😁

Give me the details, please! A tunnel? 😁

wiredfalcon2 said:I found a number on an events page where some helpful guy told me I could just pick up my ticket at any AAA office.
So, I set aside $217 and gave it to some random jerk 😁 to go buy it for me.
Never saw those tickets again.
But hey, I ended up seeing something else instead.
😁

Okay, so it's Urban Travel.
Does anyone know if you can actually go into a AAA (or anywhere else in Chicago) and buy just the ticket without the travel package attached?

beats me.

🙂

I have absolutely no intention of sitting through a concert... 😢

hm, maybe just give them a call and ask?
might be some standing room left, but I mean the spots they have available for city commuting, not whatever leftovers they're still holding onto back in Chicago.

I’ve got two tickets up for grabs for the floor seats if anyone is looking to score
They're going for $35 a piece

Count me and Susan Clark10 in! 😁 😎 😍

so I pulled $217 and handed it over to some random person 😁 to handle the purchase.

Total double-talker.🙂

wiredfalcon2 said:Hmm, why not just give them a call and ask?
Maybe there are some standing room tickets left—not necessarily what they have listed online for city tours, but maybe some leftovers from the main venue.

I already tried calling, but Eventbrite isn't selling individual tickets at all; they only offer the full VIP package. I just need a single ticket since my ride is already sorted...

nimbleseal22 said:I've got two floor tickets up for grabs if anyone's interested.
They're $35 each.

I only need one ticket... though, honestly, how much is $35 even worth these days? 🤔

Ugh... this damn forum, it never seems to work right when I actually need it 😠

nimbleseal22, I really hope you haven't sold those tickets yet 🙂

Good luck today 😢

That’s a bummer... had my exam today... wiredfalcon2, let me know how things look once you're settled in!

So... I am absolutely wiped. It’s going to take me at least three days to thaw out after that brutal windstorm in Chicago, but honestly? After last night, I think I have to add Franz Ferdinand to my top ten concerts—not just of the year, but of my entire life. They’ve officially gained their biggest fan yet. 😍

If anyone can walk me through how to upload videos online, let me know. I’m dying to post a few clips from the show..

Susan Clark10 said:Seeing Franz Ferdinand was easily one of the top 10 concerts I've ever attended in my life...

Well, they certainly are. 😬--honestly, just incredible...

They’re gorgeous.
Climbing all over the drums.
😁

Just rolled out of bed.
I'll get into the weeds later.

The crowd in Chicago was pretty weak, honestly.
Total letdown.

But man, it was killer.
Gonna go again.

Played every single thing I wanted to hear.

Hey wiredfalcon2, which one of those folks on the bus are you? 🙂

driver 😁

Susan Clark10 said:hey wiredfalcon2, which one of those people on the bus were you? 🙂

The guy who was lagging behind when everyone was heading toward the arena. 😁
With the little beard and all that.

Looking young for once. 🙂
I was sitting over there with that friend of mine, right in the middle of the upper deck on the right side.

What about you?

banderas said:The driver 😁

man, I wish.

wiredfalcon2 said:the one who was lagging behind while heading toward the hall. 😁
all that beard stuff and whatever.

young-looking 🙂
I was sitting there with that female friend of mine, right in the middle of the upper floor on the right side.

You?

Sitting????
Give me a break!

Every single time my crew and I managed to scrape together enough cash to head out to NYC for concerts, we’d always wonder how on earth we ended up right in the front row. So thanks to you and the rest of those seated types.
