Especially considering I'm not particularly a fan of JA, I dislike this entire tour idea. But I'll still be going to the show in 2 weeks.

I know this is still off-topic, but since others are still actively discussing it...

I'm also pretty disappointed by the high ticket prices and the fact that JA is on the bill at all (no offense, JA fans). What I can't wrap my head around, though, is people coming home from the shows exasperated by the setlists, the lineup (NIN playing first) and the minimal lighting. I've read a bunch of reviews where people felt cheated because Closer wasn't played and the lights were lame. Trent announced this months and months ago! Stripped-down tour, minimal lights, varied and obscure setlist. A true fan's wetdream, a casual fan's nightmare.

I intend on thoroughly enjoying the two shows I'm hitting. Maybe I'll even make it all the way through Jane's set.
