Dang, I kinda feel bad about going to Hammond now. The place looks nice too, but no standing room?

Still, the price is way better.

the low price seems odd to me. does this mean that it won't be as badass as the hammond show? what's the deal here.

yes. any concert under 20 bucks will suck. between 20 and 60 will be ok. anything over 60 will be a kick ass, awesome, kick your fuckin balls in concert.

i thought everyone knew this? i never go to any concert with a ticket price under 20 bucks. get with it, eulogy.

aw, come on. they made this big deal about the august shows being "special" and having higher prices so that only people with weird obsessions would go. and they seemed to have ditched that. you know what i'm getting at.

Shit guys, you better not totally spoiler the setlist for me.

Also, is anyone else's asshole sore? I mean after getting F'd in the A with ticket prices?



It's actually only 4 hours from where I live. I might be able to do this one too...

maybe they are experimenting with all different ticket prices and venues to see what kind of crowd they get for each.

maybe not.

Maybe because it's all ages and they know they'll sell more tickets than the 21+ Hammond show. The Hammond show will sell fewer tickets because of the age restriction, hence the price bump to compensate for the lack in sales. I'd like to think the band isn't all about money, but.....

Or maybe Ticketmaster got the price wrong and inverted the 3 and 8...

This is listed on the Ticketmaster site, but not on the official site yet. Ticketmaster says tickets will go onsale 7/19/08 and are only $38.00!!!! If this is true, I'll have 2 GA Floor tickets available for Hammond on 8/9/08 because I live in Davenport!!

Wow. It's actually listed on the Adler Theatre home page... yet not the SP official site yet. What's up with that?? Total capacity: 2400. All reserved seating. No GA Floor at this venue people. So buy early.

yeah! all that bitching and worrying for (almost) nothing! it's a lot further than hammond, but it's also cheaper. win some, lose some.

Actually under 20$ kick ass, 21-60$ just OK, 60-80$ once again kick ass range. Over 80$ The Police performing Sting covers of Police songs, AKA really sad.
