In the spirit of this thread, I thought I'd share something Pea turned me on to recently. www.songkick.com/homeFor those of you with iPhones (and I would assume Android devices as well) there is of course an app for that called songkick. It analyzes your music library and informs you about upcoming shows in cities near you. I've found it to be very useful... and god damn dangerous for the wallet.

Such an amazing app! Might be my favorite one at the moment. You can use the website without using the app as well I think.

Men Without Hats for $10. WHO'S DOWN? You know, that dance isn't as safe as everyone said it was.

So as many of you who follow deadmau5 on either facebook or twitter may know, the mau5 is very involved with his fans. Earlier today, he posted that he had hidden 2 "Ghost Passes" under the feet of a statue right outside of the venue he's playing at for the next 2 nights. I happened to be about 3 blocks from there so I drove over and of course the passes were gone. I went back about my business and he then posts that the finder of the passes couldn't use them so he was going to "Plan B". I went back down there, not because I needed the tickets, but because I figured it would be cool to see him and maybe snap a pic. So I do see him, walking around behind a fence but back towards the statue mentioned earlier, so I walk over that way. Once he's in view again I say hello from about 30 feet away. I figured that was it. He than calls to me, and waves me over to him. When I get there he asks if I'm going to the show tonight and I respond no but that I am coming tomorrow night. He then produces the "Ghost Passes" and asks me to go and hide them under the same statue again, because if he does it obviously everyone will know. He asks me not to be a dick and run away with them and I oblige. "I know these are backstage passes, so why bother? Can I get a pic?" He says that sounds like a fine trade-off. Pretty exciting day, and a unique story to say the least. Anyhow, the kid that found the passes after I hid them gets to wear the Ghost outfit onstage tonight. You're welcome you little shit!

I love his hat. And the bad ass neck tattoo. Also, that is a sweet story. I'm jealous.

Efrain probably met him and promptly used his BJJ skills to grapple him into submission while his "children" stole the tickets and sold them on stubhub for above face value.

On another note, mau5 definitely looks nearly identical to one of the regulars at my job.

Dude, Joel is the little shit for not just letting you have the damn passes. He made you re-hide them so some other schmuck could come right along behind you and pick them up? That is some cold shit.

How's his cat doing? I assume he brought him up at least five times.

I will not have to worry about running into Euclid at the show since he wipes his ass with Deadmau5. Or does that mean he likes him? Wait. Fuck. It means he has never seen him.

I'm going tomorrow and the passes are for tonight, so yaaaa I was actually fine with it. Had I said I didn't have tickets at all it may have been a different story. He didn't mention the cat. lol

I guess I just figured you'd wanna do two nights. If you're cool with it, then that's cool.

As cool as it would be to see him 2 nights straight, it would be kind of a dick move to go tonight and than be like "thanks pea for buying all dem tickets so we could all experience this together... buuuttt been der done dat".
