    wow 3500 on concerts? thats alot of dough..

    I usually see 2 or 3 shows on a tour.. or used too.. seattle/vancouver shows.

    but that'd be 60-80 bux a ticket.. so maybe 300 for tickets.. a hundred my portion of a hotel, and maybe 100 in gas and ferry fees and what not.

    so 400 bux plus food and beer. maybe 5 or 6 hundred for 3 shows?

    3500 that'd almost me through a whole leg of a tour? holy crap :)

    most shows I ever saw on a tour was in 2000.. saw the warmup in vancouver, and the last 4 on tour in portland, boise, idaho.. didn't even spend that much really.

    I'm thinking at least 5 shows. I'm not sure if I'm going to spend all of it but I just had to make sure I'd have enough for airfare+hotel+posters+t-shirts ect....

    if you plan properly, that is WAY more than you should have to spend for 5 shows.

    I'm sure $3500 is way more than I'll need for five shows. I'm thinking for at least two shows buying some really nice seats. So if that means paying out the wazoo for them on a scalp site then so be it :lol:
