upcoming shows

this is my m.o. - i hear about a concert i want to go to, i buy two tickets, then ask around to see who wants to go. this tactic has left me with tickets to 6 upcoming shows.

april 4 - tokyo police club
april 17 - john mayer
april 17 - john legend
may 5 - ten second epic
may 18 - damien rice
may 26 - fall out boy

ok, so don't judge me on the fall out boy show. i think it's going to be good. outdoor venue, and +44 is on the bill too.

and yes, the two johns are on the same day, so i'm going to sell the john mayer tickets b/c there's no way i can go to two shows in one night.

my "buy now, ask later" policy has also left me with potentially no one to go to the tokyo police club show with. they're playing with the cold war kids, who i've heard about, but have never heard any of their stuff.

so here are my choices:

1. sell the tickets. shouldn't be a problem b/c it's at a small venue and both shows are sold out. i'm pretty wiped from work these days, so a concert on a school night would be draining.

2. go alone. i don't really have alone-a-phobia, but could i go to a show alone? when dallas green was playing 4 city and colour shows back to back last year, i did try and see if there were scalpers who had an extra ticket to the last show, but no luck. good thing i caught the first show. that was for dallas though, i wouldn't think twice at going alone to his show, but for a band i don't know very well?

hmmmmmm, dilemma. thoughts?

on a dallas related note - the live city and colour CD/DVD came out today. everyone should go buy it. the dvd was filmed in march 2006, which were when the 4 shows in toronto were!
