Did you see them during the late 2002 tour when they rolled down the alex grey screens and had that giant ball for parabol(a)?  that shit was epic.  It was the first real concert I ever went to.  Nothing has come close to that show.

NI, you must have been going through a scalper or ebay?  Ticketmaster doesn't sell em for that much unless it's a vip seat.  I think they are like up to 60 bucks normally, but they sell out pretty quick.

I will prob be making the drive up to San fran, and the best part is my girl will be in the country.  I go to so many epic concerts/parties without her it'll be nice to finally have her around.

---

i could get a flight out to SF for $250.  plus the $50 ticket would be 300.  plus some gas money would be 50 or so.    i would only miss 8 hours of work too.  i could make that up over the week.  This is something to consider.  I would only need something to do from the time after the show until about 5:00 am.  this is a dream atm.  i am not sure if you were truly serious about a ride.  I guess they have that bart system up there i could use if nothing else.

if they announce a date or two closer to me i will take those up instead.  but SF usually gets a good show from what i've heard and seen.  i think the last time they played there jello biafra came out and they covered holiday in cambodia.  that was cool.  i can post a copy of that if anyone wants it.

If i am able to snag tickets than I am absolutely serious about the ride, from what i've heard tehy are usually gone within seconds of going on sale but I will be waiting by the computer on standby hoping to snag a pair.

and hell yeah i would love to see jello biafra tool doing holiday in cambodia.

tickets on sale saturday.  i think at 10 am.  that's when they usually go off.  i can't remember what time zone though.    I will try to get one GA seat if i can.  I will be able to sell it for more than i buy it for if i can't go.  or would sell it to a growerite for my cost.  rather than ebay.  you shooting for ga or w/e you can get?

oh man, i was refreshing like a mad man.  I will read that page.  Looks interesting after a glance at it.  I run no-script with firefox so it was blocking all sorts of shit.  It was a frantic few moments cause i wasn't really all that prepared as i couldn't find my wallet.  why i placed it by the TV, idk.  but it worked out.  I asked a buddy last night how to score the best tickets on ticketmaster and he did a bit of research and came back talking about creating an army of bots.

i'll buy it from you and sell it on ebay.  Sometimes doing what's right isn't as important as what's profitable.    jk, that's a quote from matt parker and/or trey stone.

I hope they do a show close enough for me to attend. They are definitely in my top 5 all time favorite groups and I've never gotten to see them. It's especially shitty when I have to hear all the time from people that have seen them how epic their shows are with the lights/stage setups and so forth.

---

Oh man, their shows are sooo epic!  You gotta go.    just messin.  but srsly.  lots of neat people you will meet at a tool show.

I'm sure I can probably help you out with that, and I don't mind if in the least if I do end up driving.  There is a slight chance that I will fly but most likely i will sell the 3rd ticket for gas monies and take my moms prius to save gas on the road trip up.

We'll keep in touch, but yeah theres definitely public transport options.  This is from the ticketmaster website.

yeah, they are still adding dates.  They added 3 shows today.  the two denver shows and a show in sacramento on 7/13.  I would bet anyone $50 that they announce an LA show (or two) soon.
