lmao at the emicon for whip it. I have been to a billion shows in my lifetime, but I am pretty tired of artists mailing it in. No local bands are going to mail it in, but I have seen enough of the large bands that I don't need to see them again. Get their dvd, buy good beer, put on some headphones and it is better and more enjoyable than sitting around "those guys" at a concert. those guys include the overly drunk guy, the I am going to kick everyones ass even if it is not a mosh pit, and the lost hippies. I also have to question most of the artists sound on stage, too canned most the time. If there are horns in a song I want someone on stage playing the ****ing horn.

We needed 7 tickets but I could only cover 3 so my friend was going to grab the other 4. Luckily I got in when I did because at 10:07 the show was sold out (went on sale at 10) and then pit tickets were posted on stub hub for $542.

On top of all that there were an additional $17.25 in additional fees so an $80 ticket jumped to $97 and then there was another $5 service charge for the overall order. Goddamn 20% of face value fees and 17.7% of total purchase was fees. **** TICKETMASTER!

IIRC Didn't they get in trouble for exorbitant fees before?
Samething happens with Phish. Ticketmaster partners with it's own ticket broker. How they are even able to do this or why the venues and the bands put up with it is reeruned. Phish started using musictoday and it's gotten much better. Ticket scalpers are parasites.

phish also reminds me of the music you hear on the menu of video games or a dvd (exept for their version of gin and juice)

That's The Gourds, not Phish.

I'll second the '**** ticketmaster'. After Slipknot cancled they charged us us a handling fee. I suppose if the band cancled they should refund those fees. But anyway, **** ticketmaster.
