Just Announced

[challenged]

just my guesss but the Spoon show is likely a daytime students only show at the "mount vernon" campus of gw in upper northwest...

From the GW Hatchet:

"Program Board announced Sunday that the Spring Fling and Fountain Day concerts will be combined this year to form "Fountain Fling," an all-day event on the Mount Vernon campus on April 25.

PB said the event was moved to the Mount Vernon campus after they learned that the Smith Center would not be available as a rain site for Spring Fling due to "scheduled construction projects on the building," according to a news release.

"Fountain Fling has been in conception since the beginning of the year when we learned that the Smith Center would not be available," said Sara Miran, PB-PC liaison. "There will be a major headliner performing at Fountain Fling that will be released at a later date."

That is correct.

Is it wrong that I'm considering paying $10 to go to this just to see two attractive girl-fronted bands?

No. The girl-fronted band that opened for Plants and Animals was fukkin' epic. The fact you are willing to go out to Nissan for two horrible bands is wrong, though.

I live less than a mile from Nissan, so getting there is not a problem for me.

Undoubtedly the most over rated band ever in the history of music.  Three second rate musicians led by one huge megalomaniac who can't sing his way out of a bucket.

A laughable statment from a guy who has seen Sevendust 50 times and Puddle of Mud in the double digits.  Unless you were for some reason being paid to be at those shows in which I take it back.

I'm not much of a fan of U2 after Unforgettable Fire, and yes bono suffers from a hefty dose of megalomania, but the rest of your statement is actually pretty funny.

I bet tickets are 200 bucks for the field.

Not according to this.

In a statement issued today, the band's manager Paul McGuinness said: "U2 has always been at their best when surrounded by their audience, this staging takes a giant leap forward. With 85% of the tickets priced at less than ?95 [$119.40], general admission floor tickets priced at ?55 [$69.12] and at least 10,000 tickets at every venue priced at around ?30 [37.70], we have worked very hard to ensure that U2 fans can purchase a great priced ticket with a guaranteed great view."

Hmmm well that sounds good.  So at most 119 possibly.  Don't know why it also says 69.12 for field when 119 is also mentioned.  What could be more then field?
