There seems to be a number of 80's bands playing there in the next month.

How much were tickets BTW? I've looked at concerts at Deerfoot Casino, but they wanted about $100 each for tix.

Tix were $35 (sans "rape" charge) with the Folk Fest password ("magnet"). I think for 2 tix it worked out to about $85.40 with all fees.

I think I saw in FastForward that the tickets are 40 bucks followed by the letters TM, which I assume means "Ticketmaster", which I assume means the tickets are actually about 55 bucks.

Edit:

Well I tried to find out how much tickets cost and I remembered another reason to hate Ticketmaster -- you have to deal with their positively useless phone system. After 10 minutes in an endless loop I gave up.

I did see somewhere that the "convenience charge" is a mere 7 dollars. Tack on GST, fisting charge, pick-up charge or delivery charge, charge for using your own printer and the obligatory hc (hidden charge) and I'm sure it gets up near $55. It doesn't really matter how much they cost though because I couldn't have bought one even if I wanted to, which I do, but I won't.
