    I'm going to see Supertramp. :)

    The last time I saw them, Roger Hodgson was still with the band. I've seen Roger perform solo many times in the last decade, but haven't seen Supertramp since the early 80's. It should be a fun show and I'm looking forward to it!

    Gabriel is coming here too. I thought about going but the same seats that we got for Supertramp are double the price for Gabriel. He's not worth $200 a seat IMO.

    "I'm going to see Supertramp:)"...really?

    On purpose? Did you lose a bet?!


    I should shut up...my own upcoming plans would not be considered "cool" by the membership at large...http://broadripple411.com/tag/sade-a...polis-concert/

    ...and I hope y'all enjoy the show
    So, I broke into the palace

    She said : "Eh, I know you, and you cannot sing"
    I said : "That's nothing - you should hear me play piano"

    WTF, from your link "This is a return to the big stage for 80′s star as Sade has booked shows all over North America and Canada." Did you guys kick us out of NA without telling us? LOL

    Maybe they meant to say North America and Quebec.

    You get double billing.

    No decent country would pay to see the likes of that washed up band.
    I call my bathroom Jim instead of John so I can tell people that I go to the Jim first thing every morning.

    If you say the word 'gullible' very slowly it sounds just like oranges.

    That's highway robbery. Our Peter Gabriel tickets range from $58 to $85. I wouldn't pay $200 to see him either. Of course I wouldn't pay $100 to see Supertramp either. Sorry.

    Heck, in my mind, there's NO band worth paying $200 to see, unless John and George came back to life.

    When I recall that I paid all of $15 to see the Decemberists on a Saturday night, and they're actually a current/happening band. $100 for Supertramp? Yikes!

    ..and that would make perfect sense. LOL.

    They are playing in Kelowna also, might go see them just for sh!ts and giggles. I had seen them in their heyday and still say they had one of the cleanest live sound reinforcement systems I've heard.

    I love "Put on your old brown shoes" from .....Famous Last Words. Great pop song.

    Yeah, yeah, yeah. And when you were a kid bread was five cents a loaf. We get it.

    Not that I have to justify my actions to you but...I had to think hard about spending that kind of dough to see Supertramp, but we don't go to a lot of concerts anymore so I don't mind spending some hard-earned cash to go to a stadium show every now and then. It's a night's entertainment for us. I pay that much to go to the theatre, so why not a concert if I know I'm going to enjoy the evening.

    I could get cheaper tickets, but I'm past the stage of sitting in the nosebleeds and watching the concert on a screen. I can afford it, so WTF. Ya know?

    But I do have to draw the line at $200 for Peter Gabriel. If he rejoined Genesis and they went out on a Lamb tour then I might consider it. But not for him solo.

    A. I love Broadripple. B. Sade and Legend?! That's some sexual dynamite right there. People gonna be gettin' laid. If you ask a girl out and take her to a Sade/Legend double bill for your first date, she's gonna slap you in the face.
