Just a quick note... St. Patty's Day is rapidly approaching and DKM is releasing a special, limited edition of their album "The Meanest of Times" on 3/11. More info here. I've heard a few things about the album, so you should take a good look at the photos in the CD artwork. Haven't seen a proof or anything, but i've heard some stuff.
We are planning to go up to Boston for two of the five sold out shows. Just for amusement sake, i looked up a "ticket broker" online. There are way too many tickets being scalped and the highest price i saw was $425/each. Average was about $200. This is flat out ridiculous. There has to be a way to keep concert tickets out of the scalers hands. Its a total disservice to people who are real fans of the band and live music in general. Its just wrong.

Have to disagree David. It is just supply and demand. If a breed of dog is rare then it cost more than a mutt. The tickets are limited so they are valuable. It does suck for real fans but laws restricting free trade among people is not good.

Shane i understand that, i just feel its wrong.
What's more wrong are the idiots who take people for fake tickets. Here's an FYI for you Georgia fans. Georgia football tickets are NOT sold through Ticketmaster. So if you are one of the thousands who descend on this town to try and buy them, if its a ticketmaster looking ticket, its fake/
Well technically scalping and making a profit over I believe it is 10% is illegal in Massachusetts.So it's not a supply and demand issue really.
But on your side note, if I could get a breed dog at cost value I would not pay a mark up of over 50%. I'd either wait for someone who is being reasonable or get a different breed.
