    ...and the Huntsman...

    It was actually all right if you can largely overlook Snow White and the Huntsman themselves.

    No.
    Though Zero Dark Thirty is pretty awesome. It has Tony Soprano, Stannis Baratheon and Link from The Matrix in it.

    That could be cool. Tickets go on sale... when? I'm afraid to ask for how much.

    I am a 10Club (their fan club) member. So I actually got an email today that I am eligible for a predrawing.

    Basically what that means is that I can enter my name into a lottery for two tickets in one of three areas. 1) General Admission pit right in front of the stage, 2) Seats just behind that on the field and/or lower bowl in front of the stage, or 3) upper deck. I was allowed to enter any of those drawings, or all of them. If you win any of the drawings, you do not get tickets in the other two, and I was allowed to rank what order my preference was (I ranked them as numbered). Options #1 and #2 were $168 for two tickets. Option #3 was $116 for two tickets. I will find out on 1/30 if I won the right to buy any tickets.

    Otherwise tickets go on sale on Feb 9th. Hopefully I find out on the 30th that I got mine already though.

    The way 10Club stuff works is that they will tell you which catagory of ticket you got, but not exactly where your seats are. You don't find that out until the day of the show when you pick up the tickets at Will Call, and you must have your ID to pick them up. They do that so that the prime tickets are more likely to go to the actual fan club members, and not to scalpers. If they catch any fan club member scalping tickets, they revoke your membership and ban you from presales.


    It also would not shock me if, after this show sells out, they announce a second show the following night. Most times they come to Chicago they end up playing two shows, but often the only announce one show at first.

    Baraka_Guru, you need to step away from this and pour yourself a whiskey, stat. If not whiskey, at least take a tea timeout.

    Humpback whales are fascinating.
    And, I think I'm a little in love with David Attenborough.
    He makes nature so much more awesome.

    The inauguration parade is the best, representation of every state in the USA. My two nephews represented New Jersey, marching in the Jackson Memorial Jaguar High School Band, it gave me chills. :)
