[Slowhand] Crossroads Guitar Festival and Ticketmaster

[Dale.Kalina at rrd.com]

I never thought I would have anything GOOD to say about Ticketmaster, but
after quickly logging on and ordering tickets on Saturday without a hitch
and then having the tickets arrive in yesterday's mail, I have to admit
this was one transaction with them that went very smoothly.  Was it worth
the $78 in "convenience charges" and handling fees?  Not really, but it
sure beats dealing with scalper prices.

BTW, the $1006 price listed for the reserved seating on Ticketmaster
probably made it easier to purchase these seats.  I have seen several
comments about potential purchasers who elected not to pursue these tickets
due to the erroneous price shown.  For us old-timers who can't imagine
standing in a hot, sweaty crowd on a Chicago July afternoon, the prospect
of a comfortable seat in the shade makes anticipation of the show greater.
Even though we will be slightly beyond midfield, we have seats and will be
there!
