So, let us backtrack to a month ago. I am on TDWP's myspace, and i see this sweet looking show. The Devil Wears Prada, A Day to Remember, Sky Eats Airplane, Emarosa.
Emarosa is one of my favorite bands right now. Yes, I don't care if they suck with jonny now or whatever you think. I like them now. Sky Eats Airplane is also working its way up into my top bands, and TDWP has always been a good band to me. A Day To Remember I've seen live like 2 other times and have always put on a good show. So I was super stoked on seeing this.
Next day: I walk into work and request off April 7th. I want to see this really sweet show. I get the day off. No sweat.
Next week: I get girlfriend, invite her to show April 7th, she accepts offer, we make plans.
Next day: I ask other friend, Steve, if he wants to go too. Along with another friend, and my cousin, Tesla. She says that she has softball practice then, so Steve says "I don't know" to going a hundred times.
Every time I ask Steve if he wants to go, he responds "I don't know." We get to the weekend before the show, last saturday, and my friend Steve finally says, "Ok I guess I don't want to go."
I went to order the tickets, and my card was having issues so they didn't go through.
The next day, my girlfriend goes to the ticket thing at our local Tops and tries to buy the tickets. They say "it says they aren't available, I think that means they are sold out."
After a quick check at the box office, I do indeed, find out that the tickets are sold out. Not to fear, I can keep trying. So last night I called once an hour until midnight, where they said more tickets are "sometimes released the day of the show." What I found at midnight was a new error, "The show is sold out."
This is when I began posting bulletins on myspace, and leaving my AIM away message to "if you have tickets to the devil wears prada/a day to remember/sky eats airplane/emarosa show tonight.
TEXT ME.
I wanna buy em off you.
for more than face value.
<3 pleaseeee"
This was last night.
This morning I wake up with a similar response, none.
I continued to call the 1-800 number for tickets.com, and they kept feeding me the same story, "We aren't showing any tickets available right now, but the ticket availability is always subject to change. Keep trying back." Every hour, all day, I check to see if any tickets are available yet. Of course, nothing.
After school, I check one final time, and call the box office again. The people at the box office confirmed that no tickets were left available and not them or the promoter was holding any. I then gave up hope on the show. I mean sure I was still bitching about it every chance I got, but I didn't think I was going to be able to go. I just bummed pretty much the entire night.
Fast forward to 10:30, when I got home, I get on AIM. And of course, are messages from Jonny Craig of Emarosa.

So yeah, I get home, read that, and literally say, out loud: FUCK MY LIFE!

Tomorrow night in Cleveland is sold out too, I asked him if there was anything he could do to get me in to see the show and I'm still waiting on a response.
I just fucking hate my life. So fucking much. At least right now.
