coming to my senses

I can't go to a concert with a ticket that costs $250. It's just not right. It's counter to everything I stand for about music. Here at particleman.org, we stand for things, and one of those things is not price-gouging music fans. I saw Fugazi for $5. I can't possibly see a show with a $250 ticket.

So instead, I think the My Chemical Romance/Muse show in two weeks is more reasonable. It's $30. I think I can handle that. The only thing that bothers me is that Muse isn't the headliner, they're the opener, so their set will be short.

Particleman.org therefore says, "F**k The Police." They charge too much.

I concur. That's way too much to charge. Ridiculous. I support your decision to boycott them on principle. Plus, the beer will probably be more affordable at the Muse show. Arenas usually charge $10 for a small cup of Bud Light. You're better than that.

Pam:

$250 would be a tough pill to swallow for me too. At least they would have been floor but in all honestly floor seats can be much worse than arena seats at times. I think you made the right decision, and I need to be more thankful that I got mine for just over $100 each.
