Postcards from the Edge

Gchat conversation, Saturday morning, 9/27, at 10:19 am:

10:19 AM Risa: morning

me: hi

10:20 AM im up for the counting crows presale

Risa: yay

me: well

i bought a 3 day pass

so the bad news

is that i cannot afford to buy

2 3 day passes

it was $487

10:21 AM so i have to find people to buy

singleton tickets

using my presale code

bc im not paying for another 3 day pass

its insanely expensive

Risa: sounds it

10:22 AM me: im presuming you have no interest

in going

Risa: where is it

in the city?

me: montclair nj

10:23 AM during the week

Risa: when

me: thats the kicker

Risa: what night

me: mon weds and thurs

oct 27 29 30

you dont have to make a decision now

Risa: i could go on the 30th
me: theyll be available for at least another week

10:25 AM the only problem i see

with this entire situation

(not just you)

is that obviously i get to these things

waaaaaaaaaaaaay early

in order to be front row

or close to it

and obviously people have jobs

and school

and they cant just like

10:26 AM start standing in line

at like 4pm

and while im happy to do the standing myself

if people show up at like showtime, there is no way whomever was showing up

would be able to push their way to the front

10:27 AM seeing as the theatre holds 2000

and its general admission

so i have to work out that kink in my mind first

as you can see

10:28 AM i have fallen off the counting crows deep end

10:30 AM Risa: yes
