This just in from the official site. Ticket info as well.

This just in from the official site.

I'm very familiar with the venue this will be playing, and it is a rather large semi-stadium auditorium.. This is far different from the previous medium clubs that Evanescence has played in the past, since the back of the Music Theatre is all forest (whereas, you would usually go around back to meet the band)..

So I'm wondering now, how do you try to meet the band at a venue like this?..

Is the DTE what used to be called Pine Knob?

Is the DTE what used to be called Pine Knob?
Yes.
I so want to go to this concert but it is an hour away and I can't drive(haven't bothered with training, wish I did now) and my friend who wants to go with me just got her licence and our moms aren't sure about the whole thing.

Mmhm.. Might you have any information as to how these meet-and-greets might go at a place like that?..

Tickets go on sale today at 10am. As soon as I get off of work I'm gonna go get mine. It'll be my 2nd Evanescence show. My first was at the Great American Rib-off last May. It was only $6 for Evanescence, 12 Stones, and Julianna's Theory. This year the rib-off features Saliva and Shinedown for $7. The show at DTE is gonna be awesome. 4 big bands for the price of 1 or 2.

Havok out.

I so want to go to this concert but it is an hour away and I can't drive(haven't bothered with training, wish I did now) and my friend who wants to go with me just got her licence and our moms aren't sure about the whole thing.

Where are you from? Maybe you could ride with us. Plenty of time to meet the parents so they'd be comfortable letting you go with us. We are coming from Westland, Livonia, Detroit and Redford as a group. Adults and kids. I'm bringing my two daughters. It will be my youngest childs first concert.

So I'm wondering now, how do you try to meet the band at a venue like this?..

The usual...busses and such are in the area behind the stage...don't quite know how you'd get back to the busses. It's all fenced in back there. I say go early and do some exploring. If you're facing the entrance, you'd want to go to the left around the pavillion. (if I remember correctly)

It's still Pine Knob to me! Always will be!

Hey guyz, wuts up? I am so happy right now, i just got 4 tickets to this show. Im so excited it will be my first concert and im so happy its Evanescence, I wouldnt want it any other way.

Rachel

I'm going :D. I can't wait, we got 2 tickets to the concert as soon as they went on sale. This will be my first concert, and its ev! Couldn't be better :)

I live in the Downriver area. Thanks for the offer but my mom would just about kill me if i proposed that to her, she got really freaked out when I was in a chat room(all those 20/20 shows about that)
I've been listening to 93.1drq (I loathe this station by the way) for the last 6 hours waiting for a ticket give away. I called last night and a guy said they would be giving some away tonight, and I'm guessing if i win the tickets there would be no other choice but to go. Heres hoping :)
I wish I posted something before but you could of bought the tickets early if you were on the e-team, they emailed you a secret code(wasn't very secret by the way) and you could by the tickets on tuesday
p.s. can you believe that rain today?

Yes.

i just got tickets today. i bought 5 of them at 10am im proud. but your worring about driving an hour.. im driving my ass down to pennsylvania to see them like a week or so later, thats commitment for ya

Is the DTE what used to be called Pine Knob?

it still is Pine Knob. it is all year around. but when there is a concert, the set up (stadium) is DTE and Pine Knob is the place. i go snowboarding there every winter and see concerts ever summer. i just went to the 89X birthday bash last night

It doesn't bother to me, an hour is an hour, but the moms. Im only 16 don't have my licence and my mom is worried about it oh well

im only 16 aswell. i turned it april 28, not too far off

I got my tickets today as well. Waited outside for around 45 minutes with a friend of mine basically by ourselves. Then a older man on a motorcycle showed up and we talked with him for a bit, and then about 5 two two boys showed up as well. Well even though we were first in line, it seems we got jipped because our lady didn't really know too much, so we ended up with Center Stage Row M. While the older man ended up with 2nd row, and the boys with Row G. I mean still good seats, but it would of been so awesome to be in 2nd row...


Out of curiosity... anyone know if we're allowed like disposable cameras? Because I read DTE's policy and they said its up to the band. Also anyone know about maybe getting back stage or what not, I'm figuring thats really just knowing the right people, but it doesn't hurt to ask.

That's why I said there is plenty of time for parents to get to know each other ahead of time, besides, I grew up downriver. I might even know your mom. Wouldn't that be a co-inkydink?

I went to Kid Rock with my digital and had no problem.

I took my daughter and a friend to Indiana for their concert in Fort Wayne cuz I thought they wouldn't be coming to MI. Now I've got a busload coming with me! This should be great!

I wish I posted something before but you could of bought the tickets early if you were on the e-team, they emailed you a secret code(wasn't very secret by the way) and you could by the tickets on tuesday

I wish you would have too. I just forked out $397 for tickets that are behind the sound booth.

Where's the sound booth gonna be there anyways?

I've been trying to figure out if my seats are good or bad or not, their row M center stage.

That's why I said there is plenty of time for parents to get to know each other ahead of time
I know but mentioning the idea of meeting someone online would have her cut me off from the computer completly. I wouldn't mind meeting someone in a public place but she is suspicious of people online.

did you ever know a conley or a fix

I just found this and I thought I'd share...

Evanescence, Seether, 3 Days Grace, Breaking Benjamin, 6:30 p.m. at DTE Energy Music Theatre, $40.50 pavilion, $18.50 lawn.

So the show starts at 6:30. I guess that means that Ev won't be on 'til late.

I've been trying to figure out if my seats are good or bad or not, their row M center stage.

DTE (http://www.palacenet.com/content.cfm?category=2&pageid=786) You can kinda look up your seats. They don't have a full map, but your seats are in front of the sound booth, you lucky camper! 13th row. I don't know what they do about the orchestra pit at a concert.

I know but mentioning the idea of meeting someone online would have her cut me off from the computer completly. I wouldn't mind meeting someone in a public place but she is suspicious of people online.

Silly me! I would probably be the same way. It's not like when I was kid and the world was a much safer place. I'm not sneaky enough to even think of a way around the online problem, except that maybe you could "accidently" meet my daughter somewhere like, the mall, and "gee mom, i met this chick at the mall and she's going with her mom and sis to see Ev". That's as dishonest as I can get. After all, I'm a parent too and I wouldn't want my daughter to get any more dishonest than that with me.

did you ever know a conley or a fix

Fix? No. Fox? Yes, a Darryl Fox, but I didn't know him well.

Yay! I'm going! :D :D :D This will be my third Ev show. Unfortunately, we've got lawn seats though. I wouldn't have minded paying the extra money for real seats, but Clarkston is 5 hours away from me, so we're getting a hotel for the night. Since I gotta pay for the hotel, I couldn't afford good seats. Oh well. Just being there is gonna be a rush. I can't wait to see Seether either (that rhymed). I love them. Is anyone hanging around after the show to see if they can get autographs and such? I wouldn't even know where to go.... but if anyone wants to meet up there somewhere, I'd love to meet you all. :)

I'm going! I posted in the wrong forum and thanks to a nice user leading me over here, I see all these people are going. We got Pavillion seats. We are in section PP(laugh... I did). They are crappy seats, but, whatever. My first concert, ever! YEEEEAAAAAAH!!!!

yea i have lawn seats too. i thought i had actual seats but for some reason when my madre ordered then they said they didnt have any pavilion seats left (but they did) arg. but we should meet up. it would be a party.

section PP(laugh... I did). They are crappy seats, but, whatever.

We're in row PP too! (say PP...lol...pee pee...we have pee pee seats) We have seats 7-14. How bout you? It's not that bad. It's, at least, center stage, even if its row 42 and behind the sound booth. We can get up and hang closer to the stage;that is, if they haven't screwed with that privilege.

Has anyone found out if digital cameras are allowed? The last EV concert I went to, you were only allowed to have disposable cameras and they suck. I was 10 feet from the stage and the pics look like I was half way across the freakin' stadium. :mad:

but we should meet up. it would be a party.

LOL, it would be a party, a nice little EvBoard party. We can wear those nametags... :) Really though, maybe I'll see ya there.

seriously we should meet up. ill be there with like four other friends so it would kick ass. it would be the best thing that hit DTE, evanescence mixed with us. oh...yeeaaa.....LOL

My mom called and got 4 tickets as soon as they went on sale. She told me that the machine said we were in the Pavillion, but in Row 888, seats 8-11. I was confused that we got a section so far back since she had called right when they went on sale. So I went on the DTE site and looked at the seating chart to see where we were. Turns out, there was no 888 but there was a row AAA, the first fucking row! I was so excited, because I've never been able to see Ev live. I was convinced that they weren't going to do another tour in the US until atleast the new album came out, because they'd already been on the road for over a year. But what do ya know... :D

i dont like you... im just messin, i like you. but yea i didnt think they would be touring again, but oh i was wrong... hey we should meet up.

Hey Relentlesslie, SadPenguin's right. I'm gonna be there too, and we should all meet up! It's be fun!

I would not complain about seats near the sound and light booth. You actualy will have the best view and sound of the show.

Nearly every show I attended, I've been parked right near the light board.

Snerthunt

so i guess private m. me if you want to talk about meeting at the concert.

I'm going! I'm going! Let's meet up, for sure!! Could we all wear evboard shirts, maybe? Just the evanescence sign and the word 'evboard'. That might make it easier. I also wanna stay after. Maybe we could all meet up in one place after the concert's over and then go try to find them. :)

How about we all wear something like a bandana around our arms or something? That way we won't ruin our outfits.

you think a bandana around the arm wont look weired? lol. actually i'll do it. just because im a loser like that. but im more than likely staying after to try to have Amy herself kick my ass out. lol. but i say before the concert we all meet up on the side walk between the pavilian and the lawn like mid section or sumthin.

Hmm. How about we pin a red bandana to our shirt sleeve? Red will be easy to see, and other people might be wearing them on their arms/wrists. The easier/weirder to see, the better! I think that's a good place to meet.. But then again, I'll just follow the bandanas.

Y'know, we could just scrap the bandana idea (lol) and wear those fun "EvBoard" nametags. Nah, bandanas are cool too :) . We should all meet up somewhere before the show, definately. That way we can figure out where we're all sitting and then figure out where to meet after. I assume everyone is staying after? Oh, and is anyone coming from outta town? Cuz I am, and I'm getting a hotel room for the night. Good to know, right? :rolleyes:

Well, what is there to do after? other than just hang around untill we get kicked out...

We're in row PP too! (say PP...lol...pee pee...we have pee pee seats) We have seats 7-14. How bout you? It's not that bad. It's, at least, center stage, even if its row 42 and behind the sound booth. We can get up and hang closer to the stage;that is, if they haven't screwed with that privilege.

I don't have the tickets on hand... I think it was seats 60 something, lol.

BTW: I could totally do the red bandana thing.

Okay, red bandanas it is...arms, legs, hair, wear 'em anywhere!

Good deal... so is anything going on after? like are we still all going to meet up and what not?

Good deal... so is anything going on after? like are we still all going to meet up and what not?

I probably can't stay after the show, my sister works the next day, so we have to go home as soon as possible. :(

that really sucks, but anyone else have any idea of what to do?

Hey, I'm totally up for hanging out afterwards. Unfortunately, I have no suggestions on what we should do. I've never been to that part of Michigan before. Come to think of it, I've never been to Michigan at all.

And... are we all meeting somewhere before the show? Like, at the gates or whatever? SadPenguin, you said you have lawn seats right? We should find each other before the show and then we can sit together or whatever. Yeah??

Im thinkin bout going, but got the feeling Ill be really out of place, a 29 year old guy in a crowd full of teenage girls lol. Police might think something wierd is going on lol.

Oh how wrong you are. There will be ALOT of people there. including older people than you and guys too. Plus your never out of place when your listening to evanescence

Evanescence is supposed to be on Pepsi smash on July 15th. Whether that means it will be shown live from thier concert at DTE or not, I dont know.

Hmmm...let's see...I'm a 44 yr old girl and I'll be there with my 20 yr old daughter and her friend, and my 12 yr old daughter. Plus 5 other people ranging in age from 32-46.

Still feel you'll be out of place? I don't think so! Evanescence is one of those bands that appeals to people of all ages.

Uni

Welp, I bought a ticket so I guess Ill find out first hand whether Im going to be surrounded by teenage girls or not first hand hehe. Should be a fun show even though Im not too keen on the opening bands.

I got a pair of tickets myself a while back. I was going to offer one to my brother, but he's diabetic, and he hates long concerts, so he declined to go. Luckily, I know someone who likes Evanescence a little but knows little enough that the show might really impress him. I'm pretty excited about it myself. This will be my first Ev concert, and also the first one I've driven out of state to see. I have this funny feeling Interstate 75 is going to be a mess though, so I'm leaving myself extra time.

Im game to meet up with anyone if they want, just let me know where.

We could at least, meet up and say hi. I've found that speaking with someone online after meeting them is much more fun. (yearly campouts with people in my fav chat room)

As for all those teenage girls, Dragoro, my experience at Ev concerts shows me that most of them are there with a parent anyway, so relax and have fun. (if you're gonna try to find a date, insist they show ID!)

Uni

It is fun meeting people you've only spoken to online, so everyone wear their bandanas!!

I'm gonna go now!
I won tickets earlier on 96.3fm (well technically my mom did since im not 21) Hooray!
And on Monday I'll find out if we get to meet the band!
Oh happy days!

Here's a chance for you guys to win tickets if you haven't gotten them already :)

Yes, red bandanas it is. And Penguin, I too have lawn seats, so perhaps I'll see you there!! :D I couldn't be more hyped thatn I am right now. :)

well, like we planed to meet up earlier, were would you like to meet? ill be whearing my bandana on my wrist with an Evanescence shirt, the one of amys head tilted back, and im like 5'4'' brown hair, hummmm....i cant thin of anything else

you guys have a great time and let us know how it goes.

So, what the hell happened yesterday? LOL.

So how it was yesterday ?? tell your comments !

I'll just say WOW!!!! I've never had a concert effect me so much. I am still blown away.

I've never posted because i never thought i had anything to say, but I'm shocked that no one has been on here raving about how wonderful last night was! Seether was awesome! Ev was.. well... breath taking. The whole night was amazing.

I'm not the type to cry and scream at a show, but when something effects you so deeply you just can't help it.

I'll just say WOW..... WOW!!!

That's pretty much how I felt the first time I saw them at Webster Hall and Amy came out in that now infamous Alice in wonderland dress lol. I'll never forget that night ;)

Wow, it was AMAZING! I was screaming and wow.. I couldn't help it. Unicorn2b was sitting 2 rows in front of me, but other than her I didn't see anyone with red bandanas. :/ Anyhow, it was beyond words! DOes anyone know that one song Amy sang? I think it was a cover, but it was the first song she sang while sitting down at the piano.

More than likely the cover of Korn's Thoughtless.

Anyhow, it was beyond words! DOes anyone know that one song Amy sang? I think it was a cover, but it was the first song she sang while sitting down at the piano.
yea, that was Thoughtless. haha, when they played that, the guy in front of me went crazy. He was like "It's Korn! Yea, baby!" and kept screaming until his girlfriend shut him up :D Anyways, that was SUCH an awesome concert! All the bands were great, Broken was amazing. haha, right before Broken, Shaun said something like "This is the only fucking song anybody knows/cares about (couldn't tell which one of those he said) anymore!" There were also these 2 drunk guys next to me, who apparantly loved Seether. They were singing along (as best they could :rolleyes: ), and whenever they got to the part "Why try to stay sober, feels like I'm dying again", I cracked up. It was also cool to see the differences in the bands- I mean, like how the stage was set. Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace didn't really have anything special, and Seether had a huge banner-ish thing with the band name and the Disclaimer II CD cover picture, and some special lighting. Then Ev had the whole thing- they turned on the video screen things (don't know what they are called) on the side of the stage, they had the fog machine, awesome lights, and, of course, the huge "e" logo. That was my first rock concert (sad, I know :rolleyes: ) but it was amazing. Was anyone there when the Breaking Benjamin lead singer did an imitation of BMTL? It was hilarious. He said after them it would be Three Days Grace, then Seether, then "the lovely evanescence". Then he started singing "How can you see into my eyes", imitating Amy (high voice and everything, hehe). Anyways, great night, great show. Oh, and at the end, (after Ev went off stage) this one guy jumped on the stage, and the security guards got him really fast. Then Amy came out laughing and they played Whisper as an encore. Well, this is my longest post ever :p, normally I'm too shy to say anything :(
Great show :D

The concert was amazing, i cried when she sang, "breath no more." so after the concert i guess they were passing out stickers to go hang out with the band, unfortuinatly no one gave one to me, it was like an overall of 10 stickers were passed out. So i was all moody and down in the dumps untill i saw a sticker stuck to the sidewalk. I rip it off, stick it on me, then headed to the gate. A man walked me down and after a while of waiting, band members slowy began to come out. I talked to Shawn and Terry for a long time. I also talked to John. Everyone signed my gutair strap. I was slowly trying to make my way over to Amy. I was so scared of what to say and how to act! But when i finally got over there she was so cool and down to earth, well so was everyone else, espically shawn and terry. But Amy and i talked about alot of things it was GREAT! she signed my snow white purse and my gutiar strap! i will never forget that!

That is so great that you were able to get in. How long after they went off did they start handing out stickers? I wondered how that would work. What kind of seats did you have? I had row GG right center. I thought about trying to make it down front while everyone else was leaving but i wasn't sure if anyone else would be staying. I would love to hear about what you guys talked about.

Wow! That is great that you were able to get back there to meet everyone. How long after the lights came on did they hand out the stickers? How close where your seats? I had GG right center. I thought about going down to the front once people started leaving but i wasn't sure if anyone else was staying and the people i was with probably wouldn't have wanted to go with me. I would love to hear about what you guys talked about. I cried so much at the show. It was so beautiful! Her voice is moving no matter how much you hear it. I would have just froze if i had tried to talk to her.

I guess they passed them out a longtime before the show was over. I was in row X. Then we went down to the stage when everyone was clearing out, we got yelled at.
Lets see, John and I talked about everything including gaff tape. Shawn and i talked for the longets, along with Terry. We talked about life on the road, Ben, Dr.Pepper, Switching from Cold to Evanescence, Dating Amy while on tour, the list goes on. It was so amazing and stimulating!
I talked to amy about art, why she took out her eye brow ring, ect.

I ended up going(yay!) and we bought row O tickets(we were on the far right but they were pretty good tickets concidering we bought them the day of) but it was so cool to have Evanescence for my first concert. I ended up really liking BB and TDG but I didn't like Seether as much(not saying they are bad or anything but they just aren't my style) but when Evanescence came on I was so excited. I loved it all (I think Breathe no more the best) but when Amy was saying Imaginary was the last song I was a little shocked since they didn't play whisper, but we were leaving during Imaginary(we were there for the whole song at least) hoping to get out the parking lot(that didn't really help since we were stuck in there for an hour, I hate those parking attendents!) so I was a little sad that I missed whisper. Anyways I loved it.
p.s.
did anyone get any pictures and are they willing to share them on the internet?
and thesadpenguin I'm so jealous that you got to meet everyone(but I'm also glad you did:)

she just said that she took it out while she was on vaca on the beach. She took out all of her peircings and she can put them back in anytime she likes.

WOOOOOOOO!!! That concert was great!

After the show, were any one of you the people outside the building singing "Broken"? Then soonly there after blazing Guns 'N Roses? If so...

...nah, I'll just leave it at that.

You left before the concert was actually over then...Whisper is played as an encore along with Zero preceding it.

Every time I see Ev in concert they just get better and better. This concert was OUTSTANDING! My daughter (her first concert) was in awe. When I asked her how she liked it she said "I want to go again". My friends, who hadn't seen them yet, had a blast. They didn't believe me when I said Amy sounds better live. They do now! I was soooo happy that they did Farther Away! It's one of my favs. I was agreeing with Amy on the Harpo's thing. It WAS dangerously hot in there.

I did NOT, however, agree with Shaun on the "only song anyone remembers" statement. NOT SO! I love Gasoline and it was the first song they did. I DO own the cd and have had it since it came out. I think Seether is great.


Unicorn2b was sitting 2 rows in front of me, but other than her I didn't see anyone with red bandanas

And what exactly happened to all of you and the bandanas anyway? I gotta give Moonlight credit. She spotted me before I spotted her. I was looking everywhere for bandanas and didn't see any. Shame on you people!

I have to say that DTE isn't Pine Knob anymore. They've got the Seat Police who refuse to let you down front. (I paid the same money the people in the front paid. Why can't I go up there?), the Cigarette Police "You can't smoke in the Pavillion" "You gotta smoke behind the yellow line" (We're outside for God sake!) and to top it all off, the Potty Police! "You can't go out that way, go out this way". WTF?! Do I need permission to breathe too?

i left after the lights came on and didn't hear Zero. Did they shut the lights back down and come back out?

I wasn't at this show, but I know Zero and Whisper are played as an encore. They don't usually turn the lights on in between, but maybe they do this time around...Idk. The break in between is maybe 5-10 minutes give or take.

When the show's over, the lights come on and the stage crew almost immediately comes out to start taking everything down... If in doubt, observe if everyone else is leaving too. If not many people are, then the show isn't over.

I use to hate going to shows with my parents when I was younger cuz they would make me leave after the first fake goodbye and I always missed encores it drove me crazy! I remember a few years ago I took my mom to see Prince and I said WERE NOT LEAVING UNTIL ITS DONE!! She was like ok lol. I'm glad we didnt cuz he did a killer encore at that show :) This was jones beach also :)

LOL, go figure, my uncle is lucky. He gets to go to Prince's concert at Nassau Coliseum tomorrow and then go to the Ev concert with me on Thursday. Lucky bastid :mad: :p

I went to the concert as well....... F***ing AWESOME! First time I've been to a Evanescence concert. And I was far from dissapointed. Definately worth seeing again. It would have been so cool if I got to meet them. But then again, I would have froze up and probably just sat there with my mouth open. LOL

They played "zero?" I didn't hear it, and I stayed there until everyone else left and the stage was all taken down.

LOL!! I missed Prince's tour this time because I was dead broke and I picked my 3rd EV show over Prince! I've seen Prince before and have a few live shows so its ok..but I'm still kinda bitter! I like alot of his older racy stuff that he doesn't sing anymore soh well. I still would've liked to have seen this tour though but I'm sure theyll most likely be a dvd somewhere down the line.

They played "zero?" I didn't hear it, and I stayed there until everyone else left and the stage was all taken down.I didn't hear it either. :confused:

Nope, I don't think they played Zero. I saw them tossing out picks and drumsticks, and the house lights went up. That's usually a good clue that the show's over.

They played "zero?"

They played it about 3 songs before the end of the show. It wasn't an encore song.

Maybe they changed the set list around a bit that night cuz lately they usually play Zero with Whisper as part of the encore :)

I think you are thinking about Farther Away(or Thoughtless) because those were the only covers I heard(unless it was in the encore

Ok, color me stupid, but Farther Away is a cover? Of whos song? I thought it was a pre-Fallen Ev song. I'm confoozled! :(

I heard them do a cover song, but since I never heard it before, I assumed it was the one being discussed. It was played during the concert, not as an encore.

I was there too it rocked! i really loved how she interacted with the crowd. the songs were awesome she sounded so much like the cd! it was my first ev concert and i loved it! i row in row 16 all the way to the left if u cant tell from my s/n :D

OH shit. I don't know why I thought it was a cover. So your not the stupid one, I am :eek: So the only cover they played was Thoughtless(Korn) :)

That is great that you liked it(They Sound so much better live than they do off the album :D )
but the rows were letters(I was in row O, seat 3) Hope this doesn't ruin your sn :)

I went too! I know this is a little late but... ehh... I had so much fun and I was at the top of the hill. I stood the whole time and got bumped into by a lot of drunk people, but it so rocked. It was my first concert without my mom, but my mom is cool, she likes all the music I do and she's not creepy old. Although creepy old is cool.. I mean, Amy's voice sounded way better live and I didn't think that was possible. I got a shirt, and I fell down the other side of the hill. Owies.. :D
