Message:	[quote author=nadinehurley board=other thread=927 post=142242 time=1357955257]"So, I live in Eugene and was planning on driving all the way up to Seattle for a Ben Folds concert on February 4th, 2013. Now there's a concert happening on the 5th in Portland, because Ben thinks it's funny to do these sorts of things to me. So anyway, being a person who does not enjoy driving 6 hours on a Monday, I'd like to offer my 2 general admission tickets to the Seattle Showbox show on February 4. The face value is 39.50 and there's an 11.50 service charge for each, which honestly, I would like to make back. NOT out to make money, just not end up bleeding cash. Tickets are a transferable PDF, so this should be the easiest transaction in the world." Is this sketchy???? I'm totally nervous about the PDF thing, and I guess I would have to send him money via paypall or a check in the mail... I like to think Ben Folds fan are pretty trustworthy and cool. And his explanation for wanting to sell the tickets/offering them for face value seems legit but I dunno.....[/quote] Expand

Yes. I saw them open for Ladytron at Decibel Fest and they were fucking rad.

I have been to the doe bay fest, two years ago...This year it was nearly impossible to get reservations, it is getting quite the reputation, making it tough to get in...

They were quite good! The crowd didn't really get moving until "Destroy Everything You Touch" during the encore, though. And they didn't play "Playgirl."

This work week has been long, frustrating and brutal. Tonight will be the perfect medicine.

Ben Folds Five is playing the Roseland first week of February. T'ain't sold out yet; here's hoping that's still the case at the beginning of next week.

Ahh shit, they're playing Seattle 2/4 and it sold out LITERALLY hours before I made it to the box office, I was sooo sad. I was planning on biting the bullet and craigslisting it but Portland might actually end up being cheaper. Do you know what day of the week?

Posted by XhornedXgrammaX on Jan 11, 2013, 8:31pm

Looks like it's a Tuesday. The Tuesday following the Built to Spill show, as it happens. Take a week off?

Posted by NadineHurley on Jan 11, 2013, 8:32pm

Veeery Tempting! But school will probably fuck me over on this one, yet again. Don't make the same mistake I did, get them tickets quick! It only took about a week to sell out the Showbox which is a pretty big venue.

Posted by XhornedXgrammaX on Jan 11, 2013, 8:33pm

It's been sixteen fucking years since the last time I saw Ben Folds Five. I have extremely fond memories of that shit. Ben's all, like, grandpa librarian now. I feel trepidation. But I still wanna go.

Posted by NadineHurley on Jan 11, 2013, 8:34pm

Grandpa Librarian and Horned Gramma- sounds like a good fit to me.

Posted by Dr. Garbanzoinski on Jan 11, 2013, 8:46pm

Motherfucker. A) I thought the Built To Spill show was 2/1 not 1/31 and B) its fucking sold out cause I'm a dingus and just now tried to buy tix. Holla atcha boy Dr. Garbanzo if you know anybody selling one for face or at least close.
