So some of you saw I just bought a 2017 Toyota Tundra last week. I had driven the same old beater 93 Chevy for 15 years. My wife's sister just called needing a car to drive, so I'm loaning her the Chevy. She is extremely rough on vehicles, and I fear this may be the last time I see the old truck. Sigh.

I'm seeing Anthrax in a couple of days at a local festival. When I say local I don't mean Belgrade-local, I mean like, my hometown local. Never listened to them that much but you don't miss an opportunity to see such a huge band when they're gonna be playing literally 5 minutes away. I'm pretty hyped tbh, never thought this festival would be able to get anyone more interesting than the local hogwash bands I've had the opportunity to see 50+ times :D

While we are talking about big bands playing a show nearby home, Halestorm and Starset is playing the Anaheim House of Blues in October. Pretty close to me. The fact that it is on a Friday makes it a lot better. I can't pass that up, especially since it is still unknown whether or not AB is heading to Anaheim. I will definitely buy tickets this week.

Starset is a great show, Ang. I bet you'll enjoy them.

I heard both albums from them and they had a good sound so I'm bound to like their live show

Here's to hoping for another US run. And some markets they didn't hit like Anaheim and St Louis (at least a headline) Kev.

What gives me hope so far is that AB have yet to hit Spokane, this tour, and they always hit Spokane for obvious reasons so that if they do a show in Spokane, they are bound to go more southwest so I got that going for me.

All right, guys. Pre-sale for that Halestorm/Starset show is today. How do I obtain a pre-sale code? Where should I look?

Well, I got my ticket. Can't say I'm too thrilled with the price. $46.50 total for One seat of ga. The service fee was a 1/3 of the face value. Just f' off live nation.

The service fees are crap, but it'll be worth it, Kev! Both bands put on really fun live shows.

I love if you pay online there's a convenience fee but if you pay in person the inconvenience fee is 2x the convenience fee.

Well, now I'm really confused. My ticket says I'm in Section GA Row GA8 Seat 8.

I thought House of Blues GA is mainly first come first serve?

I've bought GA tickets where there are seat numbers printed before. I think it's just how tickets are printed...I'd say it's first come, first serve and you can ignore the other stuff. All of the GA references on your ticket means it's all general admission.
