bumbershoot

Today is the last day to get bumbershoot tickets for $25 bucks per day, so I am contemplating my strategy. I can get them august 4th at starbucks, for $30 each, though there aren't service fees on those, so it's more like a difference of a buck fifty than 5 bucks. I can't believe how miserly I am about some things, yet fully willing to spend, on

After the last two years or more waiting-in-line and less actually getting-to-see-bands time, I think I might be DONE with Bumbershoot.

It's difficult for me to say, as it's been a birthday weekend tradition for many years, but man. I am just not sure it's that fun anymore, especially at that Ticket price.

I am more compelled to go see the NW festival in Portland the following weekend. That's $40 for all bands, all 4 days. And! Rilo Kiley.

last year I went to only outdoor venues, and I saw everyone I attempted to see. The year or two before that were very frustrating, with too many bands I liked put in too small of venues. On the other hand, I got a few free passes from IKEA, so that did make me feel better about everything. I'd already bought my own tickets, and mostly gave them (or sold them cheaply) to friends.
