U2/Idlewild/Ash needs an honourable mention too.
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.

Now all you need is the band to show up. :lol: :lol:

The only date they are doing so far is Feb 25th in Texas.. Galveston( I think that was the city)

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

This is a first for me. No sheduled shows upcoming for me. I am seeing this local artist in afew days. She is a cross between Chantal Kreviazuk, and Sarah Mclaughlan.

I have started seeing local talent instead of big shows lately.. There are so many talented people in NYC..

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

I saw no concerts this year cause the bands I want to see avoid my city...cept for Green Day. Also for that show, I missed the ticket pre-sale so by the time I had a chance to get tickets, all the good ones were gone and I don't fancy nosebleed seatings. PLUS, I go no concert buddies. :( :cry:

I didn't get to see them. All the good tickets were sold so I didn't go. I was going to buy a pair of tickets from a scalper but he decided to raise the price of the tickets. Greedy son of a bitch.

By the way, they were playing in Edmonton.

hey, if I would have read that more carefully I may have realized that you didn't actually purchase the nosebleed seats. Sorry :oops:

I'm spoiled... I don't go to a concert unless I can get great seats. I've never had nosebleed seats in an arena and I'm pretty sure if that was my only option I wouldn't go.
