Easy super fan, sure sounds like you are the one that is pissed off because you have to pay again if you want to see the LAST show. But hey I was referring to the collective "you."
But hey if you wrote that out of kindness for the people who are dying to see the last spectrum show but cant for whatever reason, then power to you. Im sure there was no self interest at all in making this thread.
My "self" interest was for the many people I know who bought these tickets with the expectation of it being the last show. I know it may be difficult to comprehend entire paragraphs as opposed to sentences, though. Go back and read the entire post.
stop insulting me db
and the world thanks you for that fine piece of criticism, since you don't care either way
maybe we can arrange for all you people who "just want to be at the last show no matter who is playing but just to be at the last show" to have some alone time with the building before the wrecking ball crashes through that bitch!
I'm mean come on...the Boston Garden was 1,000,000 x more historic than the Spectrum and i don't remember anyone in Boston getting all crazy over the "last show"..which wasn't Pearl Jam...so count your blessings instead of bitching...you guys are going out in style!!!!

quit your bitching. enjoy the music and don't worry about if the show is going to be legendary enough for you and your elitist friends.
Well here's my situation and it's not one to complain about....but I do have thoughts on it. I have fanclub tickets to the Wed and Fri shows. So I, greedily, sort of don't want a Saturday show added because as it stands, I have fanclub tix to the final show at the Spectrum...which is sweet. But if a third show is added, I'll be in the postion where I'd feel as if I have to be at the show...but I can't really afford it. And even if I just say 'fuck it' and get tickets anyway, they might be shitty seats compared to Wed and Fri.
Of course the people who got shut out of tickets for the Wed and Fri shows are probably thinking "Hey Ledbetterman10, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!"

I can understand what you're saying. Why not sell your Wednesday night tickets if you score Saturday night?
Small pain to go to the venue to do the exchange, but worth it for $165.
"They said ... timing was everything
made him ... want to be everywhere
there's a ... lot to be said for nowhere."
I didn't go to the scalper yet and pay ridiculous prices for night 2 because I was holding out for night 3. So I will be very happy to get another chance for 10C tickets. Also if I get night 3 ,people will be more willing to trade night 2. Did that make sense? LOL!
Not to the glass-half-empty people.

Not a bad idea, but my buddy already paid me for one of my Wednesday tickets so I wouldn't want to do that. If they add a Saturday show, i'll somehow scrounge up enough money to be ready for a presale. Maybe I'll whore myself to 4 fat girls for $20 a pop (or 20 fat girls for 4 dollars a pop if need be).

Thanks for this post. I don't agree with everything you said in it 100%, but I think it was well thought out and well written. I see your point and have selfishly thought that I would have rather gotten 10C tix for the 31st show instead of the 30th, had I had that option (can't afford multiples this go round and didn't want to risk it and wait for the 31st announcement).
Anyway, just wanted to say that since you were getting beaten up a little.
Anyone with even a cursory understanding of the concert biz knows that shows get added quite often if demand warrants an additional show.
I don't think that people have the right to be pissed if the 31st is added......there was never a guarantee that the 30th would be the last-ever show at the venue.
I find it odd that people get bothered when their version of reality doesn't turn out to be the actual reality of a situation....makes it tough to show emphathy towards them!

Just remember this is America and you can tell someone to f-off if you like!! Once your freedom of speech is taken away...well you'd say, "welcome to North Korea"

Since I can't make any of the other shows, if they play on 10/31, that will be the only potential date I can make. ...so here's to hoping.
