Yeah, I almost pulled the trigger and got tickets on either ebay or stubhub.  Glad I didn't now, now I just need to find a place to stay 

tickets still available but all in the 300 sections as of 11:08

I've lost all respect for James Murphy.. he's nothing but a common scalper...and a hypocrite....its pretty documented by now what happened with the Madison Square Garden sales...

guess the brokers couldn't unload all the tickets on the secondary market.

wow, Terminal 5 isn't a bad venue after all (but this is experience from the floor). Sound isn't bad at all.

[sweetcell]

the sound is definitely good, i've never heard anyone complain about it.  it's just that it has no soul... has all the character of a strip mall.  it is very new york - bigger than life, towers up to the sky, huge VIP section, etc.  i don't hate the venue (i wouldn't skip a show just because it's at T5), but i'm not in love with it either.

How was the show last night?

[Vas Deferens]

Not the best I've seen them but will still rank it in the top 3 out of the 6 times I've seen them. I think it would have been a better experience for me if I wasn't in front in the pit. I was in the pit last year in SF and don't remember a pit as rough as this and the crowd was more grown up. Show was 3 hours long, divided in three sets plus encores. The biggest surprise was probably Freak Out/Starry Eyes (from the 45:33 single) with a male choir who also helped out with 5 or 6 other songs. Wish I could go to the MSG show but I think the setlist will be the same.

I was also at the show last night. It was fantastic. Best show i have seen from them (which includes freefest, coachella 2010, the last 9:30 club show, and one of the T5 shows last may).

Crowd on the floor was a bit rough though.

This is why you have to elbow peoples faces off like some dancers in here do 

[Vas Deferens]

^^ I didn't elbow but I did push back....we were upfront on the rail so it was much easier to push back using my back while hand on rail...
