I just saw that tickets are on sale for Coldplay's '06 tour. :headshake

 

I'm not saying I'm awesome because I saw Coldplay back in '00. I'm just saying that it's not even worth the wait, ticket price, bad seats to go see a band in a huge venue. They're playing the Wachovia Center in Philly where the sixers play and Continental Airlines Center in NJ, which offers cheap seats at the wachovia center to see the concert

 

I've heard U2 is great, but other than that I can't imagine going to see a band with an audience over 1k people, and I'd draw the line at 500.

 

:cheers The Trocodero in Philly :notworthy

It really depends on the band and how they handle it, I mean there's no doubt that small shows can totally rock, but big arena shows, if done right, can be a great time too.

I've seen great shows.

 

The Reverend Horton Heat rocks it in front of 2000. I saw G Love and Special Sauce get 2500 people to sing three part harmony.

 

And honestly, could you ever conceive of actually seeing Judas Priest in an intimate setting? Probably not unless the whole room was covered in leather.

 

I'm kinda pissed because I have to go to my company's Christmas party. Attendance is required. While I'm there, I miss seeing the Reverend again, playing with Supersuckers at the Asbury Lanes bowling alley in Asbury Park.
