This is how I react when a tour I want to see doesn’t come to the west coast. That is hot chocolate in the mug, not coffee, because coffee is stupid. Rage!!!

That picture was my reaction when Mat Kearney actually came to play here in Alaska last week at my university and all the tickets sold out before I could get some for my family. *sad face*
it’s not really something I get ‘steamed’ over, but i do get frustrated sometimes as artists rarely tour Australia, and when they do, sometimes they don’t tour Sydney…
Ah well, at least I can say I’ve been to see Casting Crowns, MercyMe, Michael W Smith, Newsboys, Hawk Nelson, Superchick, Delirious?, Hillsong, and Passion in concert in Aus (nto all on the same night, lol!)
I listen to rock and metal bands mostly, and when they tour, they tour with other bands. Bands that I don’t want to see. Like at Winter Jam where I wanted to see Red, but there were no other bands that I liked.
You know what gets ME steamed? When almost every single artist that is worth seeing live skips Iowa and South Dakota completely! :\
I guess you will have to become a promoter and start booking them!
Ha, true story. Course, Lifelight is only an hour away from my school…so I shouldn’t complain too much.
I feel your pain most artists skip South Carolina but hit all the states around us!

shoot, you I could have at least attempted to get you a press pass or something. you gotta let me know these things!
Didn’t even realized we had “that” kind of power heh, I’ll remember that next time!
I can pull strings from time to time…I don’t have a lot of power, but I try to let as much go to my head as possible. jk

I feel your pain! Too often there will be fests with 80 percent CCM bands and 20 percent stuff I want to see…not worth my time!
