Gah!!! I'd pay twice that, easy. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Aug 18, 14:03
Is he opening for Dylan? -- nm - TFox Aug 18, 13:54
the week before scan craigslist for any tickets being offered by individuals (not scamm...I mean scalpers) -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 18, 13:48
banjo? I might. -- nm - loosilu Aug 18, 13:13
I'm sure he's better than Billy Bob, but I'm just not that interested in music in general to pay that much for a performance -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:12 11
- Especially for someone that I would much rather hear telling jokes. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 13:13 10
  - Now, if I read a review of the band's performances and it sounds like it was sort of a song-story combination, then I might consider it -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:14 9
    - They sort of are, but for that kind of money, I could do without the banjo. - Spawn Aug 18, 13:16 7
      - But he's *good* with the banjo. It's just not my kind of music. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:16 6
        
        If it was just him, I would be there. But if there are other musicians, there is a certain level of expectation for music. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 13:18
        
        I love banjo. -- nm - loosilu Aug 18, 13:17 4
        
        me too. (nm) - Callisto Aug 18, 13:21 3
        
        I think Steve Martin said it's impossible to listen to banjo and keep feeling sad. -- nm - loosilu Aug 18, 13:22 2
        
        But what if you're only happy when it rains? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 13:34 1
        
        Or from Deliverance? -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 13:35
    - I've heard recordings of some of his performances and that's what it was. -- nm - loosilu Aug 18, 13:15
A pair of tix: yes. One: no. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 13:09 3
- yeah, each. -- nm - Andie Aug 18, 13:11 2
  - that seems kind of high. - Callisto Aug 18, 13:13 1
    - true, maybe for $60 I'd do it. -- nm - loosilu Aug 18, 13:14
I bought his album but I probably wouldn't pay that much. Though I did pay that much to golf at the beach... -- nm - Max Aug 18, 13:09
