Watch this and you'll be happy to pay the fees, this is how the "Grateful Dead" is selling their tickets:

this cracked me up...they certainly know their core audience.
The company who produced that video could probably make a profitable career with instructional videos for kids applying for college (community that is)
 
What I want to see now is the parody videos of this

Hysterical!

Oh, to have that video back in the day.  Imagine trying to gather those instructions over the phone via a recorded message...with no visuals...and no rewinding.  Miss that PO box number?  You have to sit through the entire recording again.  How much was that delivery fee?  Listen through the whole thing again.  Long-distance charges apply, too.  Screw up the slightest thing and you get rejected.   I think I have a photo of the answering machine somewhere...

This whole ticket charge discussion is so silly and absurd.  In the words of a certain government official "at this point what difference does it make".  if you pay $75 for a ticket does it really matter if on paper it says "ticket $75" or "ticket $5, fee $70".  You still end up paying $75.  If whining about irrelevant shit were an Olympic event we would have some gold medal candidates right here in this forum.

It's Q And Not U. 

First, I am a little surprised (and impressed) that RB would dropping Q And Not U lyrics.  Second, I just happened to be wearing a Q And Not U tee yesterday (the one with the upside-down DC flag).

I'm still feverishly researching the minute possibility that Q and Not U covered an obscure Ted Nugent song for some reason...

Reminds me of one of the great triple bills at the Club.

Clinic (headliner)
Interpol
Q And Not U

This was before Interpol's first album was released.  They seemed more than a little nervous and stopped and restarted one song (Stella?).
