The Wedding Present, Atlanta, GA, 1996

 

I met David Gedge before the show and told him I had just gotten dumped (how appropriate for a TWP concert, right?). I told him I had the extra ticket on me. Gedge asked if he could see the ticket and then asked what the girl's name was. I gave him the ticket and told him her name. Gedge wrote "Where are you, Jody?," signed his name, and handed me back the ticket. A few days later I bumped into Jody and gave her the signed ticket. She wasn't amused.

Hehe... awesome story.

I bought tickets to see Rufus Wainwright in 2002 on the Poses Tour. I was in high school and didn't have a driver's license, so I bought an extra ticket for a friend of my mother's who said she would drive me and my friend. A few days before the concert, the lady bailed because she "just didn't feel like driving that far" and talked her sister into doing it. Not only was it awkward because a. I didn't know her sister b. the sister was disapproving of homosexuality (it was Rufus Wainwright and Tori Amos... nuff said) and c. we were WAY late and therefore missed a meeting with some friends for dinner before the show.

I at least got to the show. I only got to see 2 Wainwright songs, though. I got a t-shirt and a couple of autographs out of the deal.

Jay should start wearing cute country hats and running in place during Chickamagua

Hilarious mental image. That's the LAST thing he would ever do.

You rock! I can't go either, but I just wanted to say how cool it is of you to do that. Maybe you'll start a trend or something!

bumpity bump

I got two tickets during the MusicToday presale, but they're in different sections. I have one at SEC 4 Row G seat 13 and one at SEC 3 Row E seat 113. If anyone has a ticket close to one onf my seats, I'd be willing to trade so that I can sit next to my friend. ANyone who can help me out, please let me know.

Hello... I bought two tickets to the Lakewood Civic Center show on the MusicToday presale... but I was only allowed to buy one at a time. So my boyfriend and I are in two completely different sections. Our seats are as follows:

SEC4 row G seat 13

SEC3 row E seat 113

Now, row G is 7 rows back and seat 13 is on the end, close-ish to the middle, and row E is 5 rows back almost right in the center. I'm willing to give up the really sweet row E seat to trade with someone back in row G if they're close to seat 13. Obviously, though, I'd rather keep the 5th row seat and trade the other ticket up if anyone's willing to do that for me.

Also look up Harry and the Potters... hilarity. I'm trying to talk my boyfriend into seeing them play a free show in Cleveland at the public Library, but he's totally not amused.

Another artist named Michael Leviton is using Invision Power Board on his site. He has been having problems with an insane amount of spammers trying to register an account so they can post advertisements on his board. How does ViaChicago.org control spammers?

Like macaroni and cheese for the ears?

That can be messy and damaging

i just shot marvin in the face.

That's a little rude, doncha think. How would you feel if someone shot YOU in the face?

Someone randomly wandered into the room from anotehr IRC chat. He had never heard of Wilco, so i directed him to their site and he's listening to SBS right now haha. I'm amused... the whole chatroom thing isn't for nothing :-D

Actually, I believe if Peter's been robbed, he likely has at most a single testicle. Unless he started with more than two, in which case, it's more like Robin Hood.

...yeeeeah

I'm there now if anyone's interested!

You just aren't giving up on this, huh?

Nope... I figure I'll keep bumping this thread until it gets annoying and someone tells me to stop. I won't start another one, though... that really would be obnoxious.

I just post on it whenever I'm in the room in case someone feels like chatting. I don't get out much haha. Actually, that's going to change after this weekend, so this thread will probably die then.

Yeah, nevermind, it looks ridiculous.

yeah, but the guy from the GEICO ads is not going to be in the show.

I'd probably watch it anyway I think the commercials are entertaining

I assume you are referencing the fact that they are making a caveman TV show based around the geico caveman TV ads. While I appreciate your optimism about the show and will concede that "caveman ordering duck with mango salsa" is pretty funny, I don't think it's a concept with enough legs to base a whole show on.

I would watch it... Seriously... the guy who plays the caveman is a stand-up comic who is pretty funny

To be completely honest I'm only even vaguely aware of who you are.

Ok first of all, I'm not 100% in love with your tone right now.

Okay, I'm out. Try again tonight.

I checked the website - the info's taken down.

I'm sure it'll be posted again after this season's over.

I was hoping for 50 pages, but this is getting pretty weak. Anyone know how many pages the spiders thread went?

Oh great, I start posting again and it becomes "weak" pfft

Damn, I should've kept up on that. I got just about every question right on that last season.

This season doesn't start until July sometime.

Maybe you shoukd form a team and audition! My friend made it, you could too.

Does Peter have three testicles?

And sure enough the next post was.................Well I drive a Honda and I also like Wilco.

I believe that too. I believe anything anyone tells me

Is that the VH1 thing?

Yessir!
