AHHHHHHH HELP I'M HAVING A MAJOR DILEMMA.

Okay. Me and my friends planned a road trip for spring break, starting on the 22 of march. However, being stupid, I didn't check my planner and I didn't realize DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE is playing here that night. So I reaaalllly don't want to go on spring break. Is it bad that I'd rather stay here just to see a band which I've already seen live once? Eh. My friends are going to be pissed at me but I don't really care. It's death cab for cutie! Rawsr.
Uh, what's with this "+/-" band that is supposedly touring with death cab for cutie?
don't look now, just keep watching the TV hating what's too see waiting for someone to say something that's right.

I saw the Libertines last night and it was really fun - I don't think I've been to any other concerts with so much crazy dancing in the audience :)

The first support "band" was just a guitar player, a sample machine thingy and a singer who was totally pretentious and spent the time poncing around on the stage. He had lots of things thrown at him and retaliated by going off stage between songs, returning with some bottles of water and throwing them over the front few rows. It didn't help when a third of the way through one of the songs he messed up so badly they had to start again!! It ended with one of the venue's security/roadie guys having to escort him off the stage!! I felt so sorry for the poor guitarist though - he looked like he was about to cry :(
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.

Congratulations new person, it's not really that hard to figure out, you just wander around and add something to the threads whenever you randomly decide to. :mrgreen: Welcome.

I wanted to see Finger Eleven on the Snocore Tour but they're only hitting the US and without a valid driver's license I can't get across the border for any concerts .. even when they're playing 15 minutes away :(

my tickets are in the mail:

Get Up Kids, Thrice and Dashboard Confessional
The edge website says they're playing at Arrow Hall but it's really at The International Centre in Toronto .. no idea but it says the venue is all GA and holds 6000 .. or is that just a different name for Arrow Hall??

If anyone wants the presale password it's: hands
and the presale ends tomorrow at 5pm

Crap, I just realized I can't go to Something Corporate because two of my friends are getting married on that day :freak: man, everytime somethingc corporate comes, I get screwed out of going somehow.
but I'm going to Death Cab for Cutie for sure
and I'm pretty almost 100% sure I'm going to the Get Up Kids.
