Fifth Avenue Forum

When I woke up today, I had no intention on going to see Rage and Run The Jewels. Several hours later, I ended up getting a ticket.

Coworker told me he was in the queue and was at 2000+, so after about 10 minutes of telling him that I missed out on seeing them and House Of Pain in Tijuana in 93, I semi-jokingly told him I was heading back to see if I could get Rage tickets (he had since closed out of his window.)

So I get back to my desk and signed on, it was the same deal: I was 2000+ in the queue. After about 5-10 minutes, the numbers started dropping and dropping quickly. 1450, 1100, 640. I figured I was in this far, why not hang around and see what's available? Next update was 1. I was next in line. OK, I'll humor myself and see how much lowers are going for. There were two in 115 that were front row and on the aisle. Before I could even click on them, they were gone. They are now listed as charity tickets and are going for 4x face. The last lower that I saw was also in 115, top row. I managed to grab it for $125.

Old but also amazing is that he had to have been 40 in that pic from circa 1985 but looked about 22.

Little Stevie Wonder turns 70 today.
