I love concerts. But I do not like concert ticket prices. :-p Toooo expensive. B.B. King came into town a few months ago, but retail tickets were $50 a pop! Ouch! Needless to say, we spent the night at home, listening to CDs! I wish I’d known to check online for better prices. I would also love to go to a Delirious concert– you guys in the United Kingdom know this group– Delirious is from the UK and UKers have told me that their concerts are the best ever. Their music is just FABULOUS! *\o/* They have a sound a lot like U2 (Martin Smith sounds a lot like Bono when he sings).
If you live in Europe and need some great tickets– or want to sell tickets– check out GETMEIN.com. Love the name. Currently, U2 tickets are selling like hotcakes, as the saying goes. The group has a new album out at last, and are touring the UK for 2009. Check out the site for great deals!
Get Great Ticket Deals

Now that summer is officially over, sports has begun in super-high gear around here. School sports and especially professional sports seems to be Upstate New York’s favorite pastime. People are really passionate about their sports up here. I noticed that in my local newspaper, the sports section of the newspaper is now larger and fuller than the other two sections combined. Yikes!
So I have a sweet deal for you sports lovers: StubPass.com has loads and loads of tickets at great prices for all sports events. Right now NBA tickets are hot, especially the Boston Celtics tickets (who are expected to play a great season this year, according to my local radio sportscaster).
StubPass.com has more than basketball tickets, though. They have volleyball, skating, hockey, rugby, rodeo, and more! They also have tickets to my favorite sports event: gymnastics. Oh and guys, don’t worry– they have football, baseball, and racing tickets, too.
And not into sports? Try StubPass.com for concert tickets and theatre, opera, ballet, circus, Broadway, and Off-Broadway shows. They’ve even got a terrific section for tickets for religious events, like Joel Osteen services, Marvin Winan appearances, and the National Prayer Service conference.
Their website is searchable by city, by event, by topic, by venue, and more. I did notice that you can get great deals on the Lion King Off-Broadway and South Pacific playing at Lyceum Theatre right now.
StubPass.com can connect you with sports and other entertainments playing all around the world, so it’s not a site limited to football in the United States. This site offers a great variety of people, places, and events everywhere.
I recommend that you give StubPass.com a try if you are looking for some great deals on tickets– whether you’re into basketball, wrestling, ballet, or are looking for notices and tickets for prayer conventions and concerts.
Are You Ready For Some…

…football?
You knew it was coming, didn’t you?
Spectator sports are very, very popular around here. I’m actually very amazed at how popular they are, especially football. Perhaps it is due to the colder weather that keeps us more inactive, or the fact that my state has a Superbowl-playing-but-never-Superbowl-winning team in New York State. I am not a big sports fan, but I do like football. Footballs games are kind of like Chevys, Moms, and apple pies– quintessentially New York, yaknowwhudImean?
It’s the season for football, and especially for football tickets. Here’s a website for your sports aficionados to keep in mind for your next ticket splurge: StubPass.com. The site is very well done; it’s well organized by football categories and football teams. It’s clean and simple to use. Buying tickets is extremely easy. I am always impressed when a website- especially travel and sports/recreation sites are user-friendly. They also have a 100% buyer guarantee: offering you tickets that are authentic and valid for entry; a secure transaction when you buy tickets; the promise that you will receive your tickets in time for the game(s); and a guaranteed refund if the event is canceled and not rescheduled. They have contact form for questions and comments, too! Check them out, the prices are great. And enjoy the season!
Seat Exchange

Here’s a cool idea– and no surprise there’s a cool website to go with it– SeatExchange.com. Need concert tickets? Sports tickets? They’ve got a huge variety of stuff available. It’s all categorized, too; I like that! Everything from Thomas & Friends Live to NHL Hockey to The Mikado opera performance.
This is from their website:
SeatExchange provides an online website where fans can buy, sell and trade like a pro to over hundreds of leading arenas, stadiums, performing arts venues and museums. Our personal objective is to give convenient, secure and fair access to the best possible and sold-out tickets at fair market value for our buyers. For our sellers, we offer the best systems, services and tools for the optimal sale of tickets to a massive audience.
Our method in doing so includes offering an untouchable selection, extraordinary service and the maximum security needed to perform any transactions. By introducing our clients to an incredibly large audience, we have the ability to empower our clients by granting connections to ticket holders all over the world.
I can see how something like this is very popular for Upstate New Yorkers, since so much of our recreational activities are spent indoors. Sports are extremely popular, and if you can get great deals, it’s all the better! If you like buying tickets (or selling or exchanging), check out the site. They say that all orders are 100% guaranteed. The variety is staggering, so there’s something for everyone there.
