ProLine4> On the lining up part. Since we were the first concert there was definitively some confusion concerning this. When I got there there wasn't a clear answer but there were several donators standing by the nin presale ticket pickup table. I was talkative and asked around to make sure that other people I was around were also donators. What they told me was some guy associated with the nin camp, TJ or JT something, told them to wait there. He later came back and said due to the short timing for planning and the number of people that donated there were some logistics being worked out. The confusion in my head only really lasted about 10 minutes or because I was hearing information from other donators and do you really believe them etc.. in the end I was in the right spot. Once they were ready for us, somebody came down and ushered us to the front where they looked up each of our names, who donated, on their paperwork and you and your guest got to go through the gate and bypass the presale and ticket holders waiting in line. The venue guys then scanned your tickets and gave people a yellow plastic bracelet, probably venue specific, if you had a GA/Pit ticket or not. I did of course so I got one. I already had my ticket but I would assume when the nin camp is checking off your names on their list and you bought the $1200 package then thats when you'd get your tickets. Then we got ushered on these short school buses, yeah yeah short bus, to the venue and saw nin doing their sound check. The buses were a nice touch because the venue in SB is up this paved road.

Thanks for all the info!! Do you recall if there were any ja.com presale ticket holders in your group? That's where my tix are from.. Just want everything to go smoothly!

I don't remember. I don't think it would be a problem though. The nin staff stood outside the venue and checked off your name from a list of donators and I gave them my printed email receipt, for the donation, at that time. Then I went through the gates and then the venue staff scanned my ticketmaster e-ticket.

Was there a limit as to how many things he would sign? I have 2 items and hope he'll sign both of them. Also why arent the Jane's Camp signing?? Isnt it the NIN/JA tour not just NIN! lol

At the Santa Barbara concert JA wasn't involved. I didn't expect them to be as Trent never said anything about them joining in. In my original post a few pages back I kept it positive as it was a privileged to be backstage but when I said I saw Dave shirtless as he and Stephen walked by us they did just that.. walked on by without saying anything. Granted, none of us tried to say anything either but maybe (a) they didn't know it was the group of 1k donators or (b) they're just focusing 3 hours before they perform. Either way I wasn't offended and I really didn't want to bring it up as they're probably really nice guys but I figured I'd throw it out there since the question of JA was asked. I gotta imagine they have their coordinators and nin has theirs. With something like the donation happening at the last minute maybe there was a communication loss between the two groups. Who knows.

Maybe you can shed some light on something for me: how do you know where to collect vip passes, do you get emailed or what ?

The backstage passes were given to the 1k donators right after the meet and greet and SSSC did their soundcheck. In an earlier post I mentioned that the nin camp maintains a list of people at that venue who donated (300 and 1k people) by name. Before hand we were told to stand near the nin pre sale table until they called for us. They escorted us by the ticket holders and presale people towards the front. They make sure we were on the list and we went through the gates. Then the venue guys scanned our tickets and we were off to the soundcheck.

What about the cities they allready played?...Not fair to us, that can afford to donate $300, $1000, or $1200, but cant afford to travel outta state to go to another show...So, what about the cities you guys have allready played that didnt get this wonderful oppretunity?...Like Austin, Atlanta, Phoenix?...U guys should rebook dates in those cities, sell tickets, and for those that went, and had tickets, those tickets be able to be used to get in2 the show, and all that stuff...What bout us?...Id gladly donate $300 if Trent and NIN and JA and SSSC would come back to Austin...PLEASE do make up dates in those cities that didnt get a chance to get in on this great, amazing, selfless thing, and to those who arent able to afford traveling to another state, but can afford to donate, and get a chance to meet Trent...Its only fair!...PLEASE TRENT!...I BEG U!!!
