Possibly I was late to the boat on this or what. But I would really like to see Foster the People when they are in town for December to Remember. I looked online and tickets are obviously sold out but face value were only $20 or $25. Excuse me if I can’t remember.

My problem is this. All of the idiots and scum bags selling tickets for $75 and up. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Firs off the dealers on there are just plain idiots. Second the people selling tickets that are locals should be fucking ashamed of themselves. Isn’t Portland all about helping your neighbor or some shit like that. Then why the fuck are you trying to triple you’re money? I mean at least start at $60. I just love how they are all saying well its sold out. Yea because you idiots bought all the fucking tickets and are trying to rape us with you’re prices.

If you see them on Craig’s list send a nasty text and tell them to fuck off. Btw. Says right on Craig’s list not to post tickets more than face value…. Oops.

  1. YOU’RE only able to get a fair price for tickets if YOU’RE able to write YOUR Craigslist request in the super-secret Portland code. Otherwise, we delight in inflating the price for YOUR precious tickets, and are gleeful that YOU’RE apt to throw a tantrum over it. If you don’t like the new order, kindly return to YOUR shack or basement to privately lament the passing of the days of YORE.

  2. Portland isn’t all about helping your neighbor or some shit like that. Portland is all about living somewhere cheaper than Seattle or San Francisco.

  3. supply and demand, baby.

    scalping tickets to sold out shows at significantly above face value is nothing new, it’s been going on for years.

  4. Foster Burger IS terrible. I was so excited when I moved in next door, because their burgers and milkshakes taste great. But the service has just been terrible – just needlessly rude, like they were trying to start a drunken bar fight or something. Super weird.

  5. Ticket scalping might actually be the most pro 99% practice in America. Here you have the poor people that are hustling selling to the people that can afford to buy tickets for far more than face value while those that probably shouldn’t be spending their money on such things don’t. If you weren’t aware enough to get tickets early and can’t afford to pay more, you probably should just listen to mediocre music at home.

  6. until the small group of uncoordinated hippies that are a few more buckets of shit from an outbreak of cholera accomplish their goal of overthrowing our economic system, this is still a CAPITALIST country. Ticket scalping being about as purely capitalist as you get.

    Now, if I were you I would mark on your calendar when Rebecca Black is coming to town because you are certainly going to want to be front and center for that one!
