how hard can it be to order tickets from Ticketmaster?

sure, the fees suck, but it’s usually pretty easy to order unless it’s a very competitive ticket

Have you not been online today? They did this massive presale sign up for Taylor swift, gave out a bunch of codes, then when those people showed up to buy tickets their entire site crashed for basically the whole day. Then they blamed the fans for showing up at the time they were told.

[~mikey b]

never saw that but I don’t follow Taylor Swift the way some of y’all do.

[skaredshtles]

Taylor Swift?!?

[riser4]

Taylor Swift is a prerequisite for being a middle school girl. And by extension,a parent of said kid. I had to go to a Taylor Swift concert 12 or so years ago. I was hoping for an asteroid strike the whole time.

I had to take Owen to Billy Strings





it wasn’t annoying

Does Ticketmaster use Centurylink to serve their internet traffic?

I honestly hope so. It’s their only viable excuse.

My son only ever wants to listen to his rap playlist… that I personally curated.

You guys need to learn to parent better.

Banana strings.

I’d rather go see Taylor Swift with my kid than Billy Strings a million times over. And seeing swift with a million screaming 12 year olds does sound like hell to me.

[plugboots]

Took mini plug to Taylor Swift about 10 or 11 years ago and actually she’s super talented and it was pretty fun.
That said, you can’t hear Taylor Swift sing you just hear the girls around you who sang every single word of every single song. So when people ask me “what did she sound like in concert”, I say like an 11 year old girl.

I hope so too. They deserve each other.

The silver lining is that one gets serious dad points.

a friend of mine got a pile of tickets for a couple of the shows at Levis Stadium through work and he’s giving me a couple pair to give to Owen

Seriously?

beyond serious here, i'd rather stick a fork in my ear than listen to the combination of jam band music with bluegrass with roots and Hee Haw Deliverance Oh Brother Where Art Though cheesy trope old man west virginee music. How do you even get turned on to this stuff?

Doesn't matter what I like of course but wanted to say you are winning if you get to go to a concert with your young-ish son and you both love the music being played.

You ain't from around these parts, are ya? I was brought up on bluegrass and folk by and around hippies. VT is also very much a part of "North Appalachia". My mom played multiple instruments. The Grateful Dead followed me around for a bunch of years in the 80s. Billy Strings is the real deal. The guy has talent. I like a very wide range of music. Teen pop and "country" pop I do not like.

[~mikey b]

Billy Strings is the shit

[old goat]

Indeed. Kind of presumptuous stage name though.
