Should I Stay or Should I Go?

I find myself in a bit of quagmire right now. My situation is basically I am in some major debt, and since I’m in school and am not allowed to have a car while at school I am unable to get a job. So I’ve been jobless for about 8 months and only work when there are events going on at the concert hall that I work at, and let me add that it is pretty rare for it to get events. I do get out of school on Thursday the 4th of May but I don’t have any jobs lined up quite yet, I’m seeking an internship that will pay but we will see how that works out. Now Radiohead finally announced they are going on tour, and they are one of my favorite bands. I can’t go and say that they are a top 10 band for me but certainly somewhere between 10 and 20. They are playing a very small venue which only holds 1,500 people but tickets cost around $50. My decision to see Tool was easy to say the least since they are my third favorite band ever and I think Maynard James Keenan is a God. Tickets go on sale May 5th, and rumors are saying their set list will derive heavily from new material which sort of disappoints me especially considering it is yet to be released. Now should I stay or should I go?

If you don't go you are insane. Why? Because life is too short, money will come and go but seeing a band you like does not present itself all that often.

When you look back on 2006 you won't say "that was the year I didn't have a whole lotta cash" you will look back and say "that was the year I saw Radiohead!".

If you want to make some extra money I will hire you to put a new banner on my blog for $50. I am serious. I was going to pay a guy $80 and he never got back to me. I don't have time to find something I like OR know how the heck to put it on there, its worth $50 to me.

If you are interested let me know - oh,it's for Layla's Classic Rock. I want to add some pizzazz to is so maybe I will be inspired to write on there again and make it way more interesting.

I think you just may have convinced me to go. And I would love to help you put a new banner on your website but I have no photoshop skills or any graphic design skills with computers. Thank you for the offer though, and thanks for the good advice!

well put a tip jar on your blog and ask for 50 people to put in one dollar (just kidding - sort of, I've seen people do that and I always donate a buck or two, what the heck right?)

JUST GO TO THE CONCERT AND ENJOY!

Sometimes you men can be so damn logical, it drives me nuts :)
