Coma16 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Those are crazy ticket prices. Sadly, I'm not going to be able to make it to this show but considering that it is at Sound Academy (worst venue ever) I'm not that upset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transit getting there sucks, parking and cabs are stuck in a bottle-neck of traffic, and the layout of the venue is balls. The sound system is great though.Kool Haus is a great venue. I was at that Slash concert as well. Edited July 2, 2013 by Coma16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Kinda bummed. But fuck the Sound Academy and fuck those prices. I'll be having more fun in Russia, thank you very much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma16 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Also, this is the 3rd show in 4 nights so it could go either way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Also, this is the 3rd show in 4 nights so it could go either way...Not really an issue IMO. Governor's Ball was the 3rd show in 4 days, Axl had the shits that week, and he was still fucking on at GB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ88 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) Is it just an open floor? I don't understand how tickets prices can range so much. Unless there's only two prices, where $400 is for VIP access and $150 is for regular access Edited July 2, 2013 by RJ88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amir Posted July 2, 2013 Author Share Posted July 2, 2013 On a side note, noticed Nightrain has one month extension for 1,000 points. How do you go about getting these points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smaller than Kool Haus?I think they hold around the same, approx?Kool Haus is more spread out, Sound Academy is longer, narrower. The balcony is small, you basically stand at the rail and look over.There's no rows of seats up there or anything.Balcony has scattered tables and chairs here and there (if I'm recalling correctly).Lower GA is a sardine can.

James Bond Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 As awesome as the notion of Guns at the Sound Academy is, I don't know if I can swing this show on such short notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
