Looking at what they've done, as a couple of places have done this tour, is to make the 'golden circle' pretty much half the standing area, hence offsetting a bit of the sky high GC price (i.e. spreading it around as there are a lot more people). Look at Berlin GC price for example, and that looks a real 'Golden Gircle' - but is an outrageous 160 euros BEFORE you pile on the fees! Prices off these tickets across the whole tour are insane. I find it incredible that people are doing a few shows- not to mention all the other stuf (travel etc) that goes with it. Fuck knows where they all get their money from!

I'm not paying €325,- for GC! I managed to score GC for Nijmegen in the presale (no early entry), but they sold out pretty quick. This year at Nijmegen I checked a few days before the concert and there were GC tickets available again. Also plenty on TicketSwap. Just be patient! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Copen and Prague last summer had pretty big GC areas, think I paid about £75 for GC at Prague. In terms of multiple shows, I tend to turn it into a holiday esp when its in the summer months. Even so, I can only manage two or three not the 7 or 8 some people mange to go to! Probably got a lot more money at hand 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inthejungle1 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Got GC for Oslo! Had to wake up at 4am New York time for it. Now I see TM has converted all the remaining Oslo tickets to Platinum, with GC now at 2.5x original face value! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teroz Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Selling much worse now, so this tour really needs to be canned after this leg. Something new or full stoppage, please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked at my old archived emails, It was about £100 for GC prague for me, through the ticketpro site. Im happy about this 2nd run, been trying to justify US sometime but europe makes it easier. My biggest question is why are they doing pretty much all the same countries as before, quite a few still not had a show yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the countries on the list are ones with economies that can afford them? They'll pretty much play wherever they're booked I'd imagine, so promoters in other countries must think that the amount they're wanting isn't feasible in terms of making it back in ticket sales. I'm happy at seeing them again, but nowhere near as excited as I was to see them this year. A new setlist would change that, but I can't see that happening.

Would have loved to see them in budapest, was hoping for a show on a 2nd run there. I'm probably not as excited but thats just because i was incredibly excited last year. I still think Europe deserved another run with the amount of shows theyve done in the states. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin82 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Still cant believe UK only getting 1 show unless they think its like doing 2 nights at a Stadium with the capacity being bigger i believe ive only done 1 DL in 2010 for DC Black Ice & wasnt fust on it there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arenas would have been nice but it doesnt bother me too much. Im guessing they think they can still sell stadiums in europe and will benefit from doing bigger shows but less of them.

I always prefer indoor shows personally- mainly as I think having it dark helps, as well as the obvious thing of wanting to see band in as small a venue as possible. I have no idea how these stadiums will sell actually- so many people must have 'ticked the box' this year, and there were loads of casuals at the shows. I can't see them paying the prices again so soon. I could be wrong though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
