Three Aces

I try and be humble round here, but sometimes things get the better of me. And I try to be mild mannered for the most part, but today at least, I’d like it if you would check my shit the FUCK out because as of this Friday, I hold tickets to:

New York City

James Taylor

and

The Police

I got my The Police tickets within 10 minutes of them going on sale. I was twelve when they played Nice and I was too young to go, and instead had to wait a couple of years to see Sting play in Avignon, which was my first gig.

But now that I hold some The Police tickets, I am filled with the pride and smugnamity of someone who has laid to rest a demons of their youth after 23 years.

It’s OK though. Not a big year or anything.

    If you’re talking about New York City as in Manhattan and not New York City the 70s band, then we have to get together when you’re here! It’s been too long.

    goot to hear from you!

    Goot? What?? I don’t know where that came from. Ang is not German and I am not a racist.

    Um, Jesus. Still want to meet up?

    You worm-eating toad. If you were a nice man, you’d give me your tickets.
