$265 for Roger Waters???

[Finch Platte]

Just think FA, if you had put 4 cents in a jar everytime you'd posted in this place, you'd have enough to buy a ticket plus a bucket of popcorn!

[bobsticks]

Except for:

I rather like the pomposityof that album...it's a precursor for his solo stuff...clearly that album was the result of a power struggle.....I've checked out the solo stuff and the "re`unified" band stuff...great manuscript for the forthcoming...

At least with Rush you are seeing a trio of fine musicians, despite the tired catalogue. To be in Geddy's presence is worth money IMO.

Waters' moody and "intellectual" music is tiring and boring, as I'm sure his stage show must be. All lights and nonsense that has nothing to do with music, to cover for his pylon-ish-ness.

I guess this makes the Eagles ticket seem like a deal when one considers there are 4 or 5 stars to be seen.

All quite comical.

I will agree with you on this fact, all three member are very talented, I'm a bit of a Peart fan as a drummer myself. But, If Geddy would just stop singing, they might have been one of the greatest bands of all time.

Geddy may not be the best singer of all time, but they seem to have done alright for themselves in spite of that.

yeah, after 4 decades of success and a worldwide fanbase, Rush really should consider replacing their lead singer
(sarcasm)that sounds like a superb idea(/sarcasm)

And $95 for the Chicksie Dicks? No way in heck.

I suppose those nostalgic for the Beatles, and who can blame them, would shell out that much to see Richard, but nearly $100 for those ersatz country hicks? Please.

I don’t argue that. I think they are a great group and I dig watching them, totally fun.

Now the Dixie Chicks, no way in hell would I see their show. You couldn’t pay me $95 to watch them.

Agreed. That sounds like cruel and unusual punishment. I once went to Lillith fair with a group of friends many years ago. The Dixie Chicks were the act we chose to go stand in line for the bathroom during.

And believe me, I've never seen a longer line for the ladies room than at Lillith fair (Eventually the men's room just became coed. None of the men seemed to mind and most of the ladies had no interest, if you catch my drift. )

Wow, braving Lilith fair, I couldn't do it. I have seen a lot of crazy stuff happen at Ozzfest, but I won’t go near Lilith

Well I just bit the bullet and got 2 tickets for the Tacoma,Wa show. I have been a PF/ Waters fan for a long time. I like both the stuff with and w/o RW and I like RW's solo stuff. The pros and cons of hitchhiking just kicks ass, with Clapton and a host of other well knowns playing it is worth a listen.
Looking forward too December for the show!!!
