Tickets went on sale for my show on Saturday. CAN'T FUCKING WAIT >: O
When they finally announced this show I was rather peeved. We already had tickets to the show in Dallas. But I would've certainly preferred hitting up S.A.
Thinking if I should go for the Diamond VIP package or not :-?
Funny thing about this. A few of us were gonna do that last year. Decided not to pull the trigger. After the show...us, the band and their crew ended up in the same bar anyways hanging after the show. Good times.
