I really can't stand ticketmaster either though. They're a major part of the problem because they allow the legallized scalping to continue. Just imagine if every other consumer product on the market was the same way.

I have mixed feelings about ticketmaster. I am not a fan of them, nor will I ever be convinced to be one. I'm okay with the actual charge for the tickets, however, the "fees" are outrageous and just plain highway robbery. As opposed to the ridiculously inflated ticket prices when going to...

For the past 2 years at Greatwoods our group of friends has brought at least 3 digital cameras into each show and took a ton of pictures hanging out in the lawn and never had any problems. I think they were too concerned with all of the drinks we were trying to finish up while going through the chec...

Just want to say one more thing on this topic. Everyone here knows that Jimmy preaches the "Write what you know about" theory when it comes to writing his music. This is evident in most of his albums. FSOTW comes first to my mind. The same thing is true with Kenny. He did his No Shoes albu...

Kenny has been a Buffett fan for a very long time and has always had a Buffett influence in him. The song he does titled "Back Where I Come From" was even written by Mac Mcanally.
