Just throwing this out there — heard a rumor that The Dead are playing a free show at Battery Park at 5PM on Monday March 30. As you were…

Apparently this blog belongs to Ben “Junta” Hunter, Phish’s first manager.
Trey plays the intros or guitar solos to a bunch of different Phish songs before launching into Bowie. Oh, you have to download the video from a link at the bottom.

Disappointed I won’t be there. I go back and forth by the minute trying to pretend like it would be worth the cost (tickets, transportation, lodging, etc)…

God I love Twitter and its potential uses for...
@BenKweller (awesome, seeing him tonight for like the 5th time) tweets that he’s staying at a DoubleTree hotel outside of Boston.
And @doubletreehtls responds to him, thanking him for his stay.
Victory!
Not that this solves anything, but at least someone at TicketMaster understands just how damn shady this looks.
“Specifically, we will not present an option to go to TicketsNow from Ticketmaster without the consent of the artist and the venue.”

Back when I was 2 or 3 years old and living in Somerville, I pulled a brewing pot of coffee down off the table and right onto my stomach. Our next door neighbor at the time, Michael Capuano (yes, this one), drove my father and me to the hospital.
The Boss is pissed →
This won’t change anything (remember Pearl Jam? in the mid-90’s?) but at least someone is saying something.
Maybe I've missed the point? →
Didn’t LiveNation create a ticketing system to compete with TicketMaster? Was this weekend’s Phish-ticket-traffic fiasco enough to make them throw in the towel already? Yikes.

My mind’s been on it the last few days. Here are my favorites:
Big Wong King - NYC
Grand Sichuan - NYC (get the hot pot)
Little Pepper - Flushing
Spicy & Tasty - Flushing
Got anything a bit more under the radar? And I know I’m not being original here, but why should LA tacos get all the love?
Szechuan Gourmet — Manhattan (blows GS out of the water)

Fuck you for crashing. I kind of wanted those Phish tickets.
I was about to post the same thing…verbatim. Refresh, refresh, refresh!!!!!
looks like I’m holding on to those Alpine, Wisconsin tickets. Shooooooootttttt.
I managed to get them 2 hours in…both nights of Jones Beach and my friend got me a Camden ticket!

I’m posting this from an American SFO — JFK flight. I’m stunned at how well this works.

OK, I get that everyone rants about Ticketmaster. And hopefully competition with LiveNation will get them to clean up their act (I’m not holding my breath). I’ve been using TM long enough to be pretty quick with reloading the page as the event goes onsale, putting in the captchas, blah blah. I’ve also resigned myself to the fact that in NYC you just aren’t going to a)...

“I guess it’s the stereotype of playing it - they are usually fat, sweaty, hairy dorky men who are socially inept who happen to live in their mom’s basement.”
I played D&D for a few years (I must’ve been 12 or 13) before moving on to Magic cards. I was the cool kid for sure.
Cute and smart! →

Although I suppose my favorite part of this whole “story” might be that the Boston.com URL has the words “Breaking News” in it.
