No they just released the whole section B1.. I doubt they would have added them since half Section A didn't even sell. They add more rows there everyday. This was a "Sold Out" show.. My ass hurts more everyday from this crap.. No one is buying these since you can get them for a 1/3 of the price on stubhub.

Those section A seats are likely VIP tix or released VIP tix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of a tough pill to swallow when you paid $616 dollars for a pair of tickets. Fuck all the douche bags that gave me shit for my "tour overpriced for the demand" thread. If their was a day in between I would go to both shows.. By a cheap ticket for the second to ease the pain a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I remember telling you confidently that tickets would be a lot cheaper in stadiuns than thr Vegas shows. I definitely have to admit I was completely wrong. They tried to charge Stones prices in stadiums. Combine that with an absurd amount of stadium dates and its no wonder they overshot demand. Tickets should have been 25-175 before fees. I got a little screwed in Detroit, bought a floor ticket through the awful nightrain sale since it made you think it was selling out super fast. Ended up taking an 85 dollar hit selling it and buying a GA ticket. Only spent 150 for a GA ticket to the second Chicago show so it evened out for me. Sucks for those who over paid, though.

Maynard James Keenan Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Same thing happening in Toronto. There are over 500 tickets right now for a show that sold out in minutes (including PIT tickets). Although prices are still the same as the day they originally went on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or "It isn't over priced because they are selling out everywhere".. How did that work out? I'll deal but my buddy has already caught wind that we could have gotten tix for a third of the price.. Never mind when he looks around and the floor is half empty. I wanted to hit so many shows this summer.. Just ain't happening.. Looks like I am one and done.. Though if I am blown away on Tues I might look into scoring a cheap ticket for NJ.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank totally sucked on My Michelle the other night but he has improved on other songs.. Not sure I will be blown away as I saw them 3 times in their hey day and then saw them in Vegas. But I am sure it will be a great show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those section A seats are likely VIP tix or released VIP tix. They added seats in front of VIP box B but not in front of VIP box A. The lack of symmetry bugs me. Not to mention the seats at appear to be in the isles... They didn't just not release seats in front of VIP A they completely blanked out where there were once grayed out seats. So it is always going to be lopsided. Even more lopsided sided, I guess, since the stadium isn't exactly looking symmetrical in the back end. And speaking of the random unsymmetrical back end, another change on the map is that they added multiple rows to sections 142 and 143- not released seats that were grayed out, but added seats that weren't there previously. Available seats on the gray no seating area looks funny (though I have seen it on other charts as well). Um... I just read what I typed. Though it might be starting to look like a possibility, I promise I don't have OCD. Edited July 14, 2016 by sanity_lost I don't have OCD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell they could play the T-mobile arena 3-4 nights per week and sell out every night. It's not $100 mill in ticket sales for 6 shows, it's for the whole tour, up to and including San Diego. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article clearly says At six shows into the tour, it has already grossed more than $100,000,000 in ticket sales." Which Is extremely hard to believe and would most likely be for the whole tour.

They're six shows into the tour, and tickets are still for sale for the rest of the tour, but a lot of them are sold – $100 million total so far.

With the South America Tour now confirmed and most likely more dates to follow that this tour will bring In hundreds of millions of dollars.

Actually they would have been better off just canceling the second show. It looks like the upper deck Is closed and they still didn't sell any tickets.
