OSB hammering this morning.

I think they just need a little action in the sheets. Too much misplaced frustration getting taken out on the internet.

If I don't pre-buy tickets, I'll typically wait until the day of the event and see if I can get them cheaper as people that can't go unload them.

Not into self-sabotage. It's just funny to see the poll post and thread already have one star from the h8rs!

For some reason the stars dropped from three to two.

Onlytime I pay full price is if I think the initial price is reasonable/low. Otherwise my workplace offers tickets cheap or I use stubhub. Almost every Huskers game is $60 and I don't think I've paid over $20 for a ticket over the last 7 years. Michigan was $7 on stubhub.

The Oasis debacle was pretty crazy. Would have loved going to that (and was planning to) but not for 3X what the tickets should have been. Have heard rumors they're doing a North American tour next summer as well so I'll hold off for that.

Watched the brothers get into a fight onstage in '96. Not sure they'll stay cohesive and make it to a summer '25 tour of the US.

Omg I'm old.
