C.O.C.
that's a blast from my skate punk days

I saw them in the mid 80's as well.

If you don't want the tickets I can trade you Arcade Fire tickets for them.

So your intention of giving baseball and never going to the O's again is not even going to make it past opening day?

Color me shocked....

Opening day isn't about baseball. It is about getting drunk and partying.

he went country . . . obviously because he was not making any money bipping and bopping, and everybody knows, you can make some serious grilled cheese on toasted rye, in country.  so no, he is not.

What are you talking about going country?

Side hatch I don't know if he is a joke but he seems sincere and always stays in character. I like his music too.

Didn't pull the trigger on Friday for that exact reason.  GREAT line up but, geez, $38?

Uh oh, having an opinion on what is too much for someone to want to pay for a show gets you jumped on around here.

Per Rollcall thread in reference to $25 Mudhoney tickets.  I am surprised nobody jumped on your ass on how "$38 is perfectly reasonable; they NEED to eat after all; and thats like 20 dudes between all of those bands; you cant have an opinion"

::)


all I'm saying is the show is obviously not "expensive"; more like you are "cheap"

don't take it as an insult just think about it...

there's what? 4 or 5 guys in the band? they tour every few years? they certainly don't make much money selling records given how everyone is into streaming, right? they're coming from clear across the country.. how much do you expect grown men to tour for? $25 is really reasonable... now if you can't swing it or don't want to that is your prerogative of course.... but "expensive"??? come on now!
So, according to hutch and others logic (i didnt copy the SEVERAL pages), you are being cheap, SO COME ON NOW.

(I think $38 is too much as well, its just funny what fights people pick and with who around here.  I guess some of us are second class citizens in the eyes of other board members and should not have opinions)

I think as a band, you have to have a good idea your market value, then design a tour whose total expenses are slightly below that.  If somebody balks at your price, that's an indication that you overestimated your worth. That or you weren't after that one bastard's money anyways.
