ill be here.
For those traveling and looking for a cheap hotel this doesn't seem like to bad of a deal at $69 a night. It's 2.4 miles from the venue which isn't to bad. Could ride the metro link and make a short walk looking at Google Maps.
Section 103 row K! So fucking excited!
Coming down from Chicago, if anyone finds any awesome hotel deals for one night, let me know.
So what's the earliest people are planning on getting there? It'd be cool to chat it up with everyone!
Any one know if ticket sales are going ok for this show?
EDIT: Answered my own question. The chaifetz website shows a interactive seating chart now.

It looks like it's selling good! Based on the seating map and what's available it looks like this..
Not too shabby with three months before the show!
As a SLU student I have to say it is absolutely insane that NIN will be playing on campus!
I've seen the Black Keys and Muse at Chaifetz. Its a smaller venue but I don't think there is a bad seat in the house. Even nosebleed has a good view and in my experience the acoustics are pretty great. Even with the smaller size the stage set up is able to accommodate anything they're likely to throw at it. Muse's set up with moving screens and the like was insane.
This show should be great.
My father is an electrician at SLU and has worked at Chaifetz at various times. He's gotten a hold of some of the banners from the side of the stadium (usually just to hack up and use as camping tarps.) I am going to see if he could pull off getting that giant NIN banner that is there now.
Also why have tickets been jacked up? Now when you go to the Chaifetz site and try to buy them it redirects you to Ticketmaster with 20 dollar higher ticket prices.
No problem.
Here's that big ass banner that's on the side of Chaifetz facing the highway. I love seeing this every day.
The color doesn't really come through in this photo but the background of the sign is a dark brown texture, like a darker version of The Downward Spiral sleeve notes cover.

Sidenote: A bar/restaurant/concert hall up the street from the stadium called Plush is bandying about the idea of throwing pre and post show parties the night of the concert. I'll keep you guys posted.
Oh wow, this is incredible looking! I was just at Triumph Grill which isn't too far away from Chaifetz and I even thought about driving around the stadium yesterday just for the hell of it to kind of look at it again and I would've loved to have seen that. I'll have to take a picture of that for myself next time I'm around that area.
I have never been to Plush yet but I've always wanted to go....great bands like Guided By Voices, Real Estate and Washed Out have played there but I've always been busy when they've been in town. I'll have to check that post party out for sure.
Plush has great, but kind of weird food.
I was on highway 64 and I saw the poster from the highway! It looked great!
I can't believe we're less than 2 months away from this....I cannot wait.
This will be my first of three shows I'll be going to solo for the Tension Tour. Already caught them at Lolla. Can't wait to see what Trent has planned for this tour.
Goddamn it... I can't make up my mind. You see, I'm leaving Nebraska for NYC. My plan has been to pack up my shit, hit up the show in KC, and then head down to the St. Louis show before heading east. I keep going back and forth. Seeing them two nights in a row would be magical.
Every time I think about this show my doodle wiggles a bit.
I guess if not, it isn't a huge deal. I thought this was the one that was sold out of floor tickets. But that's the Brooklyn show I'm trying to go to.
Let me know, though!
Agreed!
You're lucky that you're going to the KC show too! I would have if I had more vacation time from work I would've totally been at that one as well. Maybe next year the US will get another batch of tour dates as well? I'll totally hit another close one for sure if there's Tension 2014 in the States.
Ok guys, there's only 3 weeks left, let's get organize, anyone who's going for the first 3 (St. Paul, Kansas City & St. Louis)? i am.
These little beauties were sprawled all over Verizon Wireless today.
