Damn. Camden Crawl Tickets.

So, I've been looking forward to the Camden Crawl for awhile now; especially when I found out the Yeah Yeah Yeahs are going to be there on Friday. Seeing as I'm broke, I just wanted to get a Friday ticket for 35 quid [almost 50 bucks], which works out because I have plans on Saturday.
I tried to buy my ticket on two different sites for Friday day tickets, but they wouldn't accept my card because I don't have a UK billing address. There also was NO OPTION for international customers or pick up at box office. I tried to contact them, but it didn't work out.
So it is 8:30 AM here. About a half hour ago I was about to get up and go to the record stores on Bricklane to get my tickets, but didn't remember the names of the shops.
I went on the site and....Friday is SOLD OUT, and tickets are only available at ticketmaster, with a heftly booking fee, or from scalpers at seetickets. DAMNIT.
Two day tickets were still available, so I bought one. NOW, as soon as the day tickets are sold out, there is an otion for international customers and box office pickup. Assholes.
With all the booking fees and whatnot, the price I paid for this ticket was dreadful. 62 QUID. For you non-Uk people, that's about 90 US. That is food for a couple weeks right there. PLUS I have plans on Saturday.
If you would like to snag my Camden Crawl Saturday ticket portion from me, even if I don't know you, please email me at karilangslet@gmail.com.

But I guess, if all else fails, I will be happy [and hungry] that I got to see 150 live bands/artists/comedians...
