English is my second language,i'm self taught.
My problem with the teacher at school was,that i didn't care about the rules.
All i wanted was to know how to get the point across.
As for the grammar,i never cared for it in my language,much less in English.
I've picked up words and expressions here and there,so i don't know which comes from UK or US.
My posts must be funny sometimes,including both expressions in the same sentence.
Writing in boards like this,i write as if i'd be talking to you.
I tend not to use much smilies.
I've no idea what spell check is.

I expect all these things to create situations where i'm misunderstood.

Easiest way to fix the problem is for you to say:"What are you trying to say?"

I didn't read beyond this page.Seems there are couple of persons upset over spelling errors.
In boards like this,there are all kinds of people.
That is bound to create situations where people get upset with each other.
When that happens,one should keep in mind,it's just a board.
I rather hope my posts would bring a smile to somebody than to make them angry,but if that happens,i don't care.
Don't take it so seriously.

I like this post because I can clearly understand where one thought ends and another begins. That's all I was asking for.

Do you have any idea how much of an ass your making of yourself? Good grief, if you can't have a better attitude, please go away.

I wish I were more deft at getting deals. Glad I'm waiting on the other NY shows to see what's available.

The 5 star people get more than just good seats. The 5 star people get entrance before anyone else, get to pre-show party, and a number of other great things. The price is what it is. I enjoy the thought that I will not have to wait outside a venue with everyone else shivering. VERY excited that we have the chance to hang out before the venue is opened to others. Poor sales come from the high price that people aren't willing/able to pay. Price will never keep me away from enjoying one of the greatest rock bands, ever!

The 5 star packages are a rip off!!! You may get all of the above mentioned,but you don't get to meet the band. I don't mind waiting outside if it means saving a ton of money.

I am a huge Melissa Etheridge Fan and she has a similar package for select shows on her tours for around $1000 dollars and it includes hotel, 24 hour on site host preshow party and also a meet and greet with MLE and a personally signed souvineer. Hers is alo very expensive ,but at least it includes a meet and greet and hotel accomidations.

At the last Robert Pollard/Boston Spaceships show in Nashville back in October, in which Bob did a funny rant about me (stating I was in it for the MILF...funny stuff), I had a little accident after the show and had to go to the hospital (required 12 stitches above my left eye).

Hospital co-pays: $235
Hotel: $116
Gas: $100
Dog Kennel: $40
Booze: $30
Ticket: $15
Juices and water: $8
Subway: $5
TOTAL $549

While I didn't get a meet and greet, I did get a "Steve, you really need to go to the hospital" from the band and associates (I wasn't necessarily cooperative). And, I went drinking with Bob and friends three days later (living in Dayton has its perks). I also learned that Baptist's grits were disappointing for Tennessee grits. Two weeks later, John Moen (Spaceships' drummer) was on Conan O'Brien with the Decembrists.

Now, on Saturday (if the show isn't sold out), I'll be meeting Chris Hillman of the Byrds/Flying Burrito Bros. It's a bluegrass show. He's playing here in Dayton at a small bar, and tickets are $20.

So, I sometimes go drinking with my favorite singer/songwriter and I'm about to meet a key member of two of my favorite bands. All for under $600. And, that's altogether. Tickets were combined only $35.

That's why I couldn't imagine paying $1000+ just to get in the venue early, get honestly not that close to the band, meet Mick Fleetwood (who I've already met), and see a band do a bunch of songs I've heard a million times.

Who has to wait outside the venue? These aren't general admission shows.

That's worth it, IMO.
