TOOL! pt.2

So This morning I woke up at 8:15, had my breakfast and my dad and I were prepared with laptops in hand and wallets in back pockets.

We left the house at 9:20 and got to Starbucks by 9:30. My dad created his account and I logged into mine and we waited...and waited...and waited.

I was poised over the mousepad at 9:59. And by 10am exactly I refreshed my page, told my dad to do the same, and we both went head first into battle.

I told him to go for the most expensive ticket and then to hit best available.

I did floor seats only.

He found MEZZ seats.

I found nothing.

So I tried again, and again, and again.

Still nothing, until I changed my search to 1 seat only, with best available at the most expensive cost.

I found MEZZ seats. We compared, he had row 17 or something, I had row 9. I bought mine and accepted my fate.
70 out of pocket.

But then, out of nowhere I decided to fuck about and try the search again, for best available 1 seat most expensive.

FLOOR SEATS ROW 10 popped up in section A. I about pissed myself with fucking excitement.


I grabbed them without hesitation. I've been in a pit ten people back and I've gotten AWESOME pictures. Yes, first or second row would have been amazing, and clearly positive thinking did not help me here, BUT I got floor seats, pretty fucking close to the stage and I'm honestly stoked at can be.

I'm currently trying to sell my other ticket now. Plus there's the off chance that I'll win (probably not) the front row seats on FM99. (that would be fucking awesome)

But I'm overjoyed with what I got, I call this a success people. a true success.

Now all I have to do is not get injured or die before the concert. So people, don't drive like crazy people. I need to live to see this concert. After Friday Feb. 3rd 11:59pm. It's fair game.
