DieselDaisy Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 It seems a bit like, beating a dead horse. The problem with this is, no matter how much you enjoy a show like this, you know deep down that you are just seeing fake cack. Like nugnr - you know it is not really GN'R without Slash no matter how much you lie to yourself. Deacon is the one to emerge from Queen with his integrity intact.

Bruno P. Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 If they come back to Europe I'll go. Even if it's just so I can say I saw Brian May live.Not gonna lie, that's a big part of it for me. Absolutely. I'd love to hear Marc Martel instead of Adam, but he can handle most of the material pretty well even though he uses too much falsetto to hit high notes, lacks raw power and the rock grit, and oversings most songs with his annoying vibrato.Yes. Marc Martel is awesome!He doesnt oversing. He does whats needed, just like Freddie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Bond Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Thirty minutes until the American Express pre-sale for the Toronto show. Ready and waiting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 We may end up sitting this one out. I don't want to be in the upper bowl and there's now tiering on the pricing. You're either paying $150 to be in the lower bowl or on the floor or you're paying $50 to be in the upper bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I can't even pop up a pair of tickets right now, let alone the three I'm trying to get. Ticketmaster, why you suck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 I can't even pop up a pair of tickets right now, let alone the three I'm trying to get. Ticketmaster, why you suck?I pulled up lower bowl seats in Toronto with the Queen Online code. Could only pull up upper bowl at MSG, and halfway back on the floor for Philly. Think I'll try my luck tomorrow in the Facebook presale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Would you care to share the code? I'd see where that gets me, but other than that I might just wait until tomorrow or Thursday. So much for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Finally got a set of three way at the back of the lower bowl. I'm going to pass on those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Alright now I'm just spamming the thread - but fuck yeah! Section 109 right beside the stage. After about 10:35 I was popping up tickets every time so I just kept trying. I literally got closer and closer, and even popped up some floors (granted, near the back). As soon as the 109's came up I about shit myself and jumped on them right away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Share Posted March 11, 2014 Guess you don't need the code now. Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Finally got the tiered pricing to come up. Was hoping to get in on the $66 lower bowl tickets instead of the $99 so I guess I'm still going to hold off for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Guess you don't need the code now. Sorry No worries. At that time I still wasn't getting any hits at all so I figured the code might get me halfway there. Finally I started getting some hits and sure enough, the 109's I grabbed. I almost jumped on a set of 107's but then my browser glitched, so in retrospect I'm glad that happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powerage5 Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Ended up getting seats for Philly and Montreal. Presales were all sorts of fucked up. Got halfway back on the floor for Philly and mezzanine right above the stage for MTL. May snag some MSG tickets at the last minute if they go low on Stubhub, since it's practically on the way home from Philly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you were able to get tickets for a couple of the gigs though. No kidding about the presales - I'd almost swear the system was glitched because at one point for a joke I searched up a "Best Available" for a VIP package (the lowest tier one that was supposed to be a seat in one of the closest sections to the stage) and even that put me right at the back.

I couldn't pull up anything at all this morning for MSG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Tomorrow I'm going to check in with the Toronto show out of curiosity to see what's left after the general public sale. Those interactive seat maps definitely make it easier to do so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val22 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Tickets are expensive, especially for the 100 sections. I would like to go to this show, but I heard A7X are on the bill for the Rockstar energy drink Mayhem Festival and I'm definitely going to that show.Also hoping that GNR come back to Dallas this year or early next year.Those two shows are most important to me for now.

Powerage5 Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 I don't think their prices are bad at all. They could get away with charging much more than they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fred_carston Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Im probably the biggest Queen fan around here and i have to say that im not happy with either PR or AL. They should have gotten Justin Hawkins when they got the chance.or just left it well alone after Frederick died Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I don't think their prices are bad at all. They could get away with charging much more than they do.That was my thought as well. You've got Queen's status, Adam Lambert's own dedicated fanbase, and the fact that Brian and Roger haven't toured North America since 2006. With all that considered, being able to see the show for as low as $50 doesn't seem all that bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
