  Sold out shows make me cry.

Team Rebecca/Andy/Paul/Peter/Lawrence (or RAPPLa, as I like to call us) secured a total of ten tickets for the sold-out Bloc Party show on May 31 at Slim's. These aren't being price gouged just yet. After fees and whatnot, they were $15 each, so I imagine they'll end up being re-sold for between $25 and $30 each.

Ben Folds, on the other hand, is a bitch. Unbeknownst to me, tickets for his show in Saratoga went on sale today at 10am, and had I not just happened to be browsing benfolds.com today because I was bored at my overpaid job, I wouldn't have ever known they were available today. I was able to buy one (1) ticket no less than ten minutes before they were completely sold out. Bullshit, says I. After fees, this one (1) stupid ticket cost me almost $70, but due to the popularity of the act (the tour also features handsome Rufus Wainwright), I think I can get a handsome chunk of cash for my ticket. However, at the same time, I really want to go see Mr. Ben. I saw him in November of 2003 at the Warfield (for a modest $20), and it rocked my little socks off. But going to see Ben Folds by myself would be sad a lonely. So I need to find two tickets (sitting next to each other) for not a million bajillion dollars. Any leads?

**Update. I'm a dork. Just the presale is sold out. Yay for me and the American way of life.**
