What To Do??
This afternoon i received two tickets for Roger Waters The Wall at the O2, great seats, B2 Row A 24 and 25!
Problem is, recent events dictate that i shall,
a] Sell one ticket and go on my own, sitting next to some one that should be some one else. Can't imagine that atm.
b] Take a friend who knows the score. Problem is, most of 'my' friends that remain where/are also 'her' friends.
And none of my single mates are really into Floyd.
c] Sell both tickets for a good mark up and miss out on some thing i want to see!
I would really like to see the gig, i've loved Floyd and related for many years. I was just going to sell them, but i listened to The Wall whilst my emotions where, lets say, pretty raw, and it was spot on. Which got me to thinking, i really want to see Waters do it.
So, what to do??

I'll come
The Wife hates with a passion anything "Floyd" so i never even botherd trying to get tickets.
So if you need a buddy with a hand full of fivers to reinburse you for the price of the ticket - i'm your man

Go kerb crawling, pick up a pro offer her a few £'s and take her out for the evening. After the gig only pay her half, she'll learn the pros and cons of hitchiking.

I'd end up getting busted in the red light area, miss the gig altogether and be out of pocket, or her fekkin pimp would jump me and i'd have no car no money and no tickets.
Think i'll stick that one on the back burner Dunk.

I'd go on my own no problem and sell the other ticket on ebay for a good mark up. When Waters is on playing you wont exactly be chatting away with whoever is sat next to you will you.

If you don't go, you deserve to be banned from SNet. The Wall live would be 100% awesome.
Go on your own (or Brun) but do go. I quite often go to the cinema on my own. The nipper is too young for most of the films I want to watch and the wife tends to fall asleep so unless she pays she's stayin home. Plus, you often find when you do go couples say f'all to each other the whole time they are there so may as well be alone.

Auction is finished and i still have the tickets.
"I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
Time to die..."

been to see roger waters twice over the last couple of years, amused to death and the wall. the wall is not to be missed, especially with those seats! go, enjoy, and if you get the chance to sell a ticket outside then do so for top dollar and get whacked out your skull for the rest of the night.
