Raleigh, NC - July 30 - Avril Lavigne Bandaids: The Best Damn Avril Lavigne Fansite

**Hunter** · 03-29-2008, 07:26 AM

Who's going? I know there is not a lot of North Carolinians on here but its worth a shot. I thought about going to the Charlotte show instead, but that one is on my dad's birthday and I didn't want him to go through all the concert "hype" on his Birthday.

I'm going to the one down here in Charlotte.
I bet I'm the only one from Bandaids going to this one lol
and you might be the only one going to the Raleigh one

Stupid presale for Jonas fanclub members, bleh all good seats got taken.
Still have pretty good seats in the middle near the back.

I wasn't planning on going to see her this tour until it was announced she was coming here. Kind of a shock

Well technically it's not the "best damn tour" and it's just extra dates. And yeah, I ordered my tickets on ticketmaster.com right about 12 and I'm all the way back in section 8. Hey it's Avril. Also, the dates that Avril and the brothers will be together, they are coheadlining which means they will play the equal amount of time and we will have to endure the brothers, unless you like them. SO Avril's set will probably be shortened down. I have nothing against them, I'm just not really into them and I would perfer if she was still with Boys Like Girls who I really like.

Yea, i know its extra dates. LOL I'm sitting in Section 8 too. Row Y.
No, i hate those kids. My sister loves them, so I'm taking her. I've been trying to win tickets from the radio, but no luck.
My taste in music is Metallica, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Ozzy, Rob Zombie, Rage Against the Machine, etc... Avril's the only pop musician i like. Kinda weird how I got into her lol

It'll be my first time seeing her perform live on stage.

Also, concert tickets and merchandise prices seem to be going out of hand o.0
I'd buy tickets anyway no matter what the price, but 2 mid section tickets costing almost $200 with all those added fees is crazy. I can't imagine what families have to pay.

**Hunter** · 03-30-2008, 05:37 AM

Yes, the extra fees are absolutly useless and ridiculous. We got two lawn seats for my mom and my sister, which cost 27.50 a peice, but after the fees they ended up adding together to like $93! With out the fees, 27.50 + 27.50 is 55. So ultimately just for my mom and sisters tickets (this doesn't include mine and my dads) they had to pay about 38 dollars in fees! All four of our tickets combined after fee's was like $236!

Yeah, I guess where alone when it comes to North Carolina, lol AKA BUMP.

I'm in upstate SC, and if I can get the cash, I'm going to a NC show. Probably not gonna happen, since I'm already going to the Atlanta show next week, but I'm trying my best!

**Hunter** · 04-18-2008, 04:34 PM

man, I would love to go to the Atlanta show because it is actually part of her best damn tour and not with the Jonas Bros.

**Hunter** · 07-23-2008, 10:07 AM

So the concerts comming up... I'm excited.

D-rac · 07-28-2008, 04:55 AM

I'm thrilled =)
Just gotta make it through the screams of the "cookie cutter boy band" fans.
Too bad the price of one beer is about the price of a regular 6 pack, talk about outrageous =P At least we can take water in.

Still seems like it's just us going to the NC shows lol

I'm hoping for a long concert. Like say the Brothers open @7pm and play for about 2hrs and then Aviril comes out and plays for 3-4hrs. Was like that the last concert I went to, but who knows with this one.

**Hunter** · 07-28-2008, 06:03 AM

^ Guess what... Word is in that Jonas Brothers are closing the show since its technically its thier tour. Yup, they are closing.Can you believe it? But I hear that Avril still plays about an hour. My dad and I agreed that after Avril's set, we would leave which is OK with me. I've got about a 2 hour drive home and I hate being in a car late at night when I could be a nice comfortable bed. So after Avril, we are shooting out, lol.

Hey man I'm sorry to burst your bubble but....Avril goes first, the Jonas are last. Yeah it sucks I know. At least you dont have to watch the whole Jonas set.
And....3-4 hours?! I hope you're joking.....It's going to be 1 hour from Avril, 1 hour and 10 mins tops.

**Hunter** · 07-28-2008, 06:38 AM

^ That's very true.
