I said that to my friend also. What sucks though is I can only get 1 show for USA (2 tickets) and 1 show for Eurpoe(4tickets)

I am hopeing to get GA tickets.. I can;t go on line till noon. NO way could I afford the other prices. I think they are 50 for GA, 85 for second level and 160 for lowers. Sort of like Last Time.. Good thing is May and June is alone way off.

they are suppose to do more dates.. probaly in Sept.. so hopefully then they will play Toronto.. I can;t believe they are playing Vancover and nowhere else though..

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

I was jumping around in excitement that they were coming to Vancouver... but then I realized that VanCity's the only Canadian date. :uh:

I wanted to take advantage of the pre-sale for Vancouver's show tomorrow, but that one Seattle and one other place aren't included in tomorrow's presale. :cry:


GAIL, when you say GA, that usually stands for General Admission, so what I'm wondering is where will the GA tickets get you seats for? If they're only 50 bucks, it makes me wonder why those are the cheapest and Floor, or lower level is so much...

I considered Chicago since they're playing two nights, it was either Denver, Vancouver or Chicago.

Yeah but Denver the Last dinosaur was one of the greatest cartoons ever made.

The theme song: "Denver the last dinosaur! He's my friend and a whole lot more! Denver the last dinosaur, he doesn't do cocaine or heroin, because he's a dinosaur and doesn't know howwwwww"


well the lyrics were accurate up to the word MORE

Denver the Last Dinosaur Theme
1, 2, 3, 4

Denver the last Dinosaur
He's my friend and a whole lot more
Denver the last Dinosaur
Shows me a world I never saw before

Everywhere we go, we don't really care
If people stop and stare at our pal Dino
From pre-history to the rock-n-roll spotlight
We found a friend who helps us make it through alright

That's
Denver the last Dinosaur
He's my friend and a whole lot more
Denver the last Dinosaur
Shows me a world I never saw before

Oh man, I am so upset with this schedule.

They are starting on my side of the continent, but they're all right during finals. Then as soon as I can go, it's off to the east coast. I think there is about an 80% chance I won't be seeing unless they decide to come back to America after their European leg.
