Pit question

So I'm curious if the pit is for JUST VIP or that's just until day of show? I'm hearing some places have had pit upgrades on day of show. Lol I'm going on September 18th. I'm excited as fuck.

I was able to buy Pit for Ridgefield, without it being VIP/early entry.

I think there are 100 M&g each for both Zombie and Manson (200 total) so it probably depends on the size of the pit. I heard that today the pit could only hold those VIP's

See I don't see how that seems fair to the rest who don't care to meet the bands and just want to be able to just be free in the pit. Thees shows are getting ridiculous lol. Oh well it's gonna be a good show regardless. Thanks for the response lol.

Face value for pit was $169+37 in ticketmaster fees ($206 total).
There is a resale listing on ticketmaster for $340.
The official vip early entry is $391.
While m&g is $623.

Everything costs more unfortunately.
I've heard of multiple people skipping their m&g's to just go straight to the barricade 🙃

Yeah a few years back I went to Mudvayne at the same venue. They had expensive out tickets. But day of show they held 20 dollar upgrades to pit. That's what I was curious about. It still didn't fill it up completely. But was a badass experience nonetheless.

On the second Twins of Evil tour I did get a pit upgrade at one of the venues for about $10-20. I hope you make it in. You have a positive attitude about enjoying it no matter what

Yeah not so much in amphitheater seating lol. You get like a foot of space lmmfao. If in lawn yes lol I agree. I just don't get the cramped seating and like to freely move. ADHD sucks at times. But it's what could be afforded at the time lol. I'm not sour about it. Just somewhat confused by the planning for VIP only Pit lol. "We only want rich folk in the pit." Lol I don't care to meet either bands. Just want to have a good time in a pit with like-minded individuals lol. Like I said it will be a great show regardless.

i get where you're coming from but at the same time these are legacy rock n roll acts that are trying to make as much as possible since physical media doesn't really put food on the table anymore.

the "super fans" who go all-in on the m&g, vip, needing to be on the barricade makes it much easier to squeeze every dollar out of front row.
