    It just bugs me that so many people complained for so long about the last few 10c pre-sales, and then when they try to make a change, people say that the old way was better. We can't have it both ways.


    Yes! Didn't most people say they liked the lottery system for the Missoula show? I found it strange that there was so much negativity with this test. Maybe it was only a few, very vocal people! But I agree, you can't have it both ways, and certainly a lottery system is much less stressful for all!

    Getting back on track.... Play Minnesota PJ!

    Prince will perform two shows each night on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at the Dakota Jazz Club.
    January 16-18
    The shows escalate in price, starting with $70 for the "Soundcheck" show, $150 for "Jam" and $250 for "Surprise."

    No Prince tickets, but I got Wild tickets. Yeah, I came crawling back, but so what? Its a hobby and frankly, I can't wait for the season (albeit shortened) to begin.

    i'm on board with the ticketing system. mainly it gives everyone a chance at tickets, and anyone complaining about that is selfish. yes, it stinks we won't know right away, but doesn't anybody remember the times we had to send in money orders and wait, not knowing FOR SURE if we'd even get tix?... the only fear i have is that scalpers (or abusers) will create multiple accounts to maximize their potential.


    anyway, just went to cheapo vinyl in saint paul only to find they are consolidating their vinyl and cd/dvd shops into the smaller vinyl store. all that glorious vinyl is now condensed into the back third of the store. ugh. :/

    Oh no! How will they fit all the CD/DVD stuff in there? I would think they'd use the other store. Also, parking on that side of the street is awful! "Ugh" is right...

    the newly vacant space is looking likely to be a bw3. i like bw3, but not there.

    a few weeks back the clerk told me this move *may* be coming, but i had completely forgotten. the reason for moving to the vinyl side instead of vice versa was because of the rent. i guess the owner is cheap and often acts on whims.

    I wonder if anyone got laid off then. Both stores have pretty good people behind the counter.
