Two THOUSAND?! Folks will buy bikes and just sell 'em. Come on.
Give all low income folks a free bikeshare membership. Much safer than a lot of the ebikes that have been flooding the market recently that have unsafe brakes/batteries.

I think Bowser is trying to win the all time record for putting horribly unsuited people in charge of things. Corruption at its finest.

Dude settle the fuck down. I MEANT Beck was "essentially" the headliner cause he's so much better, esp live. I don't blame anyone for getting tickets to this just to see Beck - /that/ was my point.

Does anybody know - if you go in person to the anthem box office and buy tickets that way does it come directly from them or still go through Ticketmaster with all of their bull crap and fees?

I did this when I had tickets to see a music festival where there was supposed to be Devo, and then Devo pulled out. It was the only reason I wanted to go and they would not refund my tickets so I did a charge back. But as somebody else said, you can really only get away with that once or rarely. Don't make a practice out of it.

What I hate about this is that we have no idea what he did or did not do. Allegations are allegations and sometimes what looks like truth to one person looks like something else to somebody else. Do I think people should be called out for crap? Sure. But I'm also really uncomfortable when people automatically believe just one side of the story.
The real thing here is that Beck was essentially the headliner. Arcade Fire would open for Beck not the other way around. Come on - you ever seen Beck in concert? Insane. Although, was a scientologist. So if we're going to make judgments about what people do and whether or not to see them in concert that should be part of the equation too, no?

And that is when you do a credit card charge back.

This is exactly what I'd like to offer - was cash through the system being described here, or something else?
