i know it's completely passe (not to mention useless) to complain about ticketmaster charges, but this has gotten TOTALLY OUT OF HAND! i haven't used TM in a while, but i've been raging since i just bought a single ticket to see bloc party in chicago come september 14, and this is how it broke down:

item charge
Full Price Ticket $21.50
Total Building Facility Charge(s) $1.50
Total Convenience Charge(s) $8.50
Additional Taxes $.032
Order Processing Charge(s) $4.55
ticketFast Delivery $2.50
TOTAL CHARGES US $38.37

and this is how a ~$20 ticket gets turned into a ~$40 one.

kids, it's time for a revolucion! i dunno what, but...this cannot go on.

maybe i'm behind on this but

tommy makes fun of me whenever i watch vh1's best week ever, but my liking for the show has JUST BEEN VALIDATED FOREVER because they pointed me towards the awesomest, most bizarre internet clip EVER - really, ever, no kidding - a promo clip for next season of lost, directed by dave lachapelle, showing all the characters dancing in slow motion, dressed in sort of 20s-style-meets-starving-deserted-island getups and smeared makeup to FUCKING PORTISHEAD.

watch it here.
