I gave a friend my ticket to the sold out Bassnectar NYE show. I'm not really a fan but got one just in case since many of my good friends were going. Basically, one of them didn't get his ticket and while he didn't express it at all, an intuitive friend of mine noticed that he was down about going. I'm out of town for the holidays but the intuitive friend visited me and I send the ticket with him so when he got home, he gave it to the friend that wanted to go and that dude is so happy now. Like that, probably more than anything, has made me happy this christmas. Its been tough since I've accepted I don't have family but I've learned that I have a close-knit circle of friends that might as well be family.
I'm just glad I could make his day. People are trying to get 300+$ per ticket to this sold out show and they're basically coming up with a way to get me the face value considering if I had wanted to, I could've gotten at least a couple hundred bucks for a ticket I only paid 65$ for. I want to just said forget paying me the face value, just enjoy and I probably will end up doing so even though I need the money atm. I'm not in dire need but it would help a lot but I'm just glad I could make his new years special, esp. cause he joined the military and this will probably be his last time to really party up, considering he already quit smoking pot even though he's smoked for 12 years-half of his life up to this point and I'm thinking while he'll probably roll, it will be his last night of having a good time with illegal stuff-after this he'll only be able to consume alcohol.
I hate the holidays.
