Avenged Sevenfold Launch TicketPass
We would like to present: TicketPass
TicketPass is a blockchain based verification and rewards system for anyone that chooses to participate. It is free, eco-friendly and requires very few steps to make sure you can acquire the tickets you desire.
We will be breaking these passes into “tiers” over time and rewarding the people who have been participating in merchandise, listening habits, music consumption, live events and other metrics.
For instance, if over the course of a year you have purchased a t-shirt, vinyl and been to 4 shows… we will be able to upgrade your “Ticketpass” and allow you to purchase tickets sooner than others who have not. Many new items will have NFC tags that will allow us to verify ownership, stick with us! The idea being that actual fans are getting tickets first and not resellers looking to make money off of you. A simple way to look at it is through the lens of “Airline Rewards” systems. If you are flying on our airline a lot then we think you should have first shot at pit tickets. Another benefit to all of this is we have confirmed from Ticketmaster that none of these tickets are subject to dynamic pricing or price changes on day 1.
This is an early Beta that we begin testing with our upcoming second leg of tour dates announcing on Tuesday and things may change as we see how this plays out. If people are taking advantage of “Ticketpass” we can turn off their token on our end. If we see this isn’t working for fans then we may also choose to shut it down. We are building in public so that we can get feedback from you. If you decide that this is all too confusing and you would rather buy tickets on day 2 with an email and password then that’s fine too.
For people familiar with using Metamask and CoinbaseWallet, we need you to help people that are new to this when you can. When we started this over a year ago many of you needed help and others were happy to give it. Lets make this a good experience. If you are new to this and need any extra help at all please join our Discord and ask in the #ticket-pass channel. When opening a wallet please make sure to write down your 12-24 word seed phrase and put it in a safe place where it will not get lost.
If you are on mobile then you will need to use the wallets browser. For MetaMask you just open it up and press the three lines in the top left corner. After that just type in www.avengedsevenfold.io Directions below.

Deathbats Club on Tuesday morning for the ticket reserve program. Have
no fear, Ticketmaster has promised that all DBC tickets will be
secured first and that all tickets will be granted.
There are a couple videos below explaining a walk-through for anyone who needs more help.
