Bought mine this morning. I can't wait! Tickets were only $55 here but the service fees brought a pair up to nearly $150. This is an outdoor show with $35 and $45 (plus more service fees) upgrade options, neither of which I went for.

Got 4 amazing box seats, front row of balcony. Total only came to $464 Beyond stoked for this show (4+ months from now)

Damn. Big baller. Ever seen him live?

I have a few times, which is why I'm confident this show will be worth $116/ticket. Taking my dad & wife who have never seen him. My wallet fucking hurts.

Which show are you going to?

Portland, which seemed like it had higher ticket prices overall than most of the shows elsewhere

The Houston show is at a pretty small and new venue, which I guess explains the lower price even though I'd think less seats would equal higher prices. I hope his show translates well outdoors.

I scored GA tix to the Candlebox 25 year anniversary / original lineup show in Seattle this summer. I am super pumped about this. Candlebox is still in my regular rotation. Kevin Martin is the only original member still in the band, so whenever they tour I’m like “meh” but this reunion thing is awesome.

Would love to come back for a show with you but can't justify the coin after this current holiday.

You free for a beer on Wednesday?

Maybe. It'd have to be mid afternoon but I'm not sure yet. Are you going to be in the CBD area?

Never heard a single note from them. Is Krusen there?

No. Krusen is not an original member nor is he currently in the touring lineup. I don’t know the dates of his stint with Candlebox off the top of my head.

I think he played with them in Chile a few years ago. Then he came with the foos to Argentina and played Beast Of Burden with them.

Not sure. We were in the CBD last weekend, near Darling Harbour, but this time I think we are elsewhere. I'll check and see where in a sec.

Zetland? Is that a place?

Fucking hell.

What?

That was a warehouse area when I grew up. It's now all redeveloped. I guess it's not not terribly out of town.

Heh. The missus organised the return accom. Apparently it's reasonably priced, has a washing machine, and is near a shopping center. The holy trinity.

Is that by Moore Park?

Hey hey Mr Google maps.

I'm getting flashbacks of a warehouse party from over 20 years ago.
