Thomas³ Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I'm sure a lot of the workers at the stations are involved a lot too. They are paid crap for a crappy job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to juice carrots, lemon, ginger, and celery and then blend it up with spinach and kale. The lemon and ginger really help mask the bitterness of the kale. Thank you!

Thomas³ Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Nice, someone went around and shot out a bunch of car windows in my neighborhood last night. The street mine runs into was one of them, so thankfully my car was not one of them. That'd have been fun to deal with on top of the card issues.

Bladewillisisdead Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Yeah, my girlfriend's card got skimmed at a gas station a couple weeks ago. Luckily caught it while the transactions were still pending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad Heart Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) Regular VIP tickets are $350. What a joke. Seated tickets are $130+. Hahahhahaa. Seeing rap in a stadium would be such a joke. Edited June 14, 2016 by Dave Grohl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drake/Future tickets were $180 for mediocre assigned seating. Our new arena which is supposed to be the nicest arena in the world gets us all the huge tours now, but ticket prices are 2x what they used to be.

Bladewillisisdead Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Also, I think they charge so much because their shows are more production than anything. Big set pieces, light shows, etc. and a large crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Childish Gambino is more hip hop though, and hip hop acts usually have a backing band with them, at least from my experience. I've seen Childish Gambino live, and he had a fill band, and the damn show was free. From what I've seen rap usually has a backing track or a DJ at most ie laptop. So I don't see the point of seeing it live, and paying those prices. It's just insane. If it was like $20-40 sure, but $100? $200? fucking hell. Why.

Plus the acts are hugely popular in the mainstream so a shit load of people are willing to pay. It's more a stage show than a concert I guess.

I cut out my addiction to Arizona green tea, and am 22 days of no soda/caffeine. Water is still boring to me, so I purchased a infuser pitcher and a Magic Bullet blender... Would like some good suggestions for the infuser to up my water intake and for some delicious (and healthier) smoothies. 1 hour ago, Bladewillisisdead said: My go to infused water ingredients: lemon, lime, cilantro, basil, ginger, cucumber and celery.

Another factor is the Canadian dollar is horrible right now, so a $120 ticket quickly turns into a $180 ticket. Also those drake tickets were the most expensive I have ever seen for anything.

Mainstream is music for people who don't care / know anything about music. Haha. I guess they're willing to pay $100+ for a ticket when that's probably the only show they'll go to that year. Haha.

Kendrick's last album was so insanely over-produced that it made me lose any interest in him, unfortunately. I'll stick to my Deltron 3030.
