Overview

  • The band revealed the club gig on Monday via social media, with tickets released at 4 p.m. before the show appeared on official tour or venue pages.
  • Fans rushed to Toad’s Place, where lines stretched for one of 900 general-admission tickets offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • Anti-resale rules required the buyer to attend, limited purchases to two, mandated physical credit or debit cards, and asked buyers of two tickets to name the second attendee.
  • Event entry policies include doors at 6 p.m., ID matching to the original order, paired entry for two-ticket orders, no reentry, small-bag limits, and other listed prohibitions.
  • The intimate New Haven stop precedes the band’s Oct. 2 tour launch in Indonesia and follows a 2024 Bridgeport festival cancellation, with Toad’s Place marking 50 years of hosting major acts in a small room.
