| ______________________________________ [Oct 29,2011 5:02pm - goatcatalyst ""] just tried to get tickets @ ticketweb and it said they're not available. there's no way in fuck this can be sold out in two hours. wtf meng? |
| _________________________________ [Oct 29,2011 5:03pm - RustyPS ""] I heard it sold out in 5 minutes or so. I'm trying to find tickets elsewhere now. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 29,2011 5:09pm - KEVORD ""] Didn't they just break up 5 years ago? I fail to see why this is a big deal and why people on Facebook are crying cause it sold out. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 29,2011 5:29pm - Mark_R ""] I think another round of tickets will be released later. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 29,2011 7:37pm - the_reverend ""] This place holds like 2,000 people. should be fine. it's the same stage that have heart's last show was on. bennyhillifier |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 29,2011 7:43pm - bobnomaamrooney ""] Tim from AN: Spittin' out licks, gettin' pissed on by chicks. |
| ____________________________________ [Oct 30,2011 1:32am - RichHorror ""] If you ever cared about any of these bands you're already 3/4 faggot. Minimum. |
| ______________________________ [Oct 30,2011 4:26am - Lamp ""] I'm guessing from Rich Horror's reaction that I was 100% right to never listen to any of these bands even once. |
| ________________________________ [Oct 30,2011 7:25pm - xmikex ""] If I could take a second to remind everyone gusting over this show... Even before legal issues forced AN to change their name they were more than willing to throw hardcore out the window and write cash cow girlfriend hardcore songs. Wes got paid Ted Dibiase money to write lyrics for a top 40 pop punk boy band. The last good album they put out was almost 10 years ago. And when they were still floating around giving up ghosts most of us barely even noticed. But by all means. Hero worship or gtfo... |
| ________________________________ [Oct 30,2011 7:35pm - KEVORD ""] This is basically what I've been saying. I remember them playing their last show at The Palladium upstairs and there wasn't a run on tickets. |
| _________________________________________ [Oct 30,2011 9:13pm - bobnomaamrooney ""] I remember a fat, girlfriend hardcore, ginger retard from Haverhill by the name of Ryan spending his mom's hard earned ebay dollars on a $200 AN hoodie after they changed their name to Give Up the Ghost because all their AN merch was going into the Disney Vault. |
| _________________________________ [Oct 30,2011 10:55pm - KEVORD ""] I remeber the AN hoodies being so popular that the chinese were making bootleg ones. The band should have just made a clothing company like Johnny cupcakes. |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 30,2011 11:28pm - bobnomaamrooney ""] Ginger retard Ryan was also a big fan of Poison the Well and making poorly masked AIM troll accounts to bug me because his girlfriend's friend didn't like me. Dude had a legit vagina. |
| _________________________________ [Oct 30,2011 11:30pm - KEVORD ""] As a former resident of the Merrimack Valley I'm sorry that this faggot Ryan sucked. |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 31,2011 12:12am - bobnomaamrooney ""] It's ok, the highlight of my AIM interactions with him came when he tried to insult me for liking metal by telling me Rammstein sucked. I responded by calling AN the Slipknot of hardcore and surmising that judging by the bands he listened to his hardcore knowledge was about as in depth as his understanding of metal. |

If this is the same thing I'm thinking of (Fall Out Boy?) this was a plagiarism lawsuit, not a hired-gun type thing. bobnomaamrooney said:spending his mom's hard earned ebay dollars on a $200 AN hoodie after they changed their name to Give Up the Ghost because all their AN merch was going into the Disney Vault. These were being printed by some kids in Jersey, if memory serves. One of the AN guys bought one and posted the return shipping address online calling for vigilante justice for the kids ripping everyone off. I found this amusing. |

I also heard from credible sources that there was other material he made legit bank getting paid to write for fall out boy. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 31,2011 10:45pm - goatcatalyst ""] Fuck it. Good for him. I hope he made a princely fortune. American Nightmare was great and the lyrics were killer. Dude was good at something and got paid for it. Can't help who likes your shit. Dudes with hurt feelings and wounded bums be cryin foul. F word J word N words. |

| _______________________________ [Nov 1,2011 9:18am - xmikex ""] Everybody knows AN had great lyrics. If homedude is making money off it then thats really no different from any other writing gig. I'm just saying, this band did quite a few things between the AN demo and the last days of Give up the Ghost that made a lot of their fanbase walk away. Just because they play a reunion show doesn't make me forget. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 1,2011 11:40am - the mex nli ""] Only being in a band with AN fan girls is real. By that I mean booley and I. |

| ________________________________ [Nov 3,2011 10:53pm - Mark_R ""] I would be happy to do this, if I didn't already have plans to be out of town when this happens. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 7,2011 12:07pm - goatcatalyst ""] apparently these faggot tickets are either already gone or never even fucking showed up online. cunting niggers. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 3,2011 11:16pm - Burnsy ""] Someone just showed up at the bar with an American nightmare hoodie. Grey hoodie with college hoodie font. I know nothing of this band but is that one of the aforementioned ripoff hoodies? |
| __________________________________ [Dec 20,2011 12:25pm - oscarct ""] More tix availble me tomorrow. any openers? |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 20,2011 1:11pm - goatcatalyst ""] Already stopped caring. Gonna be SO full of faggots. |

| ____________________________________________________ [Dec 21,2011 1:39pm - RustyPS should be working ""] Got my ticket, I think I got one of the last ones I went back to the order page after ordering mine to post it here, and now, it says no tickets are available |
| ____________________________________________________ [Dec 27,2011 4:39pm - RustyPS should be working ""] Got this e-mail today: "The following is a message from the presenter or promoter regarding the tickets you purchased for: Give Up the Ghost at Wonderland Entertainment Complex on 12/29/11 7:00 PM EST Confirmation #: MH3WKQL2J ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Hey All, This Thursday is the Give Up the Ghost show at Wonderland Complex.

| ____________________________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 9:53am - RustyPS should be working ""] According to Colin's post on B9, there are 4 openers: Salvation COA APMD Blood For Blood Stoked on B4B |
| _____________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 12:12pm - DYA is 12 ""] band single-handedly launched a thousand eBay-ready colored vinyl collections. Utterly forgettable music, words, etc. |
| _________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 12:37pm - xmikex ""] A few notes on this show from a guy who turned down a free ticket: 1. A few months ago everyone in the world was cursing not having a ticket. Now it seems like every other FB post is someone trying to ditch theirs to the point where I guess willcall changes have already been blocked. LOL @ whoever made the supposed $5000 bid for tickets on Ebay. 2. I never planned on going to this show and even I didn't appreciate the uber exclusive secret ticket sales that went on sporadically after the show was supposedly "sold out." There were a couple of instances where a limited amount of tickets were available for sale online. Deathwish announced a "limited" number of tickets on sale at their open house 1 day only. I went with my girlfriend all the way to Beverly and was like the 50th person in line. When she asked one of dudes working there if she thought she had a chance to get tickets he shrugged and said "there's like tons of tickets." For all the people that retained fanatical devotion to this band after all the BS, this whole thing seemed like a pretty aggressive way to dick people around some more to create a false vibe of exclusivity. 3. I went to a HC kid cash dump and a Blood for Blood show broke out. Nice of fake BFB to show up a put a nice "you kids will pay money for anything" gloss on this show. 4. This show went from 2 mystery openers, to 3 mystery openers, to 4 mystery openers none of which were really a mystery. 5. "We are filming the show so no need to compete with us on Youtube when we've already got the layout done on the $39.99 limited edition dvd ready for numerous limited releases." Fixed. |
| _____________________________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 12:46pm - RustyPS should be working ""] I don't know, maybe I'm a hopeless sap, but I've been a huge AN fan since Background Music came out and didn't get a chance to see AN while they were active, so I'm looking forward to this. And call me either an idiot or oblivious, but I don't know much about what the people who booked this show did, nor do I really give a fuck. I'm going to see AN and BFB (whatever BFB incarnation that might be) and could really care less about the "false exclusivity" of this show. It won't affect my enjoyment of the show in the least. |
| _____________________________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 12:46pm - RustyPS should be working ""] ...and if it affects anyone else's enjoyment of the show, then that's their problem, not mine. |
| _________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 12:58pm - xmikex ""] Rusty, I just enjoy lightly drizzling on others' parades. I hope the show rules and it was worth all the pretentious BS. |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 1:03pm - DYA is 12 ""] Band only got traction because Panic broke up at the right time. Just sayin'. |
| ____________________________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 1:05pm - RustyPS should be working ""] I ain't mad, bro Just sayin', if you go to the show, fine, if not, whatever...it's all irrelevant to me, Imma be enjoying myself Side note: While raging against the pretentiousness of this show, your boy sounds just as jaded as Aril talking about video games |
| ____________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 1:05pm - xgodzillax ""] heard its sold out... oh wait, that only works on robin cause unlike his shows, this actually would be able to sell out.. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 1:09pm - the_reverend ""] I heard it sold out in 7 minutes. Hope I'm all set. Heading down when ever. |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 6:17pm - the_reverend ""] AWESOME!!! They set this up really well. They had both other rooms open for people to be in before the doors to the main room were open. Brilliant! |
| _________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 6:41pm - Mark r ""] If I were in town I'd come to look at the scene here just to see it. I imagine it's pretty hectic |

| ________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 7:03pm - KEVORD ""] Prediction: ebay will have a lot of colored vinyl that won't sell on it after this show ends. |
| ________________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 7:09pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] I have the demo tape around somewhere, now would probably be a good time to eBay it. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 7:20pm - the_reverend ""] The crowd for salvation was unimpressed. They were ok, but definitely fell flat with the crowd here. The crowd is waiting for the intense face kicking that they are going to get from the next bands. I predict that the coa set will be the stuff of legends. |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 7:41pm - Mark R forgot password ""] Who is salvation? Are they a metal band? |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 8:14pm - the_reverend ""] COA brought it. A bunch of songs were kind of like "wtf is this song" but still they were more of an offical start to the show. And what is up with 2 guitarists? Weird. There is one picture of colin that is out of focus, but will probably be the front page. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 9:14pm - the_reverend ""] Apmd is more and more sold, but they were sort of a sleeper in between COA and GUTG. Hope con would have fit better, but then again non-bands don't play many shows. |
| ________________________________ [Dec 29,2011 9:24pm - KEVORD ""] Apmd = The Goatwhore of Boston. |
