CONGRATS!!!

Hi Sassy ~ Gangsta persevered and was VERY successful this morning ~ but I'll let him tell you. We're going together so maybe I'll get to meet another famous orger! Where are your seats? Where are you traveling from? I am so excited and totally cannot wait. I saw Tori at the Strange Little Girls Tour and it was INTENSE ~ stunning but emotional draining.

SassyBritches said:

Detroit can be only 4 hours if you're really hauling ass. I'd give it more like 5.

I fared pretty well with tickets. I was refreshing like crazy before they went onsale and the best I could come up with the first 10 minutes was balcony seats. But then out of nowhere, some Diamond Circle opened up, so I snagged myself Row J. I'm pretty happy with that. At least I don't have to go through scalper nonsense again.

How you doin' on the Chicago show?

GangstaFam said:

7th row for chicago and 16th row for detroit. i'm workin' on that 16th row thing...its just not close enough for me, lol.

Just announced..the tour has been cancelled.












































just kidding. I hear she's amazing in concert. Though I've never seen her from what I've been told and read, I bet it's quite the experience. I hope you all enjoy the show. I'm happy for you.

Edited huh? I can only imagine what you said.

I'm about to go watch the "Beekeeper" dvd right now.

Chico319 said:

believe it or not it was just a typo...an "a" where an "s" should have been.

Chico319 said:

the dvd is pretty cool. after watching it i actually appreciated the cd a lot more.

GangstaFam said:

You were able to try for ten minutes? The NYC show sold out in under a minute.

HamsterHuey said:

i would love to see that band live. have you heard broken social scene? kind of similar but different, they are another band from the montreal music scene.

sextonseven said:

So did the San Francisco show and I didn't get anything. I can't afford to pay scalpers.

The scalpers got my tickets. They're now selling for $100 a piece on ebay.

Fucking assholes.

Yeah, they're all over ebay. One guy wants $400. Idiots.

heartbeatocean said:

Isn't it a rule that tickets can't be sold for anymore than their face value.

i have an extra pair for detroit if anyone's interested. at cost, of course...i'm no scalper!

SassyBritches said:

What kind of seats ya got?

GangstaFam said:

from downtown, i'd give it 6.

GrayKing said:

Slow!

GangstaFam said:

give or take whichever city's rush hour you have to drive through (or both, which i've actually managed to do a couple times).

I managed to miss the ticket sale. Now I have to find a way to get tickets.

GangstaFam said:

they are on the floor, row v. i bought them out of fear that i'd get nothing better or, worse, nothing at all. then i kept trying and i got better seats so now i need to off load these.

GrayKing said:

we're planning on leaving around 1pm. i'd like to get there in time to freshen up, though, and get a bite to eat...so, maybe noon.

SassyBritches said:

Do you know where you're staying yet?

GangstaFam said:

we're probably going to drive back the same night...i haven't looked into hotels yet. if we decide to stay the night i will look into it. by the way...where is the opera house? is it downtown detroit?

The Detroit Opera House is in downtown Detroit. http://www.motopera.org/

SassyBritches said:

Yes, it's right downtown. Have you been here before? It's just a few blocks away from Comerica Park, The Fox and State Theatres and Hockeytown Cafe/Second City. It's a nice venue too if I remember correctly.

Will you wait after for her? With the long drive here, the emotional experience that is Tori and the length of the drive, I would seriously consider getting a room. Even if you don't want to stay right downtown, you might want to look into something in Ann Arbor. Plus, you wouldn't have to deal with rush hour traffic the next day if you got out of the city at night.
