settle down ther. First off I'm doubting all the songs will be released. There's a reason why they don't make it to albums: they aren't very good. Secondly, we don't even know if this was just just an idea Raine had in passiing or if it was something they are strongly supporting as a group. Third, 40$ for an OLP ticket? you got ripped off bud if thats what you paid to see them.

I think we all need to settle down about all these songs that we're probably never going to hear.

Civic Centre tickets cost me $54 all told. I thought it was worth it, but I'm not always going to have that much free money lying around for the next show that's accesible.

Yeah. I'm not complaining about show prices. I'm just saying realistically, show price+EP's would be complainable.

And person (nielson I think?), whether or not he stays true, Raine claimed he wanted to release these somehow. That, and the fact that there's nothing else to talk about, gives me reason to speculate.
I just wanna get out,

so yeah. Some concert tickets here are like $60. I know its expensive but we are the capital city and good bands still don't come here. It does cost a lot. Especially to get all the touring equiptment over on a island like this one. If a concert came here for $40 and they were a big name, I'd concider that pretty reasonable.


I'm trying to change the topic if you haven't noticed since there isn't really a point in discussing the possible ways to release music. :P

Rob, there were 3 singles if you count the radio ones but Mafia was only released as a CD single to the PPU and I don't think Made of Steel or Not Enough were released as a CD's either. If there isn't a CD single then they can't put extra songs on it!

i think it's okay to speculate. it's all we have right now, especially because we're so used to getting our hopes dashed around here, lol. pretty soon this will be another dashed hope. so let your imagination roam free! cuz pretty soon you'll realize how stupid we were tot hink that OLP would release 40 tracks, it just isnt going to happen. i can see a bonus disc, and/or bonus tracks with the singles. thats it though.

I buy from Ticketmaster, and that's the usual price for general admission around here. I remember Edgefest cost me $80.

concerts are fucking expensive.

my tickets to edgefest were almost $100, same with my John Mayer tickets in November. my August John Mayer ticekts were over $120. now, for my justified & stripped tickets... OVER $200 FOR 2 TICKETS

man, i love how expensive these things are
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

hmm i have to calculate that into Euro now.. *calculates*... erm... there was a time the dollar and the euro were at the same level wasn´t it?
I think 200$ is quiet a lot.. isn´t it? Although i once paid 180€ to see Daniel Bedingfield.. but from that the 2 tickets cost me about 40€ and the rest was for the train... :lol: the train to some towns where concerts could possibly take place would cost me at least 20€ extra... + the ticket :freak:
but normally I don´t buy tickets online, but in ticket-shops... that´s much cheaper.

:O I wouldn't admit to paying that much to see Daniel Bedingfield if that were me :P
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.


And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.
