So, I open up the Mercury to find out that there are two Modest Mouse shows next week that flew completely under my radar until last night. And, of course, they are both completely sold out. (Except for INSANELY priced scalpers' tickets. Fuck off scalpers. Shows are for the fans, not THE RICH.) So every asshole in the region gets to see them next week and they dont even LOVE them like I do. How could this happen? Am I that oblivious?
So I was venting my frustration to a co-worker and he was like, "Oh, well my brother is probably on the list, and I doubt he wants to go so I'll see if he'll sell his tickets to you for face value." And my heart jumped. After a short phone call we found out that his brother is on the LIST, but there are no tickets involved. He has to show up and probably show ID. His brother doesnt even want to go!



Oh, cruel world.
