It all started when me and my friends left our homes early and waited in the Publix parking lot munching on breakfast then the doors open. We walk in and relize there's going to be a raffle at 9:30 (to be "fair" said the assistante manager) A damn raffle! You could wait there for 3 hours (like we did) and pull out a high ass number and not get tickets. The wait was terrible, then, it was near. We got in line and the bucket was brought around, little pink slips of paper inside. (we had a lot of extra friends there, say, if they picked a better number than us, we gave them our money so they could buy tickets, a pure genious plan off my part that REALLY paid off) My friend draws, picks 32! My bro draws, get's 26, I draw. . . and pull out 3!!! I was jumping around like a little girl and yelling and laughing. Then we find out this Publix was only selling 45 tickets, so alot of people left pissed off. Everything worked out, ALL 8 of my friends (thanks to my idea) got lawn seats, and were all going. DAMN WHAT A GOOD DAY!

There were alot of cool colledge chicks that we spread the idea too, since they were only buying like 2, 3 tickets (the limit being 6) They agreed, and when they found out we were only sophmores, the reply, "aaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, how cute"

Another funny note, when the guys said they only had 45 tickets, and there were probably a whole lot more in Athens, five people got out of line and hauled ass to there cars, screaming out of the parking lot.

Hope you have a good time HTG. Depending on the weather, I suggest you bring a rain poncho or something. It really sucks standing in the rain at a show. Been there and done that. A little light rain is ok, it cools you off if it's hot.
Hey Silky, I did pretty good with warehouse so far. I'm happy with 5 out of the 6 shows. That's not bad at all!

We did allright... nothing great but about as good as we've ever gotten in seats right down the middle. At least for once we aren't off to the side!

Hell, once I got my tickets, I left the place. Too many people were left empty handed, and began to start asking people what price they had to pay them to get tickets.

In the voice of the late great Gilda Radner...
"nevermind!"
Geez, a nurse friend finally called me back and said she could go. She's crazier than I am! I'm happy again!

I just rememberd what two of my friends said to each other while we waited in line for tickets.
First Friend: Would you give up your ticket for a one night stand with a Victoria Secret model of your choice?
Second Friend: Hell no! This is Dave were talking about. This is a once a year thing, shit, I can have sex whenever I want.
First Friend: Sure. . . . . . .
Sorry, that was pretty funny at the time to me and the college girls we chatted with.
