Is there a curfew by which time all bands must be finished?  I thought that was the case at Merriweather, but a friend tells me that Leonard Cohen played far in to the night recently...

plus $5 order fee....... plus $2 for printathome (no choice otherwise)......   Two $10 tix, in traditional TM way, now $33.....        (Yes I know that printathome is so MPP doesn't have to deal with willcall and there's no time to mail.....And I know the fees are reduced..... And a pair for $33 for a festival is a great deal......but the added 66% still gotta make ya laugh or cry)

funny, i could pull up 2 tix for $28:

Tickets (Virgin Mobile FreeFest)     
Full Price Ticket    US $10.00 x 2
Total Convenience Charge(s) US $3.00 x 2

Order Processing Charge(s)    US $0.00
TicketFast Delivery              US $2.00

TOTAL CHARGES    US $28.00

looks like i wasn't charged a $5 processing charge (then again i WAS charged it when i first ordered my tickets, and it hasn't been refunded by TM... too bad, since i didn't buy the above tickets).

WOWIE WOW WOW WOW

From craigslist:

2 Tickets to VFest/FreeFest - $25 (Carytown)

So, when this whole FreeFest thing got announced, I jumped on ticketmaster and got my 2 tickets, and kinda forgot about the thing until today when they came in the mail. And now, I just do not have the energy to haul myself up to Merriweather Post, fight for decent seats (since it's all GA), and endure the 30,000 Atticus wearing numbskulls who simply want to see Blink-182 play songs about poop and fucking. Oh, and it's supposed to rain too.

I guess if Blink-182 and Weezer died in some sort of bus crash on the way there, it would be pretty awesome because most of their idiot fratboy fans wouldn't show up and I could see the actual talent on the lineup like The National, The Hold Steady, Girl Talk, and Franz Ferdinand in relative peace, but as it is, I'm too old to put up with this nonsense. However, maybe YOU are not! If you want them, $25 gets you both. Will meet you anywhere in Richmond, but prefer Carytown or the Museum District.
