8/18/10

Arcade Fire is playing the Key arena on Wednesday, September 29th. Curse you Arcade Fire! Why couldn't you play the Key Arena on Wednesday, October 6th? Then I wouldn't feel torn because I would be busy doing other things. You're playing the week before I get married. I will be TOO BUSY to go see you, and also TicketMaster are jerks. Seriously, $38 is totally worth it for a ticket to see you, but over $12 in fees cranks that up to over fifty which is kind of unreasonable for any band I can think of. I hardly think Cirque du Soleil is worth fifty dollars. Of course, they ACTUALLY charge a hundred, but that's wandering wide of the point.
So I will skip you, you cutting-edge stadium rockers, you. As much as it makes me sad. I will go see Cloud Cult at the ShowBox instead, which is 1) only $20 per ticket (plus spit-take-inducing fees), 2) NOT the week before my wedding and 3) a much more intimate experience than the Key.
