I've never been to Terminal 5, so I checked out this venue on street view for a place to pee while waiting on line...is this the only part of the city without a starbucks? I thought for sure there had to be one on every corner or the universe collapses.

I currently have 2 extra tickets that aren't 100% spoken for yet.. I got 4 all together and as long as me and my friend get to go, I don't really care who gets the other 2 from me.

So just to vent, I signed on to ticketmaster at 5:00pm and 01 sec on the day of the presale for this show and the 26th. Denied, SOLD OUT. Fine, Ill try the general public sale. Again 5:00 pm and 01 sec. SOLD OUT. Then out of a masochistic morbid curiosity, I check ebay. Apparently some people got tickets, and now so can you for $300. What about this paperless BS to make sure tickets go to fans and not greasy scalpers. The system is broken my friend. I'll be the guy standing outside the venue with my arms raised in a V screaming "WHY, GOD? WHY?" I feel no better having slung this frustration onto the interweb, but maybe you can feel better commiserating with me.

yeah I felt the same way.. WTF? this pissed me off. I refuse to buy from a scalper. If anyone has 2 extra tickets for this show willing to sell at face value pls PM me. I have not yet seen NIN yet for this part of the tour and would like very much to go.
Thank you

Wow, I feel the same way! This has been a very souring experience! I have tried to buy tickets through the NIN presale, the ticketmaster pre-sale, and then the not really a sale ticketmaster sale! This is ridiculous! I have never had this problem. However, there is one ticket site that has over 30 seperate tickets for sale, ebay has 55 listings for tickets in NY. There are 5 pages of ticket brokers with NIN tickets for sale. I thought the ticketless sale was supposed to prevent this?!? I think this is just going to make entry annoying for thousands of real fans who had to shell out $300-$700. I think I need to become a ticket broker......

Ok, so not being from NYC, anyone have any recommendations for a hotel that's close to the venue and not expensive? Also, anyone planning on doing anything after the show?

I think we should all buy these ridiculously priced tickets from the scalpers and then arrive at the show and beat their asses and rob them when they go to "walk us in." I'm just sayin'...it might make them think twice about scalping in the future.
