Front Row

Post by BilltheLizard »

I just checked TM for tonights show and wouldn't you know it I pull FRONT ROW. And I truly mean actual FRONT ROW tickets. OCH1 Row H which is front row at Ford Amphitheatre.

I just want to cry. :cry: It take me over 2 hours to get to Tampa. Had I pulled these up a couple hours ago I would be going.

How come the day they go on sale I can't get anything, but less than two hours prior I get front row??? Life is pretty cruel sometimes. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Sorry, had to rant.
I've got coastal confessions and a few more, how about you?

I would have only been able to bring one of my keets and had to leave the other in tears.

I will miss seeing Jimmy front row everytime if it means not having to break one of my little girls hearts.

Damn, if I were down there, I would have got the ticket.
If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.

I gotta say I am glad I didn't get the tickets and try to make the show.

I figured we would probably had gotten to our seats at around 9'ish if we were lucky. Now I am a big Bubba fan, but to have paid over $330+ for my keet and I to see a little over an hour of live music, I would have been pretty bummed.

I guess sometimes I make some pretty good decisions. However, I do hope the person that got those seats had a hell of a great time.

I learned the silver lining principle from my mom.
If you look hard enough at anything you can always find the good or the bad, so why not always look hard to find the good. :lol:

I couldn't agree more Penny. I will just mentally put that money towards a trip to Key West to spend a couple nights and sit front row at Hog's Breathe listening to Scott Kirby play. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Even worse....
I went to both shows....amazing. Especially Saturdays.
But on Thursdsay, my boss had tickets and couldnt make it. He gave me two of his reserved seat tickets, which he asked me to get what I could for them. $130 face value. I tried for multiple hours while tailgating, and even went to the entrance early. Couldnt' sell them for anything. Ended up walking into the show with two extra seats in my pocket. Hurt my heart that two other Prtheads somewhere had to just listen on satellite radio instead of being there in person.....
