No Trivium. Does this mean it is an Evening With?

jmbeat · August 01, 2011, 11:02:50 PM

Just looked at the venue and it looks like a great place to film a DVD!!, and with the 10 day break between the 12th and then it looks like a strong possibilty especially with no opener. With these thoughts I had I went ahead and booked a flight and hotel from ATL. Going to buy my M&G tomorrow.

Fuzzboy · August 02, 2011, 02:05:13 PM

I'm seriously considering making the drive from Miami to Clearwater. Not sure yet...

waldemarfm · August 03, 2011, 01:56:45 PM

Ok if anyone can help me it would be so appreaciated.

This would be not only my first DT show, but my first actual show, of any band. I've never done this before and I would like some direction on how to best enjoy the night as much as possible without shelling 275 for a VIP seat.

I'm driving all the way from the east side with a friend, right across the everglades. Where do I buy the tickets? Which is the best option? Anyone

jmbeat · August 03, 2011, 10:49:32 PM

Try and get a good seat on the balcony so you can see everything. That way you will kind of know where you might want to be for future shows.

st_dysan · August 04, 2011, 07:32:23 AM

I would love to know if this will, indeed, be "an evening with". Can anyone confirm?

FlyingBIZKIT · August 04, 2011, 11:19:58 AM

I live in Georgia, so it would be about an 8 1/2 hour drive...I really want to go. It's good timing, because it is on a Saturday, so I don't have to miss any school.

Oh god, I'm going to. Without a doubt; though, from Fort Lauderdale.

Actually, I just got an email that a Pompano Beach date was added. I'd definitely rather go to that one since it's only a 30 min drive, as opposed to a 4-5 hour one...

Jamesman42 · August 07, 2011, 10:36:16 PM

Waiting for my friend to confirm if I am going to this show or the Orlando show.

Where is Pompano Beach?

Fuzzboy · August 07, 2011, 11:01:24 PM

Bit north of Ft. Lauderdale

JustinVK · August 08, 2011, 10:23:09 PM

Should I get ok seats for this night and the Orlando date, or get great VIP seats for this night?

Flacracker · August 09, 2011, 08:13:39 AM

The Hard Rock Live at Universal is a general admission stadium meaning there is no seats.

kevinpwrs · August 09, 2011, 12:05:34 PM

My son and I bought tickets for Clearwater and Orlando. Driving all the way from Wilmington, NC for 2 nights in a row of DT. Will arrive at Ruth Eckerd Hall a couple of hours before showtime. If anyone knows of any good restaurants in Orlando, pass them along. We won't have time to do anything before showtime at REH. Was thinking of some good seafood. Thanks.

I know two that are good but they are expensive because when I vacation there I don't want to eat somewhere just average. There is Don Shula's at the Dolphin Hotel at Disney. And there is Pacino's near Old Town.

No, it will not be an evening with. All shows will have an opening band. On those few nights when Trivium is unavailable, another band will open.

JustinVK · August 15, 2011, 08:17:18 AM

I am going solo to this show. Did anyone from the forum buy VIP tickets? It would be nice to know someone. Haha

I have them.

Jamesman42 · August 15, 2011, 05:00:24 PM

BTW, just saying that I won't be going to this one like I was thinking. jmbeat, you should keep the OP updated with everyone that says they're going, that's how it's usually done.

Kind of confused by this. Thought it was too soon for a roll call.

Jamesman42 · August 15, 2011, 05:50:18 PM

Oh, maybe it is. My bad

Zook · August 17, 2011, 07:26:47 AM

I saw Queensryche at Ruth Eckerd Hall. It's a great venue.

rcseeley421 · August 17, 2011, 02:49:21 PM

Got my meet and greet! For those of you who did it during the 09 tour, how was the venue/M+G experience?

ReaperKK · August 23, 2011, 06:11:26 AM

I completely spaced on checking on the dates to see if there are Florida ones and I just saw this yesterday.

I'd really like to buy vip, only if it's an evening with show which I doubt.

Demolition · August 23, 2011, 07:10:14 AM

I went to the Trivium website and they are scheduled to be at this show. Don't know where the information came from that showed otherwise.

fandres · September 11, 2011, 09:20:52 AM

This will be great!

JustinVK · October 18, 2011, 05:56:52 PM

So excited! Did anyone get the VIP package through vipnation?

rcseeley421 · October 18, 2011, 07:56:27 PM

I will definitely be there and I also got the Meet and Greet! I'll be wearing a shirt from the BCSL tour and khaki shorts probably, looking for other DTF members of course!

JustinVK · October 19, 2011, 03:00:46 AM
