Yet is it worth it, under those circumstances, to pay $60 for a ticket -- just to hear that one song you love played live? Obviously, since I bought the ticket, the answer, at least for right now, is yes. Because I have said no to other artists because the price was too high -- Steve Lacy ("Playground," which, according to Setlist.fm, he's not playing in his shows) recently, and Cowboy Junkies (their legendary cover of "Sweet Jane," although "Common Disaster" is also a very good song of theirs) last year I think. I can justify sixty bucks for one song, and who knows, maybe this is a way to get into their other songs, too.
So I'm going. My college football team's first bye Week, and I am spending the evening going out instead of staying in and watching sports. Oh, well.
