God damnit! I am selling my Good Charlotte and NFG tickets as soon as I get them. Koufax, which is quite possibly my second favorite band, is coming to town that same night, and now I have $66 of shitty tickets on my hands. If you live in the Detroit area and seriously want to buy them off me, let me know, and they're yours.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

Yes, do you want tickets? You can have them. I need to get rid of them. I can't miss Koufax. God knows they'll go on another 6 month world tour and I won't get to see them until 2004 if I miss this show.

I don't care. You'd be surprised. Anyways, Koufax is trancendentally better than any band on that tour. I love Koufax and their goofy music. Ahhhh

Were you at the concert last night? If so, how was it? I feel like a tool for missing it.

I know! I am looking for one to put on my new Ibanez bass. Ahhh I think it would look good between my Radiohead and OLP stickers.

I totally agree with Ray 2. Also, good work at working Prodigy and the Beatles into the same sentence! Although I am a fan of both bands, I don't think I could have done it :lol:
