"Guerilla" Concert-Going
Has anyone done this?
By "guerilla", I mean going to a show just about every night.
This is the week for me. I'm seeing Muse tomorrow, Franz Ferdinand on Wednesday (plus the after-party), and Delays/Hope of the States on Friday!
Then next week, I'm seeing The Bravery on Thursday, and The Libertines on Friday.
After next week, I will have gone to over 30 concerts since January! :o:D
Good thing I have an easy schedule!

This is nuts. you´ll end up deaf! and gee, you must have a lot of cash ....i wouldn´t like to attend more than one show per week (these days i go to
shows like only every 3 months or like that coz no nice bands are playing Munich) ..it just ain´t special and "a night to remember" anymore
if it´s an overflow....

Haha, I agree that I am nuts!
I really don't have a lot of cash at all. I had to work and save up for it. Plus, since I'm getting through school by financial aid and
loans, any money I get (I get it from my dad for child support) for now is spending money (but eventually I will have to pay back the loans). Plus,
none of the shows cost over $25. A few only cost $8. I guess that's where I spend all my money. I don't buy clothes or shoes as often as
most people.
I'm a loon!:P

I go through those phases. Basically, I am signed up to win concert tickets at nearly every radio station in town, plus when you go to some of the
shows, they give you free passes for others. It's a vicious cycle. A vicious cycle of excellentness!

Dyler does this every week!
I cant afford it!
the most hardcore i did was RHCP on the Wednesday, Finch on the Friday then Something Corporate on the Sunday.
Thats not that hardcore though.
Oh, good luck w/ the libertines. When i saw them they were shit. They are no good without Pete

I saw them in New York this August. I didn't think they were shit, though. Just different from what I expected. I've never seen them with
Pete, but you could tell that something was lacking from their performance. I only hope that one day they will play together again. *sigh*

I used to go to shows quite a bit, but I can't afford it anymore..It seems like shows come in waves though..All of a sudden, Beck, Ima Robot,
Bjork, Blur, and the Flaming Lips will tour at the same time and shit..Well, maybe not all of them, but you get my drift..:duh:
Huzzah!!

you don´t like Dirty Ho coz you don´t get her stuff. you think all she´s about is showcasing a hairy bikini zone, eh ? there is MUCH more to her than
that ... she´s not that provoacative.
