It will probably be one of the most magical experiences you will ever hear!
hope this helps you out
sam wow! i didnt know that simon plays most of the instruments while recording! now i am even more impressed with this guy's talents. thats truly amazing. Yes he is truly one of the most magical audio specialt head and ear candy creators on the planet just his skills on a guitar are enough to make people astonished then you take I'n the fact that he played live bass keyboards samplers and then to top it off his engineering skills can not be beat period no other artist has the skills he posesses. This is of course not to mention that he was and is the worlds psytance pioneer as hallucinogen just amazing beyond comprehension.

Woo! See you guys there. I saw the Shpongletron earlier this year and was fortunate enough to witness their first live US appearance at Bisco, which was an amazing show. I'm super stoked for this one...really can't wait to have my mind completely blown again.  My mind craves nectar day and night.
Like a blue lotus floating on the sea of love.
Lingering in ashantic realms
Lingering in the akashic realms
Lingering in, lingering in the realms.
Blue lotus floats, floating, floating..
Some laugh, some weep, some dance for joy.
My mind craves nectar day and night.

Dammit! I can't go. The @#%&*!!! Fox won't sell me a single ticket for reserved seating. I had this same problem when I wanted to see Queens of the Stone Age. Anybody know a way around this?

Not sure what you mean. Fox box office is only open for in person sales during restricted hours on Friday. Ticketmaster or the even worse ripoff third party vendors (read slick scalpers in my book) such as Barry's Tickets may (may not) still have tickets. As of this posting I did a test with Ticketmaster for 1 Loge ticket and it came up - decent seating, Section E. I'd recommend you move immediately.

Yeah, that's the same ticket I was shown two separate times when I tried to buy it from Ticketmaster. But neither time would the sale go through. I dunno, I guess I'll go try again in case of outlandish coincidence; they do happen. For the QOTSA show last April the webpage straight up didn't have the option of one ticket in the pull-down menu. It was 2, 4, 6, etc. And thank you for the info about the box office on Friday. I was wondering if I could just go down there and talk to a human, so I would know for sure what the deal is. P.S. Incredible icon you have there. "What's wrong with that generation? ... Is this what comes of putting on Pink Floyd laser lightshows down at the Planetarium?" --Spider Robinson

Man as the time gets closer and closer even my trips are anxious if anyone has never heard the track "the sixth revelation" or "the seventh revelation" listen to either of those two tracks on your next trip no matter whether it's dmt or any other psychedelic preferrably with headphones and not ear buds only then could one even begin to understand the absolute sonic master the Simon posford is. I mean these two tracks among many others are soley and specifically created and designed for the purpose of trip candy. If anyone has never had the pleasure of hearing these somewhat rare tracks send me a private message with your email and you will have them I'n minutes peace to you all

Hey, Pandora: Thanks to your encouragement, I tried again, and this time it worked! Woo hoo! I really don't know if I would have tried again because I thought I knew what the problem was, silly me. I'll see y'all there. I'll probably be the only person in a Motorhead shirt hee hee, come up and say hello. "What's wrong with that generation? ...

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I really hope I can get out there to see that! I live in mormon country so it's a bit of a drive but i'm gonna do anything and everything i can to go see that show. Wish me luck? Also if I am able to go I was planning on taking some sillycybin mushrooms with some tetrahydroharmine and a cannaedible. Anyone tried this combo before. I've done it but with smoked cannabis and a gram of shroomage and I was wondering if anyone has done this with an upped dose and if it would be kosher for a concert. anyway hope to see most of you shpongled folk there!

Soo stoked.

Man Ive been contemplating going so much! it will just turn into a lot of money by the time I factor everything in :/ The Edge... there is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over. The others--the living--are those who pushed their control as far as they felt they could handle it, and then pulled back, or slowed down, or did whatever they had to when it came time to choose between now and later - HST
