I won tickets to a Concert cause my house sucks

Living End are badass. Offspring is a guilty pleasure. Other than that, not a huge fan of the other bands but who cares. Free tickets. Go and have a good time even if there's lame bands playing.

Well, I never heard of River Rave till this year because this is the first time I started listening to WBRU a WBCN affiliate.

I used to listen to FNX who also broadcast out of Boston and are, I'm guessing, a rival station.

So the Rave, despite having amazing lineups each year goes pretty underhyped

FNX is really small compared to BCN. They're a small-time station owned by the same guy that owns the Boston Phoenix (his wife is that judge, Maria Lopez, that had the big controversy because of being more sympathetic to a child molester than the victim). WBCN has been a big time rock station in Boston for ages (I'm pretty sure they've been around since the 60's, at least 70's).

The River Rave is hyped pretty big around the Boston area. It's one of the big summer concerts in the area. They've had some great lineups in years past. This one has some decent bands on the roster. Here is the schedule for the day. Unfortunately, I'm going to be out of town for the weekend.

Living End are great. The other bands are meh, but a concert's a concert, you know?

Now I have an issue.

I got the tickets monday and asked my friend, Tim, if he wanted to go. Since his parents pay for his gas and its like a 140 mile trip up and back. Well I told him to find out before Friday when I get the tickets so if he can't go, I have time to find someone who can.

So now he still hasn't asked his parents and is being really fucking stupid and it seems like he doubts I'll get tickets and says he isn't going to ask till I get them. That will leave with 1 day to find someone who can go.

I have another, perhaps better friend, Josh who I've known for like 8 years who I could also bring. Josh and I haven't hung out as much recently because we both have girlfriends, but we can still hang out and its like we never missed a beat. Problem with Josh going is he can't drive so we must use the parents up and back, which probably won't be that much of a problem.

Also I'd have to explain to Tim that he isn't going anymore.

So what should I do?

I would have had the Darkness come, and then poison the Barbecue.

And then bury them upside down in my backyard, and have the surviving members of Queen and Led Zeppelin come over and urinate repeatedly on their graves.
