I went to the Dead show on Saturday at the Tweeter Center. After the 1st set I went looking for some liquid refreshment and was shocked and amazed they expected me to pay 8 bucks for a cup of beer. WTF.....are you kidding me? I am used to getting gauged on refreshments at the movies, but 8 bucks? For a cup of draft beer?:af: :af: :af: :af:

And its not like they are just jacking up prices just to prevent people from getting intoxicated. They wanted $3.50 for a bottle of water. I've thrown away lots of dough on dumb stuff, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna pay 8 bones for a beer. Just another case of the man keepin you down. Bastiges.

I waited till after the show and bought a couple of rolling rock long necks off a cute hippie chick in the lot for a buck a piece. :happy: :happy:

Yup! I posted the same thing after I went to the Clapton show a month ago!:( Can you believe the nerve? They can keep it, I hate draft beer anyway and would certainly never pay $8.00 for a beer draft, can or bottle!!!:af:

By the way....did you buy one?:rolleyes:

I never "got" the whole "Dead" thing.......never really cared for them! Guess its cause' I never got stoned or did drugs......:huh:so most of their lyrics never rang true with me.;)

But, hey....you guys enjoy the long strange trip!:btu:

ya phish is all done, got one more festival in a week or two then theyre breaking up. Im sure that festival is gonna be a zoo to remember. Ive made it to two of their festivals, will never forget them. I saw some of the craziest, crackedout , unbelievable things there.
