking on different sections andI gotbalcony

keep trying!

[dbinc]

hahahaha right at the back.... oh well
i'm so far back i can't even find my place on the seating chart

[DoubleM]

Thanks. Yeah, I kept trying and eventually some tickets popped up.

[BIGphutte]

How good is ROR4 Row VV, lol I've never been to a show here.

[Fooze Fighter]

Thank christ I got Orchestral. I original specified center, forget it. It was gone from the start. But I got Right Hand Orchestral, Section JJ. Still pretty good considering.

[DoubleM]

So as of right now I've got terrible seats. I'm sitting in Section BALC5. Row W, Seats 2 and 3.

Hopefully my roommate pulled through with our Circle of Friends account and got me good seats.

But yeah, I suggest someone with some photoshop skills take the seating chart and edit it so it shows where all of us are sitting. They did it on the Tool board only a suggestion.

[DoubleM]

How good is ROR4 Row VV, lol I've never been to a show here.


You've got orchestra. So the seats will be decent.

[StkdActress]

BALC2, row W, seats 71-72

I'm waiting on Circle of Friends for better...fingers crossed

[TedEdFred]

Anyone have any idea which section ROR5 is?

It's not on the seating chart...

Row VV seats 15-14, section ROR5........

Gonna get a friend to try and get better seats through the general sale.

[DoubleM]

The "R" in front of the OR5 means you're on the right hand side.

[wattershed freak]

orchestra row L

[DoubleM]

BALC2, row W, seats 71-72

I'm waiting on Circle of Friends for better...fingers crossed

I'm really hoping my roommmate and COF pulls through on me.
Seemed that tickets went pretty fast if they were selling ORCHESTRA seats.

[DoubleM]

So no one has gotten the first 8 rows eh? In the ORCH pit?

[dbinc]

http://www.hummingbirdcentre.com/pics/theatre.jpg

doesn't look sooo bad all the way up in the balconey =/

[tafom]

Wow, I'm getting better seats 15 minutes after tickets went on sale. I was only going to buy tickets if they were really good and then sell them to someone in this thread who couldn't get tickets (at face value of course), but still the best I was able to get was row W in the orch... better than balcony I guess, but I threw them back in hopes that a fan would get them (rather than a scalper)...

[DoubleM]

http://www.hummingbirdcentre.com/pics/theatre.jpg

doesn't look sooo bad all the way up in the balconey =/


Its a fucking beautiful venue. The sound was pretty amazing as well.

[Fooze Fighter]

The "R" in front of the OR5 means you're on the right hand side.

So then where am I? 'ORCH2 , ROW JJ'

[Wannabe Taylor]

I got ROR1 WW seat 45 and 46. Are these any good? haha

[foobabe]

I managed a single seat in Orch Row A, over to the side...... not bad, but I can usually get a single better than that. :( I hope they held all the good seats for you COFers, instead of the scalpers getting them. There really needs to be a better way for fans to get tickets.....

But, wherever the seat, this show (and tour) is gonna be awesome!:)

[DoubleM]

So then where am I? 'ORCH2 , ROW JJ'


Youve got amazing seats. 8 rows back. So far I think you got the best seats on the board.

[Fooze Fighter]

So no one has gotten the first 8 rows eh? In the ORCH pit?

Well section JJ would place me in the 8th and final row.

Youve got amazing seats. 8 rows back. So far I think you got the best seats on the board.

I probably could have had better if I hadnt select Center seats first, I had to back up and select Best Availible on Orchestral. I get really obsessive compulsive about these things.

Frankly, I'm not a fan of assigned seating. This is the first Foo shows I'm going too which doesnt have a floor option.

[StkdActress]

is it best to specify like, orchestra for example instead of doing Best Available?I tried that a few times before specifying and I finally got balcony

[DoubleM]

I made a mistake, there are 9 ORCH pits rows.

Anyone good at photoshop here? The could edit the seating chart and make a seating chart of Foo board members?

[tafom]

well since I have no life, I'll make up a photoshop image of the seating chart with the seats people have posted, that is if no one else is doing it...

[dbinc]

do you think i should try to see if i get better tickets at the general public sale dealy? i.e. do you think anyone will buy row vv balconey tickets? =(

[DoubleM]

well since I have no life, I'll make up a photoshop image of the seating chart with the seats people have posted, that is if no one else is doing it...


This is the one from the Tool board. It seemed like a pretty cool idea.

http://img107.imageshack.us/img107/8222/toolseating86ig.jpg

[Raine]

I got row K - I logged in at 10 and got Row U, and kept getting better seats. The best that I got was GG - and I went to accept them and got an error, and lost the seats... I'm going to try tomorrow for a better seat - they probably didn't put any of the first few rows in the pre sale - I'm sure I'll have no problem selling it for face value if I get a better ticket tomorrow...I'm so stoked for this...

[abelfan]

Good grief, someone's selling the password on Ebay for $4.99. Losers! :rolleyes:

[jennyroo]

I got two singles in Orch G, and then one single in row C...im not sure how it let me buy 3 tickets but whatever....!
my friend got orch HH centre....and a row B, we're all going to convene and get the best seats and sell the extras.
YAY!!!!

[tafom]

Okay well I started making the seating chart but a few people didn't indicate their seat numbers and the rows are really long, so I don't know where to put them. I'll just put them to the side for now.

The following people didn't indicate seat numbers:
Fooze Fighter
Wattershed Freak
Foobabe
Raine

Yeah, you might want to be careful with that. I had to cancel my Tool tickets when I ordered 6, when the limit was 2. Ticketmaster are a bunch of assholes and when you order more than the limit they cancel ALL of your tickets, so you're left with nothing. Ticketmaster does not really have a system on their servers or whatever that monitors how many tickets you buy it just states the limit and if you go over that they have the ability to cancel all your orders.

I'd delete my one ticket order just to be safe. That's me though.

[Fooze Fighter]

I'm seat number 73, in orchestral JJ. On the right side.

Yeah, we called in and deleted our other pairs of tickets. Just didn't want to risk it. Would have made a killing selling the tickets if we had extras too hahahah.

alright done. I got rid of Row G seat 3. I feel better now :)

1000th post.

Also, does anyone know how to change the Thread Titles?
I figure this thread needs a name change but I can't seem to find a way to do it.

[Cammy]

I had nothin better then Row W....so I made the decision to wait until tomorrow....hopefully it doesn't bite me in the ass. I tried for a half hour and wasn't happy. So grab what I can get tomorrow.....then save some money and bargin with Scalpers in front of the show. So see what happens....

[tafom]

Okay, this is what I have so far for the seating chart... the ones on the side I don't know where their seats are, and foobabe said she was off to the side so I just put her in right orch seeing that it wasn't too crowded over there... anyway here it is:

http://img487.imageshack.us/img487/7837/fooshummingbird9da.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

I'll make it fancier after tomorrow because I'm sure there will be more people to add then

Cammy, we might have a single available if you can't get anything good, I'll let you know so that you won't have to give scalpers anything...between my friends and I (3 of us) we have 6 tickets...

[NakedChase1985]

You would think for these pre-sales they would give the true fans better chance at the better seats. I remember for the Amp I would of been sitting one of the last rows before the lawn and ended up getting lucky closer to the show and landed 2nd row before the pit. I just think the real fans get ripped off. Except the few that were lucky to score good seats

[sucker4foo]

you all got quite good tickets.
mine was like, row y seat 18.
really really bad.
so i got my mom to cancell and buy tomorrow.
congrats to you all.

Wow, that is solid.

I also don't like how I'm all the way up there. Hopefully Circle of Friends pays off. I'm pretty confident in them.

[Cammy]

Jenny thank you very much.....I might just have to take you up on that offer. I am looking for two....but we'll see what happens for sure. This just makes me think that the foos need a fan club like the Ten Club or NIN or U2 or many of the big bands that yes you pay a yearly fee but are guarenteed killer seats. Ok...well guarenteed seats for sure. But I shall try tomorrow and see what happens.....If not it's time to sell my soul for tickets

[sucker4foo]

my mom just got off the phone with ticket master and it said that not alot of good seats went onsale for presale and that you will probly get good seats if you go right when they go onsale.
im taking up that option tomorrow at 10.

[jennyroo]

For places like that, you can't just click "best available". To them, "best available" means a seat, they don't consider the floor to be the best 'seat' when its Gen. Admin. I learned that the hard way! You have to select floors for shows like that. (Like the amphitheatre.)

[Cammy]

So looking for some advice then......think I should try best avail. tomorrow morning? Also I guess I must have pissed Ticketmaster off this morning. It booted me off after trying and now it the page won't come up...any reason that anyone has? I've tried other comps here at work and they aren't able to get it either. BUt as you know..the site is not down...weird....and now I'm worried about if it wil work tomorrow. Wow this is a lot of work to get tickets...

Way cool! I'm in Orch on the left side, Row A Seat 1. I went to Molson Amp last year and Sarnia a few years ago, met Wattershed Freak after that show. Looking forward to seeing y'all before/after this show!:)

Man, I really wish I was going to this concert... but I'm really excited for all of you who are going!!

[I am Canadian]

This is what I got:
Seat location: section ORCH12, row P, seats 89-90

is that good? should i stick with them, or cancel and try again tomorrow?

[Cammy]

I Am....I'd hang on to those seats. They are good and you shoudl be alright with them. My goal is to get somewhere around there...still keeping my fingers crossed right now for the Gen sale...

You guys ready for this one? I left work for 30 minutes so I could come home to get tickets. The thing loads up at 10 and they give me balcony seats right off the bat. I figured screw it I'll take them even though I figured I'd atleast get the mid section of the theatre seeing as it was 10:01am when it loaded my seats in. So I click the button to pay for the seats and what happens???? Ticketmaster freezes. So here I sit with no seats for the show I wanted. Looks like Mike is going to have to pay an arm and a leg on ebay for seats even though he's completely against it. Glad to see the rest of you had MUCH better luck than I did...

Can't you just keep trying? and try tomorrow? I think there are still tickets if you get singles....don't give up hope!

[Cobalt Blue]

God damnit did the pre-sale sell out fast today. I was ordering 2 (to my suprise, i was unaware there was a limit of 2 I was looking for 7) after i hit the submit button within 5 seconds on my dads account i did the same and there was no 2 seats left together :( hopefully i can grab 2 more in the gen sale tomorrow...

if i order 2 more tickets with the same account tomorrow it would just be cancelled right?

Yeah I think you'll have to do it with another Ticketmaster account. Thats what I'm going to do.

[sucker4foo]

AKDJHFSDJFD.
how does this work.
my mom kept trying for over an hour and all she could get was row y?
i think i will go crazy.

[Random_Hero]

Well, for those interested in knowing, after this morning when ticketmaster continuously told me that they couldn't give me two seats together I tried again just now. They apparently still have seats available in the balcony but they are high up. I bought a pair just to be safe and am going to try again tomorrow morning just for shits and giggles I guess. I'm still kind of disappointed but atleast I know I'm going now so that's good enough for me.

[TedEdFred]

Yeah I think you'll have to do it with another Ticketmaster account. Thats what I'm going to do.

To be safe, you need to use a different ticketmaster account with a different name, different billing address and most importantly DIFFERENT CREDIT CARD.

So basically, you need to get someone else to place the order for you.

[bmo311]

I want to get a single ticket, and the best I can get in ORCH ROW U seat like 83.

That sucks. Was every ticket available for this presale or can I try again tomorrow and try for something better?

Did anyone get row A's or AA's?

[sucker4foo]

HEY!
i just pulled that up!
werd.

Yes for sure...you don't want to take chances. I'm going to use my bf's account and see if I can get something closer or two seats together.
I couldn't get the CoF 'presale' since I had already bought tickets...so DoubleM she should be calling you soon!

[Wannabe Taylor]

I called ticketmaster a few minutes ago and they told me I couldn't cancel any tickets, what number did you guys call?

[jennyroo]

I called ticketmaster a few minutes ago and they told me I couldn't cancel any tickets, what number did you guys call?

I called 416-870-8000....I told them that the limit was 2, and that I accidentally bought three, so could I cancel one so that all my orders wouldn't be cancelled...they did it no problem. They won't do it just b/c you have bad seats..:(

haha... those bastards

[wattershed freak]

Okay well I started making the seating chart but a few people didn't indicate their seat numbers and the rows are really long, so I don't know where to put them. I'll just put them to the side for now.

The following people didn't indicate seat numbers:
Fooze Fighter
Wattershed Freak
Foobabe
Raine


Oh sorry...

my seat location is section ORCH13, row L, seats 5-4

[jennyroo]

Oh sorry...

my seat location is section ORCH13, row L, seats 5-4

do you know what the number after the ORCH means?

[wattershed freak]

no I'm unsure of its meaning.

I went through hell and back to get those seats ....it was so ridiculous right at 10 am I couldn't get anything....then my b/f got some shit balcony seats....and finally at 1015 I got ORCH row L.

[jennyroo]

no I'm unsure of its meaning.

I went through hell and back to get those seats ....it was so ridiculous right at 10 am I couldn't get anything....then my b/f got some shit balcony seats....and finally at 1015 I got ORCH row L.
thats good though! Better there than two single seats in different rows...although it could be worse, last row balcony. Or nothing at all!

[wattershed freak]

thats good though! Better there than two single seats in different rows...although it could be worse, last row balcony. Or nothing at all!


Oh ya totally! I'm happy with the seats I have.

[Cobalt Blue]

Yeah I think you'll have to do it with another Ticketmaster account. Thats what I'm going to do.

yeah hopefully tomorrow i'll have better luck.. house of blues is selling tickets too. so theres a slim chance i'll be able to grab 6 tickets tomorrow. 2 house of blues accounts and the 1 ticket master I didn't get to use today.. they'll probably sell out faster then that though.

[wattershed freak]

I'd be careful cause HOB links up to ticketmaster now....at least it did for RHCP tickets.

[Fooze Fighter]

Okay, this is what I have so far for the seating chart... the ones on the side I don't know where their seats are, and foobabe said she was off to the side so I just put her in right orch seeing that it wasn't too crowded over there... anyway here it is:

http://img487.imageshack.us/img487/7837/fooshummingbird9da.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

I'll make it fancier after tomorrow because I'm sure there will be more people to add then

Awesome job man!!

[I am Canadian]

I Am....I'd hang on to those seats. They are good and you shoudl be alright with them. My goal is to get somewhere around there...still keeping my fingers crossed right now for the Gen sale...

Thanks for the reassurance. I'm just glad I've got my seats and I don't have to worry about it any more. I really hope you get good seats tomorrow Cammy, good luck! And same for the rest of you who didn't luck out today.

[DoubleM]

Pretty obvious why you are going by yourself eh?

I couldn't get the CoF 'presale' since I had already bought tickets...so DoubleM she should be calling you soon!


My roommate ordered them. We split on the account but it is under his name, and he bought a pair on his credit card I just have to pay him back. They were really really strict when I bought the Radiohead tickets using my credit card so we figured it would be easier for him to do it and for me to pay him back.

[StkdActress]

wait a sec, they aren't giving COF presale tickets to ppl who already bought foo fighters presale tickets??? If I had known I wouldn't have tried!

Have they already contacted everyone?

[voodoo_child]

I've got a ticket for ORCH13 row L seat 1, does anyone know whether that's on the aisle or way in the corner of the section? I'm going to try the gen sale today and want to know whether I should give up this ticket.

[jennyroo]

I believe that would be the first seat in the row, Chris's side. I have Row C, Seat 1. I don't think its that bad but I'm not sure..

[psychgirl]

That looks good to me, if you have ORCH then you're right in the front - there's a post of the seating chart about 5 entries up.

yeah, i just realized that sounded like a pretty dumb question...of course seat 1 is the first seat in the row. what i really wanted to know was whether it is closer to the wall or centre of the theatre

[foobabe]

the public sale bites..... anyone have any better luck?

[TedEdFred]

anyone have any luck with the general public sale?

im not.

[]V[ANTIS]

not at all...ebay it is

[psychgirl]

what's the point of a general sale if there are no tickets!?
Plus, I was never even sent a note from the fan club or anything about the acoustic presale. I didn't think they'd be touring this soon with the new baby and all....this sucks!!!!

[jennyroo]

damn i think that sold out FAST!

Cammy: I'll check with my BF and see if he really wants to come with the seats not being together. If he doesn't then you can have the extra ticket...ok?

I hope everyone else at least got something! the page wouldn't even load for me after it said 'find tickets'...it kept going to the "tickets are not available yet' page and i was like...uh....!!!! and then it was too late. Wah Woh.

[Cammy]

Ticketmaster won't come up at my work..so my buddy tried...nuthin....Ebay or scalpers here I come.....sucks getting burned...

[Cobalt Blue]

BALC9 WW seat 85 & 86
BALC1 U seat 51&52


:( I did even worse at pre-sale then general... I was refreshing the page like every few second. do i just have bad luck or do people have a trick for getting tickets faster?

I had some quality seats the last toronto show. right next to the sound board, my favorite spot.

[Cammy]

Jenny...your a Saint...if It doesn't work out then thank you for thinking of me....if anyone has any extra's......I'm in for them for sure...

[StkdActress]

If anyone is trying to get rid of an extra pair of tickets, please PM me

[foobabe]

I tried the Amex frontoftheline access, had my sister's card, and got occasional single orchestra seats to come up. Wasn't getting anything in the general access.......

[Raine]

There are still a few coming up - try the American Express option, for every 10 no tickets windows, i get maybe 1 or 2 ticket options, granted they're not great tickets.

I got row K in the presale, and was trying to get better tickets in the general sale, but no luck...I had everything filled out within 10 seconds of them going on sale in the pre sale, and every time I hit new search, it gave me better tickets. Obviously best available doens't really mean best available. The best that came up was row GG, and I went to accept them and ticketmaster gave me an errow page, and I lost them, so I settled with row K - 20 rows back - could be worse...

[Wannabe Taylor]

I called ticketmaster and Tamara told me the show sold out in under a minute

[dbinc]

i think i'm depressed

[jennyroo]

there are already a plethora of tickets up on eBay...bastards. :(

[lorvar]

In all my years of grabbing great tickets, I have never seen this situation where I don't even get to pick from crappy tickets. This blows. They even have the option for front of the line amex holders when amex isn't even offering this for Toronto, only Vancouver according to amex's website.

[Now_I_Am_Up_In_Arms_Again]

I want to kill ticketmaster....

Anyone willing to trade a RHCP floor for a foo floor? LOL

[dbinc]

doesn't it stink when you got some good tickets (or any tickets at all) and then hit the back button THINKING/HOPING (but mostly expecting) that you'll somehow get even better tickets.... only to find that you get nothing at all

[lorvar]

We'll at least I'm going to RHCP, but no floors, just 100

[lorvar]

I should have gotten up early, like the good old days and be first in line. This internet thing blows now.

[sweetescape]

doesn't it stink when you got some good tickets (or any tickets at all) and then hit the back button THINKING/HOPING (but mostly expecting) that you'll somehow get even better tickets.... only to find that you get nothing at all

I did that yesterday about 6 times, and then did it again today and have nothing. Should've remembered that shitty tickets are better than no tickets...

[jennyroo]

so...did ANYONE get tickets this morning?

[nicole]

I had 1 ticket come up in row N in the orch but when I went to buy it it crashed of course ... luckily I had got 1 ticket in row H during the presale

[tafom]

There are still solo tickets for amex left if anybody has an american express card... I can't believe how fast they sold out. Luckily most of you guys got your tickets during presale, but still, it's crazy!

[lorvar]

I can't believe I just bought from ebay, but my wife missed the last show here in T.O. because she got sick and I don't want her to miss this opportunity again. I got front row mezz for 275. At least I don't have to deal with morons in front of me or have to stand up to see over people.

yeah those seats are pretty good!

[lorvar]

I just won't tell her how much I paid,she'll freak out!

[sucker4foo]

fuck.
i honestly thought i could trust her with getting my tix.but apparently she didnt even get out of bed.
i couldnt even try because i had exams.
im just fuming right now...

[sucker4foo]

i swear, ill pay anything even barely resonable for a set of tickets right now.
anything.
anyone got an extra seat?

[jennyroo]

fuck.

see what i mean!! never trust anyone with getting stuff for you that you really want...
So do you have nothing?

[Cammy]

My buddy said he had nothing come up....so I start saving for a Ticket....this is most likley going to be the most expensive concert I've ever been too......but such as life...

[jennyroo]

Don't worry...I'm about 65% sure that Ted will give up his ticket. I'll ask him soon, esp. if he has to sit alone.

[sucker4foo]

yeah.
but i thought i could trust my mom
and i have nothing now.

[lorvar]

i swear, ill pay anything even barely resonable for a set of tickets right now.

Average price on ebay is $250 CDN for a pair, but it depends on your funds.

[DoubleM]

All these Hummingbird gigs have sold out less then a minute so far. Its always good to have tickets, even if they are shitty ones, just in case. Hopefully, everyone here gets a hold of tickets somehow. I might have apair, all depends if CoF pulls through or not.

[jennyroo]

yeah.
but i thought i could trust my mom
and i have nothing now.

trust no one!! not even your mom. Don't worry...maybe something will come up and you'll end up going...or, you could guilt your mom into getting you tickets from ebay since she let you down. What about the CoF connection you had?

Did Jennifer call you yesterday? she called me around 3pm...

[DoubleM]

Did Jennifer call you yesterday? she called me around 3pm...


Well, it was my roomie who ordered the tickets so they would have called him. But I don't think they have. Which is kind of sad. I haven't talked to him yet though, so you never know. You didn't get tickets through CoF?

[sucker4foo]

slightly more happy now.
row dd in orch.
but im going by myself seeing its 260$ cnd a ticket.

[LazyAzz]

Damn. This is what I got when i tried to get tickets this morning. Stupid ticketmaster. lol http://img383.imageshack.us/my.php?image=foobad9mo.jpg

[sucker4foo]

ebay is now your friend.
sort of.

[jennyroo]

Damn. This is what I got when i tried to get tickets this morning. Stupid ticketmaster. lol http://img383.imageshack.us/my.php?image=foobad9mo.jpg

aw....! that IS CRAPula.

DoubleM: I didn't...I had already bought 3 tickets from ticketmaster (and cancelled one) so she said she couldn't sell me the tickets....its fine, I asked her though where the tickets were and she said she hadn't assigned them yet.
I sent my email at about 10:10am to her so maybe she went in order?

sucker: did you buy the DD ticket? thats a steep price but awesome spot!

[LazyAzz]

Ebay. Gah! I didn't wake up early to order my tickets on ebay. Oh well. It's about time I started to realize that if you want tickets to a band you like you will have to join some kind of fanclub. I should have learned after U2 and RHCP but I am kinda slow. BTW what is COF?

Oh yeah. Anybody want to ditch some tickets my way?

Worth a shot eh? lol

Enjoy the show. Maybe I will see you there.

[DoubleM]

aw....! that IS CRAPula.

Aw I didn't mean to make you worry!! Why don't you either try calling your friend or call CoF and ask if all the presale calls have been made?

[DoubleM]

Aw I didn't mean to make you worry!! Why don't you either try calling your friend or call CoF and ask if all the presale calls have been made?

Yeah, I plan to get a hold of him later on tonight. If I get stuck with my shitty seats I am definitely going to upgrade.

[Cammy]

Jenny Your a Peach....I don't know why but I just have this gut feeling that everything is going to work out. Really....it's only money...and this is a once in a lifetime Foos Show....I shall be there. HAHA...Just tell my friend I can't afford a Tux for his wedding I have to buy Foo tix....really come on....he doesn't need a Best Man right?

nah....or you can still go to the wedding but make him have a casual wedding...jeans and a tuxedo t-shirt! LOL

[lorvar]

I'm looking at the calender for Hummingbird and thinking they have room to add another show if they really wanted to. I'm thinking they will.

[rclift]

How is the Hummingbird? I've got tix in the balcony (kinda far back I think....) and I've never been there before so I have no clue...

[jennyroo]

How is the Hummingbird? I've got tix in the balcony (kinda far back I think....) and I've never been there before so I have no clue...
Its not bad...don't worry! it only holds 3200 people and its a theatre that shows a lot of live shows/plays and stuff, so every seat can see the stage.

[Now_I_Am_Up_In_Arms_Again]

So uh... lol..... does anyone have an extra ticket for the show? Anyone at all? LOL

I got screwed on both the presale and regular sales and it's gonna devastate me to not see the Foo's with Pat Smear. And the last thing I want to do is give some jerkoff scalper from New Jersey 400 bucks for a single ticket...


So yeah.... I would be willing to pay for any shitty seat in the place....and again...if someone would like to trade for a floor seat to the Chili Peppers show at the ACC in exchange for a Foo ticket, then that offer is on the table too.

[SKP_15]

My roommmate said he sent the email right away. Hmmm, now, you're making me worry. Way to go. I don't want to be in the Balcony for this show.
Hi. I emailed COF too for their presale and hadn't heard anything yet so I called today and spoke to Jennifer. She said that the people who emailed her did get presale tickets and that they'd be contacting people next week. She also told me that ticketmaster can cancel all or some of your tickets if you go over the 2 ticket limit, so if you already have tickets and want COF tickets you might get screwed. I don't know how good the COF tickets are though. Hope that helps.

[LazyAzz]

Not sure what happened. Went to ticketmaster at 2:10pm and tried for giggles...and got two tickets. CRAPPY seats but I will be there now.

First time this has happened.

[nicole]

so i just went on ticketmaster now and was able to score one ticket in ORCH row C .. i dont know how that happened

[DoubleM]

I don't know how good the COF tickets are though. Hope that helps.

See, I don't think I'll get screwedb y COF. I bought my Radiiohead tickets through them and they were really upset and bothered when I used my COF account (Me and my roommate split it), he doesn't like Radiohead so I bought two tickets even though the account is under his name. They gave us a real hassle when I went to pick up the tickets so I just decided it would be better if he bought them and I pay him back (He's not a Foo fan either).

CoF pulled me amazing seats for Tool, Row K and even better seats for Radiohead Row B. I haven't got tickets through the front ORCH pit but I just want a better seat then what I have. Even though there isn't really a bad seat in the house.

[LazyAzz]

And I called my buddy over and he tried and got MEzC row CC. What is going on at ticketmaster?

[bmo311]

Yeah, i got ORCH K...I was going to buy that ORCH C ticket actually! But I liked the fact that the ORCH K seat was in the middle...just checked now and nothing available

It's gonna suck sitting by myself though

[Now_I_Am_Up_In_Arms_Again]

Holy shit.... I just scored one at orch row k centre!

Ticketmaster has regained my respect!

Thanks for posting about that random ticket availability!!

[LazyAzz]

No problem. I hnd my buddy happend to get two tickets each. I still don't know what os going on.

Anybody have an idea about seating? I am unsure of the difference btewwen balcony and mezz.
Which of these two sets is better? Mez2 CC or balc8 Z?
I wanna know who gets to bug who about seats.

[DoubleM]

Did he buy your tickets on the same credit card? Cause if ANY info is the same they may and most likely will cancel both sets of tickets. Keep the MEZZ seats, they are better than BALC because they are closer, I guess. But yeah, heads up, if you two two sets of tickets (4) tickets with any of the same info you should definitely cancel the other pair.

[nicole]

i just picked up a pair in the mezz row BB - i used a different credit card of course .. i really dont know whats going on with ticketmaster

[LazyAzz]

Nope. Different credit card and login at tickemaster. But thanks for the warning. Whata day. From zero to hero ;) My woman is gonna love me, especially after I told her we wee not going. Stupid tickemaster.

[bmo311]

You know that all these tickets are probably the cancelled tickets from people who ordered 3 or more from either the pre sale or today? Ticketmaster is probably cancelling these orders and periodically placing the tickets back on sale.

[jennyroo]

I'm so happy that you guys are all getting tickets! It was getting a little depressing in here!
I'm going to try and see if I can get one for Cammy since I don't think he's online anymore...

[LazyAzz]

I don't see how you could order more than two. The only option it gave. Unless they made a booboo and ordered two sets on the same card:account. I just talked to my buddy and he isn't even sure he can go. Give me a week and anybody who is interested can get the balcony Z seats from me at cost. No freakin ebay. I am a fan. And I would like to see someone else get the joy I bring. lol pm me if you are interested and I will contact you once I know for sure. One thing though. The tickets will only be delivered on the day of the show, at the show.
Thanks.

Apparently Ticketmaster online can't really track how many tickets you are buying...they only will notice after the fact. Yesterday, I ordered 3 singles and it let me do it no problem...so just be careful, you don't want them taking them ALL away from you because that would seriously suck.

[LazyAzz]

Thanks for the warning. Should be okay. Same computer, different login and credit card. He just happened to come over after I got my two tickets. got excited and ordered two, but now he has to see if he will even be in town at the time of the show. I should be alright. They can't expect everyone to have different comps can they....?

That is good news then. I can't wait for this show.

[pjonze]

Ticketmaster screwed me around royally during the presale, but thanks to my lovely Aunt taking time out from moving house to jump on a PC I got row 'Ythefuck?'.....at least it's in the building though and not hunched on the pavement outside sobbing gently which was a real possibility.

In related Foo/Toronto stuff I managed to track down a copy of this poster: http://www.gigposters.com/posters.php?poster=62357 it was the first Foo gig I ever attended.

[bmo311]

Yeah, I keep checking just for the hell of it, and it looks like its sold out...anyone wanna start up a group called "The Singles" and hang out? Hahaha, all the people who couldn't get a pair and are going alone...

Yeah, I keep checking just for the hell of it, and it looks like its sold out...anyone wanna start up a group called "The Singles" and hang out? Hahaha, all the people who couldn't get a pair and are going alone...

haha, well now that my two friends just backed out i'll join! :D

or how about a group for those who have to work at 9 the next morning....back in ottawa...

[jennyroo]

the guilt trip always works!! YAY

[pjonze]

that´s a long way from home paul ;)

True, but I'll take it where I can get it & the fact it's during the 6 weeks summer holidays doesn't hurt at all. Well, the cost of flights hurt the bank balance, but y'know what I mean.

[sucker4foo]

now imma start the countdown.

[sucker4foo]

it makes me worry a bit that you´re actually flying over to them...

[sucker4foo]

i would.
if i wasnt deathly afraid of planes.

[jennyroo]

I'd be going to Hyde Park if I wasn't broke :(

[pjonze]

I'd be going to Hyde Park if I wasn't broke :(

Well, there we go.
Plus, seeing as I have family in T.O and the gig coincides with my time off work, I make a holiday of it.

[I am Canadian]

I got these seats yesterday ORCH12, row P, seats 89-90, but I'm not on the seating map that you made, so I thought I'd just mention it again. :)

[leafsguy]

[wattershed freak]

I've got a ticket for ORCH13 row L seat 1, does anyone know whether that's on the aisle or way in the corner of the section? I'm going to try the gen sale today and want to know whether I should give up this ticket.


I don't know but you are only 3 seats away from me :) I'm ORCH13 row L seats 4-5.

[LazyAzz]

Does anybody have a seating chart that shows the balcony? All ticketmaster has is the floor and Mezz.

**Never mind. I am an foodiot. I see the balcony listing behind the Mezz. Is it just one level or two? Never been to H centre before.

[leafsguy]

mezz im pretty sure is the balcony dude

[Cobalt Blue]

see what i mean!! never trust anyone with getting stuff for you that you really want...

damn right! for the show last summer my dad was going to order one set of tickets and i was going to do the other... and i had to come home from work and open the store late to do it. and i ended up ordering both sets of tickets because my dad is slow at typing and fell asleep. so no matter what i do my own ordering now.

[sucker4foo]

yeah, but my moms a computer genius(pretty much)and im a 14 year old who doesnt have a credit card.
and im not on the mappy thing either

ORCH row A seats 7&8

[CrazyDavey]

I found out about the pre-sale late yesterday afternoon and FREAKED, because I didn't get an email and knew nothing about it.

So last night I sat at home all depressed for not getting tickets. :confused:

10am today rolls around, and I try and get tickets but they are sold out!

Then I try "AMEX Front of the Line" and I get 2 tickets, ORCH12, ROW K, AISLE SEATS (81-82)!! :cool:

I CALL MY DAD UP... I NEED YOUR AMEX CARD NUMBER NOW!!! :eek:

The corporate bastards, that's the only way to get tickets nowadays.

~CD~

[nicole]

Im doing the same thing but im flying to England to go to Hyde Park - I have a sister over there

[sucker4foo]

386$ for 2 tickets.
thats the total.
oh well.
19.99$ for the billboard poster yesterday.
i think its starting to turn into a bigger obsession.

[billycorgan]

yay got my hummingbird tickets!
row E not bad at all

[Geanna Beanna]

I couldn't get any tix :( I tried for about two hours but I suppose they sold out at the beginning anyhow...just my luck!

I guess I'll be scalpen' it out all by my lonesome!

But congrats to everyone who got tix...I'm insanely jealous!!! ;)

[tafom]

Here's the updated map, let me know if anybody is in the wrong place... well it was a bit crowded, so voodoo child and wattershed freak are actually in the same row (row L) and sucker4foo and foobabe are both in the same row (A) but they were hard to squeeze in.

Those on the right that have letters beside their names means I didn't know what seats they were, but indicated what row they are in.

If I forgot someone, I apologize, just post me a reminder and I'll add you.

[wattershed freak]

That's awesome! Great job!

[sucker4foo]

goooooood job.
stubhub has some reasonable seats.
sort of.
not really.
big bucks.

[Fooze Fighter]

Wicked job man, and ticketmaster sucks.

[LazyAzz]

Great job.

You can move my CC's over to lctr about half way.


I will let you know who got the Z's.

Thanks.

[bmo311]

Hey, if you can add me to that little seating chart you made, that would be great...i'm ORCH B in the Left section, row 11.

Great job by the way on that

[bmo311]

Wow, I'm still trying to get my ex-girlfriend a seat, and there is nothing when you use Best Available, but of course there is ROW M tickets available with the AMEX shit!!! I need to find an American Express card

Nah you ain't the only one. I got screwed first by my credit card during the pre-sale eventhough there's enough funds on it and then second yesterday by the JERK infront of me who got the last pair before it was completely sold out within 20min. So, like I said, you're not the only one looking at a scalper and begging for a decent price lol

i think my dad might have been that jerk... the guy told him on the phone they were sold out now after he bought my tix... sry man hopefully you'll get some tix.... try a new thread asking tix... you never know

[tafom]

Here's another updated map. It looks like the majority of the people from the board are in the left orch...

Looking pretty solid. Im at ORCH17, row X, seats 83-84, if you wanna add me to the map.

[Cammy]

So I've had enough with Stupid AMEX and their front of the line ticket offers. So I'll show them....I just applied for an AMEX card. That will show them...

[leafsguy]

did you get that last ticket cammy?

[Cammy]

No, I don't have any tickets as of right now. A few options have presented themselves. So I have to see what goes on. I'm trying to work all my angles...So see what happens.

[leafsguy]

no i meant that all day there was one ORCH Row M Centre available through AMEX... thought you got that cuz you applied for a card

[sucker4foo]

the 2005 world tour one.
jumbo.
its bigger than me.

[sucker4foo]

:eek:
i just asked my mom if she had an amex card and she called me ungratefull and walked away.

[CrazyDavey]

I JUST READ THIS!!!

FROM FF NEWS:

The Foo Fighters much anticipated Acoustic Tour kicks off this July! Seven US dates have been announced at intimate venues across the country! A special 8-piece line-up will perform the live premiere of songs from disc 2 of In Your Honor as well as unique interpretations of favorites from the band's entire catalogue.

Joining the band on the second installment of the In Your Honor Tour are special guests Petra Haden on Violin, Rami Jaffee on Keyboards, Drew Hester on percussion and former Foo Fighter Pat Smear on Guitar! :eek: :eek:

[bmo311]

Thanks for the information everyone already knew.

[Cammy]

Oh....yeah that would have been the plan. But apperently when they say you can be approved in 60 seconds that doesn't apply to me. Either way after all these years of cursing when there is a Front Of The Line AMEX thing you'd think that I would already have an AMEX card. As for tickets...I'm still working some sources so we'll see what happens.
