    all you have to do is call, donate a hundred, and your in, 250 a ticket, 150 tax deductible, free drinks, sounds like a no brainer to me

    No freaking idea. I definitely would be willing to do it for $250. Pearl Jam at the Beacon would be a once in a lifetime experience, because basically every seat in the house is good.

    I wouldn't spend $10k to see The Beatles (if Lennon, Harrison were alive and they happened to do a reunion tour)

    Ok, I decided to call back the Robin Hood Foundation, and I got the real info. You are required to donate at least $100 to the Foundation first, and then you have the option of getting up to 6 tickets. The cheapest tickets are $250 each, and they go way higher from there.

    Anyway, I donated my $100, reserved a $250 seat (balcony). The Robin Hood people will be calling me tomorrow to confirm that I made a donation (via their website) and will process and ship my ticket.

    Woo hoo!!!!

    She also confirmed open bar, and no opening band!!! This will be fucking amazing!!!!!!!!


    (Now, I'm really considering selling some posters to afford this. My beautiful Kenyon Hall may have to go)

    :(

    So it's $100 donation, then $250 for the balcony? So $350 total?
    I shit and I stink. I'm real, join the club.

    A friend, he called, I didn't mention a thing. The last thing he said was, "Be sound". Sound. I contemplated an awful thing, I hate to admit. I just thought those would be such appropriate last words. But I'm still here.
