This Saturday, starting at 10am the following people will be playing at the Crossroads Blues Festival at Toyota Park in Chicago.
Albert Lee, [b]Allman Brothers Band[/b], [b]BB King[/b], Bert Jansch, Buddy Guy, David Hidalgo and Cesar Rosas of Los Lobos, Doyle Bramhall II, Earl Klugh, [highlight]Eric Clapton[/highlight], Gary Clark Jr., Hubert Sumlin, James Burton, [highlight]Jeff Beck[/highlight], Jimmie Vaughan, Joe Bonamassa, [b]John Mayer[/b], Johnny Winter, Jonny Lang, Keb' Mo', Pino Daniele, Robert Cray, Robert Randolph, Sheryl Crow, Sonny Landreth, Stefan Grossman, Steve Winwood, Vince Gill, and [b]ZZ Top[/b].
Unfortunately the thing is sold out. I searched for tickets online and the cheapest is like $170 for standing room only.
Would you pay that much for these guys? I'm on the fence, plus I have to drive like 5 hours there and back to see them.
No.
It would be worth paying $500 for it.
Go see them.
If you have $150, yes.
If you don't, whore yourself out to raise the money.
I must go now!!!
What the fuck. John Mayer, BB King, Eric Clapton and ZZ Top all together? Get the fuck out there!
If you don't buy that ticket, I'll find you and murder you.
Nothing personal.
Yeah, It's worth seeing ZZ Top, BB King and Eric Clapton for that much.
ZZ Top, BB King, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, and Johnny Fucking Winter, all in one night, standing room only.
GO.

stand up faggot, take the seats
Only thing that could make it better is more Jimmy Page.
But yes, it is beyond worth it.
These are some of the best guitar players alive today, and they're all going to be in one place. Of course you should go. I would kill to go.
if its standing room that is good deal. you can get as close as you want to the stage.
If you go come backstage with me. Eric Clapton lives next door to me so gave me a pass.

Hell yeah, just go a couple hours before doors in order to secure that spot.
No, you're definitely not worth it, that fucking ticket is mine!

GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGO.
Get your ass off FP and go there now.

Sorry bro but we all know that slowhand and his mates live in Guitar Heaven, and only speak to mortals at their epic gigs.
You had to ask? GO
No way.
Not going.
All of my friends are broke, and I'm BARELY gathering enough money to go. Gas is going to cost a lot too.
In other news, I just purchased Eminem and Jay Z tickets for this September!!

you're kidding right
It's like skipping to trip to heaven and instead going to that reenactment museum where the people act like they're from past times and they teach you to make candles and stuff
YES!!! Oh fuck! I'd sell myself to get tickets to that show!!
Jesus christ, what a waste. Ten bucks says that ticket you bought wasn't worth half of what you paid.

stop
cancel those tickets immediately
You're retarded for passing up that chance, my uncle was supposed to go to Led Zeppelin's last concert (not that he knew it'd be their last at the time) but he couldn't make it and he still regrets not going now. Those are some of the best guitarists ever, and all at the same place. Who knows how long they'll last.

Not going to a massive blues fesival...but instead that?
This is considered blasphemy.

But I'm not gonna go alone.
