Damn Belvy, is this being used for a proper date-night opportunity? Idk if you're already 'spoken for' but if not, holy crap this is a good chance to kick back in the groove and make some moves (as literally as you wanna take that)

But since you mentioned 4 tickets, shoot, I womder if that means you're going with friends/family? Shoot, maybe you get extra bonus points for bringing her frienhds/family.... naaaahhhhh one is enough, unless you ARE married at which point you get those 4 tix and just kinda gulp and go "yeap."

who are you looking forward to seeing more:

I have never been to a single concert that cost $150 and I don't plan on going to one either.

I agree for two reasons. First, I don't think I am excessively cheap but I fear that, during the concert In the back of my mind I would keep thinking "I paid 150 bucks for this, so I'd better enjoy it." This would inevitably make me feel cheap and diminish the concert experience for me. Second a live performance is still something of a communal experience, and people who drop that kind of coin for a show are not usually the folks in the music fans I hang with (present company excluded, of course.)

Christine McVie is the deal breaker for you? Really?

For Fleetwood Mac? Why wouldn't she be? It's not like she's Stevie Nicks but she's pretty damn important.

If you upgraded to the $200 premium tickets, it includes doing a line of blow with Stevie followed by a post concert argument with her and Lindsey over whose soul baring relationship songs were better on Rumours.

I also wouldn't pay $150 unless the USC Band shows up to play Tusk.

80$ would be my cap for just a concert

Like if say the Entire Wu Tang Clan wanted me to hang out with them for a few days leading up to the show, I might spend a little more.
