Well, if it makes you feel any better, when me and my boyfriend went to our local arena the other night to see Counting Crows (they ROCKED, by the way), we were charged five quid ($8-$10) to park in the arena car park, at our own risk, and the arena took no responsibility if the car was stolen or damaged in anyway! We thought that sucked!
Hey, I hope S-U-N-D-A-Y was better!
: Hey, kids. Come up here ‘n sit on ‘ol Uncle Icky’s lap & let me tell ya a story ‘bout a magical place called HOLLYWOOD!
:
: It’s a wonderful place where all the excitement happens. People come from hundreds, sometimes thousands of miles away to see the stars twinkling up close. There’s movie star & celebrities walking the streets everywhere! The streets are lined with gold & silvery jewels! Everybody’s so friendly and warm. So genuine & deep. Hell, they’d give ya the shirts of their backs if ya needed it. And did I mention that if you have to go to a concert or a dance hall to see your favorite popular musical group sing or perform, you can find plenty of free parking for miles around! No driving around and around and around for half an hour, only to have to stand in two lines because some knuckle-dragging ape in a yellow security jacket didn’t tell you that you were standing in the line for people buying tickets when you already had yours. And no one ever has to frisk you as if you were a prisoner in a maximum-security prison or something. Nope, there’s trust in them thar hills. And finding parking’s a breeze, thanks to easy-to-locate free parking everywhere. No one would dream of charging you eighteen dollars just to park your car. That’d be CRAZY! The Club atmosphere is also something to be noted. All of the clubs in Hollywood have state-of-the-art sound systems and lights. And the bars are so inexpensive! You try & find me a watering hole where you can get a Domestic Beer for a measly eight dollars!
: Yes friends, Hollywood IS a magical place, full of wonder and excitement. Did I say EXCITEMENT? I meant EXCREMENT!

: (OK GO rocked, as always. The Donnas…cute, girls, really cute. But come back when you’ve got a drummer who doesn’t lose a beat & a half whenever she hits a crash cymbal. And as far as seeing Dirty Vegas, well, let’s just say we gave up after driving around the square mile perimeter of the club for twenty-five minutes looking for a parking space. Yep. Twenty-five minutes. That’s my limit.)
