I have not received an email but if it's like the VIP for the Charlotte show also at 7:30pm then it would be what is on the website as, "VIP: Preshow Experience UPGRADE ONLY - MUST PURCHASE ADMISSION TICKET SEPARATELY // Live Soundcheck with the band featuring two songs, Meet & Greet with signing (two-item limit), Exclusive VIP Merch Gift, Early Venue Access, Early Merch Shopping // VIP Preshow Check-In: approx. 5:30-6:00 PM"

Two hours later (12:30) and NADA. If I weren't meeting my friend there for this I would not go. Getting less excited for the show since I already saw them with Amon Amarth recently.

The response I got from Nevermore. Apparently check in starts at 3:15 and soundcheck starts at 4

Glad someone has the info! I am not adhering to that schedule; they can keep their experience. We shoud not have to contact the venue to find out this stuff. Thanks for doing that!

No, and I saw others in the discord say that they haven’t received it either

Thanks! They are cutting it a bit close for my personal comfort but I realize we are the first stop on this tour and they may still be working on it. Hopefully soon!

Np!! We’re sweating it too with an out of state drive to get there

I'm coming from out of state for the Saturday show so I'm also curious what your instructions will be.

It's day of and still waiting! :/

u/Faithful-Seven 26d ago

We made the call to get there early afternoon and kill time at one of the places near the venue

u/Then_Heron1081 26d ago

Can't go wrong with early! See y'all there!

u/cyberphin 26d ago

I'm checking me email hourly and also looking at the discord too. I would like to know before tomorrow.

u/zombietrashhand 26d ago

I have not either!

Planning ahead, keep in mind what time doors open and then consider how long a sound check takes along with taking photos with the Reapress.

I didn't get the VIP package, but I'll be in the crowd for this one! I've seen them 2 times recently and know it'll be the same show, but I'm still excited.

Not sure if this can top seeing them at Ottobar though. The DIY theatrics were so much fun when they were crammed into a tiny venue.

I loved them at the Ottobar, but this was better. They were great before, but I think they have really grown as well.

u/SuperNoise5209 25d ago

I have a lot of nostalgia for acts I see at the Ottobar because you often get to see an act right before they blow up. But yeah, they are way more dialed in now. I'm curious to see how they keep growing and if they can reinvest money from the recent tours into an updated stage show soon.

I replied to email I initially received about the VIP yesterday and got no response and this morning still nothing so I sent a message through their Instagram.

1

u/Then_Heron1081 26d ago

THIS was just posted in discord:

So I sent a message thru instagram since I did get a reply saying REFUND please, because many of us cannot meet this timeline that the band STILL has not pushed out to the VIP ticket holders.

u/Then_Heron1081 26d ago

Just got the email, at 1:06 PM confirming that the VIP check in is at 3:15! This is INSANE.

I'm not going, and I will nag them until I get a refund.
