    For those who may like bluegrass/country:

    Apparently he's been working on this for years. I'd heard rumors of it for quite awhile, but never thought it would actually come to fruition.  Not my favorite genre of music, but will check it our when released.

    I never really listened to bluegrass, but because its Tommy Shaw, I'll check it out. I listened to snippets of songs on his facebook and it sounded interesting.

    this sounds fantastic!

    Not enough westerns are made anymore.

    A Hughie Thomason fan! I like it!

    And you're a New Yorker to boot! Jeez, thought only us rednecks here in the south knew about the Outlawa, one of the greatest guitar bands of all time!

  4. Saw TRON today.

     

    Some Thoughts;

     

    1. Story was about as uninteresting and undeveloped as anything I've ever seen.

     

    2. Characters equally uninteresting. I only STARTED to care about them in the last 20 minutes.

     

    3. Special Effects and choreography were fairly good to superior but only in very small doses.

     

    4. The chick has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen.

     

    I would not recommend anyone spend $60 for 4 people to see this movie, which is what we paid for IMAX 3D.

     

    Sorry, just plain borring

    All this complaining about concert ticket prices seems really silly to me.

    The complaining isnt silly. This IS a forum right? biggrin.gif

     

    Look, a lot of people can't afford the luxury right now and it upsets them because they love the band and want to go. I understand the pain. 3 years ago I easily plunked down $600 for thrid row seats from scalpers cause I could afford it. I don;t have the money now, and it bums me out.

    Get some of the $65 tickets and enjoy the show.

    excellent point. Each of these shows has seats available for lower prices.

     

    On the last leg I somehow missed the presale date (and $140 seats) and bought seats further back for $40 ea and had a great time.

     

    The good news for the OP is if he's going solo he can prolly get a good seat on regular sale date for $60 or so.

    Rolling Stones - Floor seats = $ 500
    Eric Clapton -Floor seats = $ 350
    Really can't complain, can ya ?

    Dude, I saw Clapton this summer for $85 and I was on the floor.

     

    Maybe my title of the thread couldve been better, becuase I really don;t liken them to scalpers. I should have just said 'Holy Crap, the dollar isnt worth crap anymore."

     

     

  8. I know RUSH agrees to the pricing, and I don't begrudge them earning a profit. I'm betting they could keep em lower and bet they'd have more sell outs with more affordable tix.

     

    I'm really just amazed at the prices and am saddened for people who can't swing it in this economy. I might be one of them this time around.

  9. yeah, forget trying the management company. They are unbending. Despite my incredibly touching sob story they said "uh...no"

     

    They claimed to me only contest winners are permitted, which is BS because there are members on this forum that have had multiple M&G's through contacts and I know a few other people who have gotten in through a multitude of ways. Some as simple as standing around outside a few hours before the show.

    i'm passing this one up again. maybe it's a combination of not being gung ho about the setlist and me getting a little older. wacko.gif

    You're crazy bro'. It was a great show and well worth it. Best show from them in a long time. What exactly are you waiting for? The perfect setlist?

  11. Personally I'm sick of movies that just overdose on profanity. Im know prude and will utter these words myself daily, but criminy, its just ridiculous to say it over and over and over.

     

    Also, I hate when a movie will throw it in once just so it can get a PG 13 rating instead of PG. Bruce Almighty comes to mind. Great flick, good for the kids to watch until Bruce screams out FU. Why was that necessary? confused13.gif

    I liked it, it was a bit rushed, but a I would say it was an improvement over Half Blood Prince.

    Really? See, I thought this was the first one since maybe the 2nd movie that WASN'T rushed, and that's because they did what they should have been doing since book 4 - make them into two movies. The movies for Goblet, Phoenix and Half-Blood Prince were way too rushed and way too much was cut. This was the first one in a long time where I felt like they got it right.

     

    EXCELLENT movie. Can't wait for part two! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

    So not in love with this series. GOOD and entertaining films, but hardly great. Doesn't hold a candle to Lord Of THe Rings I'm afraid.

    I cant think of any movie/series that holds a candle to LOTR. It is the pinnacle of film making yes.gif

    Check out these kids fighting over an xbox game. I can only assume one of their names is 'Niggah'.

    Kids fight over Call of Duty World at War

    Crap like this makes me shake my head and wonder what the hell this world is coming to. What kind of parents raise kids like this.

     

    f**k you brotha, brotha, brotha. Ima stick you. brotha brotha brotha.

     

    I don't find this funny at all. Sad is more like it sad.gif
