Is this worth going to? I really hate the Nokia... $7 12 oz. cans of beer, not cool

Wow, I'm so torn on whether or not to go to this.

"Friends of P" was a pretty cool song...but do I want to spend my Thursday night doing this?

Fuck. Someone help me out here.

Posted by Drugs Delaney | August 21, 2007 1:23 PM

why not? It's free. I might go, kick back, have a few beers, enjoy some live music. FYI, you can buy 6 tix for $7... invite the family.

Ugh you have to be kidding me...you mean this show is free ? this sucks. free is too much. Also what else can i complain about? oh yeah i wish instead of the rentals this was for radiohead.

Seeing shit for free is still seeing shit.

Service fees (ticket fast printing is the only way to do it) comes to about $7.50. They also hook you up w/ two free downloads from itunes.

Complaining about the price of beer in NYC is for tourists and homeless people buying High Life.

Get over it.

Posted by Anonymous | August 21, 2007 5:56 PM

honestly. the show will be over by 10 in order to make it back to williamsburg (i liver there too) to drink your 2 for 5 of pbrs. $7 for 6 tix is pretty awesome and you can play tourist and head above 14th st! aka shut the fuck up and enjoy the show.

Posted by greg | August 21, 2007 6:24 PM

hey, i happen to love me some High Life. i'm neither a tourist or homeless (yet)...

Posted by ko | August 21, 2007 7:01 PM

Calling shit out as being "for tourists" is for you upstate trust fund Williamsburg transplant douchebags.

Go home.
