I've never heard Bella Morte's music.

NIN is probably sold out by now.

OOh, Ministry. I love B.B King's. They seem to book a lot of industrial bands (I saw Pigface there).

I got a NIN ticket! They went on sale Saturday morning. GA. Woo hoo!

Except, how the hell do I get to Atlantic City? Eh, whatever, I'll figure it out.

Bella Morte is awesome. Check out myspace.com/bellamorte

Like, mostly amusing goth/metal/punk. Some really nice songs, though. Their lead singer is gorgeous, too.

I have never seen or heard Pigface. (I've heard of them. Constantly.) I suck at being an industrial fan. I've never been to BB King's, either (I missed KMFDM there because I was in London). I need to refresh my (vague and fuzzy) memory of Ministry before that show.

You got a damn ticket?! What kind of magical computer connection do you have? I like that you buy first, figure out transportation later. :P

Bella Morte- I'm listening to some songs. At first, I'm bopping along, but then I'm all meh. I'm just not hep to their jive. Though an unplugged show sounds kinda neat. I don't know. :/ I'm sorry I'm so wishy washy. If I could be like the nerds in Weird Science, I would make you some concert going buddies.

I only own one Pigface album. They put on a good show, comprised of members of other bands.

I'm not really that into the uber-industrial; I like the basics.

Ah, you know what's funny? I was randomly reading some old emails and discovered that I DID see Pigface, in 2001 at the Limelight with Godhead opening. I have no memory of this whatsoever. Funny. (Except dizenchanted remembers it, because she was telling me recently that we were there and that Pigface had two drummers, but I thought she mis-remembered me being there

Bella Morte- I listened to the songs snippets they have posted on myspace. Now don't be telling me the singer is hot. I will not be swayed, dammit!

Was shelling out all that hard earned dough worth it for the super Spiral specials?

I went to the best shows when I was unemployed/in school/over-tired/po'.

I thought I went to a lot of shows, but you are the winner. If only I drove and had a credit card. :/

Was shelling out all that hard earned dough worth it for the super Spiral specials?

I think so, because you get the tickets cheaper than if you went through ticketmaster, and MUCH cheaper than if you went through a scalper, and you get in early and get to see soundchecks. So if you go to enough shows, the cost actually balances out.

I don't drive (I've taken public transportation to the most INSANE places...). But the credit card sure comes in handy!

[aea]

Oooo! I didn't know the tickets were cheaper through the Spiral. When I finally get my credit card, I might have to look into that.

I hear you about public transportation. I'm glad I never went to shows alone because I would probably still be wandering in the woods of Jersey or Long Island now.
