Did you think it was worth the money in the Snakepit? I have tickets for the Gothenburg show. To me the snakepit looks huge and I could have bought a regular ticket and get as close to the stage :(
I don’t really think it’s worth the money, going to the same show and i thought about the snakepit but i bought normal tickets. I just think the stage is too big and the snakepit is no diffrence from normal standing tickets..
thb, I saw them twice in Amsterdam. They were more active towards to them, but I would never pay that money for it. 1st night I was standing right there where they came into the stage so I saw them ca 1m. 2nd I was in a different location. To me it is more than enough. I would say dude if you have chance apply for the snakepit lottery - I did - also, if there's a pop up store they'll give a card where you could also win a snakepit enter. The whole stage is massive, they have stairs because people need to get in to the pit saw I would recommend to stand one of the sides. The stage is curve styled but it has lower and higher (pit entrance) positions. Each 4 songs drum kit is moving around. They have 4 positions, staring from right corner, and finishing left corner (sorry for spoiler) so as I said, stick with on of the sides and you'll see everything.
@@Edde81M 1st band was already playing when we arrived. I think between 6-7pm when we got the point. To the first line you are unable to go because some early birds who bought expensive ticket are already there. Of course when we arrived none of us went out for drink or toilet. lol For the second night we arrived 5,30pm but on the side (so not there where band members are coming and going) were many people already.
Isn't it interesting? (*Sometimes* it's like that in America, too.) I've been trying to guess why it's fairly low energy there. Short version? They're too self-conscious. But in certain venues in Europe and the US, people get appropriately rowdy. Central and South American crowds - from what I've seen - go hard. Go figure.
@@yourmetalsister2958 Yeah, that might be it for the ones with the phones, but look at all the low-energy people there in the stands and even around the band, in the "pit." It's not even a generational thing; Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, what Gen Z there might be... a lot are pretty stoic. Like I said above, it can be like that in America sometimes. I've always noticed it in comparison with, say, Latin America.
This arena is notorious for its awful acoustics (trust me, I've been there and every Dutch person with a functioning set of ears knows it). Not Metallica's fault. The somewhat sloppily played intro is though. But overall, they sound pretty decent live the past 2 years, especially James.
