    Hmmmmm...
    Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.

    3 times for free. Actually once was at a blackjack table in Vegas, so I kinda blew through $50 really quick, but I think Ed lost more. :)

    Which hotel? Eddie doesn't strike me as the gambling type. Drinking and smoking? Sure.

    me neither. not a big "meeting celebrities" type. I think it would be awkward, unless it was happenstance.

    Yes, he was just having fun. Didn't even know to split aces. :) True story. It was in Vegas after the 2003 show. Met Boom and Mike too the same night and saw Stone gambling at a table too.

    I'm in the same boat, but I'm just happy to go. It makes me feel better knowing that it's a charity benefit concert.

    If it's a great show, you won't think twice about paying the $250 with money to charity too. If it's not so good, well...you could always tell the story about how you blew $250 on concert tickets. Just leave the part off where they dropped the ticket prices by half the week before...you'll seem much cooler.

    I'll admit, I paid $500+ in presales, I'll be pissed if there's someone in better seats that paid less. That's not right.

    Down to $98 on Vivid Seats and $134 on StubHub. At this rate, I will for sure be in better seats than Pureandeasy, at a much better price!

    I'm giddy. Why wouldn't I be excited about potentially getting great seats at a great price?

    I bought a $750 seat and then discovered I need to be out of town for work that night. Put it up for way less than face on Lost Dogs and StubHub. Feel lucky someone bought it on StubHub but took a bath. Never bought the ticket with the intent to sell but learned the hard way its a pretty limited secondary market for the expensive seats so I feel good for the people that waited it out. After the Wrigley craziness I thought this would sell out pretty fast but clearly misread the tea leaves on this one. By far the worst part is missing Pete and Ed together for what will surely be a memorable night. I'm hoping the fact that it's all for charity makes me feel better at some point but right now I'm way more pissed about missing the show than losing some $. As a final kick in the seeds the Who canceled their show tonight in my town (Stl) so I am missing that as well.

    I'm in Madison, Wisconsin. About an hour and forty five minutes away. Let me know if you see anything!

    For sure, but evoking my name is like a slap in the face. We tend not to do that around here. Do you think I have no reason to be upset by this?

    At least you have a ticket, right? No reason to be upset. I'm still playing my chances. Enjoy the show.

    If I would have known I could probably get a $100 seat for much closer than 4 rows from the top like I snagged, I maybe would have waited lol! But really can hardly complain, I'm excited to be in the venue. A week from tonight, we will be rocking out with Ed and Pete!!!! So pumped!! I hope this week flies by!

    Exactly. I tried for tickets from day 1, with no luck (the $100 tickets), and essentially wrote off the chances of going to this concert.

    Same here. Tried and was denied at every sale.
