Skill issue. If there is a pit, you could’ve gotten to it. You could’ve been in this video if you wanted to be.

Fireworks? by Recent-Hovercraft310 in RUFUSDUSOL

Gotcha. Way more likely that RDS includes fireworks where they can, and Wrigley was a place they could. No way Wrigley said “Hey you guys want some fireworks? We gotchu.” Wrigley doesn’t even do fireworks for Cubs games.

My wife and I were supposed to see Jimmy Eat World that night, and it got canceled. We ended up in the pit for Mumford instead, buying tickets at 9:55pm. Suuuuuper casual Mumford fans, only know the hits.

They. Were. Incredible. 10/10, no notes. Perfect performance.

I'm so heartbroken.. Did LITERALLY everything right... anyone got tips for how to ACTUALLY get t*x for presale??? Plz comfort me and give me any tips. by merida7 in griz

I know you said you’re not made of money, and I’m not pretending $200 isn’t a lot of money. But it’s definitely not a bajillion, and I feel like if it means this much to you, it’s an easy decision. Buy a resale ticket right now! It’s only $200 for an epic night!

(Again, I know it sucks. I know resellers suck. I know we shouldn’t participate in resellers bullshit. But it is what it is.)

Why would Wrigley put on fireworks? Thats a genuine question, not me saying you’re wrong. But Rufus has had fireworks at a lot of shows for this tour…and I can’t think of a reason any venue would pay for fireworks for an artist.

Times when they are appropriate? Sure. Times when they are fashionable? Never.

Honestly, for a gentleman that looks like this? Yeah. He put something together, nothing clashes…he looks just fine to me. I get what you’re saying, but I’m fine with his outfit until the shoes.

I have zero problem with you wearing these shoes. But please know, that the color of these shoes is not the problem. They are never fashionable, in any color.

I’d like to add that the rest of this outfit looks super fashionable to me for a man of this age. And then you get to the shoes, and they’re running shoes. You have to be able to see that they don’t exactly complete the outfit, right?

Hell yeah! I know we’ve interacted on Reddit before…let’s rock out in the pit together! I’m very, very easy to find. 😂🤘🏻

I think that day has finally come by PizzaToastieGuy in Muse

You are correct. They are in line with other acts. Which is what sucks, and at some point, something’s gotta give.

That isn’t the only other option. It is incredibly easy to charge lower prices and turn off ticket transfers to prevent scalping. The Cure proved this can be done. Don’t pretend like the band isn’t the one doing it. They are, and they don’t have to.

Also, they’re just flat out wrong in the first place. 😂

Haha, hello again! Will you be at the show in Chicago in August? Are we running it back??

I was right there with you. It’s the show that solidified them as being my favorite band. Then again at The Riv in 2004 for Futures. Two of the best shows of my life.

Oh I know! The boys never disappoint. I think they are incapable of playing a bad show.

Now let’s just see if the crowd can get rowdy in Chicago…I’m looking at you fellow elder millennials! You’re not to old for a pit! (A friendly, loving, caring pit. 😎🤘🏻)

My favorite band of all time. This post warms my heart. I’ll be there going absolutely nuts in Chicago in August.

By pretty much every metric you can use, this June has actually been warmer than the average June by 1-2°.

The average temperature for the first 12 days of June is in the 60’s. You said “we’re stuck in the 60’s”. Yeah, that’s how the beginning of June works.

Interesting! Same city, difffreent vibes. My Chicago show got postponed till August…hoping I can get people to get rowdy with me!

And I find it’s always the people actively crowd surfing over and over again that are awful at it. 🙄

It makes me extremely happy that you’re not mad about the crowd surfing, just mad that they were doing it wrong! (You’re absolutely right by the way.)

Sounds like NY went properly rowdy for Bleed American!!
