What to do? I’ve been cursing Clear Channel because their inflated ticket prices are keeping me from attending four anticipated shows in the next two months, including Mission of Burma ($22.50), The Roots ($27.50), Sigur Rós ($29.50), and Television ($25.00). But now I see that King Crimson is playing on March 7th, and tickets are a whopping $45.00. I’ve never seen King Crimson; I’ve always wanted to see King Crimson; and considering they’ve been doing their thing for upwards of 35 years or so, I don’t know how many more chances I’ll have to see King Crimson.

So I don’t know what to do. The degree to which I don’t want to fork over that much cash is equal to the degree to which I don’t want to miss this show. I implore you, faithful readers: tell me what to do (or buy me a ticket).
