Is anyone on this list even going to the "San Jose" show?? Doesn't matter, you have to listen to me anyways. :P Well actually, you don't. You could just scroll right past my little post...Fine, you do that. :) Anyways, my roommate calls me this morning from work and says "turn on the radio! They're giving away tons of BFF tickets!" Sure enough they were. And they werent just giving them away, they were really GIVING them AWAY!! Anyone who passes Union Square in San Fran gets a free ticket!! They are giving like thousands away, to just anybody!!!! But I think this is to be expected. Shoreline is Huge and I'm sorry there is NO WAY that Bff could sell even half that place out. So, then I'm wondering what's going on? Why would they move to a venue that was too big for them and then give a ton of tickets away? What does Lauren do? She calls the radio staition. I ask " why are you giving away so many tickets!?" and the dj says, "because we've got so many!" then I ask " Why did they move to another venue! It sucks it sucks it sucks!" ( Uh, I actually said that last part). The dj asks me" Do you really want the truth?" Then she says, "because you cant handle the truth, YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!!!" and then Tom Cruz comes in...well, not really... anywho, of course I say "yeah I'd like the truth." Truth, Djs exact words: Shoreline is using BFF to test the sound and prepare for the Dave Matthews Band, that's why they changed venues and that's why they are trying to get as many people there as possible. This sucks. Maybe not for Ben and the boys, hey they'll get more exposure. But all these people! And they don't even know the music or anything? I mean I'm not just talking about people who heard Brick and now like them. I know some girls at school who are going because they got free tickets, they didn't even know what Brick was! Alright, alright, I'll be okay. I'm going to the LA show the night before, I'll be okay... - -Lauren P.S don't mean to freak out on ya guys. You have to understand, I have one week of class left. That means 6 papers due before next Tuesday and then finals! Ben Folds Five next weekend is my reward, my oasis! Well not my "Oasis". Those Gallagher boys really chap my hide. :) ------------------------------ End of The Rockford Files V1 #105 *********************************
