Okay, so, I was there in the front row at Rock The Ruins that night and I'm SO GLAD you didn't walk off. Forty5, the folks who run the venue, REALLY fucked over ticket holders across the board and aren't above robbing them, either. They added the center stage "VIP" standing room GA corral just this year, which is complete bullshit. It's an additional upcharge, so that's why hardly anyone was there. It was embarrassing, and a shitty cash grab. They also screwed over the folks who paid a premium to sit in the first couple of rows on the right side of the stage, which for some reason got shoved BEHIND all the left side VIP seats. BTW, I paid extra for my seats because I'm old AF and have a broken foot and wanted the option to sit. I ended up standing and dancing the whole time anyway. I'm happy, if my bones aren't. And I'm also SUPER cognizant of my privilege, of being able to actually afford ridiculously-priced tickets to see my favorite band.

I was also at the Murat show in 2018 and it was one of the best days of my entire life. Those two hours and two encores went by SO FAST. I wish I could do it all over again. Thank you SO MUCH for coming back to Indianapolis, and I sincerely hope you will return despite the run of bad luck. We the fans love and appreciate all of you and have nothing whatsoever to do with greedy concert promoters and their hundred different ripoff concert ticket tiers.
