 I'm sitting at home moping.

Do you know if they even had tickets available? Would really suck to go all that way up there only to find out the show was sold out and no one on the street was selling any. Yet, I understand your desire for wanting to go. The man puts on an incredible show.

 Just out of curiosity, what are everyone's favorite NC&tBS albums?

I've got them all, but my favorite is Abbatoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus. I know it's fairly recent, but it's just so perfect to me. Both albums are brilliant.

Murder Balids by far.

Ditto, but not by so much.
 I also love Henry's Dream and Let Love In.

give us a little credit, we would've checked first and made sure we had a way in

I've never gotten shut out of a show when looking for extras outside But I still wouldn't travel 2.5+ hours empty-handed knowing in advance that a show is sold out.

haha I dunno if there were tickets for Philly or not, didn't look...did it sell out?  I'm sure we would've gotten in fine.  I got into Monday's sold out show without buying a ticket, no problems!
 
 Uuuugh Cali...we should've gone!!  Haha ok maybe not...but still!
 
 TOTAL NICK CAVE WITHDRAWAL!

TOTAL NICK CAVE WITHDRAWAL!

Me too. It's been 4 days and I still haven't been able to get seeing  The Mercy Seat  live out of my head. Unbelievable. Shoulda gone both nights. Unbelievable.

I too am in Nick Cave withdraw. I usually recover quickly from concerts unless they're surreal. Why was this one surreal? Because I never thought I'd ever see him and the band live in person!
 
 I have this cool poster of Nick when he was maybe still in the birthday party. His hair is all ratty cool looking and he's wearing this "I hate the police" type tshirt. It's a really awesome poster that I've owned for the last 4 years or so. The poster sits over the night stand in my bedroom back home in Frostburg.
 
 So last night, I come home from college and I walked into my room. I stood there in front of the poster, looking at it and just said out loud "I still can't believe I fucking saw Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. I still can't believe I got him to sign my singles collection album cover..."
 
 Needless to say, I went to bed with the Let Love In album playing on my stereo.

Dreams really do come true.
 
 Today Nick Cave, tomorrow The World.
