I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".  

Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So it's a good thing that local libraries have subscription season passes.

And how would an out-of-state, er, tourist get one of these?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Hm. Probably by getting a local resident with a library card to hosey the pass for you. Preferably, way far in advance, since weekend days are hugely popular and it tends to be first come, first served in the hoseying department.

(Also I don't think the pass gets you in free any more, only discounted; but I don't know for sure.)

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

July 1 and 2, and it's not sold out yet. Furthermore, if you give me a little bit of time to figure out how it works, I can get you a 20% discount on tickets.

That would be great. I just was trying to find the concert tickets on ticketmaster and it gave me no love at all.

*kicks computer*

I'm taking vacation that week to move, but hopefully I'll be able to take a break at that point for Houston. I will certainly need it at that point.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's available at Ticketmaster, but it's also available through the Jones Hall box office, and you won't get charged fees up the ass like Ticketmaster. Plus, discount. I think you should just be able to give them my name, but I'll let you know once I've figured out the process.

Thanks, Dana. I haven't been to Houston often, but it's not too long a drive, and I'd love to hear this concert.

Hey, Astarte, I'm now acquainted with the woman at the box office, so when you figure out your plans, let me know. You can give me a credit card that I can put the ticket on, or we can work something out, or whatever.

Prices:
$55 - Orchestra A-S, Box Seats, Grand Tier (first balcony, front)
$40 - Orchestra T-FF, Mezzanine (first balcony, rear)
$30 - Balcony (second balcony)

Those do not include the 20% discount or the $2.75 per ticket fee.

Drop me an e-mail at the profile addy.

We need a concert in northern California or the central coast, preferably around Christmas, so I can go visit family and strong-arm them into a concert too. 'Cause the odds of there being a concert anywhere near where I live are one in a very big number.

Thank you, Dana. I'll look at my calendar and post to you as soon as I can.

Squeeeeee!!!!!!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Will ya'll tell me if a Chicago date is added? Because I am so there. If, you know, I'm here.
