Too Late!! :o :lol:

Boycott Buffett??? Are you kiddin' me? Look around, popular acts are hard to get tickets for. Period. My wife is a Cub fan (I love her anyway). Try to get cubs tickets this year, forget about it! Talk about a screwed up computer system, at least Ticketbastard has enough servers to handle the traffic. And by the way, HELLO, it's a concert! Let go of that negative energy for pete's sake, put on SYKBH, spin up some 'ritas and take a deep breath. :wink:

Before Hubby & I went on vacation, we HAD to order new shirts from Margaritaville. Then we went on vacation to Charleston and stopped at Margaritaville 3 times and bought shirts, hats, boxer shorts, magnets, cups and other stuff to get ready for concert season. So NO, we have no intention to boycott anything Buffett. We got left out of the Alpine tickets on Ticket Monster, but instead of whining, we looked for and found reasonable tickets on E-Bay. Part of the fun is the chase for tickets.

Instead of boycotting call your Attorney General if scalping is against the law in your state and b**** about ebay!!!!!!

Most states like Michigan dont enforce their own laws, theres nothing that can be done to take down legal ticket brokers, but if enough people complain you might be able to put a dent into the part time scalpers on Ebay (which doenst enforce its own stupid policies, easy way around michigan law, just say your tickets were 900 dollars face when you bought them) :roll:

Why would I boycott Jimmy? It's not my fault you didn't get tickets. Besides-I like seeing the toys he buys with my money. :wink:
At any rate I would get tickets some how. I'm pretty sure at 8:10 you can get them pretty cheap from the scalpers, and Buffett usually doesn't hit the stage until 8:15. :pirate:

Come on now, don't be hatin' on SYKBH. I know it's pretty much for the unitiated, but.... We know them all for a reason, they're classics! I was just thinking "comfort zone" kind of vibe 8)
