We will all be making that face, Mr Mangum.
Yes, yes I am the luckiest man in the world. You should probably hate me. Because I didn’t pay $5,000 for it on ebay. And because I knew about Jeff Mangum waaaaayyy before he was name dropped on Parks and Recreation. And I don’t have to travel all the way to Jew York, Boston, or Montreal to see him perform.
Nope, I get to see Jeff Mangum perform in Vermont. Jeff Mangum, and not a wonderful coverband such as Neutral Uke Hotel. Jeff Mangum. In a Unitarian Church. In front of probably like 400 people. If that many. He’ll probably sweat all over me, and I’ll swoon all over him in return. All for the price of a very good night of drinking.
Goys….is this how Christmas morning feels? Because if so, I’d like to start celebrating.
I’m gonna call this right now, so that future internet generations can stumble upon my site and drop their heads in silent respect. On August 8th, when Jeff Mangum comes to perform, it will be the hippest day in Vermont’s state history. Never has a musician so revered and awe-inspiring ever stepped foot onto Vermont to perform. Grace Potter doesn’t count for shit.
No one was keeping tabs, but it’s currently Chicky: 5 World: 4963. I’m moving on up in the ratings, baby.
On a somewhat different note, I’m impressed at how hard the people putting together the show tried to make sure assholes couldn’t scalp the shit out of the tickets. Like these assholes who scalped the shit out of their 2 tickets. (Granted, it’s not as bad as the $2,000 or $5,000 tickets. But still.)
NY I love you but everything costs too much
2 tickets per person, ID and credit card needed, and will-call only day-of concert. No over priced bullshit, no ‘capitalism’ rectifying the price for supply and demand of the music industry. People paying a reasonable price to see an inspiring musician. “What a beautiful face, I have found in this place, that is circling all around the sun…”
(Thank you to Mike for informing me of this sale. My life would be void and musically empty without your tip.)
