Gig tickets - been let down, not sure what to do

[drewster]

Sell the tickets on seatwave and then invest the return on some golf retail therapy to make you feel better!!! Not getting into a Nirvana v Foos debate but Nirvana were absolutely awful when I saw them at Reading many years ago. They were buried on a mid Saturday afternoon slot and were just toilet. Obviously before they became the mainstream darlings but nevertheless just rubbish. Didn't get much better after that either but there was the Sid and Nancy sideshow romance, and KC's demise that sold a load of records for them. My only caveat to how overated Nirvana were is their MTV Unplugged piece which was very good. If you want to talk Pearl Jam from that same movement then i'm all ears !!!

Is that the same Reading set that was made into a live album and is fantastic?

I'm seeing Pearl Jam on the 19th, four days before I see Foos on the 23rd.

Oh I'd love to see that. Early Nirvana gig footage I've seen is certainly raw - a lot of drug taking before shows.
