Yeah I'm sure they really give a shit.

I'm usually the first one to think the whole "Just Announced Commentary" thread idea is idiotic ridiculousness, but can we please enforce it for complaints about ticket fees so I don't have to read anymore moronic hipster entitlement complaints?? DRIVE TO THE FUCKING VENUE AND BUY THE TICKETS WITHOUT FEES IF IT BOTHERS YOU SO MUCH, AND IF THAT'S INCONVENIENT FOR YOU THEN PAY THE CONVENIENCE FEE. Goddamn.

wow  :o

Ummmm…thanks, and I just finally saw it, buried in all the other shit that people keep cluttering this page up with. So don't roll your eyes at me!! 

(just teasing)

If you can bicker with hutch over some inane bullshit for 2-3 pages straight, I can post a couple lines showing LN's attempts to gouge the hell out of people.
And yes, I understand the concept of paying a convenience fee but if you can't see that this shit has gotten out of hand, I don't know what to tell you.
Now I'll let this go so as not to perpetuate what may become Julian V. Hutch pt. 2 if I don't.

I think it more drives me crazy that people on this board seem unable to pay a ticketing fee without informing the rest of us of how much it was. We all know. No one on this board hasn't heard this argument before. We all know some people think they're high. No one is going to say anything different on this issue.

Ticketing fees have become the worst recurring joke on this board. It's BEN'S CHILI BOWL gone bad.

Oh yah well it drives me crazy reading your crap. If you'd let Azaghals post stand instead of ranting we'd have moved on by now. Instead of talking about charges now we're talking about whether talking about charges is acceptable. How is that any better?

Your act of ranting and insulting people has worn thing. Just a matter of time before you get banned. Keep it up, asshole.

ding ding let's get ready to rumble  ;D

Move along people.  Nothing to see here.

By the way with Live Nation you still have to pay some fees ($5 at least) if you buy at box office so there really is no way to avoid that…

The best thing to do is to completely ignore or bypass anything he says. Seriously, the kid's out to be an asshole whether he knows it or not. And no, I don't know because I don't pay attention to him.

Anywho, anyone get information on that Kia Soul tour bit? I know on the MGMT site it says you can go test drive a car and get a pair of tickets, but is it like that for all the shows they're having?

Re: MGMT and the Kia thing - I believe the test drive ticket thing is just for this particular MGMT show [in DC]. The show set up is coordinated by Kia - who scheduled shows in other cities w/ other bands.
MGMT and those other two bands happen to be scheduled for the DC area.
See that Kia page I referenced. And, I think MGMT's site shows normal tour dates (w/normal ways to obtain tickets) for their other shows under their tour section.

The KIA Dan Deacon free show: September 19th - Washington, D.C. @ 3330 New York Ave. NE (FREE)

dan deacon is also playing tonight in baltimore with a crapload of other bands at the cc annex

I'm still not completely convinced you two aren't the same person! Alot of us think the existence of two of you doesn't pass the smell test.

That said, if we wish to continue this circle jerk, let's kindly take it outta the Just Announced thread.
