The Rolling Stones are playing at Fenway park this Sunday.
I'm on the internet a while ago, decide to go to boston.com to read up on the Red Sox getting their asses handed to them last night. See this huge bulletin: "Extra Stones tickets being released on ticketmaster at noon." It was only a few minutes after noon, so I jump right over to ticketmaster.
Try to get two tickets. Nope. See if I can get one. Yup. Now, I'm not figuring I'm actually going to attend the show. Usually with these big name acts, like U2, Stones...you can resell the tickets for much higher than face value.
So I grab my one ticket, at a measly $200. Ugh.
Check Craigslist, AFTER paying for it.
Ummmm, yea....looks like it's a "buyer's market" for Rolling Stones tickets.
Looks like I'll most likely be going to a concert El Solo. Unless I want to lose money on the ticket. But who knows.
I'm a dumbass.
there is never a guarantee that you are buying a REAL ticket when you see a 'for sale' sign for them by some lone gunman..
you HAVE a real ticket
your GOING to the show
and I envy you jackass...
I'd rather my $200 back...plus some.
I've done that a few times before. I actually thought I was going to do it as a side business--buying tickets, selling them on e-bay for a nice profit--but yeah, you have to pick the right band, show, or event, or you're stuck. Or you have to have really good seats.
Jackass.
i cant believe stones tickets are 200 bucks..
can they even dance around anymore?
Or do thier fake hips and wheel chairs get in the way?
jackass
$200 was a cheaper ticket. There are tickets over $400 face value.
I think for whatever reason they're expensive because it's at Fenway Park, where the Red Sox play. They've only had a couple concerts there before.
I want my money back now...I just hired a mover for the end of the month...getting ready to let the expenses start flying.
I'm a jackass...jackasses.
ticket master in albq used to let people return tickets if it was within a 24 hr period.
maybe there is a loop hole like that you can use
for your benefit
jackass
I'll buy the ticket back... but you have to pick me up at the airport, get me to Fenway and back to your place, then next am run me up to Chelmsford to see mom's grave then back to the airport. Deal?
PS If I can find someone to loan me the 200 bucks......and take care of my airfare.....
I am currently trying to get my little hands on McCartney tickets. But how successful that will be, who knows. Ticketmaster is telling me there aren't any available. *sigh* Whatever.
McCartney?
ooooo
I feel better now.
You know how I found out you can get a refund on ticket master tickets?
I got sick the day I bought tickets to ( drum roll )
George Strait.

Hey! I AM going to see Tori Amos tonight.
And yes, I pee standing up.
Tori Amos?
Im outta the loop...
who is that?
anyone can pee standing up
it is the ones who keep it from running
down their legs that are impressive.
Tori Amos is a female musician/pianist. Like Sarah McLachlan. I'm officially the only straight male who is a Tori Amos fan.
The crowd at these shows is quite amusing.
How do the Stones keep a straight face?
They haven't had a number 1 record since 1981, and they're charging $200?
The new album supposedly gets back to their "roots."
Um, when you wear Panda skin robes and snort gold dust and charge 200 bucks for a ticket, yer a little bit removed from your roots, and you're not "rock n' roll," not even if you're the Stones.
Do they still do Street Fighting Man? "But what can a POOR boy do?"

Sarah is fabulous in concert. Stunning voice.
I don't think Tori is a Lilith Fair performer. But there are plenty of ugly-ass women that go to her shows, whatever their sexual orientation may be.
I've never seen Sarah in concert, I got her cd's too, but like Tori better though.
Uh, I mean, I'm a MAN! HELL YEA! I like to burp and watch football! Dumb bitches, fetch me beer, and make it swift!
Stumble It!
