In order to try and keep things more organized and not clump everything into one thread, we'll make a thread for each of the shows. Post photos, reviews, comments, updated for each show. People can let others know which shows they'll be at, and these threads can remain active in the 'On The Road' forum afterwards so that those looking for certain things can still use them. You'll find other threads for each date pinned in that forum now.

i can tell u now
that...not ALOT of people will be in line
THIS SITE is the online place that people would know about it....unless people looked it up or saw it on the Emo's site.

96.7 (big radio station) doesnt even know about it.

Only TRUE fans will be there.

i WOULD save u a place in line but...my dad doesnt get off until 4 (is a cop in Austin) and i'm going to Austin RIGHT after school (live 45 minutes away)
i get out at about 3:25
and im having my mom pick me up at at least 2:30
i NEED someone to save me a place XD

all i know is that a cop that WE know is going to be checking on everything (line length, when the tickets go on sell)
he COULD get me back stage but thats a BIG no.

I'll be goin to the Austin show, I hope. I live near San Antonio so I'll have to drive to Austin, about an hour trip. The hubby said he'd call in sick from work that day and watch the kids so I could go. Now all I need to do is find a friend to go with me...everyone seems so old these days and says "That's too late"!! Loooosers down.gif

My best friend and I are going to this show. I'm spending the last of my money and sacrificing a lot to go.

Seeing Billie Joe (my hero and god) in real life is worth everything to me. Including poverty. =)
lilacwine
Sweet, I'll be there too! I kind of hope not a lot of people go because I won't get there until the afternoon and I really want to get in!
Jammin' Honkey
I'm planning on going; I just wish I knew what time I should get there in order to secure admittance.

Thanks! That's really awesome of you guys...well I just heard from my sister and she's gonna go with me as long as my husband can change his work hours so I can go! So....if you see two redhead sisters, that's probably us biggrin.gif
Starbug
I'm coming from Alabama, and I am SO BLESSED to be getting to go. I didn't know I was until last night, and it's been surreal. My best friend lives in Houston, so I'm flying into their airport, we're crashing tonight, getting up eeearly tomorrow, and we be in line eeearly, too lol I CAN'T WAIT! I'm terrified, but this is amazing... Just amazing. I still can't believe it. It's a Christmas miracle! GO YOU FROM WISCONSIN! That's far! lol Hope you ALL get in! smile.gif It's going to be amazahziiing... :-D

im with u there on that one.

im just hoping its mainly people from here.
i asked yesterday at the store, where i bought my foxboro CD, if anyone else has bought it today and they said "no not really...like 1 or 2 people did"

so maybe theres hope XD

Cool! My friend is going (or going to try) to go to the Austin show. She wants to take her camera, though, but just incase she gets to meet the band and take pics with them. But I told her that I don't know if they'll let her bring a camera in. I don't know. We both have never been to a concert lol!
Will they let you bring a camera inside if you don't take pictures during the concert?
herotanzoo

Oh wait lol nvm. It says on Emo's website "NO CAMERAS." ^^;.
down.gif
pumpkin1010
someone told me that they got in w/ camera but if security sees it out then they will literally tackle u to get it. I want one just in case I see the band outside and can get pis with them....don't want to take pics inside...learned that lesson long ago...all concerned about taking pics w/ cell phone and didn't enjoy show as much.

Have my IPOD on listening to the FBHT! It's going to be so fun.

Don't know if I can hang in front thru all warm up bands
UrNumbrOneCrush
Ill save someone a spot in line. But it will cost ya....$50 AND a blow job smile.gif
Either that or some hardcore f....(foxboro hottubbing?) hahaha wow im hilarious
redheadedtemper
Well it's confirmed.....my sister and I are gonna be able to go!!!!! We're so stoked. But we won't be able to get there until around 6:30pm....if anyone near the front sees two redhead sisters, we won't mind if you let us cut in biggrin.gif
JessicafromATX
i'm planning on getting there around 1pm. call me crazy but it will be worth the wait. i'll be there with the boyz, the booze and probably some wild glamrock top. and glitter, lots of hot-sweaty glitter.

say hi if you see me there...i dont bite until after 11pm and 8 vodkatonics.
faze3
I too am going. I live in San Antonio, BUT I'm cutting my vacation short and flying in from MON-fucking-TANA to be there. As far as not too many people being in line, lets all cross our fingers. A very popular Austin Events website has posted the show, and revealed the identity of the band. My plane lands at 1:25, and I'm gunna haul ass straight to the show. To anyone from San Antonio, I played guitar on stage a couple of years ago at the GD show... One of the greatest moments in my life.. Tomorrow just may top that.

much love
-mike.
GD_MS_Lover
dude..
i just..
-sigh-

this is totally fucking bullshit
i CANNOT believe my dad HAS to work.

i know im not getting in...i just have this feeling.
my aunt even called my mom and LIED to her about the show, saying shit like "the show is sold out" and "some big radio station released the info on it"

I'm going to austin from houston, Im 35 and glad to hear that there is older people going. Don't get me wrong, I love all green day fans, but some times I feel so silly hanging out in line with kids young enough to be my kids..lol
redheadedtemper
Okay.....does anyone think that showing up around 6:30pm would be too late to get in? I don't get off until 4:30 but it'll be rush hour traffic time in San Antonio, where I'm coming from, and Austin.

What does everyone think?
**nobodylikesyou**
^wow, no need for the extra large font.

But in LR they let everyone that showed up in. So go for it. You have nothing to lose.

eyes don't lie


I hope you lot ALL get in tonight. It's gonna be a great night, I can feel it in my bones laugh.gif

Take care and have a wonderful time.
JessicafromATX
new word on the street is tix go on sale at noon. only 50-100 at that time. Cash only.

I don't know how many people they are actually letting in the venue total. I think they are selling these early for all the hardcore guys and gals that are in line right now.

i have the feeling you can only purchase one ticket...

i'm heading out there soon and i'll update after i scoop it out...
michmack
Good luck.....hope you get in and can give us another fab review.
TreCool_humper
wow..i hope everyone tonight has the mother fucking time of their life!!! tongue.gif
CoffeeBassDirnt
Hope you guys going today have a great time!
You won't be disappointed. Trust me. cool.gif

has this actually been confirmed as an all ages gig?
Wolfdemon
Once again, looking forward to the reviews. thumbsup.gif I should just copy and paste this in the next few threads about the shows on those days. laugh.gif
lilacwine
Me and my friend got there about half an hour too late. Tickets are now going for about $100 to $140 each. Did anyone grab an extra one when they were in line?
netty
what?? the fucking touts got in on this?? mad.gif

hand me a nail gun people.

oh bugger... I`m no where near. damned shame.

*message to the band.... when venues sell tickets... get the buggers in right then and dont let them out until the end of the show! *
Andres
Thats what they're doing at the phoenix show. As soon as you get your ticket, you have to go in.
