So this is my story. Last year I won the Ticket for Life, and I felt the luckiest man in the world. I thought it couldn't be better, but a month ago, I saw this posted on the Stage Right Ryche Facebook page (the one for Gianluca and John Zocco, keys and bass techs):

Quote

ATTENTION ATTENTION FELLOW FOLLOWERS OF THE RYCHE!! CONTEST!!

There has been a slight shift in momentum for Drumlandia over the last week and we need to regain the #1 position as the leader in "likes" for CrewNation. We are at a modest 823 likes while they have over 1300!!! Time to change!!

Rules: Only one winner will be selected from the Founding Fathers. Deadline will be on July 16th, 2012. NO CURSES OR NUDITY!

GOOD LUCK!!!!

I wasn't very interested at first, but a few days later Gianluca posted this:

Quote

Winner of the contest gets a backstage pass to a show of your choice and a personalized video via Youtube of Jordan Congratulating you on your victory! Make is funny and be creative!!...Good Luck!

I made the video and I won. So now, I hace the Ticket for Life and a backstage pass (not VIP, friggin backstage

). I've ordered two tickets for the Luna Park shows, one for each night, even knowing that I can't go, because I live in Spain.

The thing is, do you guys think karma will eventually kill me or something?

It would only be fair.

Why in the world would you buy tickets for the Buenos Aires show if you can't go?

I don't think that's how karma works but probably yes

I haven't bought them, I've only ordered? them. With the ticket for life I can access any show for free. You never know what's gonna happen. I could end up in Argentina, so...

Nekov · « **Reply #6 on:** August 06, 2012, 07:16:33 PM »

Ahh, that makes sense. Well, if you end up in Argentina let me know and I'll buy you a beer

Nest777 · « **Reply #7 on:** August 06, 2012, 07:20:33 PM »

Hahaha thanks

I'll let you know

Ass

Really.

Just kidding, you've got some very good juju going on there.

Adami · « **Reply #9 on:** August 06, 2012, 07:25:47 PM »

I just talked to a friend of mine in Argentina. He said he was super psyched to get tickets to the two shows, but that the last 2 were "taken" at the last minute. He was very very very violently angry.

His name is Karma.

Nest777 · « **Reply #10 on:** August 06, 2012, 07:27:25 PM »

There you go. Karma starts the signal.

Set things right and pass it forward - the tickets that is -- to a deserving fan in South America.

I would, really, but I can't. Even though I own a big hispanic community it's not in my hand to do that. To get the tickets I have to go personally to the venue the day of the show, and present my identification. So it's very imposiblle $:-\$

can i have it?

Fuck you. Nobody likes you. Go to Hell.

Obviously I'm joking. Congrats man, and enjoy!

If I were you, I'd sell my kidney and go to Argentina.

Well I lowered my cholesterol 5 points in a month eating Quaker oatmeal. Enjoy your silly little rock and roll loot. I have the benefit of good health.

What are you saying? That I should change my name to Karma?

DT2003 · « **Reply #20 on:** August 08, 2012, 12:18:29 PM »

How exactly does that ticket for life work any way? Can you order any ticket you want and it's free?

Yeah. Travelling's on your own, though.

Congratulations.

Can I please kill you and take the ticket for life and your identity.

Lucky bastard.

Let me get this straight, you live in Spain, you got the tickets for the Argentina shows early in August cause "you never know what's gonna happen" but you do know these shows are 2 or 3 weeks away. Is that what you're saying? Cause it's very weird

btw does Luna Park have seating GA or standing?

Nekov · « **Reply #25 on:** August 10, 2012, 01:37:28 PM »

All seating but people in the lower part always stand up because fuck the rules!

Progmetty · « **Reply #26 on:** August 10, 2012, 01:47:51 PM »

Aha, so two seats reserved, all seating venue, I hope they're not good seats that are now unavailable to others.
Nekov do you expect the shows to sell out?

Nekov · « **Reply #27 on:** August 10, 2012, 02:30:36 PM »

First one is already sold out. Second show is has very few seats available.

That's pretty cool. I had originally figured that they'd give you one show within a given tour. Someone living in the NY/NJ area would make out like a bandit with this as they always do multiple shows in the area.
