Live Nation Looking to Sever Ties with Ticketmaster?

Be interesting if this happens. Of course it could turn out like that South Park episode when they kill Wal-Mart and then support the local store until it gets huge. Then they burn that down, too.

Were you going to be in town for Sigh/Wolves? Because Wolves in the Throne Room are still playing July 3rd. Sadly though, they're opening up for Shitt(((0)))

Nah, I was gonna go up to Seattle for Wolves w/ Mayhem on the 18th/19th/whatever the fuck it was.

I'm more or less pissed off about Sigh, really. I've been wanting to see them for a good 4-5 years now.
