Hartford Line Clusterfuck Check-In

Fighting Hellfish

Just curious as to how many people, or at least people on the board, were affected. my guess last night was 600, but people around me said it was well over 1000. To make it easy, please just check in, so the number of posts in the thread gives us an easy way to count. Thanks

Because everyone that was in-line comes to this message board?

to be fair, he did realize that not everyone on the line comes on the board, and was seeing how many on the board was affected.




that line basically ruined my fuckin night. i tried to calm down during small town when i finally got in though...

i got there areound 7:30 ... the line was a little long, but it didnt take more than 10 minutes for me to get my 10c tix. i guess i missed the press.

Here's what he said

He said that because he was having a debate with someone that felt there were over 1000 people and he felt there were about 600.

So unless he knows the exact percentage of people that were on-line who come to this board how is that going to be an accurate count or a count of any kind at all? It just doesn't make any sense.

thanks for fucking up any possible easy count with post number 2. What a dickhead thing to do. I very clearly said, I was looking to see how many people on the board were affected.

was there this much bitching when this happened at Gorge I in 06???

Yeah and you fucked it up even worse by posting that one. Heh...just kidding.

Anyway, I'd have to say that "clusterfuck" was a bit of an understatement. Missed 9 songs. Ended up missing alot of good songs that I havent heard in a while. Cant Keep, and Big Wave were the biggest dissapointments to miss.

And I love that fact that squatters were in my seats when I got there. Fuckin asshole.

In '06 I had a bad experience at that place and I told myself that the only way I'd ever go back to that shithole venue again was if Pearl Jam was playing there. Now fuck that...I wont even go back for them.

Enjoy my 10 club seats, whoever gets them, for the next Hartford show because I surely will not be using them.

Fuck the thimbull full, $8 beers, fuck the mile away from the venue parking, fuck the 2 hour ten club line (i know its not their fault), fuck the lame crowd (and they were lame as hell), just fuck that ass-clown-town, Hartford alltogether.

great, another winner who wasn't there, but thinks he knows what he's talking about. (SomethingCreative)

and yes, i made it worse by posting myself, you're right. It just pissed me off that some wad had to go and fuck it up immediately. Yet another reminder that 98% of the people in this fan club are awesome people, and 2% are not. Like the people who felt the need to cut in last night's line, then jumped in a conversation about cutters with outright indignation. Then they proceeded to cut again as they got close. yeah, i'm talking about you, if you're a 50 something balding fat schlubb wearing a parking lot knockoff PJ shirt and a Red Sox hat. Whose last name begins with either an A, B, C or D

How do you know his name begins with A, B, C or D? The Ten Club windows weren't divided by name.

As for the point of this topic, define "affected". Are you asking how many were late inside? In that case, not me. But if you just mean how many people had to endure that line, then yeah, I waited in that hot, sweaty line. But luckily got there early enough.

Oh well. Not too many people like me here anyway. I might as well add you to the list. Not to worry though. I won't lose any sleep over it. Back to the Captain!
