Yeah, I do dig the crap out of Tool, it's true. I'll tell ya something though, increasingly I think I'm through with Arena shows. I go to a lot of concerts (as do most here I suspect).....but lordy lordy are them arena shows expensive. I paid $140 for tickets through Ticketmaster (two tickets, as I took a good friend with me). It cost $20 to park. Yup, $20. I had two beers, one of which my friend bought me, but the price on those two total was $14. So, all things told, that's a total of $175 for the show, NOT including a t-shirt, which I balked on because they were all at least $38, and most were much more.
Blind Guardian at the Fillmore tickets go on sale on Sunday, they are $21.50.
haha. The difference is ridiculous. My Celtic Frost ticket was $30, but with no charges as it's also at the Fillmore, and so there's no point in buying online and paying all those charges. Just get 'em at the local outlet.
But, seriously, it's outrageous. I'm pretty much decided on seeing, at most, one or two arena shows a year, and those have to be MUST see. Christ, don't even get me started on the Rolling Stones....
Ha. This, I think, because a new song "Rossetta Stoned" was kind of the centerpiece of the night. It's basically about an LSD "overdose". Anyhoo, the visuals were there, but with LOTS of new additions etc. Lazers, etc. etc. It was bitchin.
