And the third announcement of dates March was probably a bit much for people. That concert, which was announced in October, is now sold out. Some tickets are available for resale at Ticketmaster. We are genuinely looking forward to sharing them with you. From what I understand Silver, Gold and Bronze are the same thing. The only difference is with Gold you get a signed item. The level you purchase has no effect on seating.
All levels get great seating. I scored silver for NYC and I'm good with that. Have an awesome time!!! The quality of merch will be better for gold and silver the seats are handed out first come first serve.
Got floor tickets for the Philly show. Saw them just before covid hit. Tried to get a Gold package but it never gave me the opportunity. For those that have had issues I hope they all get worked out. Accidentally bought tickets for Arizona show. Can I resell them at face value? My ticketmaster app is showing "Not Eligible for Resale". Did see the presale code FAQ? It says we can only purchase 4 tickets to one US or Europe show.
I also got tickets for 2 show different venues but didn't know about the rule The world will be all right. I thought I would give you heads-up on bad news but so far Buffalo Keybank has a mandatory vaccination policy. If this Covid dies down they may relax it but being NY I doubt it. Those gold packages for San Diego went fast. Anyone score the gold? I am a silver recipient. Feeling blessed. Never got a code or a reply from customer service yet.
Not sure how beneficial it will be any more if I can't get tix before public sale You log in and click on your name on the top right of the page and then go to My Profile.
There you will find your personal promo code. You use that at ticketmaster for your date. OK, actually, I still hope. Thumbs pressed! But please: let me know :. No promo code! I joined tool army and can not access a promo code. I went to my profile and see where the code should be but its blank! Seems a lot others are having this problem.
Someone help! Anyone from Europe want to switch presale codes? I will give you mine to buy 4 more tix in Europe and you give yours so I can buy 4 more in US.
Please respond and I will post my personal email. Spiral Out! Got a Gold package for Cleveland, was trying for Louisville but it was sold out, 5. First time I've had something to be excited about in over a year. Just wanted to congratulate ToolArmy for finally running a meaningful and well-run presale. So many times, I was infuriated by the prior presales.
This time, they got it right. Nice job. Glad to see someone had a hassle free time. Just finished logging in with different browsers. Still can't find any access code for the pre-sale. Happy to be a member, but the presale drove the membership purchase. Any advise on how the access code is given? Look at your profile in the Tool Army area. You should see a "Personal Promo Code". Then go rock out! Was a shit show for me, safari and Firefox would NOT work.
By the time I tried chrome all the vips were sold out. Immediately after TA payment went through my presale code appeared on my account. Within 2 minutes - at AM, as the presale started at 10 - I had my ticket for the Vegas show. I'm beyond ecstatic! No words capture the immense happiness you all have helped bring today. Same here Went to Vegas VIP last time. Looking forward to them both! It worked for me. I got 2 Bronze packages for Tacoma.
I clicked on TA Packages and it brought me to a list of dates and it said buy now for Tacoma. You are buying through the site and not TM. I just don't know where my seat are. Where are my "Premium Tickets" located? Try a different browser -- I was having the same exact issue in Safari, but then tried Chrome and it worked.
Good luck! No way to buy a package had to ditch and go straight to ticketmaster for seats. It would be awesome if the Army in Tacoma could purchase another two tickets, or just the package sans seats Also wondering where the tickets are for the bronze package.
I received confirmation through the site, but I haven't received an email or anything else? Is this normal? This is my first time as a Tool army member. Depends where you are in line.
What justifies the price difference between bronze and silver? I guess for gold it's the autographed item.
Anyone else having issues buying the VIP packages? Aha, got it working! This seems to be a browser issue so if anyone else is having the same problem, try using Chrome -- that seems to work. I could not get a TA package but I was able to get a ticketmaster seat on the floor, so I am happy. I wanted to get the package but seeing them is what matters most to me.
If there is only one browser that works they need to let the paying public know. I tried safari and Firefox with the exact same problem.
Basic info would be nice. It has nothing to do with the browser you used and everything to do with your device and or internet connection you probably need to clear your browsing history and cache make sure all updates are installed that's just basic computer maintenance so I say again how was that Toolbands fault. So got the confirmation for the Tool Army Membership order and surprise it looks like everyone else is experiencing the same issue of not having their membership updated.
Love how this does not completely align with the excellence of the band. Lets get it together. Same for me. This is fucking bullshit! I've tried twice to join The Army, been charged twice, but still no presale number.
This is a goddamn disaster. Link just takes me to the AXS site. Welcome to Tool Army! I've been a member for like 15 years and have yet to get one single benefit from it. The link they have is incorrect and takes you to axs. My membership is still showing as free tier even though my payment went through and I got an email confirming. So pissed!! My acct isn't up to date but yet I paid. Keeps saying I'm on free tier. Won't update and I can't get my passcode.
So I can't fkn get presale tixs!! I updated my payment info, when before it said Free Tier. Not understanding this conundrum of technological bs. Wait a minute…for all of us on EST, is showed my reply at 9. Me too. Been trying to purchase presale tixs but I don't have a passcode bcuz my acct says free tier but yet I paid. Been charged twice, but still no code. Fuck presale, why can't this just be easy? I was not able to use google for what ever reason; I had to switch to my phone.
When I entered the presale code on the Ticket Master app, it sent me back to the queue and worked fine. I kind of panicked for second. It's local time in Chicago and I cannot purchase the packages.
Anyone else having this issue? See you guys there! My little guy is going to get microwaved. I can't wait. Holy Shit it worked!!! Floor seats at face value?!? Here we go Cleveland!!!!!!! Or are we limited to 2 total packages? Thanks Caree.
It sounds like we'll be able to purchase the same or better seat locations through TM presale right? I don't care too much about the gifts and there's 3 of us. Thanks again! Ok so. Now what? Will I got to my TA Profile and click on it? Do I go to Ticketmaster? I'm in Denver si I'm not sure who. I'm buying from or where or how. Please help. Spiral out fuckers. Im really really hoping I can get presale tomorrow for there. Just wondering why they decided to skip Canada??
But they're going back through the US playing cities they already played the first time and over to Europe playing cities they've played already on the Fear Inoculum tour? They say they're picking up right where they left off, with the exception of touring through Canada?!
Dude they're not coming to Finland. Doing Norway Sweden Denmark again too. Can't please everyone They did play Canada on the FI tour already. Is Canada allowing visitors yet? Maybe its a travel restriction thing?? Does anyone have any insight if they are doing presale for this venue?
Is the presale code for regular tickets or will it be like last year when it was presale for VIP packages only. Right now TA packages link only lists what they are but it does have a date next to it which makes me think it will end up a pre sale link for packages….
I think the question is what I am also trying to find out, do we purchase the packages through this website with the TA package link, or through ticketmaster? I have the same exact question. It only redirect back to ticketmaster. I dont know if the presale will be there or if there is another option. Presale code doesn't work. Your site doesn't work WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am just hoping when 10 am hits I will be able to purchase the package or get a seat, I am so anxious seeing all these comments that some pre-sale codes did not work or others did not even need it.
Am I missing something? Does anyone know if there are designated rows for gold, silver, and bronze? If you get 2 packages do you get to sit next to the other person you bought it for? Directly from toolband support. All three packages come with Premium Floor Tickets. Location of seating cannot be guaranteed and ADA seating may vary per venue.
The boxes will contain a combination of show specific and tour exclusive items. Items will vary by package tier. The items are limited in nature and are only available within either the Gold, Silver or Bronze level boxes. The Gold package is limited to 10 per show and will contain an item signed by the band. I have two Silver packages and still got seats in the front row of the level. I also think you can get a better perspective of their show from or levels.
My membership expires in Nov but under My profile it shows I'm in the free tier and I dont have a presale code.
Help I cant find how to purchase right now on the presale. For the Tool Army presale, do they generally send out a code or password in order to purchase the tickets? Or does it vary by venue? Where can I find this info? I didn't see that Tool has a requirement in the post. I would say it varies by venue. The ones I am going to are all different.
Philly doesn't specify vaccination but you have to wear a mask. Now, watching this new wave, I realize we are still in the fight and I must do my part. As far as Nashville, we are looking for a make up date from the July rain out and though this is not COVID related, to make them wait makes me sad, as well. So, it is with a heavy heart we announce the decision to cancel all 5 shows but with a hopeful heart, we will reschedule and start over when this wave seems to be behind us.

Many of the new guidelines also recommend masks at events regardless of vaccine status. For fans hoping to catch concerts this year, the new guidelines are better than the alternative. In Nashville, TN—in a move similar to what we recently saw from a group of New Orleans venues— eleven clubs have banded together to require proof of vaccination or a negative test for entry. While few events have outright required vaccination for entry, many have outwardly endorsed people getting the shot before coming to shows.
I think that makes sense. In the end, the singer-songwriter echoed the words of the founding fathers in response to those who claim policies like his infringe upon their basic freedoms as United States citizens.

Saturday, May 29, , p.

In New York, for example, Governor Andrew Cuomo announced in a press release this week that venues can return to full capacity if percent of attendees are vaccinated. He also reiterated the current state guidelines that allow for venues to host 50 percent vaccinated and 50 percent unvaccinated attendees.

This past week, two Knicks playoff games took place at Madison Square Garden with more than 15, masked patrons in attendee each night, while MSG-owned venues like Radio City Music Hall and The Beacon Theatre announced full-capacity events in the early summer that will require virtually all attendees to be vaccinated.

Things that were unthinkable a few months ago are now either a reality or just within reach. All the guidance to date references fixed and pod seating, limited entertainment time frames, and limits on radius and distance of attendee from place of residence to the event.
We have waited just about as long as we can to see how current trends and progress with the pandemic may affect our ability to hold the event. For these reasons, we have decided to postpone again, and bring back High Sierra in in its full unfettered self, as it should be, on July 4th weekend.

TM is not giving refunds for shows that have been postponed, only cancelled. I have not heard anything indicating that Tool is allowing refunds. The refund is up to the event organizer.
They advertised that they would issue refunds for postponed shows as well. Tool did refund those who bought vip tix. The prob is Tool should have straight cancelled the tour so that we had the option to rebuy Tix at a later date. Every other band I was gonna see this year has already rescheduled. Please do what many other bands have done by now and offer full refunds for the postponed shows as an option.
Please show some empathy and change the refund policy to free up some much needed cash for your fans that have supported you all these years. Thanks for listening brothers. Hey, thanks for cancelling my VIP ticket without telling me then finding out when I looked at my credit card statement. I love Tool but the customer service and One Live Media is horrific.
This is a band's website, not a ticket agency. With everything that is going on, are you really surprised that tickets for any public event are cancelled or postponed? Good luck to all and best wishes for everyone.
