Is anybody else a bit put off by the Pizza Underground Verizon show pricing?

Pizza Underground
Verizon
10/21

US $99.00 Ticket + US $15.85 Fees = US $114.85
US $49.00 Ticket + US $12.55 Fees = US $61.55

I think the top tier are for the floors...


Thankfully some of us will always have the Black Cat before they went stratosphere...

Man, if only the Velvet Underground had sung about pizza instead of drugs, look at the popularity they would have achieved. I guess Lou Reed wasn't a genius after all.

I think of the Underground as more of a lark band... kind of like Spinal Tap or the Ruttles...think even Tenacious D... but I guess with social media and irony mania I guess they're jut the first to tap into that mass popularity level....

I attribute it to the influx of white people into DC.

We all know that black people do drugs at eight times the rate of white people. That's simple logic. So what do white people do in excess? They eat pizza. And with so many white people moving into million dollar condos in semi-inhabitable neighborhoods, this pizza underground thing just couldn't stay underground for long. Now I see why Culken shed Mila Kunis. He didn't want to share the pie with her, he wanted this whole empire to himself.

Is anyone else interested in starting a pizza related band called The Smashing Pizzas? It wouldn't be a copy of Pizza Underground; we'd be a Chicago Deep-Dish style pizza band as opposed to their NY/Sicilian style pizza band.

Well you may be on to something but I don't know if I'd go as far as all that....

As far as Kunis I still don't get that...I don't usually go for celebrity types but...

The big difference being that the Smashing Pumpkins sucked.

I'm open to other Chicago based pizza concepts. Cheap Pizza? Liz Pizza? Pizza Overkill? REO Pizzawagon?

SORRY.

I think you'd have to go with New Haven Style pizza for that one.


Phair was born in New Haven, Connecticut, but was raised in Winnetka, Illinois, by upper middle-class adoptive parents

All of Liz Phair's musical success came when she was living in, and associated with the musical scene of, Chicago. I feel that's somewhat splitting hairs.

Fine, My Life With The Pizza Kill Cult, then.

Paul Simon and Sting
Strathmore
3/12

US $250.00 Ticket + US $22.85 Fees = US $272.85
US $1,000.00 Ticket + US $42.55 Fees = US $1,042.55

Has this show been canceled? It was there when I looked yesterday, but I just checked, and Ticketmaster says, "Sorry, but this event no longer exists in our database."

Moved to Verizon 3/13 and in the process, has seen a huge change in price-point (now $60.00 / $281.60 after fees)

http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/15004B138E5D2200

For what it's worth, neither Strathmore's site nor Paul Simon's site list the originally-announced event at Strathmore on 3/12 (though yesterday Strathmore's site had it listed).

Nope, the Verizon show's been announced for months.

The Strathmore show is still listed here, and they have their own ticket selling site here.

Holy shit....I applaud you Rhett!
