I'll start this by saying: My girlfriend is short, like 5'2. We have never been to the venue before, but judging from the pics I'm finding online, it looks like if we are not in the front, she will not be able to see. Does anyone know if you can stand and watch the show from the balconies or are they strictly walkways for the upper level bars? If you can watch it from up there, is it a good idea?

Hey, no worries. You and your girlfriend can easily enjoy the show with a great view from the second level balcony. Just make sure to get there as fast as you can bc even the balconies fill up a bit. Have fun dude!

I was lucky to get a ticket for the 25th from a very kind, generous soul, for which I am EXTREMELY grateful and I'm so looking forward to the show! By chance, I managed to score a second night's accommodation in NYC and wondered if any lone attendees with spare tickets could do with some really good company for the show on the 26th? I feel this is a bit greedy as I am fortunate enough to get to go at all - more than many would have the chance to do. It's just the thought of me and NIN being in the same city at the same time - I've gotta try at least!

If I don't manage to hook up with any of you, hope you all have a great night!

Oh my goodness. So looking forward to this show.

Hey, guys!

I've NEVER seen NIN before...does anyone have an extra ticket to either the 8/25/09 show or the 8/26/09 show at Terminal 5 in NYC that I could buy? Willing to cover all costs of the ticket including ticketmaster charges. Please PM me.

I've tried to get a single ticket through both this site and ticketmaster, but no luck.
I'd sincerely love to see them play live just once before they stop touring. Thanks, everyone.

(Also going to post this in the 8/25 forum, not to spam, but just in case someone has an extra ticket and is only checking that forum date.)

Hey all,

My partner and I are devastated that we haven't had the best of luck in getting tickets for our favorite band's last few shows. If any of you kind souls happen to stumble upon two extra tickets I could buy off you, I would be forever grateful. My email is azviaguine@yahoo.com.. Please let me know, I appreciate the help tremendously in advance!

stop that already... it's very very distracting, some of us are trying to concentrate around here!

Debating on heading up to the city uber early to get on line.
Not overnight early *too old for that*, but......

by the sounds of it, if you get there relatively early (like before noon) and position yourself right, you might get to the front riding the "surge" that inevitably happens as soon as the band hits the stage.

also, T5 has a lot of balcony frontage. depending on your need/aversion to be in the thick of the pit, the show might be more enjoyable from an elevated balcony view. also, rail is rail - be up front on the balcony, and you'll have an unobstructed view of the stage. useful for those of limited height

I think I would like a balcony spot.... I remember my pit days... I am not as tough as I used to be! LOL I just have to co-ordinate with the gal I'm meeting now.

And sorry.... I am very bouncy. How I managed not keep calm and not *squeeeeee* when I met Trent in Camden...
no freakin' clue!

obviously balcony rails don't go as fast as stage-front rail - there's more balcony to go around (2 balconies, each going around 3 sides of a large floor). but don't dottle, they will fill up.

there is also a raised area at the back of the floor, with a bar behind you. if you wanna drink, have a raised view and be dead-center (but a little far away), that's another sweet spot to catch the show from.

and don't you (or anyone else) ever apologize for bouncing. the world needs more bouncing. corsets optional.

I recently tore up my ankle and I'm now on crutches, but no friggin way I'm missing this show! This is gonna sound pretty pathetic, but does anyone know if T5 has a handicap accessible section?

it's not pathetic, and yes they do - talk to security on your way in (or even while waiting in line). they'll hook you up. pathetic would be insisting on being in the pit despite your injury and trying to hang with the moshers.

Disc 1 of the Fragile Tuesday night, Disc 2 on Wednesday

If anyone with the last name Ryan, wants a NIN ticket to the Aug 26th show in NY let me know. I need to know by Tuesday. I cant make the show and they will only allow me to transfer the tickets to some one with the same last name as me. I have two tickets but one is for my friend who wants to go and one will be for you.

The person who's name is on the tickets is still going so you will be their +1. I will send you all their info once you have paid on paypal (i am a verified user!). I will also send you my # and email in case you have any questions. You will need is your paypal invoice for identification.

to everyone who has a ticket...enjoy the show, its gonna be f*ckin awesome!
there is a rumor goin around that david bowie might show cause he lives in manhattan

Why waste your time with eBay, when you cant just meet the person at the venue?
