Seen both bands before but always a solid show with lots of good tunes. Crows can be hit or miss from my past experience as far as performance goes. MB20 just rolls through there catalogue of hits. Free lawn tickets from the settlement on service fees so why not?

[ToySoldier#34]

So far ..

Bon Iver (Boston Calling)
Dave and Tim (SPAC)
Head and the Heart (Boston)

... and apparently I'm going to see Colin Hay solo acoustic tonight for the first time for free, being a solo acoustic player myself this should be a nice treat!

I haven't seen it since 2001, when I was either 18 or 19. I took a girlfriend to it for her birthday and had no idea what it was. I was bored out of my mind. I didn't like theater back then, though. I've grown up.


I'm excited.

Mom won tickets somehow. They were good seats.

Felt bad because I didnt care all that much and I saw a lot of people getting turned away with fakes.

Some dude in the will call line had fakes for him and his gf that looked legit.. so he lost out on those then ended up buying the only tix available left which were $235 a piece. Ouch.

Dont buy tix on craigslist.

very lucky, people are going crazy trying to get some for his philly show.

yeah I can imagine


A lot of fakes were out there, it even made the news. I saw a group of about 10 people that were dumb enough to buy printed out copies of printed tix and were surprised they wouldnt scan and were bitching at the box office employees.

[ExistenceNow]

I love when people buy scalped tickets and they turn out to be fake. It gives me immense joy.

[coldengrey12]

I don't have a show lined up right now and it's the first time in years that I haven't had something planned. It's really strange.

I'll probably go to Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Fest XVII in October, but that's free to attend, so I'm not really counting that.

They were awesome at Boston Calling and I hope to see them again, they probably have the strongest bass tone of anything I've ever seen live. I don't literally mean bass guitar but the vocal thing Justin Vernon has just goes straight through your chest.

sweet! I've never seen him live so I am very pumped. I was thinking it was going to be a lot harder to get tickets than it was, but it was really smooth and easy.

Yeesh - that sucks.

Even at this point I'm becoming leerious of even buying tickets on StubHub. But I've bought some through the resell version on TM (which is BS TM allows people to resell for more than face).

I've been watching TM like a hawk for prices to drop to at least semi-reasonable prices but no luck. I'm not gonna fork out $180 to sit behind the stage in the top row.

Why would you be worried about stubhub? Worst comes to worst you get your money back, and most of the time if you dont get what you bought they just match it with comparables.

And yeah unless his stage setup is different, maybe it is idk, no chance is it worth sitting behind the stage, the entire view would basically be blocked if the setup was the same I saw Tuesday.

[coldengrey12]

It's a little tinfoil-hatted, but I think TM funnels tickets to StubHub, so I generally think SH is trustworthy to buy from.

That's good to know. I'd just heard (from somewhere probably unreliable) that SH had more people being scammed as of late. I knew at least with TM the tickets are verified and transferred 100% guarantee.

Theres definitely prospective sellers are on there but its still safe to buy from. Youre never gonna lose out on money.

[dpduke5173]

Saw Green Day in Raleigh last night for the first time. They put on one hell of a fun rock show. The weather almost held off but started to pour during the first encore. Glad we weathered the elements in the end though.

[DMBstandUP1984]

Saw Lady Gaga at Fenway last night...great show.

After we ran over to house of blues where she joined Brian Newman on stage for about 5 songs. Never realized how tiny she was until I was about 10 feet from her
