please try to tone it down, its slightly ridiculous.
personally i'm torn... on the one hand it is predictable and boring. i mean, most of rhett's contributions are "don'ts" - i don't get it, i don't want to go, i don't like it, i don't get how anyone else can like it, etc. maybe being oppositional-defiant is the new mainstream? (that would definitely get him to change his ways :p )
on the other hand, it gets debate going. i just need to remind myself that i'm not going to change his mind, and not take his curmudgeoness seriously. there is no justifying taste.

So should every thread just be a long list of "woohoo, I'm going"? How interesting is that?
as interesting as automatically pissing on everything? :p
"roll call" threads serve two purposes, as far as i can tell: seeing who's going to the show and how excited they are about it, and a place to come back and post reviews, post-concert questions, etc. as the incubus fiasco taught us, one-stop shopping is a good thing. "roll call" threads help keep things neat. i guess it also provides a place to ask "why"...
if i wasn't packing tonight i'd definitely be at the weird al show.
