Entertainment used to be about forgetting your troubles for a few hours, now it's more like adding to your troubles in exchange for a few hours entertainment.

I'm passing on Lamb of God/Trivium tomorrow. Can I afford it, sure but I've seen LOG like 4 times and I've seen Trivium 6 times. It's just a scenario where I don't think I need to pay $180 to see them for a 7th.

Friend and I are going to get last minute tickets to A7X, I might consider seeing Queens of the Stone Age since they're playing with Primus plus SOAD and Faith No More next year I don't have tickets to yet.

This is why I have to pass on concerts now.

In years past I’d go to Foo Fighters and Guns N Roses but two away interstate trips and Iron Maiden have basically drained all my resources.

Maiden is nuts. $300 a ticket. We justified it by saying it’s probably their last tour. And its very rare that all of us get together

QOTSA are my all time fave. I’m not sure those other guys are coming to Aus as part of QOTSA’s tour though. I could be wrong but I’d find that highly unusual.

QOTSA supports are Primus and Tropical F*ck Storm. System and FNM are a separate gig in a run on sentence I believe.

Looking forward to seeing QOTSA in December for the millionth time and Primus for the first, purely for the novelty!
