So about 2 weeks ago I was looking on Ticketmaster for shows that were coming to Lethbridge and area, and I noticed that Billy Talents was coming. First off, I was impressed that they even included Lethbridge on their Canadian tour and didn't just skip it and go straight to Calgary, and I was even more impressed when I saw who was with them! Rise Against, Anti-Flag and Moneen! Now, I have seen all of these bands before (With the exception of Moneen) but it was at Warped Tour. From what I have heard, you cannot compare a Warped show to a show on a tour. None the less, at Warped Tour Billy Talent and Anti-Flag rocked the crowd and put on awesome shows! And when I saw Rise Against, I didn't know any of their songs, I was tired and wanted to go home...so I did not enjoy them at the time.
So I was going to purchase tickets as soon as I saw they were on ticketmaster...but they didn't go on sale until October 14th, but I was in Calgary on the 14th, and neglected to buy them while I was there. I then tried to get some when I got home...but they were sold out by that time... :@. I was pissed...but could not do anything about it...Until today!
While sitting through a lecture on how to write a proper technical memo...Jordan found out that the City of Lethbridge and been allotted a certain amount of tickets. Now, he was in the same boat I was and did not have tickets, but wanted to see the show. So he whipped out his Mastercard, laid down $100 bucks and got 2 tickets! I through 50 bucks at him, and now we are on our way to Billy Talent, Anti-Flag, Rise Against and Moneen on January 23rd!!! I must say it was a good end to a shitty day.
