Saturday I went outto buy tickets for Franz Ferdinand playing in Glasgow in October, I was about 20-30 people away from buying them (I witnessed a bus crash too, whilstI waited), and they were sold out.
Nothing wrong with that, what's wrong is, you go and check eBay for some tickets and there's like 50 people selling tickets for 40 quid each.
It's crap, they shouldn't be allowed just to by tickets and then sell them on straight away (And there's no way that many people randomly discovered they couldn't go less than a week after tickets go on sale, theywere up within minutes of them selling out), so, now, instead of having to pay 13.50 for a ticket, I'm gonnahave to pay something along the lines of 31.50 minimum if I want tickets to see them.

People suck.

Yeah, well, they've got an under 18's matinee going on on the same day as the gig, tickets still for sale, at 8.50 each (INC booking fee, I think).

Buying them tickets I will be.

When FF put out tickets for their first UK tour, they weren't big. I knew they would be the next in band, and so I bought tickets. £9 each, plus £2 booking fee.

When I went to the gig, they had made it big, and people were offering £40+ per ticket.

They rocked live, by the way.

Their second UK tour has doubled in price. :c(

'Fraid it always happens, though. I buy tickets at 9am, when they go on sale. It saves disappointment.

Do what I do, stay in all day every day.

People call you sad, but don't worry, we hate them.

Join the norm, don't go out!

Listening to a CD is nothing like a concert.

I still get goosebumps every time i hear the opening strings of Basement Jaxx's 'Good Luck'.

But listening to a cd, you're just sitting around fiddling, when you're at the concert, you're getting drunk with your mates, and trying to pull fit birds whislt listening to great music.
Can't do that at home.

It's betta listening to teh CD anyway. When you go there Live you'll have to stand up, your feet will be killing you and you'll have all wired FF nutters screaming random comments like 'My mum is a man'. At home you'll be nice and cosy with no sweaty wierdos bashing against you.

I went to Silverstone recently, and I have to say watching it on TV is betta. The cars destroy your ear drums when they go past.

Just listen to a CD and pretend they're playing live.

They probably just mime anyway.



I'm bitter since N-Sync broke my heart.
