By Invitation Only

Because the service fees are almost as expensive as the tickets themselves?

They just raised taxes on tickets here. City is getting sued about it but I don't see it doing any good.

 

[upschuck]

Any kind of concert I’ve ever been to has similar fees.

Going to TS?

Cos, didn’t they bring back the “dislike” lucky charm? Why is it gone again?

I think it came back for a day or two, and someone complained.

The usual suspect?

This is an excellent example of society having unrealistic expectations of how people should look based on what they see in the media. Kind of like how men think women should look like Playboy models. The internet has blown up because Jason Momoa had a picture taken in “dad bod” shape. I’m sure there are millions of dads who would love to look like he does in the top picture.

Lol the only difference in those two pics could be a little water weight.

Most people do not have the genetics to walk around with a 6 pack 24/7. You need to be under 10% body fat for the abs to show. Most people the best they’ll do is 10-12%. You can train specially to hit a 1-2 week window for a photo shoot or take some pills that flush the water from your system. But the top pic is not a dad bod. That’s the best 90% of men could ever hope for.

The problem is even with competition each vendor has a monopoly on individual concerts they sell.

A lot of dirty business going on behind the scenes.

Yep. Some of it is performers wanting to appear to have cheap tickets then they get a piece of the fee also.

It’s just crazy what concert prices are. I refuse to be more than 100 feet or so away. If I can’t see them sing I’ll just sit at home and listen to the music. Any big name will set you back a grand for a weekend to go see them. Sorry lots more I can do for $1000

Agreed. I have been to a couple where I thought I should have brought friggin' binoculars.

Defeats the purpose of going to a concert.

What were they supposed to do?

Take preventative steps in case something like this happened. A lot of environmental cleanup was needed. I believe this is the 2nd time in a few years, I think I heard.

Spills are only OK when its the EPA that messes up.

Personally, I’d much rather a guy have a body like the top picture. He’s fit and looks healthy. The bottom picture he was getting ready for a movie. For regular guys when they look like the bottom pic it is a red flag to me that he’s probably self absorbed.

Such as? I’m serious here how do you stop lightning from striking your rickhouse

Our building is paranoid, if spills happen, due to runoff, and fines.

A lot of these fitness guys are like a car with a big engine but no gas. Just for looks

The bottom pic he also just lifted to pump his muscles up and let’s not kid ourselves. Probably some photoshop done.
