CHRIS MOTHERFUCKING CORNELL FOR $38???!!!

posted in Las Vegas |

Chris CornellThe voice of Temple of the Dog, Soundgarden, and Audioslave at the Mandalay House of Blues for 35 bucks?

Are you freakin kidding me?

Fuck Aerosmith and the $203.45 for shitty seats, I am going against my usual habit of buying last minute, and getting tickets to this as soon as the box office opens today.

Cornell in a 1,800 person venue?

    Seriously, I would fly/drive to one of these if at all possible.

    I am somewhat tempted to go to the Hollwood show two days before the Vegas show.

    $30 in Hollywood + shit fees.

    Never mind about Hollywood. It is sold out.

    I’m shocked that the House of Blues is not yet sold out.

    The VIP reserved and seating sections of the HOB are sold out, but what kind of yank is going to stay seated on the sides for a show like this?

    Just for shits, I swung by the Mandalay Ticket booth today and they said that General Admission tickets were $43 and that there were no “special reserve” tickets as quoted on their website.

    Doesn’t match what their website says, but I dunno.

    I guess they just make this stuff up as they go along.
