• $25 to the general public, I can probably get tickets for a few for $15 with advanced notice (and payment).
  
  Rock and roll show followed by the third most beautiful college girls in the country (as voted by Playboy) drinking and losing their inhibitions.

• Bad setup for a show... in a college gymnasium with 700 uninterested Fairfield kids.  49% waiting for a "Tripping Billies" encore and 49% waiting for some ser techno.  2% rocked out hard.  Sellout encore featuring teases including...
  
  Don\'t Fear the Reaper* > Seven Nation Army > Smooth Criminal > Black Betty
  
  As well as...
  
  - Iron Man
  - In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida
  - Smells Like Teen Spirit
  
  Definitely the "rich white Catholic school" encore, but it was decent.  Worth the $15 + No Driving + Everybody I Know At Fairfield

• "Don\'t Fear the Reaper* > Seven Nation Army > Smooth Criminal > Black Betty", as performed by The Roots???  that seems sick.  I haven\'t seen them since 2001, when they played mostly tracks off thier albums.  It is nice to see them throwing in some honky rock.. QuestLove can keep one hell of a beat, boyeeee...  Fairfield ladies= damn! gots to be something in the water

• They had to play covers.  The sound was so bad that you couldn\'t understand the words at all if you didn\'t already know them...
